Correct. > 1. do you use any global/static objects with constructors? did you have > to write any code to call on those constructors when the module is loaded? Not sure about this one. But AFAIK, there are no global static objects with constructors in Click code. There is one router object that is always initialized and it is updated by writing to the clickfs file system. The other objects are created with new. > 2. did you have to write any other run-time support code or platform > glue code (besides new/delete)? Apart from the new and delete, I think the other things were the pseudofs code to initialize the file system, the locks in include/click/sync.hh, the glue code in atomic.hh. > 3. I assume virtual inheritance can be used in kernel code? do you use it? Yes. For example, all objects inherit from "Element" and that defines virtual functions. (include/click/element.hh) Hope this helps.
