		451	`a part of the TOOLSET alias AND is also member of the DEVLINUX alias.`
		452	`It could also have been written as:`
		453	`PackageFile ('--Alias=TOOLSET',--Alias=DEVLINUX', ...)`
		454	`but NOT as:`
		455	`PackageFile ('--Alias=TOOLSET:DEVLINUX', ...)`

		2425	`Debug information is created for both production and debug builds`
		2426	`Debug information is placed in a .dbg file, which is linked to the`
		2427	`executable, or shared library. The .dbg file is packaged in the manner`
		2428	`as the main binary.`
		2429
		2430	`This methodology does not bloat the binary with debug information, while`
		2431	`retaining debug information. The binary transferred to an embedded`

		3121	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		3122	`Major changes:`
		3123	`* New Utility: upddep - Update Dependencies`
		3124	`This utility will update the dependencies in a build.pl file to be`
		3125	`consistent with those of a given Release Manager Release. This simplifies`
		3126	`the operation of maintain build files during development.`
		3127
		3128	`It will create an 'auto.pl' file, which JATS uses in preference to a`
		3129	`build.pl file. DO NOT check this file in.`
		3130
		3131	`See: 'jats upddep -help' - For brief help`
		3132	`'jats upddep -man' - For full manual`
		3133

		3137	`jats upddep -rtag=6684`
		3138
		3139	`* MicroTec Compiler toolset`
		3140	`When creating a ShardLibrary (THX) report missing libraries before`
		3141	`compiling the objects that go into the THX.`
		3142
		3143	`This ensures that the error messages the describe the missing library`
		3144	`can be seen and are not masked by the building of the objects.`
		3145
		3146	`Minor changes:`

		3156	`* Makefile directive helper function: If`
		3157	`Used within another directive to enable or disable arguments passed to the`
		3158	`outer directive. The first argument is a 'platform' specifier - as in`
		3159	`all Jats Make directives. If making for the specified platform, then the`
		3160	`remainder of the arguments are inserted into the directives argument`
		3161	`stream.`
		3162
		3163	`Example:`
		3164
		3165	`SharedLib ( '*', 'mySharedLib', @OBJS`

		3170	`* Makefile directive: InstallLibs`

		3173	`directive.`
		3174
		3175	`* GCC Toolkit`
		3176	`Changes to the shared library dependency processing to bring it inline`
		3177	`with other toolers. Will terminate after determining that some`
		3178	`libraries cannot be found. This will ensure that the error message is at`
		3179	`the point of termination.`
		3180
		3181	`* Jats save_build utility`
		3182	`Corrected problem in unreserving a reserved checkout of a build.pl file`
		3183	`under windows.`
		3184
		3185	`* Jats sandbox`
		3186	`ClearCase views created with in the sandbox are created with a tag that`

		3206	`These options will now label the directory elements within the paths`
		3207	`specified by these options, when used in conjunction with the -up option.`
		3208	`This simplified the process of labeling complex directory structures.`

		3225
		3226	`* Solaris targets`
		3227	`Full support for a target called SOLARIS8_SPARC32`
		3228	`It is identical to SOLARIS in a 'sparc' build machine, but it is only`

		3256	`All compiles are done in a position independent manner (-KPIC)`
		3257	`This solved issues where static libraries are linked into shared`
		3258	`libraries.`
		3259
		3260	`* Solaris builds`
		3261	`Program and Shared library dependency checking is now done before`
		3262	`the program/library objects are built. Thus errors associated with missing`
		3263	`dependencies occur before objects are built and the user can see the cause`
		3264	`of the build failure.`
		3265
		3266
		3267	`Internal changes:`

289	dpurdie	3576	`Version: 2.79.0000.cr Released: 10-Jun-09`
		3577	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		3578	`Major changes:`
		3579	`* New Platform: DELPHI7`
		3580	`Support the creation of Units,Libraries, Packages and Programs using`
		3581	`Borlands Delphi Version 7.`
		3582
		3583	`See Jats Reference Manual for complete details and Delphi specific options`
		3584	`to the Prog and SharedLib directives.`
		3585
		3586	`This toolset has a number of limitations:`
		3587	`1) It can build either Debug or Production, but not both, in a single`
		3588	`makefile.pl. This is caused by the Delphi limitation that library`
		3589	`names cannot be changed.`
		3590
		3591	`2) The generation of dependencies between the source and the generated`
		3592	`artifacts is very simplistic.`
		3593
		3594	`Units are generated with the 'Lib' directive. The name of the Unit and the`
		3595	`name of the source are linked. The source should not be provided.`
		3596	`ie: Lib ('*', 'MyUnit' );`
		3597	`Will create a unit called MyUnit.dcu from the source file 'MyUnit.pas'`
		3598
		3599	`Packages are generated with the SharedLib directive starting with a .dpk`
		3600	`file.`
		3601	`ie: SharedLib ( '*', 'MyPackage' );`
		3602	`will create a package called MyPackage.bpl/dcp from the source file`
		3603	`MyPackage.dpk.`
		3604
		3605	`Libraries are generated with the SharedLib directive starting with a .dpr`
		3606	`file.`
		3607	`ie: SharedLib ( '*', 'MyDll' );`
		3608	`will create a package called MyDll.dll/lib from the source file`
		3609	`MyDll.dpr.`
		3610
		3611	`Programs are generated with the Prog directive starting with a .dpr`
		3612	`file.`
		3613	`ie: Prog ( '*', 'MyProg' );`
		3614	`will create a package called MyProg.exe from the source file`
		3615	`MyProg.dpr.`
		3616
		3617	`Minor changes:`
		3618	`* New EnvVar: DELPHI7`
		3619	`Required only if Borland Delphi 7 has not being installed in the`
		3620	`standard location or if the Windows Short Name is not`
		3621	`c:\PROGRA~1\Borland\Delphi7`
		3622
		3623	`* BuildVersion directive`
		3624	`Added a 'Style' of 'Delphi' to allow the generation of version information`
		3625	`in a Delphi Unit.`
		3626
		3627	`Modified the operation of the "C" style generation.`
		3628	`If the name of the file is provided via '--File', then the generated files`
		3629	`will be 'known' to JATS and can be consumed from any makefile. JATS will`
		3630	`'know' the location of the files.`
		3631
		3632	`* Sanity test on the names of libraries and programs`
		3633	`Some characters are not allowed: ie: '/' as this is a mistake.`
		3634
		3635	`Internal Changes:`
		3636	`* ToolsetSHLD functions`
		3637	`Pass in the shared library version string as an argument`
		3638	`Means that the core of JATS can manage this information in a manner`
		3639	`that is decoupled from the toolsets.`
		3640
		3641	`* Reworked the mechanism used to hold data about libraries, shared libraries`
		3642	`merged libraries and programs. Created a class to manipulate build targets`
		3643	`and to maintain information about the contents of the targets.`

287	dpurdie	3655
289	dpurdie	3656	`NOTE: Windows users will need to update their JATS.BAT file in order`

		3658	`Manager`
287	dpurdie	3659
		3660	`Minor changes:`
		3661	`* The jats option '-noexportvars' deletes selected JATS EnvVars from the`

277	dpurdie	3722
279	dpurdie	3723	`JATS will automatically filter out target platforms that cannot be built`
		3724	`on the users machine. ie: It will not try to build Solaris targets on a`
		3725	`Windows machine. Thus, under the new scheme a Windows GBE_BUILDFILTER need`
281	dpurdie	3726	`not contain '!SOLARIS'`
279	dpurdie	3727
		3728	`This greatly simplifies the creation of GBE_BUILDFILTER as it does not`
		3729	`need to be configured to exclude targets that cannot by built.`

279	dpurdie	3745	`* Sandbox command`
		3746	`Added build, make, clean, clobber commands`
		3747
		3748	`Sandbox packages may contain a file called 'stop', to exclude the`
		3749	`target from consideration in the build set.`
		3750
		3751	`* MCR Toolset`
		3752	`This toolset only supports 16 compiler search paths. An descriptive error`

		3773	`This command now appends the current directory as a library path to ANT if`
		3774	`it contains 'jar' files.`
		3775
		3776	`Uses ANT 1.6 as the default version of ANT`
		3777
		3778	`Both changes will simplify the use of this command within the escrow`
		3779	`environment. ie: 'jats abt -buildfile=build1.xml'`
		3780
		3781	`* BuildVersion directive`
		3782	`Form:`

		4713	`* Jats Tool: CCbc2`
		4714	`Added utility to use BeyondCompare (BC2) to compare files in two`

		4717	`process.`
		4718
		4719	`Requires BeyondCompare to be installed in its default location.`

		4775	`Added a run-time test for the presence of the required toolset`

		4781	`If the generating tool can only be found in the users path, don't make`

		4931	`build.pl, is counted as having multiple parents. This condition is`
		4932	`normally treated as an error. When run by the Auto Built Tool, this`
		4933	`condition will be treated as a warning.`
		4934
		4935	`Solaris Toolset`
		4936	`Added option '--WithMisalign' to the SharedLib directive.`
		4937	`When used in conjunction with the 'misalign' CompleOption this option will`
		4938	`cause a machine specific object file (misalign.o) to be included in the`
		4939	`link.`
		4940
		4941	`Programs that are created with 'misalign' will automatically include the`
		4942	`misalign.o object file. The fact that shared libraries do not may be an`
		4943	`indication that this is a bad thing to do.`
		4944
		4945	`Make and generation of subdirectories`
		4946	`Fixed an issue which caused created directories to have a bad timestamp.`

		4950	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		4951	`Version: 2.71.0.cr Released: 10-Oct-07`
		4952	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		4953	`Major changes:`
		4954	`Makefile generation and make recursion`
		4955	`Extensive changes to the makefiles that are generated by JATS and method by`
		4956	`which JATS recuses through subdirectories during a build.`
		4957
		4958	`Summary of changes:`
		4959	`- Removed the use of 'make' to perform recursion over subdirectories`
		4960	`and platforms. This has been replaced by a JATS program that performs`
		4961	`the same task - only a great deal faster and with a greater scope for`
		4962	`flexibility.`
		4963
		4964	`The user interface remains identical: jats make ....`
		4965
		4966	`- Replaced the generated 'Makefile' with 'Makefile.gbe'. This is a text`
		4967	`file that provides sufficient information to allow JATS to locate the`
		4968	`interface directory and associated build information.`
		4969
		4970	`- Significant speed up in determining the need to rebuild a makefile.`
		4971	`On a large package this has been reduced from 30+ seconds to less`
		4972	`than one second.`
		4973
		4974	`- Significant speed up of large recursive builds through intelligent`
		4975	`building of the 'make_init' target. This is only processed once for`
		4976	`each platform type. Previously it was processed in each and every`
		4977	`makefile. This make target is used, internally, to perform sanity`
		4978	`testing of the compiler environment and to display the name of the`
		4979	`toolset. It is an expensive operation.`
		4980
		4981	`- Intelligent speed up of large recursive through better mechanism`
		4982	`for creating required directories. These are now created on the fly,`
		4983	`rather than via a slow recursive pass though all makefiles.`
		4984
		4985	`- Better makefile rebuilding`
		4986	`Makefiles can be rebuilt on the fly. The previous system was prone to`
		4987	`detecting that makefiles needs to be re-built, but then not re-`
		4988	`building them.`
		4989
		4990	`- Detection of build file changes`
		4991	`The make process will detect that the build file has been modified`
		4992	`and that the component has not been rebuilt. This is a warning. It`
		4993	`does not prevent the 'make' operation.`
		4994
		4995	`- Quieter make output`
		4996	`The 'Nothing to be done' message has been disabled.`
		4997
		4998
		4999	`Minor changes:`
		5000	`MakeAnt Directive`
		5001	`Allows ANT_HOME to be a path with spaces. ie: c:\Program Files\apache-ant-1.6.5`
		5002
		5003	`JATS command "debug" and "prod"`
		5004	`These now handle make arguments and options correctly. Thus the command:`
		5005	`jats prod WIN32 OPTIONS=args`
		5006	`Will correctly do a production build for WIN32 with command execution`
		5007	`display. Before, the system would attempt to process prod_OPTIONS=args.`
		5008
		5009	`CSHARP toolset`
		5010	`Correctly detect missing compiler directories`

