This complete release of the software incorporates all previous
patches. It also fixes some bugs which have been detected.
There is a new scheduler list implementation provided in this release
(the HashedList), and its performance can be evaluated by looking at
the graph in the postscript file Tests/Queues/results.ps. An updated
version of the Calendar is also in this release.
All of the thread classes now have a print routine which displays some
useful information. Two more thread classes are available, one for
Solaris threads, and the other for Posix threads. However, although
support for them is included here in the configuration scripts, the
actual code is not: at present this will be released on a per request
basis. If a lot of people request them then they will appear in a
later patch.
There's a new reset routine provided for restarting simulation
runs. An example of its use can be found in Examples/Restart. Although
support for this will continue, other mechanisms will probably be
released later. Each Process can now define a reset function which is
automatically called when a reset occurs; what this does is
implementation specific.
The SimSet routines have had a Linkage class added.
