ANNOUNCE: libmsgque 2.4
Andreas Otto
What it is
==========
The libmsgque project is an infrastructure for linking applications together
to act like a single application. This is done using unix or inet domain
sockets. The framework handles all aspects of setting up and maintaining
the link:
* starting and stopping the different applications,
* starting and stopping the communication interface,
* sending and receiving packages,
* reading and writing data from or into packages,
* setting up and maintaining the event handling for
asynchronous transfers, and
* propagating warnings or errors.
What is new
===========
The new release (2.4) adds the following features:
* add the port of libmsgque to windows (win32)
* add the port of libmsgque to processors with alignment
restrictions (sparc)
* add support for new acmd tools:
- astarter to add the UNIX x(inetd) capability to default users
(including windows users)
- aexec to do remote execution using libmsgque protocol
* some bug fixes and a lot of code/test-case cleanup