		5102	`Major changes:`
		5103
		5104	`Minor changes:`
		5105	`* Reverted changes made in JATS_2.68.1 to the library search path`
		5106	`Although the search order is broken, we will need to live with it.`
		5107
		5108	`Addressed the search order of /usr/lib under Solaris by adding a new`
		5109	`AddLibDir option (--System) to add system paths. These will be searched`
		5110	`last.`
		5111
		5112	`For the record, the search order for header files and libraries is:`

		5117	`2) Within the components 'local' directories. These are populated with`

		5137	`Major changes:`
		5138
		5139	`Minor changes:`
		5140	`* Solaris Toolset`

		5143
		5144	`* RunTest operation`

		5150	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5151	`Version: JATS_2.68.0 Released: 20-Aug-07`
		5152	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5153	`Major changes:`
		5154	`* Trap use of uncontrolled versions of 'ant' and the Java Compiler (javac)`
		5155
		5156	`It was discovered that a few old makefile.pl's where invoking ant and`
		5157	`javac directly in order to build small Java components. This was`
		5158	`normally being done in the guise of the WIN32 target. These packages`
		5159	`were making assumptions about the version of Java on the users search`
		5160	`path.`
		5161
		5162	`JATS can invoke ANT and build Java based components using the MakeAnt`
		5163	`directive and the JAVA platform. This method is controlled and`
		5164	`reproducible.`
		5165
		5166	`This release provides changes such that these packages will not build.`
		5167	`This is better than building incorrectly.`
		5168
		5169	`There are several aspects to the change`
		5170	`1) JATS provides binaries (ant and javac) with an error message. If`
		5171	`the user invoked ant/javac in a manner that involves searching the`
		5172	`PATH then these will be used and report an error.`
		5173
		5174	`2) A special command (jats abt) can be used to start up the Auto Build`
		5175	`Tool in a manner that does not alter the PATH seen by the utilities.`
		5176	`Moreover it does not alter the JAVA_HOME seen by the build. This is`
		5177	`controlled separately.`
		5178
		5179	`Minor changes:`
		5180	`* Sanitize the PATH environment variable`
		5181	`Ensure the JATS bin directory is the first directory searched`
		5182	`Remove duplicates`
		5183	`Place non-existent components at the end of the PATH`
		5184
		5185	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5186	`Version: JATS_2.67.1 Released: 17-Aug-07`
		5187	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5188	`Major changes:`
		5189
		5190	`Minor changes:`
		5191	`* Makefile sanity test`
		5192	`Added a test to ensure that makefiles created on a machine of one type are`
		5193	`not then run on a machine of a different type.`
		5194
		5195	`This will prevent files created on solaris-sparc being used on a solaris-`
		5196	`x86 machine.`
		5197
		5198	`* Correct bug in RunTest`
		5199	`RunTest now extends the PATH to include the local bin directory`
		5200
		5201	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5202	`Version: JATS_2.67.0 Released: 13-Aug-07`
		5203	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5204	`Major changes:`
		5205	`* RunTest directive`
		5206	`Added support for running tests within the NUNIT test framework for the`
		5207	`CSHARP target. In the process a generalized mechanism for accessing`
		5208	`toolset specific test frameworks has been added.`
		5209
		5210	`Changes to the directive to support a FrameWork.`
		5211	`The use of a test FrameWork is signaled with the option`
		5212	`--FrameWork=<name> If this is present then the raw name of the program`
		5213	`under test will be passed to the framework. program.`
		5214
		5215	`If a FrameWork is in use, then JATS will invoke the specified framework`
		5216	`builder within the current toolset.`
		5217
		5218	`When a framework is in place JATS will pass arguments of the form:`
		5219	`'--Tag=Text' to the FrameWork. Other options are processed as normal.`
		5220
		5221	`With in the Nunit FrameWork the program under test will be a DLL Nunit`
		5222	`will only operate on a DLL. The DLL must have been created by the makefile`
		5223	`containing the RunTest directive.`
		5224
		5225	`The Nunit Framework supports the following options:`
		5226	`--Uses=<Name>[,SubOption]+`
		5227
		5228	`This option specifies other DLLs that are used by the TestDLL. They will`
		5229	`be copied in to the test directory, and may be sourced from an external`
		5230	`package or the components 'local' lib directory.`
		5231
		5232	`SubOptions available to The --Uses directive are:`
		5233	`--NonJats This is not a JATS built library. It will not have a`
		5234	`P or D suffix.`
		5235	`--Jats (Default) This is a JATS built library. JATS will`
		5236	`select the correct library type for this build.`
		5237
		5238	`Minor changes:`
		5239	`* New Cache cleanup mechanism`
		5240	`When a package is consumed from the 'cache' a flag is updated within`
		5241	`the cache. The cache aging routines use this file in preference to`
		5242	`the descpkg file, thus it will prevent the aging of packages that are`
		5243	`frequently used. The aging policy can be made more aggressive.`
		5244
		5245	`* Save Build Utility`
		5246	`This utility is used by the Auto Build System to save the 'build.pl' file`
		5247	`used in a ripple build.`
		5248
		5249	`The utility has been enhanced to detect a reserved checkout of the`
		5250	`build.pl. The checkout will be changed to unreserved - if possible.`
		5251
		5252	`* Release Utility`
		5253	`The 'jats release' command will now unlock any labels that it locked`
		5254	`when an error is encountered.`
		5255
		5256	`This simplifies the 'release' process as the developers label will be`
		5257	`unlocked if a build error occurs.`
		5258
		5259	`* Jats caching local copy of itself`
		5260	`Fixed a bug which resulted in an "Use of individualized value" message`
		5261	`being displayed a large number of times during the file transfer process.`
		5262
		5263	`* Minor extension to allow plug-in directives to perform a processing step`
		5264	`before the makefiles are created.`
		5265
		5266	`* TestProg directive`
		5267	`TestProg's are now built in exactly the same manner as Progs`
		5268
		5269	`* Correct problem introduced in 2.66.1 with packaging of files with`
		5270	`a 'space' or '$' in the file name.`
		5271

		5274	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5275	`Major changes:`
		5276	`* New build target`
		5277	`LINUX_ETX - Support for Linux on an ETX board`
		5278	`LMOS_LINUX_ETX - Support for LMOS on the LINUX_ETX target`
		5279
		5280	`These targets have also been added to the following pseudo targets.`
		5281	`DEVLINUX`
		5282	`LMOS_DEVLINUX`
		5283
		5284	`* Internal utility dpkg_cache [Windows]`

		5286	`transfer, after having problems the 'cp.exe' provided by JATS.`
		5287
		5288	`Minor changes:`
		5289	`* Added utility class to provide directory searching`
		5290	`To be used in JATS and JATS support tools`

		5293	`Correct problem with filename that start with "n" as in .\not_nice.cs`
		5294
		5295	`Create resource files with Fully Qualified Names derived from the .resx`
		5296	`and .cs files.`
		5297
		5298	`Handle Strong Key Names and creates wrappers to provide do the right`
		5299	`thing.`
		5300
		5301	`* Microtec ColdFire compiler`
		5302	`Further attempts to get the compiler to place all of its temp files in a`
		5303	`local directory. The compiler uses a large number of EnVars to control`
		5304	`were it places temp files.`
		5305
		5306	`Underlying problem is random compiler failures on big builds. Suspected`
		5307	`interaction with other builds.`
		5308
		5309	`* Release utility command`
		5310	`Added a -tag=name option to allow the Auto Build Tools to create`
		5311	`multiple instances of a static view. The tag is used to provide a unique`
		5312	`component in the clearcase tag name.`

		5398	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5399	`Version: JATS_2.65.1 Released: 30-May-07`
		5400	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5401	`Major changes:`
		5402	`* Provided a mechanism by which JATS makefile.pl directives can be extended`
		5403	`through modules provided by external packages. This will be used to reduce`
		5404	`the dependancy on JATS of various packaging processes.`
		5405
		5406	`* GenerateFiles`
		5407	`Added the options:`
		5408	`--UnknownPreq - Will force the recipe to be run every time`
		5409	`the generated files are required. May be used`
		5410	`when the dependancies are too complex to`
		5411	`describe. ie: Entire directory tree.`
		5412
		5413	`--AutoGenerate - Will not force the recipe to be run during the`
		5414	`'generate' phase, unless the recipe generates`
		5415	`source files. Allows recipes to be run very`
		5416	`late. ie: when the dependent files are actually`
		5417	`required.`
		5418
		5419
		5420	`Minor changes:`
		5421	`* GenerateFile directive`
		5422	`Added --Var(BuildRoot)`
		5423
		5424	`* GCC Toolset`
		5425	`Creating Shared Libaries with a 'Def' file. The library is now dependent`
		5426	`on the Def file, such that changes to the Def file will cause the library to`
		5427	`be rebuilt.`
		5428
		5429	`* MakeAnt and MakeProject directives`
		5430	`Preserve the order in which projects are built.`
		5431

		5435	`Major changes:`
		5436	`* Access to Release Manager and Deployment Manager databases`
		5437	`The database location, user and password have been made configurable via`
		5438	`environment variables.`
		5439
		5440	`Reason: The Release Manager and Deployment Manager databases are being`
		5441	`moved.`
		5442
		5443	`This will affect users that:`
		5444	`1) Use tools that access RM or DM`
		5445	`Some tools that build deployable packages`
		5446
		5447	`2) Use the ABT system`
		5448	`The buildadm user, and the ABT scripts will be modified to provide`
		5449	`the required configuration`
		5450
		5451	`If you need to use tools that access RM or DM, outside of the ABT scripts on`

		5485	`The TP5600* targets should be removed to make it obvious that these packages`
		5486	`need to be converted.`
		5487
		5488	`* Building Linux Device Drivers`
		5489	`The hard-coded path to the Kernel Headers has been removed.`
		5490	`Linux Drivers must be built with a suitable package to provide`

		5551
		5552	`LMOS_TP5600 is a tag that will be expanded to the entire family of LMOS_TP5600`

		5555
		5556	`LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI and LMOS_TP5600_EMU`
		5557	`These are LMOS based targets. The 'lmos' package must be used in order to`

		5559
		5560	`The LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI can use components from the TP5600_ARM9TDMI,`

		5567	`This is a tag that will be expanded to all the known WINCE targets.`
		5568	`Use of this platform will simplify the creation of components for`
		5569	`consumption on all WINCE machines.`
		5570
		5571	`The current list of WINCE targets is:`

		5582
		5583	`The WINCE targets actually built will be affected by GBE_BUILDFILTER.`
		5584
		5585	`* JATS makefile.pl`
		5586	`The package descriptor file, 'descpkg', will be packaged in all makefiles`
		5587	`that contain packaging directives.`
		5588
		5589	`There is now no need to explicitly package the 'descpkg' file, except in`
		5590	`very unusual configurations.`
		5591
		5592	`Minor changes:`
		5593	`* Directive: PackageFile`
		5594	`Generate a warning if the source file name does not confirm to good naming`
		5595	`conventions. The filename must not start with a '-' and must not contain`
		5596	`an '='.`
		5597
		5598	`Normally the result of an error in the directive. ie: "-Subdir=etc", instead`

