Dear all, Attend the DIET Special Event at SC'11 with ... the new release of DIET DIET 'SC11' Release 2.8 and tools are now available on the DIET Web Site: http://graal.ens-lyon.fr/DIET/download.html Visit INRIA booth #127 and SysFera booth #4211 at SC'11 1. What's new in DIET 'SC11' 2.8 ? ------------------------------------------------ * Features: - New forwarders: they do not need a configuration file anymore, and they can be started at any time. - CORBA calls are more robust: Two handlers for communication failures and transient exceptions have been added. - a new tool has been introduced: dietObjects. It mimics the behavior of nameclt, but restricted to DIET CORBA objects. - dietObjects also shows which object is managed by which forwarder (or through which forwarder an object is accessible). * Compilation - DIET now requires Boost to compile. - removed dependency towards libuuid, we now use Boost UUID instead - endianness is now managed with Boost - replaced usage of fnmatch by boost:regex - intermediary libraries are not installed anymore * Source code organization: - we now use a modified version of cpplint (http://google-styleguide.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/cpplint/cpplint.py) for checking our code against our coding standards. - we removed all deprecated code and documentation: - JXTA: was used to build a multi-MA hierarchy using a P2P approach - DTM: the former data manager - JUXMEM: was a P2P data manager used in conjunction with DTM - FD: fault detector - FAST: performance evaluation plugin - TAU: a code profiler - old CVS headers have been removed and replaced by Doxygen headers - move FWorkflow.dtd from /etc to /usr/share/diet since it's application data (accordingly to FHS) * List of available packages - Debian 'Sid' - Fedora 16 - Fedora 15 * Bug Fix: - Forwarders now unregister themselves from omniNames when they are shut down properly. - Forwarders can be launched after any DIET element - To avoid problems when a file managed by DAGDA is modified outside DAGDA, we know compute the files sizes before any transfer. - Let CMake manage rpath. Thus, you need to explicitly set your LD_LIBRARY_PATH or DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH variable. 2. What's new in LogServices 'SC11' 2.8 ? ----------------------------------------------------------- * Features: - New forwarders: they do not need a configuration file anymore, and they can be started at any time. - CORBA calls are more robust: Two handlers for communication failures and transient exceptions have been added. * Source code organization: - we now use a modified version of cpplint (http://google-styleguide.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/cpplint/cpplint.py) for checking our code against our coding standards. * List of available packages - Debian 'Sid' - Fedora 16 - Fedora 15 * Bug Fix: - Forwarders now unregister themselves from omniNames when they are shut down properly. - Forwarders can be launched after LogCentral or a tool. - Let CMake handle rpath Enjoy Eddy ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Eddy Caron.
