		1416	`Warning generation of bad source paths does not generate an error`

		1815	`as the main binary.`
		1816
		1817	`This methodology does not bloat the binary with debug information, while`
		1818	`retaining debug information. The binary transferred to an embedded`
		1819	`device does not contain debug information, yet the image used in the`
		1820	`debugger can still access the debug information. This is the best of`
		1821	`both worlds.`

		2637
		2638	`* Jats save_build utility`
		2639	`Corrected problem in unreserving a reserved checkout of a build.pl file`
		2640	`under windows.`
		2641
		2642	`* Solaris 10, 64 Bit Sparc Builds`
		2643	`All compiles are done in a position independent manner (-KPIC)`
		2644	`This solved issues where static libraries are linked into shared`
		2645	`libraries.`
		2646
		2647	`* Solaris builds`
		2648	`Program and Shared library dependency checking is now done before`
		2649	`the program/library objects are built. Thus errors associated with missing`
		2650	`dependencies occur before objects are built and the user can see the cause`
		2651	`of the build failure.`
		2652
		2653
		2654	`Internal changes:`
		2655	`* Moved 'jats vars' functionality into a separate program`

		2659	`PkgArchive topics.`

		2718	`Useful side effects include:`
		2719
		2720	`JATS plugins will be sourced from the interface directory if included`

		2729
313	dpurdie	2730	`* Perl Modules`
		2731	`Included the most recent version of the Pod module within the JATS`

		2748
		2749	`* Jats label utility`
		2750	`Changes to assist in tracking down clearcase labeling errors`
		2751
		2752	`Once labels have been applied a check is done to ensure that`
		2753	`the labels have been placed. The check is to attempt to find`
		2754	`new files and folders to label - there should be none.`
		2755
		2756	`* Jats core`
		2757	`Improved the auto location of the base directory of the build to allow`

		2770
309	dpurdie	2771	`The cmdfile utility creates paths with file path separators as discovered`
307	dpurdie	2772	`in the PATH EnvVar. Now that PATH is nice it means that the use of cmdfile`
309	dpurdie	2773	`to create shell scripts resulted in scripts with unsuitable separators.`
307	dpurdie	2774

		2803
		2804	`WCEPSION_500_VS2005 build cannot consume build artifacts from the`
		2805	`WCEPSION_500. The two are separate.`

		2808	`Currently only the WCEPSION_500_VS2005 is fully supported`

		2817
		2818	`* MOS builds`

		2877	`Changes are transparent to users.`

		2880	`as an error. The Microtec tools sets will create a 'pop-up' if`
		2881	`this occurs.`
		2882
		2883	`* The LinkSandbox directive is not allowed when GBE_ABT is set.`
		2884	`This directive is highly discouraged in development: Use a jats 'sandbox'`

		2887

		2900	`* Jats Command line and -java option`
		2901	`This version will place the specified java's 'bin' directory into`

		2969
		2970	`See Jats Reference Manual for complete details and Delphi specific options`
		2971	`to the Prog and SharedLib directives.`
		2972
		2973	`This toolset has a number of limitations:`
		2974	`1) It can build either Debug or Production, but not both, in a single`
		2975	`makefile.pl. This is caused by the Delphi limitation that library`
		2976	`names cannot be changed.`
		2977
		2978	`2) The generation of dependencies between the source and the generated`
		2979	`artifacts is very simplistic.`
		2980
		2981	`Units are generated with the 'Lib' directive. The name of the Unit and the`
		2982	`name of the source are linked. The source should not be provided.`
		2983	`ie: Lib ('*', 'MyUnit' );`
		2984	`Will create a unit called MyUnit.dcu from the source file 'MyUnit.pas'`
		2985
		2986	`Packages are generated with the SharedLib directive starting with a .dpk`
		2987	`file.`
		2988	`ie: SharedLib ( '*', 'MyPackage' );`
		2989	`will create a package called MyPackage.bpl/dcp from the source file`
		2990	`MyPackage.dpk.`
		2991
		2992	`Libraries are generated with the SharedLib directive starting with a .dpr`
		2993	`file.`
		2994	`ie: SharedLib ( '*', 'MyDll' );`
		2995	`will create a package called MyDll.dll/lib from the source file`
		2996	`MyDll.dpr.`
		2997
		2998	`Programs are generated with the Prog directive starting with a .dpr`
		2999	`file.`
		3000	`ie: Prog ( '*', 'MyProg' );`
		3001	`will create a package called MyProg.exe from the source file`
		3002	`MyProg.dpr.`
		3003
		3004	`Minor changes:`
		3005	`* New EnvVar: DELPHI7`
		3006	`Required only if Borland Delphi 7 has not being installed in the`