		5600
		5601	`* JATS Internal utility: cmdfile`
		5602	`Updated Linux and Solaris targets with a version of the cmdfile that`
		5603	`provides a better error message for libraries that cannot be found.`
		5604
		5605	`This version will display the library search path with one item per line,`

		5609	`Version: JATS_2.63.0 Released: 5-Apr-07`
		5610	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5611	`Major changes:`
		5612
		5613	`* JATS release command`
		5614	`Modified the configuration spec generated when a branching rule is`
		5615	`specified. The change will ensure that directories are not branched.`
		5616
		5617	`Rules are:`
		5618	`Modify a file: File will branch`
		5619	`Adding a file: Containing directory will not branch`
		5620	`File will be placed on a branch`
		5621	`Add a directory: Containing directory will not branch`
		5622	`New directory will branch`
		5623
		5624	`Minor changes:`
		5625	`* JATS release command`
		5626	`Added -noprefex option to allow the creation of a view directory without the`
		5627	`user name being prefixed to it. This is useful in creating an escrow view.`
		5628
		5629	`* JATS label command`
		5630	`Detect and report parent directories that are checkedout when a label`
		5631	`is applied. Previously these had gone unreported.`
		5632
		5633	`* JATS make`
		5634	`Undo previous change to preserve symbolic links while Packaging and`
		5635	`Installing files. A problem was encountered when a file from a package`
		5636	`was re-packaged.`
		5637
		5638	`* JATS escrow`
		5639	`Added a tool to generate information for creating an escrow drop.`
		5640	`Use jats escrow -help for details`
		5641
		5642	`* makefile.pl directive: MakeAnt`
		5643	`This directive will create parameters to specify the location of external java`
		5644	`packages that have been referenced via a LinkPkgArchive directive.`
		5645
		5646	`This allows the build.xml to contruct a CLASSPATH to access JAR files in`
		5647	`packages, without the overhead of copying the entire package into the`
		5648	`interface directory.`
		5649
		5650	`* build.pl directive: BuildPkgArchive`
		5651	`Modified the processing of 'jar' directories.`
		5652	`Directories of the form 'jar.<target>' will be transferred into the 'jar'`
		5653	`directory as seen by the package.`
		5654
		5655	`Intended use: Deployment of oraclient for Solaris 10`
		5656
		5657	`* JAVA 6`
		5658	`JATS now supports all versions of Java through the use of JAVA_HOME_X_Y`
		5659	`environment variables. Where X andY specify the version of JAVA.`
		5660
		5661	`The jats.bat and jats.sh example files only provide indication of 1.4, 1.5`
		5662	`and 1.6 support, but all versions are now supported.`
		5663
		5664	`The "jats vars -v" command will display all JAVA_HOME environment variables`
		5665
		5666	`* Jats command: vars`
		5667	`Extended to show a "*" for EnvVars that do not address a valid directory`
		5668	`These indicate potential problems.`
		5669
		5670	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5671	`Version: JATS_2.62.4 Released: 20-Mar-07`
		5672	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5673	`Major changes:`
		5674	`* JATS create_dpkg + packageing shared libraries (Unix)`
		5675	`When a shared library is created a simple symbolic link to the versioned`
		5676	`libarry is also created.`
		5677
		5678	`Previous versions of JATS would replace the symbolic link with a physical`
		5679	`copy of the file. The effect of this is that when the shared libaries is`
		5680	`'Installed', 'Packaged' and transferred into dpkg_archive there are two`
		5681	`files, instead of one file and one link to the file (in the same directory)`
		5682	`The Solaris shared libraries can be quite large, due to the debug`
		5683	`information contained within the file.`
		5684
		5685	`This version of JATS will preserve symbolic links when 'Installing',`
		5686	`'Packaging' and transferring to dpkg_archive.`
		5687
		5688	`The advantage of this will be significant reduction in disk space used`
		5689	`within the build environment and dpkg_archive.`
		5690
		5691	`* Building Perl Modules`
		5692	`Modified the process to prevent the module builder attempting to modify the`
		5693	`documentation on the build machine.`
		5694
		5695	`Integrated the 'jats clean' operation.`
		5696
		5697	`Minor changes:`
		5698	`* jats create_dpkg`
		5699	`Added an option to create a built.generic file`
		5700	`This is only used by the Automated Built Tools.`
		5701
		5702	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5703	`Version: JATS_2.62.3 Released: 28-Feb-07`
		5704	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5705	`Major changes:`
		5706	`* JATS JAVA build target`
		5707	`The default behaviour of the JAVA build target has changed such that the`
		5708	`default version of JAVA used will be 1.4.`
		5709
		5710	`Previous behaviour was to use whichever version was specified by the EnvVar`
		5711	`JAVA_HOME. This was not controlled, thus the build was not controlled.`
		5712	`Problems occur when using the new AutoBuildTool as it uses Java 1.5 and this`
		5713	`is then picked up as the default version.`
		5714
		5715	`If a version, other than 1.4, is required then specify it within the`
		5716	`build.pl file.`
		5717
		5718	`Minor changes:`
		5719	`* jats release`
		5720	`Ensure that the 'cleartool' command can be found in the users PATH`
		5721	`Issue an error if it cannot be found.`
		5722	`This error indicates bad DevEnv setup`
		5723
		5724	`Added facility to create a view based on a config_spec, instead of a label.`
		5725	`Such a view cannot be used to create a release. It is intended to simplify`
		5726	`the creation of simple static views. The name of view is, by default,`
		5727	`based on the name of the config spec. Use the -view=name option to change`
		5728	`the name of the view.`
		5729
		5730	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		5731	`Added new --Vars() to allow packaging of JATS plugin tools.`
		5732
		5733	`* MOS Toolset`
		5734	`When using MOS fast intermodule calls the optimizer will preload commonly`
		5735	`used memory addresses into a register BEFORE the GDP has been correctly set`
		5736	`up. Use the following option to suppress this optimization`
		5737
		5738	`Added: CompileOptions ('*', 'NoGlobalOptimization' );`

		5744	`Major changes:`
		5745
		5746	`Minor changes:`
		5747	`* JATS environment`
		5748	`Ensure that the true path of the Perl executable is present in the PATH`
		5749	`environment variable. This allows build tool access to various perl utilities`
		5750	`that are located in the Perl bin directory.`
		5751
		5752	`Resolves issues in locating utilities such as pod2html`
		5753
		5754	`* Use of GENERIC platforms`
		5755	`Report an error if a GENERIC platform is mixed with any other platform`
		5756	`specifier. GENERIC is used for packages that build on all machines because`
		5757	`they do not use a compiler or linker. They simply contains files that need`
		5758	`to be packaged.`
		5759
		5760	`* Generated makefiles`
		5761	`Solaris and Linux: Ensure that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is exported if it is used.`
		5762
		5763	`* Generating MOS THX files`
		5764	`Added option --BinaryImage to the SharedLib directive used to create MOS THX`
		5765	`files. This option will create a binary image (.bin) instead of a .thx file.`
		5766	`This is being used in the creation of BR Applets.`
		5767
		5768	`SharedLib ( 'MOS', "xxx", @OBJS, "--Rel=xxx.rel", "--BinaryImage" );`
		5769
		5770	`* JATS release`
		5771	`Correct the operation of the -path option under Unix`

		5773	`* JATS extract`
		5774	`New JATS command. This is the same as 'jats release -extract'`
		5775
		5776	`* JATS Toolset`
		5777	`Added support for the WinCe PSION (WCEPSION_420)`
		5778	`This is a armv4i device using 4.20 of the WCE SDK`

		5784	`Major changes:`
		5785
		5786	`Minor changes:`
		5787	`* jats label`
		5788	`Added a -vob=name option`
		5789	`This allwos the label utility to create, lock, unlock, rename and delete`
		5790	`labels without the user actually being located within the VOB. This option`
		5791	`cannot be used in conjunction with operations that place labels on files.`
		5792	`It can only be used for operations that manipulate the label.`
		5793
		5794	`Added a -user=name option`
		5795	`This extends the operation of the -mine operation to change ownership of the`
		5796	`label to the named user.`
		5797
		5798	`* jats release`
		5799	`Displays the path to the view and the build file in a user friendly manner`
		5800	`Under Windows it uses \, unless running under cygwin.`
		5801
		5802	`* JATS build.pl`
		5803	`BuildProduct supports the --Uses=xxxx construct on a per-target basis.`
		5804	`ie:`
		5805	`BuildProduct ('TP5', 'LMOS_TP5600_EMU', 'LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI,--Uses=TP5600_ARM9TDMI');`

		5811	`Major changes:`
		5812	`* GenerateFiles and RunTest directives`
		5813	`These directives have been extended to allow a large number of makefile`
		5814	`values to be added to the command lines,without resorting to knowledge of`
		5815	`the makefile internals. ie:`
		5816	`--Var(BuildName)`
		5817	`will be expanded to (hen building MyPackage)`
		5818	`-BuildName=MyPackage`
		5819
		5820	`The complete list of Variables is provided in the JATS manual.`
		5821
		5822	`* GenerateFiles`
		5823	`Added a --Clean option to allow tools to be invoked in the 'clean' phase`

		5834	`* GenerateFiles`
		5835	`Maintains the arguments in an array for simpler processing.`
		5836
		5837	`--Shell is now processed by the 'make' shell rather then invoking an`
		5838	`external shell. It will be the same shell, just easier to setup.`

		5841	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5842	`Version: JATS_2.61.3 Released: 14-Dec-06`
		5843	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5844	`Major changes:`
		5845	`* Caching JATS`
		5846	`Added a mechanism whereby JATS can cache a copy of itself on the users local`
		5847	`drive. This is applicable to windows.`
		5848
		5849	`This mechanism will allow a user to address JATS via the soft-links in`
		5850	`dpkg_archive and pick up the current version of JATS without the penalty of`
		5851	`then using JATS across a slow(network) link.`
		5852
		5853	`The EnvVar GBE_CACHE_JATS controls the operation of this feature.`
		5854	`Set GBE_CACHE_JATS to one to enable the operation, but it will only be`
		5855	`effective if JATS is being run from GBE_DPKG in the first place.`
		5856
		5857	`Use: Build Machines and Windows Users`
		5858
		5859	`Minor changes:`
		5860	`* Build directive: BuildAlias with --Target option`
		5861	`Corrected a problem when the target name is a expanded platform name (ie:`
		5862	`TP5600) that prevent correct expansion.`
		5863
		5864	`* jats build`
		5865	`If the user has not configured a cache, then do not attempt to cache`
		5866	`packages. This will remove an annoying warning message for each package`
		5867	`processed by the build.`
		5868
		5869	`* jats build`
		5870	`Modified the error messages generated when JATS fails to create the`
		5871	`makefiles. The previous system would report failures while creating`
		5872	`makefiles and, at the end of the process, it would generate a large error`
		5873	`message to indicate the failure. This large message diverted the users`
		5874	`from reading the other error messages resulting in confusion.`
		5875
		5876	`* PackageFile, PackageLib, PackageProg and PackageHdr`
		5877	`Detect and report as an error use of the --Dir=<Path> option where the`
		5878	`Path is not specified.`
		5879
		5880	`Most instances of this error will be where the option has been mis-used in`
		5881	`conjunction with a package.pl file, or during transition from using a`
		5882	`package.pl file. That change is detects errors where the user has specified`
		5883	`--Dir=$Pinc`
		5884	`but $Pinc is not defined.`
		5885
		5886	`* Purify and Purecov under Windows`
		5887	`Changes to correct the operation of Rational's tools when used on the`
		5888	`Windows platform.`
		5889
		5890	`- OPTIONS=purecov`
		5891	`Forces the link operations to generate the relocation table required`
		5892	`by 'purecov.`
		5893
		5894	`Does not attempt to use purecov in the compiler tool chain`
		5895	`This is required under Solaris, but not Windows`
		5896
		5897	`- OPTIONS=purify`
		5898	`Does not attempt to use purecov in the compiler tool chain`
		5899	`This is required under Solaris, but not Windows.`
		5900	`Under WIndows this option does nothing.`

