General interest features previously found in libCERTI
may now be found in libHLA:

- MessageBuffer
- multi-platform Semaphore/SHM
- TLSF allocator (Unix-only) not used yet but this will come
- SHA-1 a cryptographic hash
- MurmurHash2A : a [very] fast non cryptographic hash
- Clock classes : for measuring time

The move may be considered over.
Next time we have to introduce such "basic" features into
CERTI we will have to decide "from the beginning" if they
have to be in libCERTI or libHLA.

(still working on the MessageBuffer move)

I may be a great fan of boost too, there are
*A LOT OF* valuable thing in it. Moreover
it's a kind of backdoor for standard C++ lib.

However I know that taking boost in will bring in a
somehow "big" dependency.

For now I'd rather not make boost usage mandatory for CERTI.

My main issue is the fact that we want to be able to produce
a CERTI version with minimal memory (and complexity) footprint,
this is doable with base STL classes and our own code.
Bringing in boost would make this far much difficult.

What we can try is to put in some "optional" support
for using boost in libHLA and once we are sure
that the dependency is ready for prime time we can make it
mainstream.

In fact having boost dependency for libHLA only is not
a big deal but since libCERTI / RTIA / RTIG are (or will)
depend on libHLA then comes the trouble.

Just commited the Clock move.
I hope this is not making too much "noise" for your
library versioning patch.

I'm becoming a fan of boost, so just a little advertisement. What is your opinion on boost? Some of the functions may already be implemented there.

I'm resuming this task
and will begin to add:
  - Clock and subclasses
  - Hash functions (SHA1 and probably MurmurHash)
  - Possibly basic portable element like
    SHM and Semaphore base classes.

CERTI 3.3.2 will be the first Release with libHLA.
I keep the task open because we may add more things
in libHLA and/or migrate some from libCERTI to libHLA
(MessageBuffer, Clock classes and Sub-Classes, ...)

I have added libHLA to mainstream CERTI in CVS
i.e.
just added ADD_SUBDIRECTORY(libHLA) in CMakeLists.txt
and fix a compiler warning for HLAbuffer.hh
(missing header)

I'll do more work on packaging may be using
CMake component
http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake:Component_Install_With_CPack
in order to ease the installation of libHLA only.

Source files added. I also added a draft CMakeFiles.txt, but the top-level CMakeFile.txt is left untouched.

For the first try I'd rather go
for a flat "all source files in one directory" approach.

We may go for a hierarchical layout later on
but since certi@Savannah use CVS
we cannot easily rename or delete directory.

CVS does not handle "directory" as first class
configuration object thus
I'd rather begin with flat layout.

Eric, quick question:
should all .cpp and .h go directly into this directory, or do you prefer more hierarchical structure (e.g. one directory per functionality, or src/include)?

Hi Petr,

I did create the certi/libHLA directory
however I lack time before my holidays (thursday, 17th of July)
to setup appropriate CMakeLists.txt etc...

I will do this on my return from holidays (10th of August)
however if you want to add version controlled source files
in the directory please do so. I'll add them to the lib
when doing it.
