SimGrid (3.13) UNRELEASED; urgency=low
- The Easter Trim Release.
-
+ The Half Release, aka the Zeleous Easter Trim.
+
+ - We removed half of the lines, that were mostly experimental cruft.
+ v3.12 lasted 286000 lines of code, v3.13 is only 142000 lines
+ (not counting blanks and comments -- according to openhub.net)
+ - The internals are now compiled in C++ (and will soon be clean C++)
+ - We removed 75 klines of XML, 12 klines of Java, 5 klines of cmake,
+ 59 klines of C, etc. We added only 29 klines of C++ in replacement.
+
* Backwards Compatibility breaks
- Removed Lua simulation bindings (switch to C or Java for that).
Lua can still be used to describe platforms
MSG_host_* and SD_workstation_* are #define to the sg_host_* ones
MSG
+ * The examples were completely reorganized, for your browsing pleasure.
* Kill all deprecated functions (the ones you had when declaring MSG_DEPRECATED).
They were deprecated since a few years, and probably did not even compile anymore.