		3008	`c:\PROGRA~1\Borland\Delphi7`
		3009
		3010	`* BuildVersion directive`
		3011	`Added a 'Style' of 'Delphi' to allow the generation of version information`
		3012	`in a Delphi Unit.`
		3013
		3014	`Modified the operation of the "C" style generation.`
		3015	`If the name of the file is provided via '--File', then the generated files`
		3016	`will be 'known' to JATS and can be consumed from any makefile. JATS will`
		3017	`'know' the location of the files.`
		3018
		3019	`* Sanity test on the names of libraries and programs`
		3020	`Some characters are not allowed: ie: '/' as this is a mistake.`
		3021
		3022	`Internal Changes:`
		3023	`* ToolsetSHLD functions`
		3024	`Pass in the shared library version string as an argument`
		3025	`Means that the core of JATS can manage this information in a manner`
		3026	`that is decoupled from the toolsets.`
		3027
		3028	`* Reworked the mechanism used to hold data about libraries, shared libraries`
		3029	`merged libraries and programs. Created a class to manipulate build targets`
		3030	`and to maintain information about the contents of the targets.`

		3039
289	dpurdie	3040	`* Jats.bat and Jats.sh now provide a default Read Only username/password`

287	dpurdie	3042
289	dpurdie	3043	`NOTE: Windows users will need to update their JATS.BAT file in order`

287	dpurdie	3046
		3047	`Minor changes:`

		4064	`Major changes:`
229	dpurdie	4065	`* Jats Release Mechanism`
		4066	`Jats can now release itself. This is not the same a building all of its`
		4067	`internal components, but it does mean that a new version of JATS can be`
		4068	`released using the 'standard' mechanism.`
		4069
		4070	`Jats releases will be tracked in Release Manager.`
		4071
		4072	`A side effect of this is that the labelling scheme will change to align`

		4074
		4075	`* Running Jats`
		4076	`Running Jats from within a ClearCase view is being deprecated.`

		4087	`Jats will generate a warning if the version of Perl in use is newer`

		4089	`compatible. Currently JATS has been extensively tested with 5.8.8.`
		4090
		4091	`* Build Directive: BuildVersion`
		4092	`This directive has been extended to allow the creation of a 'properties'`

		4094	`build.`
		4095

		4098	`Perl 5.10 has not been extensively tested - yet.`
		4099
		4100	`* Jats Tool: CCbc2`
		4101	`Added utility to use BeyondCompare (BC2) to compare files in two`
		4102	`packages defined as ClearCase labels. The utility creates two dynamic views`
		4103	`and starts BeyondCompare. The views are destroyed at the end of the`
		4104	`process.`
		4105
		4106	`Requires BeyondCompare to be installed in its default location.`

		4114	`* Jats test runtime helper scripts set_PLATFORM.bat`
		4115	`Uses SETLOCAL / ENDLOCAL to prevent environment variables being exported`

		4119	`Consistent cross-platform handling of programs found in the current`
		4120	`directory.`

		4149
		4150	`* Solaris Toolset`
		4151	`Disable the use of purify, purecov and quantify when building shared`

		4158	`Major changes:`
		4159
		4160	`Minor changes:`
		4161	`* WINCE toolsets`
		4162	`Added a run-time test for the presence of the required toolset`
		4163	`This will report an error if the required WINCE toolset has not been`
		4164	`installed. This is better than obscure message generated by the compilers`
		4165	`when header files cannot be found.`
		4166
		4167	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		4168	`If the generating tool can only be found in the users path, don't make`

		4170	`that are difficult to solve.`
		4171
		4172	`* MakePerlModule directive`
		4173	`Extended the directive syntax to allow command line options to be passed`

