6822a9e2fb DOC: reorganise the Doxygen configuration and structure
- upgrade the configuration to a current version
- provide a frontpage with cross-links to other documentation
- define a set of modules; relevant classes and files can be
  added to these, to create a exploration path for new readers
- fix a lot of errors in documentation comments
- use a custom configuration for the documentation pages
- tweak the navigation, the sections and further arrangements

974c670d41 fix **** in doxygen comments
to make them stand out more prominently, some entity comments
where started with a line of starts. Unfortunately, doxygen
(and javadoc) only recogise comments which are started exactly
with /**

This caused quite some comments to be ignored by doxygen.
Credits to Hendrik Boom for spotting this problem!

A workaround is to end the line of stars with *//**

a344604f1b Clang(#928): adjustments regarding scope and visibility
Clang doesn't allow to declare a private nested class as friend.
This is unfortunate, but likely correct to the letter of the standard.

As a workaround, now we're creating the instances within a static
function of DependencyFactory -- in the end this improves readability


A second issue fixed with this changeset is the scope of the
marker function. Clang is right, this isn't ADL, thus an inline
friend definition is simply not visible outside the class.

0ea37402d2 Ticket #934: switch entire code-base to use the new Singleton factory
lib::Depend<TY>  works as drop-in replacement for lib::Singleton<TY>

This changeset removes the convoluted special cases like
SingletonSub and MockInjector.

cb80d4001a Clang(#928): refactor OutputSlot implementation to resolve a scoping problem
Clang is more insistent when it comes to enforcing 'protected' visibility.
Since in this case the basic design can be considered sane and optimal, the
only (and obvious) solution is to nest the PIMPL into a default base class
for implementation; this mirrors the structure of the interface.

77066ee3ce WIP: how to start the actual calculation streams within EngineService
this draft fills in the structure how to get from an invocation
of the engine service to the starting of actual CalcStream instances.

Basically the EngineService implementation is repsonsile to
instruct the Segmentation to provide a suitable Dispatcher.

18605b0c19 handling of real time start offset
decision: the base for any deadline calculations
is the expected real time corresponding to the grid origin.
This value is contained in the Timings record.
2013-01-12 08:36:35 +01:00
72e5557d1e locate the real time / nominal within engine::TimeAnchor
this clarifies the relation of TimeAnchor and Timings,
the latter act as a general spec and abstracted grid,
while the latter actually performs the conversion and
deadline checking

4ede0453be resolve the remaining liblumieracommon.so dependency problems
now this library doesn't refer to any symbols from
Proc-Layer anymore. Resolving these problems
highlighted IMHO a serious shortcomming of our
interface system, which hinders the building
of abstractions at interface level

384ee68129 allow simple query-for-pipe again (revert)
while refactoring, I thought it might be a good idea
only to use Query objects. But in this special case,
most often you'd just want to pass in a simple query
with a literal query string. So this convenience shortcut
indeed makes sense.

016a739a5c WIP back to the original problem: how to dispatch jobs...
brainstorming how to implement the job planning stage

the idea is to built on top of the IterExplorer,
but have the "stack" of re-evaluation integrated
into a custom type, which exploits the static
node network structure to avoid heap allocations

solution idea: again use a builder function?