		5904	`Version: JATS_2.61.2 Released: 27-Nov-06`
		5905	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5906	`Major changes:`
		5907	`* makefile.pl directive Platform`
		5908	`This directive has been expanded to allow for the negation operation`
		5909	`Example:`
		5910	`Platform ('!MOSCF');`
		5911	`Process makefile for all targets other than MOSCF`
		5912	`This is the same as Platform ('*', '!MOSCF');`
		5913
		5914	`Excluded platform will be processed after included platforms have`
		5915	`been determined.`
		5916
		5917	`Minor changes:`
		5918	`* Added the ScanList directive.`
		5919	`This directive allows a list of files within an external package to be`
		5920	`located at build-time.`
		5921
		5922	`* Unix based systems`
		5923	`If the EnvVar LD_LIBRARY_PATH was undefined, then a warning would be`
		5924	`generated by make under some conditions. The warning has been removed.`
		5925
		5926	`* MakeLinuxDriver`
		5927	`Added a --Define=text option to allow "defines" to be passed to the`
		5928	`driver being built.`
		5929

		5946	`dependancy information within a package.`
		5947
		5948	`Added NO_WARN option to the classes 'new' method to supress warning`
		5949	`messages.`

		5958	`Added directive: MakeLinuxDriver to build and Linux Device Driver.`
		5959
		5960	`GenerateFiles.`
		5961	`Added option: --NoGenerate to indicate that the directive does`

		5968	`Will only print out the current version of JATS`
		5969
		5970	`* GCC Toolset (Used to build Linux)`
		5971	`Added options to allow the generation of statically linked programs.`
		5972	`There are two mechanism:`
		5973
		5974	`Globally within the makefile.pl, or if applied in the common makefile.pl`
		5975	`the option can apply to all programs being built.`
		5976
		5977	`CompileOptions ( 'platform', 'StaticProgs' ); - Generate static programs`
		5978	`CompileOptions ( 'platform', 'No_StaticProgs' ); - Default`
		5979
		5980	`Within the Prog directive, the following options will override the global`
		5981	`default.`
		5982	`--Static - Create a statically linked program`
		5983	`--Shared - Create a dynamically linked program`

		5988	`Major changes:`
		5989	`* SunWorks Toolset`
		5990	`Better determination of the location of the SunWorks compiler and library`
		5991	`Does not use an environment variable to locate compiler libraries`
		5992	`It is based on machine type.`
		5993	`Uses the absolute path to the compiler and does not use the user's PATH`

		6009	`Altered the mechanism used to determine cross compilation`
		6010	`Extended the cross compilers that can be handled by the toolset`
		6011	Removed the use of `uname`.
		6012
		6013	`* Added platforms`
		6014	`TP5600 ( Expands to TP5600_ARM9TDMI and TP5600_EMU )`
		6015	`TP5600_ARM9TDMI`
		6016	`TP5600_EMU`

		6027	`Force the compiler to create temp files within the interface directory.`
		6028	`This is an attempt to solve a infrequent problem seen when multiple builds`
		6029	`are being performed. The 68k compiler already had a similar fix to address a`
		6030	`similar, but more pronounced, issue.`
		6031
		6032	`* Atmel toolset (DEVI-031788)`
		6033	`New Products: AT90SC7272C and AT90SC3232CS`
		6034	`The AT90SC3232CS is identical to the existing AT3232`

		6097
		6098	`* SOLARIS target: New Aliases`
		6099	`Provided new ALIAS based in the underlying architecture`
		6100	`Theses are:`
		6101	`SOLARIS_SPARC`
		6102	`SOLARIS_AMD`
		6103	`These may be used to limit operations to only flavor of SOLARIS. eg: The`
		6104	`utility 'rtc_patch_area' is only usable on sparc machines.`
		6105
		6106	`Minor changes:`
		6107	`* AT3232 toolset`
		6108	`Create .sxml files in conjunction with .s19 files`
		6109
		6110	`* Jats build`

		6122	`messages`
		6123
		6124	`* PackageFile and PackageProg directives`
		6125	`The --Machine and --Tool options have been modified to allow the JATS tools`
		6126	`to be created in a directory that is related to GBE_MACHTYPE on which the`
		6127	`tool is created, rather then the target platform type.`
		6128
		6129	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6130	`Version: JATS_2.56.2 Released: 28-Aug-06`
		6131	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6132	`Major changes:`
		6133
		6134	`Minor changes:`
		6135	`* WIN32 and WINCE toolsets`
		6136	`SharedLib operation. Added an option to allow the creation of a 'stub'`
		6137	`library without creating the body of the library:`
		6138	`eg: SharedLib ( 'WIN', 'MyStub' , '--Def=windef.def','--MutualDll','--Stubonly' );`
		6139
		6140
		6141	`* MOS toolsets`
		6142	`SharedLib operation. Added an option to allow the creation of a 'stub'`
		6143	`library without creating the body of the library:`
		6144	`eg: SharedLib ( 'MOS', 'MyStub' , '--Rel=lib.rel' , '--Implib=lib_stub','--Stubonly' );`
		6145

		6149	`using autoconf.`
		6150
		6151	`* Generate directive`
		6152	`The shared library search path is extended to allow the tools to locate`
		6153	`all shared libraies (.dll/.so) in packages and the local area.`
		6154

		6159	`Version: JATS_2.56.1 Released: 23-Aug-06`
		6160	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6161	`Major changes:`
		6162	`* Support for SOLARIS10_X86 and SOLARIS10_X64`
		6163	`Initial release.`
		6164
		6165	`Minor changes:`
		6166
		6167
		6168	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6169	`Version: JATS_2.56.0 Released: 18-Aug-06`
		6170	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6171	`Major changes:`
		6172	`* Support for SOLARIS10_sparc32 and SOLARIS10_sparc64`
		6173	`Initial release.`
		6174
		6175	`* Packaging directives`
		6176	`Added option --OsCommon to allow files and header files to be packed into`
		6177	`a directory known to all platforms being built for a common OS.`
		6178
		6179	`Currently this is only supported to target platforms based on`
		6180	`SOLARIS`
		6181	`WIN32`
		6182
		6183	`* Removal of support for badly formed packages`
		6184	`As of this release libraries that exist in the <packagename>/lib directory`
		6185	`will not be available to JATS. These libraries are in the incorrect`
		6186	`directory. They MUST be in a directory that indicates the intended purpose`
		6187	`of the library. A .so library cannot be used on all machines ( linux,`
		6188	`solaris-sparc, solaris-amd ... ).`
		6189
		6190	`* Build Platform target name expansion facility`
		6191	`The build targets of SOLARIS and LINUX are seen as expandable names. They`
		6192	`will be expanded to suitable targets - depending on the host machine .`
		6193
		6194
		6195	`Minor changes:`
		6196	`* Utility: JATS LABEL`
		6197	`Ensure that the 'cleartool' utility can be found in the users path.`
		6198	`Generate a suitable error message if it cannot be found.`
		6199
		6200	`* Utility: JATS RELEASE`
		6201	`Added a -root=dirname to allow the user to place the created view at a given`
		6202	`location`
		6203
		6204	`Added GBE_VIEWBASE to provide a globally configured mechanism for`
		6205	`controlling the view location. Performs the same job as -root=xxxx`
		6206
		6207	`* Utility genrc`
		6208	`Added the company name to the copyright string`
		6209
		6210	`* Utility: jats_save_build`
		6211	`Added option: -new`
		6212	`This option forces the saved file only a new branch.`
		6213	`The option can be used to save a build.pl file onto a new project-specific`
		6214	`branch. Useful when branching an entire release.`
		6215
		6216	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6217	`Added options to allow project suffixes to be replaced.`
		6218	`Use: Convert a .syd project to a .bej project.`
		6219
		6220	`* Deprecated features: package.pl and tree.dir`
		6221	`These two build features are being deprecated. They are not suitable for`
		6222	`migration to other SOLARIS based platforms.`
		6223
		6224	`The Package directives provide sufficient power to replace the package.pl`
		6225	`features - in a uniform manner.`
		6226
		6227
		6228	`Internal Changes:`
		6229	`* Major rework of the JATS BuildPlatform, BuildAlias an BuildProducts`
		6230	`directives, together with the mechanism used to describe the platform builds.`
		6231
		6232	`Introduced a CFG/<PLATFORM>.CFG file to provide:`
		6233	`1) Platform information available at build time`
		6234	`2) Dynamic platform names`
		6235
		6236	`* Major rework of the 'SOLARIS' platform`
		6237	`The SOLARIS platform will generate one or more targets, depending on the`
		6238	`machine on which the platform is invoked.`
		6239
		6240	`Consolidated a number of SOLARIS specific kludges and converted them into`
		6241	`configurable items. These kludges are really on applicable to the`
		6242	`SOLARIS8_SPARC32 platform. New SOLARIS builds will be well formed.`
		6243
		6244	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6245	`Formalized a number of kludges in operation of the SOLARIS8 under sparc32`
		6246	`platform. These are configured early in the build process and are no longer`
		6247	`needed.`
		6248
		6249	`A side effect of this work is that files from external packages may be`
		6250	`located in 'SOLARIS', 'SOLARIS_sparc' or 'sparc' directories. The change`
		6251	`should be transparent as the consumer tools should be able to handle`
		6252	`files from all of these.`

		6264	`Version: JATS_2.55.0 Released: 3-Aug-06`
		6265	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6266	`Major changes:`
		6267	`* Jats wrapper: Specify version of JATS to be used`
		6268	`Added a -version=xxxx option to force JATS to use a specific version of`
		6269	`JATS. The same operation can be achieved by setting GBE_JATS_VERSION.`
		6270
		6271	`The required version MUST be found in one of the known archives.`
		6272
		6273	`JATS will attempt to cache the version of JATS to assist in speeding up`
		6274	`the operations.`
		6275
		6276	`The version option MUST be the first option.`
		6277
		6278	`The version option MUST be followed by a '--' option.`
		6279	`This prevents JATS parsing other options and recursion issues.`
		6280
		6281	`Example: jats -version=2.54.3.cr -- build`
		6282
		6283	`* Migrated the "jats install" functionality out of the jats wrapper script`
		6284	`and into the create_dpkg utility. This is transparent to the user.`
		6285
		6286	`* Utility: create_dpkg`
		6287	`Added a '-quiet' option to allow use within scripts`
		6288	`Extended the built-in help`
		6289	`Added useful error messages`
		6290	`Migrate code to a common error reporting mechanism`
		6291
		6292	`* WinCE toolset`
		6293	`Added support for the WCEPA962 target.`
		6294
		6295	`* M16 toolset as used in building MCRFirmware`
		6296	`Added a --MotOnly option to the Prog directives. MOT files`
		6297	`are used in the creation of bootstraps.`
		6298
		6299	`Minor changes:`
		6300	`* JATS wrapper script`
		6301	`Added a -ABT=xxx option to allow the Auto Build Tool to be invoked from`
		6302	`the command line.`
		6303
		6304	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6305	`Modified so that it will display changes. These will then be present in the`
		6306	`ABT log so that a developer can see which packages have been rippled.`
		6307
		6308	`Internal Changes:`
		6309	`* Common Error Reporting`
		6310	`Will use environment variables to control DEBUG and VERBOSE levels`
		6311	`for individual users. A module reporting with a name of XXXX will use EnvVars`
		6312	`of GBE_XXXX_VERBOSE and GBE_XXXX_DEBUG to control the debug and VERBOSE`
		6313	`level.`
		6314
		6315	`Force flushing after a "Question" is asked to ensure that the prompt is`
		6316	`displayed.`
		6317
		6318	`Enable autoflush for both STDOUT and STDERR.`
		6319
		6320	`* Added JatsSystem module`

