The c--sim from nmcl

Unix man pages in the manual?

May make sense to pull some of the text into the manual.

Timer test blocks on 3000 processes on OS X

Blocks in Hold call. Investigate/

Check tests

Some of the tests have various shell scripts within them. Document their use.

Remove distributions directory.

Remove some files from README_FIRST

Should be in the top-level README.md

Resource.cc: In static member function ‘static void Resource::operator delete(void_)’:
Resource.cc:103:17: warning: deleting ‘void_’ is undefined [enabled by default]
::delete [] memPtr;
Resource.cc: In static member function ‘static void Resource::operator delete(void_)’:
Resource.cc:103:17: warning: deleting ‘void_’ is undefined [enabled by default]
::delete [] memPtr;

Check man pages are still accurate

Variance::confidence not implemented

As with JavaSim ...

nmcl/JavaSim#6

Replace Semaphore example in docs

Rewrite JavaSim examples in C++

#32

No imake for Mac OS X

Seems like it is no longer supported.

OpenShift service

It should be possible to have a deployable service running that allows people to send simulations to be run. May make more sense for this to be JavaSim than C++SIM, but worth thinking about further anyway.

Simulation reset exception or status code needed?

In JavaSim a suspended process is informed that it has been “reset” by having the method it called to originally suspend itself (i.e., place itself on the scheduler queue) raise the RestartSimulation exception, which the object should catch. We don't have that in C++SIM.

Create new manual using asciidoc

Same as we did for JavaSim.

Remove reference to "grind" script in Tests

Queue test references grind script.

TestQueues core dumps

In t.Await somewhere in Self()->Suspend().

Standard template library linked list instead of SimSet?

TerminateTest core dumps

[mlittle@localhost Terminate]$ ./TerminateTest

Creating first process.
Activating first process.
Activating second process.

Creating third process.
Terminating second process.

Tester process holding.
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Update man page dates

They still refer to February 1995.

Problem with getopt

It has moved since last time the Tests were built.

Try gcc on Mac OS X.

Unix man pages up to date?

TestSemaphore blocks but Java version doesn't - check why the difference

Fix warnings when building on OS 10

For example, in Tests:

Compiling TestSemaphore.o
TestSemaphore.cc:63:5: warning: delete called on non-final 'ExponentialStream' that has virtual functions but non-virtual destructor
[-Wdelete-non-virtual-dtor]
delete InterArrivalTime;

Reduce the number of supported platforms

The older versions of C++SIM supported Windows, Solaris, HPUX, Linux etc. (no Mac OS). These days I'm only going to be able to support Linux and maybe Mac OS. Hopefully any community contributors would be able to do other platforms, but for now it makes sense to remove the other OS combinations because I simply cannot even check if the code would build, let alone run!

Create distribution(s)?

Change Overview to README.md

In ClassLib/src

Maybe other examples exist.

Entity.3A manual page needs updating

trigger and isWaiting missing. Added them to the code section but need to add text.

Issues misfiled during migration

Some C++SIM issues that were on Codehaus were migrated across as JavaSim issues and closed incorrectly. Check them out and move them/add them here.

Replace Boolean with bool

There was no bool type when C++SIM was first created. Time to upgrade. It will break backwards compatibility, but we're not checking for that these days anyway.

Remove dependency on imake

Mirror JavaSim doc changes around examples

Section 3 and 5 at least.

Remove old .svn directories and files

Pulled in from import from Codehaus

Rename current doc to TechnicalPaper

It's not a manual so could be confusing.

Remove Windows .cpp include files

Since we no longer support Windows, and the .cpp files were always an intermediate "hack", let's remove them for now. If Windows support is ever added back then do it properly.

Keep up-to-date with JavaSim

Some updates to JavaSim apply equally here.

Add Simulation class to mimic JavaSim?

In the most recent update to JavaSim we added a Simulation class to maintain simulation-specific methods and move them from the Scheduler class. This hasn't been reflected (yet) in C++SIM.
