Roadmap

Wallaroo Roadmap

The following gives an outline of some of the features which are envisaged, post Wallaroo 0.6

Features

• Add an option to use a non-intrusive mechanism at least for the creation mechanism.
• Check of the associations cardinality / optional associations done in v. 0.3
• Loading the classes from a dynamic loaded library (.dll or .so) done in v. 0.4
• (Optionally) using C++11 in the API done in v. 0.2

Improvements

• Improve or change the device/plug metaphor. done in v. 0.7
• Remove the boost dependencies for C++0x compilers (i.e.: don't rely on boost for XML and JSON parsing)?
• Separate the creation mechanism from the Catalog class?
• Consider to pass the constructor parameters in another way. Maybe with a generic set property method or with a properties bag passed in the ctor. done in v. 0.6
• I definitely don't like MultiplePlug. Above all, I don't like MultiplePlug deriving from std::list. solved in v. 0.2
• Improve (or change) the syntax of the xml loading file. done in v. 0.3

Documentation and Samples

• More documentation: tutorial page and API documentation.
• More exhaustive samples done in v. 0.3
