- \section GRAS_funct Offered functionnalities
- - <b>Communication facilities</b>: Exchanging messages between peers
- - \ref GRAS_dd: any data which may transit on the network must be
- described beforehand so that GRAS can handle the platform
- heterogeneity and convert them if needed.
- - \ref GRAS_sock: this is how to open a communication channel to
- other processes, and retrive information about them.
- - \ref GRAS_msg: communications are message oriented. You have to
- describe all possible messages and their payload beforehand, and
- can then attach callbacks to the arrival of a given kind of message.
- - <b>Virtualization</b>: Running both on top of the simulator and on
- top of real platforms, and portability support.
- - \ref GRAS_globals: The use of globals is forbidden since the
- "processes" are threads in simulation mode. \n
- This is how to let GRAS handle your globals properly.
- - \ref GRAS_cond: How to declare specific code for the simulation mode
- or for the real mode.
- - \ref GRAS_virtu: You naturally don't want to call the
- gettimeofday(2) function in simulation mode since it would give
- you the time on the host running the simulation, not the time in
- the simulated world (you are belonging to).\n
- This a system call virtualization layer, which also acts as a
- portability layer.

- \section GRAS_todo TODO
- Documentation related:
- - Add an example to the \ref GRAS_msg section, at least
- - Document examples/gras/gras_stub_generator utility and how to deal
- with the fact that programs must have a main in RL and not in SG.
- - Document example/gras/ping as it uses almost all of the GRAS
- features.
-
- Code related: too long to be written here. See the TODO file
