TODO: * Ensure that we can have our 'non-threaded' thread be any thread. * Turn off the global 'fast_calls' variable, to knobble old stubs, and go with the new ABI. * Cross thread Object references + I think the way to fix this is by using a different interface->adaptor_type: ORBIT_ADAPTOR_POA_THREADED, such that the fast case will always drop through to small_invoke_stub_n, where we can get far more creative. * Threading + GIOPMessageQueueEntry needs to hold a cnx ref. + orb->current_invocations needs to be per-thread ... also, we should push a stack-data pointer. + Need to emit 'broken' connection - via the listen/unlisten stuff in the main thread ... [ and garentee the same invariants as previously ? cnx status etc. ? ] + Create a per-object policy 'PROCESS_REENTERANTLY', using our VPVID space; takes a boolean ... set it on the object ... [ make some libbonobo wrappers to improve the situation ] + CORBA_Object_non_existant - needs to do a blocking check for CONNECTED / DISCONNETED. + bin redundant forwards in poa.c + giop_recv_thread_fn - more work needed + ** ERROR **: Need to handle zapped cnx' async callbacks * User friendliness + tolerate NULL CORBA_Environments in stubs + 'sequence from GList' API. + always return initialized memory on exception + add an X like 'event' processing API for incoming bits (?) * GIOP fragments / + need to handle a cancel request in the middle of a fragment stream * It seems the local case optimization can go wrong when invoking bogus methods from a different interface on an Object ref. + this is to do with a) not checking the vepv offset we get b) not expanding the lookup of the vepv offset at all. * Thread safety + For independent clients, we need some way to arbitrate the giop_recv_buffer_get method - so that either: a single thread does the poll and the rest block, or we all poll. + apparently g_object_ref / unref are not thread safe we need linc_object_ref / unref instead that does a LINC_MUTEX_LOCK on the global object lifecycle lock that needs to move into linc ... sigh ! + we need to ensure that linc does no signal emissions, since these are horribly slow and again not safe. * Optimization + we need 2 de-marshalling routines, 1 with (slow) byteswap and 1 without it, save scads and scads of branch cache misses; easy to do too; make it a virtual method on the recv buffer (?) [ for easy chaining ] + we need some concept of align == native align flagged on TypeCodes, so we can blat things quickly with memcpy in a generic way - eg. sequences of octets. + we need to implement 'wait for completion' on shutdown so that we can activate async unrefs in bonobo. * Dragons: + giop_recv_buffer.c (giop_connection_handle_input) manages to go through the error condition a whole load; _why_ is this ? - is it a recursive effect on the method ? why are we called if there is no data ? + We need a typecast in an _allocbuf which we know is aliased, eg. PortableServer_POAList_allocbuf, since it gets assigned to a CORBA_Object *, and the cast is bogus.
