Q: What has changed from version 1.7.0 to 1.7.1
A:

Feature Summary

The 1.7.1 release of LDAS was tagged in CVS on August 4, 2005. This version was narrowly focused on two issues. The first was on "zombie" threads seen in the datacondAPI. The second was the "All User Command" submitting jobs as mlei. Each of these issues have been addressed in this release along with a compilation issue of frameCPP when not using the STLport library. Also, the installation documentation has been modified to descibe using the lam RPM for Fedora Core 3 instead of needing to build from source for Fedora Core 3.

Summary by API

Control and Monitor

The all user command now runs as the login user of the cmonClient.

frameCPP

The file src/Common/MD5Sum.hh now includes <stdexcept> which prevents a compilation issue seen when not compiling with the STLport library.

genericAPI

A race condition in setting a thread's state was fixed by use of a mutes. This prevents zombies for the state will never be reverted to a prior state.
