Description-en: Development files for BLCR
BLCR (Berkeley Lab Checkpoint/Restart) allows programs running on
Linux to be "checkpointed" (written entirely to a file), and then
later "restarted".
.
BLCR can checkpoint both single- and multithreaded (pthreads)
programs linked with the NPTL implementation of pthreads. BLCR is
also able to save and restore groups of related processes together
with the pipes that connect them.
.
BLCR can checkpoint and restore (most) un-modified programs,
however BLCR aware applications can customise this process
further.
.
This package contains headers and files needed to compile
applications that work with BLCR.
