    I'm new to open-dis. Does open-dis support DIS version 7 or are their plans to support it?

    I've got a Java, C++, C#, and Objective-C implementation of DIS 7 in the svn repository.

    Open-DIS works by parsing an XML file that describes the protocol (the PDUs, fields, field types, and so on) and generating the language code (Java, C++, etc.)

    The XML file I used for the DIS 7 implementation is based off an older draft of the standard, and I haven't gone back and checked for changes between the draft and final standard. It's probably OK for the most common PDUs, but it would be a good idea to bounce it against the final standard.

    Thanks for the info. Good to hear that you have at least partially addressed DIS 7. I'll check into the code. I'm still trying to get a copy of the final standard.

    Thanks for your reply. Its not urgent to move to DIS 7. I can wait for your upgrade.

    Thanks,