		6330	`.def files to include other files.`
		6331
		6332	`* IAR toolset`
		6333	`Added AT7272 support`
		6334
		6335	`* Tool: jats_manifest`
		6336	`Added links to a suitable md5sum program on target platforms`

		6350	`Version: JATS_2.54.1 Released: 29-Jun-06`
		6351	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6352	`Major changes:`
		6353
		6354	`Minor changes:`
		6355	`* Mictotec toolset`
		6356	`Assembler files. Define DEBUG in debug builds and NDEBUG in production`
		6357	`builds.`
		6358
		6359	`* JATS Core`
		6360	`Added GBE_ABT. This is used by the Auto Build Tool to indicate that an`
		6361	`auto build is in progress. It may be used by various tools to modify their`
		6362	`behaviour.`
		6363
		6364	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6365	`Version: JATS_2.54.0 Released: 22-Jun-06`
		6366	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6367	`Major changes:`
		6368	`* Removal of non-core deployment functionality from JATS.`
		6369	`Deployment package will be affected.`
		6370
		6371	`The build.pl file of deployment package will need to import deployment`
		6372	`support with a BuildPkgArchive directive. ie:`
		6373
		6374	`BuildPkgArchive ( 'deployfiles', '1.0.0.cr' );`
		6375
		6376	`This version of deployfiles contains the same functionality as that provided`
		6377	`by the previous version of JATS. Version 2 of this package will be the start`
		6378	`of a deployment system that will provide support for building InstallShield`
		6379	`packages.`
		6380
		6381	`* Deployment support utilities must be run under JATS`
		6382	`The environment required for the deployment support utilities is complex`
		6383	`and is provided by the JATS wrapper script.`
		6384
		6385	`This is a change in usage. Instead of running the program 'updatenodespec'`
		6386	`the user will need to run 'jats updatenodespec'`
		6387
		6388	`Minor changes:`
		6389	`* SubDir directive`
		6390	`Added a sanity test to detect the case when a 'SubDir' directive specifies`
		6391	`a directory from two different makefiles.`
		6392
		6393	`* Tools: Dependancy generator mkdepend`
		6394	`If an include file was referenced by a symbolic name, then the generated`
		6395	`dependancy information would be wrong for all but the first occurrence`
		6396	`of the file usage.`
		6397
		6398	`* New utility: jats_manifest`
		6399	`Used by the build system to generate and validate source files.`
		6400	`Beta Release: Windows only at the moment`
		6401
		6402	`* Unit tests under SOLARIS_sparc`
		6403	`The LD_LIBRARY_PATH has been modified to correctly pick up libraries`
		6404	`generated within the build and have been installed locally.`
		6405
		6406	`* Default behaviour of JATS the wrapper script`
		6407	`This has been changed. Previous unknown commands were passed to make.`
		6408	`In this release unknown comamnds will be treated a 'etool' commands and`
		6409	`will execute a JATS extended command.`
		6410
		6411
		6412	`Internal Changes:`
		6413	`* Code refactor`
		6414	`Created JatsEnv to encapsulate functionality that was multiply defined.`
		6415
		6416	`* Deployment utilities`
		6417	`The Perl module Ignorelist.pm and the .ccignore file`
		6418	`Changed the mechanism by which this module locates a .ccignore file.`
		6419	`The .ccignore file has been moved to the same directory as the module and`
		6420	`the module can locate the file.`
		6421
		6422	`Previously the module required an environment variable in order to locate`
		6423	`the file, which was in a fixed location anyway.`
		6424
		6425	`* JATS core`
		6426	`Removed the use of the environment variable PERLINC.`
		6427
		6428	`Better parsing of descpkg files.`
		6429
		6430	`* JATS core debugging: JatsError.pm`
		6431	`Allow control over the debug and verbose messages of specific programs`
		6432	`through the use of environment variables.`
		6433
		6434	`A program reporting errors as "name" can be controlled via environment`
		6435	`variables GBE_name_VERBOSE and GBE_name_DEBUG.`
		6436
		6437	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6438	`Modified the subdirectories transferred with this directive to include:`
		6439	`deployfiles - as used by the deployment system`
		6440	`tools/scripts - as used by perl based extensions`
		6441
		6442	`* Make environment`
		6443	`Extended the PERL5LIB path seen by perl programs executed under make to`
		6444	`include 'tools/script' directories that contain Perl Modules.`
		6445
		6446
		6447	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6448	`Version: JATS_2.53.2 Released: 13-Jun-06`
		6449	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6450	`Major changes:`
		6451	`* Deployment. GetMassInstId.rul (From George Christidis)`
		6452	`Added support for SILENT_MODE`
		6453
		6454
		6455	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6456	`Version: JATS_2.53.1 Released: Not release`
		6457	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6458
		6459	`Not Released.`
		6460	`This label waas used as a place keeper. This version was not used as a basis`
		6461	`for JATS_2.53.2. Its much closer to JATS_2.54.0.`
		6462
		6463
		6464	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6465	`Version: JATS_2.53.0 Released: 11-Apr-06`
		6466	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6467	`Major changes:`
		6468	`* Deployment Scripts: Release Manager Database Access`
		6469	`The mechanism for communicating with the Release Manager Database has been`
		6470	`radically replaced.`
		6471
		6472	`A test tool has been added to prove connectivity to Release Manager.`
		6473	`Usage:`
		6474	`jats etool test_rmconnection`
		6475
		6476	`The pervious scripts used DBI::ODBC to communicate with the Oracle`
		6477	`Database that contains Release Manager. There were a number of problems with`
		6478	`this solution:`
		6479	`- Required the installation of two Perl Modules`
		6480	`- Required the installation of an Oracle client`
		6481	`- Required the use of an ODBC bridge machine when used on Solaris`
		6482	`- Support for Perl within Oracle appears to be on the decline`
		6483
		6484	`The solutions uses a Java application and Java's jdbc. The oracle:thin`
		6485	`client is used as this does not require any installation or configuration in`
		6486	`order to work.`
		6487
		6488	`JATS overrides Perl's DBI package with a package of the same name, but`
		6489	`reduced functionality.`
		6490
		6491
		6492	`Minor changes:`
		6493	`* makefile.pl directive: SetValue`
		6494	`Added a '--' option to disable and enable parsing of options.`
		6495	`This allows a value with leading '--' to be set.`
		6496
		6497	`* makefile.pl directive: SetList`
		6498	`Added this directive to formalise the creation and processing of lists`
		6499	`within the makefiles.`
		6500	`Options:`
		6501	`--NoWarn Disable name clash warnings`
		6502	`--Project=xxxx[,xxxx]+ Add to list in selected projects`
		6503	`--Unique Add only if not already present`
		6504	`--Clear Clear list, before adding new items`
		6505	`--Append Append items to list (default)`
		6506	`-- Disable/Enable option parsing`
		6507	`Useage:`
		6508
		6509	`SetList ('*', 'LibList', 'lib1', 'lib2', '--Project=syd');`
		6510	`SharedLib ('*', 'MyDLL', @OBJS, @LibList );`
		6511
		6512	`* Makefile.pl directive: RunTest`
		6513	`Corrected the option of the --CopyIn=file option where the specified file`
		6514	`is not in the current directory.`
		6515
		6516	`* Jats Command: ant'`
		6517	`This command has been extended to make use of the -buildfile=xxxx option`
		6518	`to allow multiple buildfiles to be differentiated.`
		6519
		6520	`eg: jats -buildfile=MyPackage ant`
		6521
		6522	`* TOOLSET: DAFBR Compiler support`
		6523	`Modified the toolset to support an optimisation feature of the next`
		6524	`generation of the daf_br_compiler. These will be enabled if the major version`
		6525	`of the package containing the compiler is greater the "1". ie: 2.0.0.cr`
		6526
		6527	`* Interface helper files: set_XXXX.bat/.sh`
		6528	`Added provision to process user command arguments.`
		6529	`Thus`
		6530
		6531	`set_WIN32.bat prog`
		6532
		6533	`will set the WIN32 environment and run the command: prog`
		6534

		6537	`Version: JATS_2.52.2 Released: 30-Mar-06`
		6538	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6539	`Major changes:`
		6540
		6541	`Minor changes:`
		6542	`* Addressed issue with BUILDNAME, an internal variable.`
		6543	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user build.pl's they need to be`
		6544	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a project`
		6545	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		6546	`$(BUILDNAME) contains two or three space seperated fields - always`
		6547
		6548	`* m16c Toolset - MCRFirmware`
		6549	`Force the generation of .thx and payload files when the .bin files are`
		6550	`created. Previously this only occured in the packaging phase.`
		6551
		6552	`Internal changes:`
		6553	`* JATS toolsets`
		6554	`Added a feature to allow a toolset to flag additional files that get created`
		6555	`as a part of a "Prog". This allows a "Prog" definition to generate a`
		6556	`number of files, some which may be packaged.`
		6557
		6558	`Previously such files where only generated during the packaging phase. Now`
		6559	`they will be generated during the make_prog phase - with the other programs.`
		6560
		6561	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6562	`Version: JATS_2.52.1 Released: 29-Mar-06`
		6563	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6564	`Major changes:`
		6565	`* Jats command: etool`
		6566	`Extended to allow execution of deployment tools. This allows the deployment`
		6567	`tools to use the JATS core perl modules.`
		6568
		6569	`* Address issues with the use of BUILDVER and ScmBuildVer`
		6570	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user makefile.pl's they need to be`
		6571	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a projectt`
		6572	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		6573	`$(BUILDVERSION) contains the project extension - always`
		6574	`$ScmBuildVersion does not contain a project extension - always`
		6575
		6576	`Minor changes:`
		6577
		6578
		6579	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6580	`Version: JATS_2.52.0 Released: 27-Mar-06`
		6581	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6582	`Major changes:`
		6583	`* JATS environment variables`
		6584	`Added GBE_DPKG_STORE`
		6585	`Optionally addresses a dpkg_archive store. This is intended to allow`
		6586	`read only access to a remote repository. The GBE_DPKG_STORE will be`
		6587	`searched after GBE_DPKG. It will be searched last. JATS, be default,`
		6588	`will not publish packages in this repository.`
		6589
		6590	`Uses: Seed repository for a complete build`
		6591	`Remote repository`
		6592
		6593	`Added GBE_DPLY`
		6594	`Optionally addresses a Deployment Archive. This is only used in the`
		6595	`placement of deployment packages. This value may be project specific.`
		6596
		6597	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		6598	`Changes the mechanism used to link against the compiler RTL.`
		6599	`Previously the RTL was included multiple times in the link order. This`
		6600	`created problem with daf_dsi as the function 'time()' was being satisfied by`
		6601	`the RTL before being satisfied by the user libraries.`
		6602
		6603	`The compiler RTL is now treated as a library of last resort. It will be`
		6604	`processed once and it will be processed last.`
		6605
		6606
		6607	`Minor changes:`
		6608	`* JATS utility: build`
		6609	`* JATS utility: cache_dpkg`
		6610	`Extended the package search algorithm to locate a package within`
		6611	`GBE_DPKG_STORE. This archive will be searched last.`
		6612
		6613	`* JATS utility: gen_cots`
		6614	`Ensure label is not locked`
		6615	`Add option to allow user to specify source directory other than a package`
		6616	`that already exists in dpkg_archive.`
		6617
		6618	`* JATS directive: PackageFile`
		6619	`Now supports --Prod and --Debug options to limit the packaging process`
		6620	`to a specific type of build.`
		6621
		6622	`* JATS directive: GenerateFiles and RunTests`
		6623	`Added a --PackageInfo() replacement tag to allow package version information`
		6624	`to be extracted and passed to generator programs.`
		6625	`ie: --PackageInfo(sysbasetypes,syd,--fullversion)`
		6626
		6627	`Extended the --PackageBase() replacement tag to work with packages such as`
		6628	`sysbasetypes, where there is a .cr and a .syd type.`
		6629	`ie: --PackageBase(sysbasetypes,syd)`
		6630
		6631	`* JATS utility: release`
		6632	`Under windows, ensure that the directory C:\Clearcase exists. There have`
		6633	`been installations of Clearcase where this is directory does not exist.`
		6634
		6635	`* JATS utility: label`
		6636	`Added option: "-comment=Text" to allow a comment to be added to a label,`
		6637	`when it is being created.`
		6638
		6639	`Internal Changes`
		6640	`* JATS utility: create_dpkg`
		6641	`Refactored code to use JATS DescPkg class.`
		6642
		6643	`Added options to allow packaging to the various archives. This is of no use`
		6644	`to the normal developer, but will be used within the complete build system.`
		6645
		6646	`* Factored out the parsing of the BuildName directive`
		6647	`This process was being done in 3 locations - and there were getting`
		6648	`different results.`
		6649
		6650	`* ToolsetRequire directive`
		6651	`This has been extended to allow JATS to locate Toolset extensions within`
		6652	`packages. They should be placed within the tool/scripts directory`
		6653
		6654	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6655	`Version: JATS_2.51.0 Released: 15-Mar-06`

