2. Should ITC support be added to STDCXX?
There is one issue here which needs paying attention to. Is it desirable
to have stdcxx integrated with the rest of SourcePro (which already
supports ITC)? I think the answer is yes -- please correct me if I am
wrong.
Or with any other product that wants to use the ITC. This sounds
like a pretty convincing argument to me, assuming the ITC is a
useful tool, of course.
ITC support is not going to altering stdcxx code. We will merely make
ITC aware of the synchronization constructs in stdcxx so that it will
take them into account. This involves a few guards around a [very] few
selected places in stdcxx.
If we put it in we'll need to test it to make sure it works right
and that it doesn't get broken in the process of making changes
so we should also enhance the test harness as well.
