What else? Besides the implementations of Gateway and Mutex, EventSemaphores are probably going to need some help from timers and signals, and you may find we need to implement those first. Which of course is based on Analysis and Design work in those areas. > What guide(s) should I follow when writing a test driver? Really something that could be considered a unit test (each interface being somehow excercised is the goal). > In the implementation I saw SemaphoreCommon but not in the diagram? Any > explanation? Yes, I was getting to the point that the SemaphoreCommon was much needed because of the "shared" requirement between address space hole. Now that it is done, I can update the diagrams, unless that is something you want to do to get used to the tools. > Oops.....I ask too much...better stop here... :-) No, I would rather you keep asking questions. It will get you up to speed faster. I have alot I can say on any facet of the library that doesn't always come out in the current documentation. > > > > > I don't think we have the boundry for the universe of discourse defined > > yet :) > > > > I'd rather leave it open.... > > > > > -- > > Frank V.
