- <LI><P>The copy-on-write semantics has been supported for a
- while now.
+ <LI><P>The consumer/supplier control can be controlled better, interval
+ and timeout can be configured.

</LI>
- <LI><P>The event service library has been divided in several
- smaller libraries, so applications only link the required
- components.
- The base code for the Event Service is located in the
- <CODE>TAO_RTEvent</CODE> library.
- <CODE>TAO_RTOLDEvent</CODE> contains the old implementation
- for the real-time Event Service,
- in addition to this the <CODE>TAO_RTSchedEvent</CODE>
- contains the components that will support scheduling in the
- new Event Service.
- This means that applications using only the
- <CODE>TAO_RTEvent</CODE> library do not need to link the
- scheduling service.
