uMundo is a lightweight refactoring of the Mundo publish/subscribe middleware to deliver byte arrays and objects on channels from publishers to subscribers. With lightweight, we do not necessarily refer to runtime behavior or memory footprint (though we work hard to keep it sane) but to the amount of code we have to maintain in order to arrive at a working system. It runs on Windows, Linux, Mac OSX, iOS devices and Android.
uMundo is distributed under the Simplified BSD license.
uMundo is divided into four components with different responsibilities in various stages of maturity:
- Stefan Radomski radomski@tk.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de
- Daniel Schreiber schreiber@tk.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de
- Felix Heinrichs felix.heinrichs@cs.tu-darmstadt.de
The authority on the state of uMundo is our build-server. The tests, while not numerous, are rather strict as there are plenty of asserts in the source code. Overall, uMundo is not yet suited for serious deployments, there are still some memory leaks and discovery is still somewhat flakey, especially with the embedded mDNS server on Android.
<tr><td>iOS 5.x</td><td>
<ul>
<li>umundo.s11n uses the C++ generator as with Mac OSX.
<li>The automated test are not executed on the build-server.
</ul>
</td></tr>
<tr><td>Windows 7</td><td>
<ul>
<li>Everything builds and runs just fine with MS Visual Compiler and Visual Studio 10 and NMake.
<li>We do not support MinGW as we would need precompiled libraries for our build-time dependencies.
</ul>
</td></tr>
<tr><td>Debian Linux 6.0.4</td><td>
<ul>
<li>Everything builds and runs just fine with GCC.
</ul>
</td></tr>
<tr><td>Android 4.x</td><td>
<ul>
<li>Worked whenever we tried, but we cannot automatically test on the simulator, as <a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/devices/emulator.html#emulatornetworking">google does not deem multicast to be important</a>.
<li>The automated test are not executed on the build-server.