		6664	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6665	`Major changes:`
		6666	`* WIN32 utilities`
		6667	`Replaced a number of the Windows utilities ( cp, rm, mv ...)`
		6668	`with versions from the GNUWin32 project.`
		6669
		6670	`The 'cp' previously used could not recursively copy large directories`
		6671	`under Windows Server 2003, when both the source and destination are on the`
		6672	`same drive. ( dpkg_cache of ace ).`
		6673
		6674	`Minor changes:`
		6675	`* BuildVersion`
		6676	`The definition of VERSION_BUILD within the generated version-defs.h file`
		6677	`will have leading zeros removed, thus allowing it to be used within a 'C'`
		6678	`program without the number being interpreted as an octal constant.`
		6679
		6680	`The string form (VERSION_BUILD_STR) will retain the zeros.`
		6681
		6682	`* Unix Builds`
		6683	`Corrected several issues encountered when specifying the name of a static`
		6684	`library or a shared library.`
		6685
		6686	`JATS will prepend 'lib' to the user specified library name. Problems occurred`
		6687	`when the user specified a library name that started with 'lib'. Now, on Unix`
		6688	`systems, JATS will only prepend 'lib' if the library name does not already`
		6689	`start with 'lib'.`
		6690
		6691	`* BuildPkgArchive`
		6692	`Since 2.45.0 JATS will only transfer files for the BuildPkgArchive, if`
		6693	`they have not already been transferred. Added a test for the source`
		6694	`package being updated and then forceing the copy to be repeated.`
		6695
		6696	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6697	`Version: JATS_2.49.0 Released: 10-Feb-06`
		6698	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6699	`Major changes:`
		6700	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		6701	`Corrected a problem with the dependencies between a .REL file and the target`
		6702	`THX file. If the .REL files was modified the output THX file did not get`
		6703	`regenerated. This was only a problem in cases where the .REL file was`
		6704	`being manually maintained.`
		6705
		6706
		6707	`Minor changes:`
		6708	`* MakeAnt directive`
		6709	`Introduced a check to ensure that this directive is only used with a toolset`
		6710	`that can handle an 'ant' build file. Currently only the JAVA toolset`
		6711	`supports ANT builds.`
		6712
		6713	`* BuildPkgArchive directive`
		6714	`Correct problem in the caching of BuildPkgArchive packages in the case where`
		6715	`there is no GBE_DPKG_LOCAL on the machine.`
		6716
		6717	`* Label utility`
		6718	`Added a 'files=filename,filename' option to allow only specified`
		6719	`files to be labeled.`

		6722	`Corrected problem in which Java Manifest files were not parsed correctly`
		6723	`on Solaris.`
		6724
		6725	`* Generated makefiles`
		6726	`Fix a bug with the CompilerOptions that allowed a '0' definition to be set to`
		6727	`nothing.`
		6728
		6729	`* MOS Toolset`
		6730	`Added 'CompileOptions' of CcSupervisor.`
		6731	`This will set a MOS internal definition suitable for building specialised`
		6732	`modules.`
		6733
		6734	`* Utility: gen_cots`
		6735	`This utility will create a JATS buildable package froma dpkg_archive entry`
		6736	`and then check it in under clearcase.`
		6737
		6738	`JATS etool gen_cots -man will provide only help.`

		6747	`None`
		6748
		6749	`Minor changes:`
		6750	`* DEVI addressed`
		6751	`DEVI-022055 JATS builds DLLs with wrong copyright symbol in version resource`
5710	dpurdie	6752	`DEVI-022054 JATS puts "VIX Group test" in Product Name of Windows resource`
227	dpurdie	6753
		6754	`* Utility: release (cbuild)`
		6755	`Added an option to create a view configured to work with a branching`
		6756	`rule. A single branch can be named with the -branch option. eg:`
		6757
		6758	`jats release -extract 'label' -branch SITS_LEGACY_BRANCH`
		6759
		6760	`will create a view based on the named label, but suitable for creating`
		6761	`a patch for Sydney Legacy work.`
		6762
		6763	`* RunTest directive`
		6764	`The 'PATH' that the test uses is extended to allow access to programs that have`
		6765	`been installed with a InstallProg directive. This allows a test script to`
		6766	`test a program that is generated elsewhere within the package.`
		6767
		6768	`* PackageFile, Option --DirTree`
		6769	`Support for filenames that contain a "$" or a ' ' within the`
		6770	`--DirTree option. Implemented to allow entire JAVA class trees to be`
		6771	`packaged under JATS`
		6772
		6773	`Note: In general the use of a $ and space within a filename is not`
		6774	`supported within JATS.`
		6775
		6776	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		6777	`Added an eprog option. The allows any program to be run within the`
		6778	`sanitized environment provided by JATS.`
		6779
		6780	`The specified program may be in the current directory or the user's`
		6781	`PATH. If the program is a perl script then it will be run with the`
		6782	`JATS perl interpreter, otherwise it will be processed by the system.`
		6783
		6784	`Eg: jats eprog myscript arg1 arg2`
		6785	`Eg: jats ant`
		6786
		6787	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		6788	`Added an 'ant' command. ( "jats ant" )`
		6789
5710	dpurdie	6790	`This will run an VIX ANT build by scanning the current directory for a file`
227	dpurdie	6791	`called <ProjectName>depends.xml and then looking the a file called`
		6792	`<ProjectName>.xml. Jats will then create 'auto.xml' based on the`
		6793	`<ProjectName>depends.xml file and use ant to invoke the`
		6794	`<ProjectName>.xml file.`
		6795
5710	dpurdie	6796	`If the VIX build files cannot be found then ant is simply run and it will`
227	dpurdie	6797	`expect a build.pl file.`
		6798
		6799	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		6800	`Force the environment variable PERL5INC to be unset.`
		6801
		6802	`* Jats utility: create_dpkg`
		6803	`Simplify handling of ANT based projects. Look for the package within`
		6804	`the build/pkg subdirectory, in the JANTS style.`
		6805
		6806	`* Utility: gen_winrc (DEVI-022054)`
		6807	`Added a "'-product=text'" option to allow the product name to be specified.`
		6808
		6809	`* Build files`
		6810	`Handle the java generated descpkg files. These are a Manifest format with`
5710	dpurdie	6811	`VIX extensions.`

