I'm picking this one up again. I actually overlooked this bug report. I'll try
to apply the patches on 1.x/2.0 lines and see what it gives... Worth doing ?

Yes, worth doing IMHO. I've been using this for quite some time, and have had no issues on macosx nor gnulinux.
I did start trying to extend the type plugin to support use of rt-strings in scripts and state machines, but hit some parser issues that I didn't solve (string had precedence over rt-string, IIRC). I will return to this soon.
You might check out my release-rtt-rtalloc branch on github, as it has the latest patches (including dealing with some boost v1.42 madness)

RTT will adopt boost::po as well to parse some command line options, so your
code
could migrate to RTT::os to setup TLSF. Same thing can be said for setting up
the RTT log levels btw.

I see no problem at all. You got to do what you got to do. Looks clean to me.

Good. How do you intend to integrate boost::po into RTT? Is the
deployer moving into RTT, as you've previously mentioned might happen?

Ok, will provide full patch shortly.
Also, I think this overall approach will result in less OCL code in
the long run, as we can get rid of nearly all of deployer-funcs by
using some other boost::po functionality instead of our custom code.
I'll look at it another time ...

RTT won't include components, it remains a library. It will use the
boost::po to interprete the arguments that go into ORO_main(). If you
were referring to the plugin loading code moving into RTT, that's more
for OS abstraction purposes than application functionality as in
'deployer'.

Do you have an idea on which boost version you're depending for all this ?
Thanks for keeping all this in bug reports, there would be no way of
tracking your stream of patches otherwise :-)

Hence the "zoo" of tests earlier. Hardy is 1.34.1, SL is 1.40.0, and
Koala is 1.40.0. I figured if I bracketed these, then I was probably
in pretty good shape. Any others you can think of for first-round
testing? Didn't Ruben offer to do all testing for the wonderful
Debian ... or was it another adjective besides "wonderful" ... ;-)

I am _trying_ to make it easy for you, so that this stuff doesn't end
up just in my own repo! Smack me if it becomes hard for you ... :-)

What is this "Debian" you speak of ;), we are currently setting up a
build farm, to test builds on all kinds of platforms. Just a matter of
time to set up the configuration matrix.

Sample deployer modifications to support memory allocation size on command line
I'm looking for feedback on the following, before proposing a complete patch
that modifies all deployers:
- Does this overall approach work with the intent to embed TLSF into RTT?
- Is the custom type in deployer_funcs.hpp acceptable? This is the only way
that I could find to use boost's custom validators, to allow memory size to be
specified as, for example, 10240, 4k, 32M, etc. It also means we aren't passing
yet another parameter into deployerParseCmdLine(), and are instead using the
functionality already provided by boost::program_options.
