Hi!
I have created an FL 0.70 preview (32 bit linux only), which can be
downloaded from
http://web.interware.hu/fl/fl_0.70pre1-i686-linux.tar.gz
FL 0.70 is the first step towards Distributed FL. FL 0.70 can be started
as a TCP/IP daemon, waiting for requests from other hosts (masters) and
working for them as a slave. Initially, a slave is an exact copy of the
master, including heap data (pointers, objects). File transfer is built in
into the communication protocol, so no common file system is needed for
file I/O. Slaves can create graphics on the master's display, if they are
allowed to connect to the display (this usually requires xhost +...).
The user interface is a simple DFL_SLAVE object, with methods:
- GETVAR/SETVAR (data exchange)
- EXECUTE (code execution)
- OUTPUT (terminal output fetching)
- STATUS (status reporting)
Minimal documentation is available at:
http://web.interware.hu/fl/DFL.html
Suggestions and comments are welcome!
Enjoy!
regards,
lajos