		6813	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6814	`Version: JATS_2.47.0 Released: 20-Dec-05`
		6815	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6816	`Major changes:`
		6817	`* BuildVersion directive in build.pl`
		6818	`Correct a problem in the generation of version.c`
		6819	`The function GetModuleInfo() would return a string with a trailing`
		6820	`space when the 'array' mode was selected.`
		6821
		6822	`This may cause module validation to fail.`
		6823
		6824	`Minor changes:`
		6825	`* None`
		6826
		6827	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6828	`Version: JATS_2.46.0 Released: 08-Dec-05`
		6829	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6830	`Major changes:`
		6831	`* BuildProduct and BuildPlatforms directives`
		6832	`Added option --Uses=NAME`
		6833	`ie:`
		6834	`BuildProduct ( 'OBFTP,--Uses=TP5', 'MOSCF' );`
		6835
		6836	`This will create a OBFTP_MOSCF platform that will 'use' TP5`
		6837	`headers and libraries if none are specifically provided for the`
		6838	`OBFTP. It is the users responsibily to ensure that the two build`
		6839	`environments are compatible.`
		6840
		6841
		6842	`Minor changes:`
		6843	`* BuildName option`
		6844	`Modifications to allow the creation of COTS packages with buildnames`
5710	dpurdie	6845	`that do not confirm to the VIX naming scheme (--RelaxedVersion).`
227	dpurdie	6846
		6847	`* jats.bat`
		6848	`Ensure that GBE_BIN is not defined`
		6849	`It will be set by the jats.pl to a fully qualified path.`
		6850
		6851	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6852	`Version: JATS_2.45.0 Released: 29-Nov-05`
		6853	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6854	`Major changes:`
		6855	`* BuildPkgArchive directive`
		6856	`The operation of the BuildPkgArchive directive has been modified`
		6857	`so that a package will only be installed once. This significantly`
		6858	`speeds up multiple 'build' operations.`
		6859
		6860	`If the package is being extracted from the 'local archive', then`
		6861	`this mechanism is suppressed as packages in the local archive are`
		6862	`considered as under development and are subject to change.`
		6863
		6864	`If package cache is being refreshed, then the package will be`
		6865	`installed a second time. Thus it is possible to force the package to`
		6866	`be transferred into the 'interface' directory.`
		6867
		6868	`A BuildTags directory is used to track packages that have been`
		6869	`transferred.`
		6870
		6871	`* Internal changes to factor common code into a group of packages.`
		6872	`See notes below.`
		6873
		6874	`* WIN32 toolset`
		6875	`Allow the Microsoft preprocessor directive #import to operate`
		6876	`correctly.`
		6877
		6878	`Export the complete library search path into the build environment`
		6879	`for all Microsoft command, not just the linker and library commands.`
		6880
		6881	`* BuildVersion`
		6882	`Modifications to allow the generation of version files for C#`
		6883	`The mechanism has been extended to allow version information for`
		6884	`other langauges as needed.`
		6885
		6886
		6887	`Minor changes:`
		6888	`* Utility: gen_winrc.pl`
		6889	`Will extracted build number from the patch number, if present.`
		6890	`This information will be available to be placed into the generation`
		6891	`version strings.`
		6892
		6893	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		6894	`Fixed a problem detecting programs that were not in the local`
		6895	`package or an imported package.`
		6896
		6897	`* Toolsets: MOS_MRI`
		6898	`Generate an error if required tools are not found.`
		6899	`Previously this condition would generate a warning.`
		6900
		6901	`* BuildPkgArchive and LinkPkgArchive directives`
		6902	`Ensure that packages are only included once. The previous check`
		6903	`was half-hearted and could allow multiple packages of the same`
		6904	`version to be included. This could result in badly formed`
		6905	`makefiles and strange error messages.`
		6906
		6907	`Internal Changes`
		6908	`* Started to factor out internal packages and place them into a common`
		6909	`directory. This will allow common error handling thoughout the suite`
		6910	`of utilities.`
		6911
		6912	`Modified all utilities to utilize the common error reporting`
		6913	`functions.`
		6914
		6915	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6916	`Version: JATS_2.44.0 Released: 18-Nov-05`
		6917	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6918	`Major changes:`
		6919	`* Generated makefiles`
		6920	`Modified the windows shell to remove the use of the EXTENDED_LINE`
		6921	`cache. This did not work. Modified the extend.lst file to ensure`
		6922	`that sed did not process its arguments.`
		6923
		6924	`This has been done to address a problem seen within test scripts`
		6925	`within unit tests that use wildcard expansion. The windows shell was`
		6926	`incorrectly processing:`
		6927	`sed '-es~.*WIN32~~'`
		6928	`The '.*' construct was being seen as a wildcard and the shell was`
		6929	`then putting the argument into a command file - it was totally`
		6930	`confused.`
		6931
		6932	`NOTE: Attempted to remove use of EXTENDED_LINE, but this caused a`
		6933	`breakage with the DOS based gcc compiler( ie:H8S and others).`
		6934	`The construct`
		6935	`-D__SOURCE__=\"name\"`
		6936	`was corrupted somewhere. If the command is put in a command file,`
		6937	`then it works.`
		6938
		6939	`* MakeAnt directive`
		6940	`Added option: --GeneratedFile=PathOfFile`
		6941
		6942	`This option has the following effects`
		6943	`1) Marks the file a source file. It is then known to JATS and`
		6944	`can be used installed and manipulated.`
		6945
		6946	`2) Schedules the processing of the ANT build to be done`
		6947	`early - in the generated files phase.`
		6948
		6949	`Intended use. The creation of packages with a JNI. The Java`
		6950	`component needs to generate a header file early.`
		6951
		6952
		6953	`Minor changes:`
		6954	`* JATS post-installation script`
		6955	`Flag deployment tools and libraries as executable.`
		6956
		6957	`* Detection of extension type is case insensitive for non-unix`
		6958	`systems. Thus .h and .H files will considered header files in`
		6959	`windows.`
		6960
		6961	`* Build.pl rewrite tool`
		6962	`Handle all variants of BuildName`
		6963
		6964	`* Jats wrapper script`
		6965	`Generate an error if the JATS configuration variables are not usable`
		6966	`1) Contain spaces`
		6967	`2) Start with a // - Remote drives must be mapped`
		6968
		6969	`* Toolset`
		6970	`Added a 'LINUX' platform.`
		6971
		6972	`* JAVA toolset`
		6973	`Ensure the that build file passed via MakeAnt contains the following`
		6974	`directive:`
		6975
		6976	`includeAntRuntime="off"'`
		6977
		6978	`This MUST be used to ensure that ANT's classpath is not passed to`
		6979	`the java compiler thus ensuring that the compiler does not use ANT's`
		6980	`version of any JAR files that have not been specified by the user.`
		6981
		6982	`* GCC Toolset`
		6983	`Use -Map name to create map files as needed for GCC under Debian`
		6984
		6985	`* Makefile generation`
		6986	`When packages are used by name to resolve package location JATS`
		6987	`has been modified to use the package name specified by the user.`
		6988	`Previously JATS would use the package name found within the`
		6989	`descpkg file. In cases where the descpkg file was badly formed the`
		6990	`package could not be used.`
		6991
		6992	`* Unit Tests`
		6993	`The following environment variables are set:`
		6994
		6995	`GBE_TYPE - The type of build. Debug or production. This`
		6996	`will be set to either a 'P' or 'D'`
		6997
		6998	`GBE_HOST - The host machine we are running on.`
		6999	`This will be set to 'WIN' or Unix'`
		7000
		7001	`These variable should assist in the production of test scripts.`
		7002
		7003	`* New makefile.pl directive: SetValue`
		7004
		7005
		7006	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7007	`Version: JATS_2.43.0 Released: 01-Nov-05`
		7008	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7009	`Major changes:`
		7010	`* New Platform : "MCR" using the Mitsubishi m16c compiler.`
		7011
		7012	`Special features of this toolset.`
		7013	`1) A .THX source file will be converted to an obtect file`
		7014	`This allows processing of fonts within a THX file to be`
		7015	`incorporated within the target image.`
		7016
		7017	`2) Prog directive extensions:`
		7018	`--Set=Name=Value`
		7019	`The 'Name' is set to 'Value' at link time.`
		7020	`This allows the location of program segments to be set`
		7021
		7022	`--Ref=name`
		7023	`The name of a Release file. If provided, it will be used`
		7024	`to provide information that will be placed within the`
		7025	`THX header. The version number will be ignored. It`
		7026	`will be taken from the build version number.`
		7027
		7028	`Minor changes:`
		7029	`* MOS Toolset`
		7030	`Create the VisionClick files when the THX file is created.`
		7031	`Previously the files were created when the THX was installed or`
		7032	`packaged.`
		7033
		7034	`* Src directive`
		7035	`No generates a warning if no source files are located within the`
		7036	`directive. This is normally the result of a missing platform`
		7037	`specifier.`
		7038
		7039	`* WIN32 runtime support`
		7040	`Added the following 'Unix' style utilities to assist in testing.`
		7041	`1) od - dump files in octal and other formats`
		7042	`2) cmp - compare two files byte by byte`
		7043
		7044	`Internal:`
		7045	`Added an extension to allow the target toolset to handle the "Prog"`
		7046	`dependancy generation if required. This allow complex program`
		7047	`generation mechanisms to be handled by the toolset.`
		7048
		7049	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7050	`Version: JATS_2.42.0 Released: 19-Oct-05`

		7052	`Major changes:`
		7053	`* BuildAlias directive`
		7054	`Added options.`
		7055	`--Define - Does not create implicit platforms`
		7056	`--Target - Redeclares the alais as the list of all`
		7057	`platforms that are based on a given target or`
		7058	`targets.`
		7059	`Eg:`
		7060	`BuildAlias ( 'LMOS,--Target', 'LMOS_WIN32', 'LMOS_linux_armv4' );`
		7061	`BuildProduct ( 'GAK', 'LMOS', 'MOS68K', 'MOSCF' );`
		7062	`BuildProduct ( 'PCP', 'LMOS', 'MOS68K' );`
		7063
		7064	`Will export an alias of LMOS that can be used within makefile.pl's`
		7065	`that will be the list of all platforms that have a target of`
		7066	`'LMOS_WIN32' or 'LMOS_linux_armv4'.`
		7067
		7068	`Note the dual use of LMOS within the example. This is intentional.`
		7069	`The LMOS alias is used within the BuildProduct to simplify the`
		7070	`specification of all the LMOS targets.`
		7071
		7072
		7073	`Minor changes:`
		7074	`* Label utility`
		7075	`Will generate a warning message if it labels more than one`
		7076	`build.pl file`
		7077
		7078	`* Package directives. PackageFile.`
		7079	`Corrected a problem with wildcard expansion in which a --FilterIn`

		7081	`Now all files in the tree are considered 'in' unless modified by the`
		7082	`--FilterIn option.`
		7083
		7084	`* jats release (cbuilder) utility`
		7085	`Correct use of the -prodOnly and -debugOnly flags.`
		7086	`The full name was not accepted; -debug and -prod was.`
		7087
		7088	`* Location of descpkg file`
		7089	`All makefile.pl's now know where the package descpkg file was`
		7090	`created. This simplifies the process og packaging this file as it`
		7091	`can be done within any makefile.pl.`

		7093	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7094	`Version: JATS_2.41.0 Released: 27-Sep-05`

		7097	`* RunTest directive`
		7098	`Extended the options and operation of RunTest`
		7099	`Additional options`
		7100	`--CopyIn=file`
		7101	`This will copy the specified file into the BIN directory before`
		7102	`the test is run. The file will be marked as executable. This`
		7103	`allows scripts and configuration files to be transferred into`
		7104	`the test area.`
		7105
		7106	`Additional operations`
		7107	`The arguments passed to the script/program allow a number of`
		7108	`transformations, similar to GenerateFiles. Transforms`
		7109	`--File(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a known file`
		7110	`--Local(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a file that has been Installed`
		7111	`--PackageBase(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a Package`
		7112	`Allows flags:`
		7113	`--dir - directory part of the pathname`
		7114	`--file - file part of the pathname`
		7115	`--abspath - as an absolute path`
		7116	`--absdrive - as an absolute path with drive letter (Windows)`
		7117
		7118	`Files and directories are prerequisites of the test. Their`
		7119	`existence is tested.`
		7120
		7121	`* Packaging Directives`
		7122	`Added a --Derived option to support the packaging of derived targets`
		7123	`such as LMOS.`
		7124
		7125	`PackageHdr ('*', 'file1.h', '--Derived=LMOS');`

		7136
		7137	`BuildPlatforms ( 'JAVA,--Version=1.5' );`
		7138
		7139	`The default will use the default machine version of JAVA.`
		7140	`This may not be sutable for all packages.`
		7141
		7142	`Non-default versions of JAVA require that an environment variable be`
		7143	`set to the root of the JDK directory. These are:`
		7144
		7145	`JAVA_HOME_1_4`
		7146	`JAVA_HOME_1_5`
		7147
		7148	`Minor changes:`

		7151	`These scripts are now always marked as executable.`
		7152
		7153	`* JATS environment`
		7154	`Ensure that all programs run under JATS in Windows have an uppercase`
		7155	`COMSPEC envvar. Windows appears to define a mixed case one. Fixed in`
		7156	`the JATS wrapper script.`
		7157
		7158	`* Label utility`
		7159	`Added -[no]checkout to control the labeling of checked out files.`

		7195	`The filters are regular expressions. Examples:`
		7196
		7197	`'--FilterIn=\.h$' - Select all files ending with .h`
		7198	`'--FilterOut=MyHeader.h' - Except this one`
		7199
		7200	`The --StripDir option will remove the TreeDir directory from the`

		7234	`restricted by options within the build.`
		7235
		7236	`* PackageLib, InstallLib and MergeLib directives in makefile.pl`
		7237	`The use of @LIBS and @MLIBS in unix systems was causing a`
		7238	`problem as these variables already had a 'lib' prepended to the`
		7239	`list of libraries. These directives would add another 'lib' to the`
		7240	`list of libraries under unix causing a mismatch.`
		7241
		7242	`Corrected by stripping liblib from the names within these`
		7243	`directives.`
		7244
		7245	`* MakeProject directive`
		7246	`If the project build fails the log file was not being displayed`
		7247	`because 'make' stops when a command fails.`
		7248
		7249	`The MakeProject operations have been modified to ensure that the`
		7250	`log file is always displayed. The exit code of the build command`
		7251	`is preserved.`
		7252
		7253	`* Auto build utility jats-rewrite.pl`
		7254	`Modified to support the rewrite of Java 'using' and 'project'`
		7255	`statements.`

		7257	`* Mugfile generation`
		7258	`Added a --ThxDir=xxxx option to allow the THX and load files to`
		7259	`be placed in the target package.`

		7270	`The patch number is decoded into a patch number and a build`
		7271	`number.`
		7272
		7273	`Minor changes:`
		7274	`* AddFlags directives`
		7275	`Added a --NoWarn option that will suppress the warning of`
		7276	`duplicate flags being added.`
		7277
		7278	`* GBE_CORE environment variable (Windows)`
		7279	`Ensure that GBE_CORE has a driver letter. This allows use of JATS`
		7280	`loaded into the same dynamic view as the user code.`
		7281
		7282	`* Mug File Generation`
		7283	`Added support to allow load files to include other load files.`
		7284
		7285	`* 'cbuild' or 'release' command`
		7286	`Added a -latestroot=xxxx option. This is a work around for the`

		7288	`labeled. After using this switch add the label to the root`
		7289	`directory.`
		7290
		7291	`The need to use this this switch indicates that the view is NOT`
		7292	`reproducible.`

