Re: [simspark-devel] A new server release?!

[Hedayat V. <hed...@ai...>]

Hi Yuan and Joschka,
Yes, I did. As Yuan said, it uses barrier for synchronization. Also, it 
calls EndCycle functions in the main thread since they are not thread 
safe currently. (The main issues are RenderControl EndCycle function 
which must be called in the main thread (or maybe it is possible to 
completely move ALL gl function calls into the separate thread) and it 
crashes otherwise; and FRP which calls dJointGetFeedback() and 
dJointSetFeedback() ODE functions). The implementation is in 
SimulationServer::RunMultithreaded and SimulationServer::SimControlThread.

Good luck,
Hedayat