		4179	`-dirs=xxx options.`
		4180
		4181	`* Jats Tool: release`
		4182	`Corrected a problem when multiple ant builds where located within the`
		4183	`build view. Now all ants builds will be perform.`
		4184
		4185	`Expanded the operation of the '-build=name' option such that it can be`
		4186	`used to limit ANT builds by specifying the name of the depends.xml file.`
		4187
		4188	`* Jats Tool: CCdiff`
		4189	`Added utility to provide difference reports in a format suitable to be`

		4302	`Version: 2.71.1.cr Released: 16-Oct-07`

		4304	`Major changes:`
		4305
		4306	`Minor changes:`
		4307	`PackageLib directive`
		4308	`The construct "PackageLib( '*', @SHLIBS, @LIBS );" now works as expected.`
		4309	`Packaging multiple libraries and shared libraries works as expected.`
		4310	`Packaging multiple shared libraries works as expected.`
		4311
		4312	`MakefileGenerate directive`
		4313	`This directive should only be called once. JATS will now generate a warning,`

		4316	`Multiple Parent detection`
		4317	`A makefile.pl that is invoked from more than one other makefile.pl, or the`

		4320	`condition will be treated as a warning.`
		4321
		4322	`Solaris Toolset`
		4323	`Added option '--WithMisalign' to the SharedLib directive.`
		4324	`When used in conjunction with the 'misalign' CompleOption this option will`
		4325	`cause a machine specific object file (misalign.o) to be included in the`
		4326	`link.`
		4327
		4328	`Programs that are created with 'misalign' will automatically include the`
		4329	`misalign.o object file. The fact that shared libraries do not may be an`
		4330	`indication that this is a bad thing to do.`
		4331
		4332	`Make and generation of subdirectories`
		4333	`Fixed an issue which caused created directories to have a bad timestamp.`
		4334	`This could result in multiple attempts to generate the source dependency`
		4335	`file.`
		4336
		4337	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		4338	`Version: 2.71.0.cr Released: 10-Oct-07`
		4339	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		4340	`Major changes:`
		4341	`Makefile generation and make recursion`
		4342	`Extensive changes to the makefiles that are generated by JATS and method by`
		4343	`which JATS recuses through subdirectories during a build.`
		4344
		4345	`Summary of changes:`
		4346	`- Removed the use of 'make' to perform recursion over subdirectories`
		4347	`and platforms. This has been replaced by a JATS program that performs`
		4348	`the same task - only a great deal faster and with a greater scope for`
		4349	`flexibility.`
		4350
		4351	`The user interface remains identical: jats make ....`
		4352
		4353	`- Replaced the generated 'Makefile' with 'Makefile.gbe'. This is a text`
		4354	`file that provides sufficient information to allow JATS to locate the`
		4355	`interface directory and associated build information.`
		4356
		4357	`- Significant speed up in determining the need to rebuild a makefile.`
		4358	`On a large package this has been reduced from 30+ seconds to less`
		4359	`than one second.`
		4360
		4361	`- Significant speed up of large recursive builds through intelligent`
		4362	`building of the 'make_init' target. This is only processed once for`
		4363	`each platform type. Previously it was processed in each and every`
		4364	`makefile. This make target is used, internally, to perform sanity`
		4365	`testing of the compiler environment and to display the name of the`
		4366	`toolset. It is an expensive operation.`
		4367
		4368	`- Intelligent speed up of large recursive through better mechanism`
		4369	`for creating required directories. These are now created on the fly,`
		4370	`rather than via a slow recursive pass though all makefiles.`
		4371
		4372	`- Better makefile rebuilding`
		4373	`Makefiles can be rebuilt on the fly. The previous system was prone to`
		4374	`detecting that makefiles needs to be re-built, but then not re-`
		4375	`building them.`
		4376
		4377	`- Detection of build file changes`
		4378	`The make process will detect that the build file has been modified`
		4379	`and that the component has not been rebuilt. This is a warning. It`
		4380	`does not prevent the 'make' operation.`
		4381
		4382	`- Quieter make output`
		4383	`The 'Nothing to be done' message has been disabled.`
		4384
		4385
		4386	`Minor changes:`
		4387	`MakeAnt Directive`
		4388	`Allows ANT_HOME to be a path with spaces. ie: c:\Program Files\apache-ant-1.6.5`
		4389
		4390	`JATS command "debug" and "prod"`
		4391	`These now handle make arguments and options correctly. Thus the command:`
		4392	`jats prod WIN32 OPTIONS=args`
		4393	`Will correctly do a production build for WIN32 with command execution`
		4394	`display. Before, the system would attempt to process prod_OPTIONS=args.`
		4395
		4396	`CSHARP toolset`
		4397	`Correctly detect missing compiler directories`

