Commence the Porting

After a month of research and getting used to the Gateware environment, I've finally been tasked to start working in the new architecture. My first job has been to write unit tests for some of the existing libraries for the new system, I chose to go with GThreadShared. This library is a wrapper for mutex and SRWLocks which allow the user to lock and unlock either read or write critical sections. The first couple tests written are just battery tests to make sure inheritance is working as expected, the second set of tests will be testing the functionality of the locking mechanisms. If all goes well over the next few days, I might be honored with the task to write the unit tests for multi-threading libraries that the Gateware developers will be using for their libraries.
