- XBT:
- * New module: cunit (my jUnit implementation in ansi C) [MQ]
- - Test units are placed directly into the library code, they get extracted
- automatically and placed into the src/testall binary.
- - Convert most of the XBT tests to this system.
- * New functions: xbt_dynar_getfirst_as() and xbt_dynar_getlast_as() [MQ]
- * XML parsing: rewrote parts of flexml to enable multiple xml parsers to
- live in the same C code. This required to change a little bit the API
- of surfxml parsing but shouldn't be an issue for end-users. [AL]
- * New module: sparse graph structure with basic algorithms. [AL]
- * Display more information on backtraces: source line & function names are
- now displayed just like valgrind does (rely on addr2line tool) [MQ]
- * New function: xbt_display_backtrace(). Sweet while debuging [MQ]

SURF:
* complete rewrote of the KCCFLN05 workstation model. It is now an
extension of the classical CLM03 model that gracefully handles
- failures. This is now the standard model for MSG and GRAS. [AL]
+ failures. This is now the standard model for MSG and GRAS. It doesn't
+ handle parallel tasks yet though. [AL]
+ * Bug fix: Weights were not correctly set in the network part.
+ WARNING: This may have resulted in incorrect results with simulations
+ where there are more than one flow on a given link. [AL]
+
+ SURF, MSG, GRAS:
+ * After a (long ?) discussion on simgrid-devel, we have decided that the
+ convention we had on units was stupid. That is why it has been decided
+ to move from (MBits, MFlops, seconds) fo (Bits, Flops, seconds).
+ WARNING : This means that all previous platform files will not work as
+ such with this version! A warning is issued to ask users to update
+ their files. [AL]
+ A conversion script can be found in the contrib module of the CVS, under
+ the name contrib/platform_generation/surfxml_update.pl [MQ]
MSG,GRAS:
* Bug fix: Processes were started in reverse order, wrt deployment file.
WARNING: if your code relies on this bug, please fix it. [AL]
* Bug fix: Add a test in MSG_task_execute to stop whenever a task is
being executed on two different locations. [AL]
+ * Bug fix: Failures are now better supported thanks to Derrick's tests
+ (there was many failure situations I hadn't thought of and that weren't
+ correctly handled). [AL]
+ * New function: MSG_host_is_avail indicates you whether a given m_host_t
+ is up or down.
GRAS:
* New! a real RPC mecanism, as it ought to be since too long. [MQ]
int my_handler(gras_msg_cb_ctx_t ctx , void *payload_data) {
gras_socket_t expeditor=gras_msg_cb_ctx_from(ctx);
and you're set.
+ * New! function: gras_msg_handleall to deal with all messages arriving
+ within a given period.
AMOK:
* Bandwidth module:
- Do not force experiment sizes to be expressed in kb, or it becomes
impossible to mesure the latency this way (needs one byte-long tests)
- WARNING: this changes the amok_bw_* function semantic.
+ WARNING: this changes the amok_bw_* function semantic. [MQ]
+ - Implements the link saturation stuff. [MQ]
+ * Host management module:
+ New! module factorizing code that we wrote over and over [MQ].
+ XBT:
+ * New module: cunit (my jUnit implementation in ansi C) [MQ]
+ - Test units are placed directly into the library code, they get extracted
+ automatically and placed into the src/testall binary.

+ * New module: sparse graph structure with basic algorithms (this is work
+ in progress and the API is not considered to be frozen yet). [AL]
+ * Display more information on backtraces: source line & function names are
+ now displayed just like valgrind does (rely on addr2line tool) [MQ]
+ * New function: xbt_backtrace_display(). Sweet while debuging [MQ]
+ * Reworked a little bit some #include statements to load only required
+ headers. Some user code that relied on SimGrid to include stdlib or
+ stdio may need to include it by themselves. [AL]
+ * Fixed xbt/log.h. A missing SG_BEGIN_DECL prevented compilation with
+ g++. [AL]
