The transition away from NML and towards remote realtime operations will require several steps, one key step being remote operations of HAL (G)UI's, which is currently not possible.
I have created a document describing the HAL remote component protocol design, overview, and specification based on zeroMQ sockets and protobuf messages. This feature should be enough to build remote standalone HAL UI's: http://static.mah.priv.at/public/wip/html/wip/halrcomp.html For the complete transition including NML replacement several more specifications in a similar style will be forthcoming, including HALgroups remote status sampling, queued command/response interaction, and the ticket lifecycle (command identification and completion tracking replacing the broken serial number mechanism). I publish this early to introduce the methods and style, and I'd be glad to hear any comments on this document. - Michael ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ November Webinars for C, C++, Fortran Developers Accelerate application performance with scalable programming models.
