This release contains numerous fixes to threading library. Unilock (main locking primitive) schedulers are now placed each in a separate file. Current scheduler list includes: default_scheduler, simple_fifo_scheduler, priority_fifo_scheduler, parameterized_scheduler and recursive_scheduler. Schedulers support any kind of lock types, described in form of lock dependence matrices. Read-write and exclusive lock matrices are provided.

First release of libvrpc++, a library for making RPC clients and servers. RPC calls use either binary or XML-based serialization. Calls to remote functors look like local ones. That makes it possible to use RPCs in standard algorithms that require functors like std::for_each().

A major bug in mage::threads::unilock dealing with parameterized lock scheduler has been fixed in this release.

libcwd support has been removed, therefore libcwdhelper is no longer needed and will not be supported anymore. libcwd and libcwdhelper have been also removed from libMAGE requirements.

libMAGE API reference and HTML version of libMAGE user's manual are now online. Have fun! :)

After couple of days the first version of libMAGE project site is here. :) It uses Smarty template engine and PHP. All CSS styles use colors and fonts of your desktop — so if you see something what looks bad these are the settings of your desktop, or buggy browser (that is more usual). We strongly recommend to use a browser with a good CSS2 support: Konqueror, Mozilla or Opera. According to our tests these browsers render the content of this site more or less correctly.

We'll work hard to add more content to this site in the near future...
