DITP status

DITP was designed early, together with IDR. Since IDR is now operational and ready for throughout testing, DITP could be implemented and tested.

DITP core is very trivial and easy to implement and a first prototype is already operational. This gave the opportunity to test readabilty and lightness of the IDR API which needed some refinements.

This also allowed me to check what is needed to build a server and client objects which of course have to be made as simple as possible.

A critical and time consuming task was adding garbage collector support into C++. I'll discuss the C++ and GC issue in another post. I used libgc v6.8 and managed yesterday to get a running client server prototype with full reliance on the GC and showing no memory leaks. Since the client and server may host live objects, they have to support multithreading.

So far, so good! ... as said a guy at each storey when falling from a building.
