Timing is Everything – Especially in Multi-Threaded Apps
Today was spent getting the timing of events finished up. Yesterday, I took a lot of time getting the shutdown working, and then I had to make the movement of messages work. It's pretty funny to look at the code in retrospect - I had just assumed that things would be there when I needed them, and in my development case with hard-coded values, it was. But making it work with the actual timing of events was a lot harder than I had thought.
Basically another day spent on getting the start-up and shutdown right for all the components of the system. Ick.