		7321	`Enhanced (thanks Ross) to allow PATH information for various`
		7322	`target platforms to be extracted.`

		7324	`Better support for Product families. This is only an issue`
		7325	`for WIN32 derived families due to the generation of a list of`
		7326	`libraries. The list now observes Product hierarchy.`
		7327
		7328	`* Utility: release (cbuilder)`

227	dpurdie	7356	`-- Auto.`
		7357

		7361
		7362	`* Make run_test and run_unit_test operation`
		7363	`The search path for DLL's or Shared Libraries is extended to`
		7364	`include all Shared Libraries in the build package list as well`

		7366	`locate required Shared Libraries at runtime.`
		7367
		7368	`* WIN32 targets built using Visual Studio 6`
		7369	`The path to the compiler is setup within JATS. It is no longer`

		7371	`indeterminate when multiple versions of Visual Studio are`
		7372	`installed on the machine.`
		7373
		7374	`* WINCE Targets`
		7375	`The name of the SDK is case sensitive.`

		7392
		7393	`* UNIX Platforms (SOLARIS and LINUX)`
		7394	`Modification to allow BuildProduct and BuildPkgArchive to`
		7395	`interwork. Previously BuildPkgArchive packages were placed into`
		7396	`the 'interface/lib/SOLARIS' subdirectory and this was not being`

		7411
		7412	`Also prevent warnings on duplicate files if the package is`

		7456	`* Jats wrapper script`
		7457	`Windows: Ensure that cmd.exe is in the users PATH. Without cmd.exe`

		7460
		7461	`* LinkPkgArchive and BuildPkgArchive`
		7462	`Processing soft links. Generate a warnings if a package soft`

		7490
		7491	`* MakeAnt directive`
		7492	`Now supports --Debug and --Prod options to limit the building of`
		7493	`ANT files. The MakeAnt directive is only going to work in`

		7531	`* Support for Windows DLLs`
		7532	`When building a WIN32 target the file interface/set_WIN32.bat is`

		7581	`force LinkPkgArchive directives to be interpreted as`

		7612	`Multiple platforms should be specified as:`
		7613	`Src( 'PLAT1,PLAT2,PLAT3', .... );`
		7614	`with only a comma between the platforms: No whitespace`
		7615	`If whitespace did exist then the makefile.pl would not do what`
		7616	`was expected - and it would not warn the user. The simplest`
		7617	`solution was to allow whitespace either side of the comma.`
		7618
		7619	`* GenerateFiles directive within makefile.pl`
		7620	`Allow 3 different bracket styles for the arguments to allow for`

		7696	`The PDB files created when compiling objects for DLLs are now not`

		7860
		7861	`* LinkPkgArchive and BuildPkgArchive will cause the build to fail if`

		8173	`BuildName ('package_name', 'nn.nn.nn.xxx' );`
		8174
		8175	`* MOS68K and MOSCF toolset.`
		8176	`Extended the --board option to allow the user to define code and`
		8177	`data addresses for the board.`
		8178
		8179	`BuildProduct( 'TP5', 'MOSCF','--board=01234H,05678H' );`
		8180
		8181	`Will set the code,data address for the debugable image`
		8182
		8183	`* Extended the PackageXxxxx options`
		8184	`1) Allow --Platform=xxx,yyy`
		8185	`Where xxx is a directory prefix and yyy is suffix to the`
		8186	`"platform" name. Only useful within the context of the`
		8187	`PackageFile`
		8188
		8189	`2) The operation of --Platform=xxx when used by the PackageFile`
		8190	`directive now treats the xxx directory as a prefix to the`
		8191	`platform name. Other Package directives still treat it as a`
		8192	`suffix. In practice this is the logical use.`
		8193
		8194	`* Allow InstallLib and PackageLib to install a file that has been`
		8195	`discovered with a "Src" directive. This allows generated files`
		8196	`to be installed and packaged.`
		8197
		8198	`Minor changes:`
		8199
		8200	`* cache_dpkg utility`
		8201	`If a package is found in the local_dpkg_archive then the cache`
		8202	`entry will be deleted and the master archive will not be accessed.`
		8203
		8204	`* label utility`
		8205	`New option -auto to create and label`
		8206
		8207	`* Build WIN32 and WinCe Mutual DLLs with all the object files`
		8208	`This allows the generated import library to contain C++ names`
		8209
		8210	`* The BuildDirTree directive now supports an empty first argument`
		8211	`This allows a NULL tree.dir file, while still creating the root`
		8212	`directory. ie:`
		8213
		8214	`BuildDirTree ( '', 'pkg' );`
		8215
		8216	`* Fixed DEVIM 00019520`
		8217	`The problem was that /bin/pwd could return a different path to`
		8218	`the Cwd:getpwd() function. Solution: Use one mechanism throughout.`
		8219
		8220
		8221	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8222	`Version: JATS_2.9.0 Released: 28-Feb-05`
		8223	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8224	`Major changes:`
		8225	`* First release for Back Office and Front Office use.`
		8226
		8227	`* Added the jats tool jats_rewrite.pl to rewrite build.pl files.`
		8228	`To be used by the nightly build process.`
		8229
		8230	`* Work around a problem in the Microtec 68K compiler.`
		8231	`The compiler uses temp files. If the temp file name that the`
		8232	`compiler uses already exists, then the compiler will not delete`
		8233	`the file. Instead it appends information to the existing file.`
		8234
		8235	`The workaround is to create the temp files within the build's`
		8236	`interface directory and to remove all temp files before each`
		8237	`compilation.`
		8238
		8239	`This bug does not affect the Mictotec CF compiler.`
		8240
		8241	`Minor changes:`
		8242	`* The "jats clobber" command will remove version definition file, if`
		8243	`one is being produced.`
		8244
		8245	`* Using JATS within a Visual Studio project. The "rebuild all"`
		8246	`option now translates to the JATS unbuild command to do a better`
		8247	`job of cleaning the workspace.`
		8248
		8249	`* Added GetPackageRoot() directive to support the packaging of MOS`
		8250
		8251	`* Generate error message for misuse of the SubDir directive`
		8252
		8253	`* Modified BuildName to allow an '-' in the name.`
		8254	`This provides backward compatibility with existing packages.`
		8255
		8256	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8257	`Version: JATS_2.8.0 Released: 17-Feb-05`
		8258	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8259	`Major changes:`
		8260	`* Added some new WINCE based targets. These require WINCE SDKs to be`
		8261	`installed in order for the compilers to work.`
		8262
		8263	`* New PLATFORMS are WCEIT3000, WCEPA961 and WCEPCM7220`
		8264
		8265	`* All invocations of xmake specify the name of the makefile`
		8266	`This allow GNUMakefiles and the Jats makefiles to exist in the`
		8267	`same directory`
		8268
		8269	`* Overcome a limitation of the Microtec compiler in which the flag`
		8270	`_DEBUG is defined enev in production builds - contrary to the`
		8271	`documenattion.`
		8272
		8273	`Minor changes:`
		8274	`* Process of descpkg files allows for both Unix and DOS line endings`
		8275	`Under Unix JATS would report that the package names don't match`
		8276
		8277	`* Corrected a problem with BuildPkgArchive in which file names with`
		8278	`spaces could not be soft linked. Only affects Unix systems.`
		8279
		8280	`* Added a -rename to the "jats label" utility.`
		8281	`Ensure that the user specified label exists in the VOB`
		8282
		8283	`* Correct problem with "make clean" that resulted in a verbose display`
		8284	`when the verbose option had not been selected`
		8285
		8286	`* Correct a problem with "make unbuild". Changes in the build files`
		8287	`would prevent the execution of the command. This command should`
		8288	`be exempt from this test.`
		8289
		8290	`* Correct a problem with "make clean" in the WIN32 and WINCE`
		8291	`platforms where the .exp files were not deleted.`
		8292
		8293	`* The "JATS clobber" command now invokes "make clobber" and "build`
		8294	`clobber". The result is as clean a clean as it can be.`
		8295
		8296	`Note: Jats "clean" does not remove a lot of files. These can be`
		8297	`removed with "unbuild" and "unpackage". This is what "clobber"`
		8298	`does.`
		8299
		8300	`* The operation of "build clobber" has been cleaned up. It will`
		8301	`not try to invoke make if the makefiles have already been removed.`
		8302
		8303
		8304	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8305	`Version: JATS_2.7.0 Released: 09-Feb-05`
		8306	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8307	`Major changes:`
		8308	`* First release with support for the DAFBR compiler`
		8309
		8310	`* Extended MergeLibrary. Added per-file options of:`
		8311	`--Interface - Pull lib from Interface directory`
		8312	`--Local - Pull lib from Local directory (default)`
		8313	`--SubDir=pathname - Pull lib from a subdirectory`
		8314	`Note: xxxx,pathname still works`
		8315
		8316	`* Added "jats label" to provide a number of useful labeling`
		8317	`operations.`
		8318
		8319	`* Added extensive help to JATS. JATS -man.`
		8320
		8321	`* Added this manual ChangeLog file`
		8322
		8323	`Minor changes`
		8324	`* Added an 'ebin' command to jats to allow the JATS binary tools to`
		8325	`be run in a controlled environment from the command line.`
		8326
		8327	`* Prune the list of library paths passed through to the various`
		8328	`toolsets. If a directory does not have any files in it then the`
		8329	`directory is not added to the library path.`
		8330
		8331	`Thus if a library is located in xxxx/lib/WIN32 then JATS will`
		8332	`not add the xxxx/lib to the path.`
		8333
		8334	`* cbuilder will now look in all VOBs for the user specified label.`
		8335	`The program has a list of "known" labels which it will search`
		8336	`first in an attempt to speed up the process.`
		8337
		8338	`* The AddFlags directive will issue a warning if the flags does not`
		8339	`begin with a -D or a -U. The user should not be using compiler`
		8340	`specific flags.`
		8341
		8342	`* The use of linker flags will issue a warning.`
		8343
		8344	`* Process the common makefile.pl after the toolset has been`
		8345	`determined. This allows the toolset to extend the CompileOptions`
		8346	`such they are available to the common makefile.pl.`
		8347
		8348	`* Added the WIN32 CompileOptions "jats_v1" to force JATS to specify`
		8349	`a number of compile time definitions used by earlier versions of`
		8350	`JATS.`
		8351
		8352	`* Fixed bug in the --Debug option to the PackageProg directives that`
		8353	`caused both the production and debug versions to be packaged.`
		8354
		8355	`* The gen_msproject utility now creates simpler names for the MS`
		8356	`projects that it creates. The name no longer contains the full`
		8357	`pathname, thus making them shorter and readable.`
		8358
		8359	`* The ShowDlls utility now handles absolute and relative paths to`
		8360	`the initial DLL or EXE.`
		8361
		8362	`* Correct problem in which the use of Generate/Rule directives may`
		8363	`fail since prerequisite subdirectories were not being created`
		8364	`since the "generate" phase was not being run.`
		8365
		8366	`Added messages to prompt the user to remove Generate, Generated`
		8367	`and Rule directives. Use the GenerateFiles directive`
		8368
		8369	`* JATS.BAT file will exclude LINUX builds by default.`
		8370
		8371	`* The make NODEPEND=1 processing now does not recurse at all.`
		8372	`Previously each subdirectory was visited - only to do nothing.`
		8373
		8374	`* Correct a problem in creating stub libraries for MOS targets if`
		8375	`the stub library object was not listed with the SharedLib's`
		8376	`objects.`
		8377
		8378	`* Correct a problem with the MS Studio support. The invoked make`
		8379	`command is XXX_all_debug. There was a problem with this command in`
		8380	`that it did not do any dependancy checking and would not always`
		8381	`build defendants.`
