Centreon Broker 20.04¶

Enhancements¶

Removal of Qt¶

Broker does not need Qt anymore.

Lua¶

New function to decode a Json string into a Lua table.

Json¶

Switch from Xml config to Json. We used json11 toolkit, and remove all ref for yajl from sources.

Network¶

Switch from QtNetwork to Asio. We start an effort to avoir copy in network buffers.

Optimization¶

Migration of the code to C++11.

Better tests Coverage¶

We now have 370+ tests (+280%). It allow us to have a better code coverage of the code base.

Stream connector¶

The stream connector is now asynchronous. If it has to execute a script that is too slow, it won’t slow down Broker. Broker will just return messages complaining about the slowness of the script.

Another change, now when a stream connector crashes, Broker does not terminate but just returns an error message containing the Lua interpreter error.