		4491	`Minor changes:`
		4492	`* Reverted changes made in JATS_2.68.1 to the library search path`
		4493	`Although the search order is broken, we will need to live with it.`
		4494
		4495	`Addressed the search order of /usr/lib under Solaris by adding a new`
		4496	`AddLibDir option (--System) to add system paths. These will be searched`
		4497	`last.`
		4498
		4499	`For the record, the search order for header files and libraries is:`
		4500
		4501	`1) As specified with AddIncDir/AddLibDir in the local makefile.pl`
		4502	`or within any such directive with the --Local option`
		4503
		4504	`2) Within the components 'local' directories. These are populated with`
		4505	`InstallHdr and InstallLib directives.`
		4506
		4507	`3) Within the 'interface' directory as populated by BuildPkgArchive`
		4508
		4509	`4) As specified with AddIncDir/AddLibDir in the 'global' makefile.pl`
		4510	`or within any such directive with the --Global option`
		4511
		4512	`5) Within packages specified by a LinkPkgArchive directive`

		4524	`Major changes:`
		4525
		4526	`Minor changes:`
		4527	`* Solaris Toolset`
		4528	`Corrected library search order, such that /usr/lib is search after the`
		4529	`dependent packages.`
		4530
		4531	`* RunTest operation`
		4532	`Added the current directory '.' to the PATH used when the test is run.`
		4533

		4537	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		4538	`Version: JATS_2.68.0 Released: 20-Aug-07`
		4539	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		4540	`Major changes:`
		4541	`* Trap use of uncontrolled versions of 'ant' and the Java Compiler (javac)`
		4542
		4543	`It was discovered that a few old makefile.pl's where invoking ant and`
		4544	`javac directly in order to build small Java components. This was`
		4545	`normally being done in the guise of the WIN32 target. These packages`
		4546	`were making assumptions about the version of Java on the users search`
		4547	`path.`
		4548
		4549	`JATS can invoke ANT and build Java based components using the MakeAnt`
		4550	`directive and the JAVA platform. This method is controlled and`
		4551	`reproducible.`
		4552
		4553	`This release provides changes such that these packages will not build.`
		4554	`This is better than building incorrectly.`
		4555
		4556	`There are several aspects to the change`
		4557	`1) JATS provides binaries (ant and javac) with an error message. If`
		4558	`the user invoked ant/javac in a manner that involves searching the`
		4559	`PATH then these will be used and report an error.`
		4560
		4561	`2) A special command (jats abt) can be used to start up the Auto Build`
		4562	`Tool in a manner that does not alter the PATH seen by the utilities.`
		4563	`Moreover it does not alter the JAVA_HOME seen by the build. This is`
		4564	`controlled separately.`
		4565
		4566	`Minor changes:`
		4567	`* Sanitize the PATH environment variable`
		4568	`Ensure the JATS bin directory is the first directory searched`
		4569	`Remove duplicates`
		4570	`Place non-existent components at the end of the PATH`
		4571
		4572	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		4573	`Version: JATS_2.67.1 Released: 17-Aug-07`
		4574	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		4575	`Major changes:`
		4576
		4577	`Minor changes:`
		4578	`* Makefile sanity test`
		4579	`Added a test to ensure that makefiles created on a machine of one type are`
		4580	`not then run on a machine of a different type.`
		4581
		4582	`This will prevent files created on solaris-sparc being used on a solaris-`
		4583	`x86 machine.`
		4584
		4585	`* Correct bug in RunTest`
		4586	`RunTest now extends the PATH to include the local bin directory`
		4587
		4588	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		4589	`Version: JATS_2.67.0 Released: 13-Aug-07`
		4590	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		4591	`Major changes:`
		4592	`* RunTest directive`
		4593	`Added support for running tests within the NUNIT test framework for the`
		4594	`CSHARP target. In the process a generalized mechanism for accessing`
		4595	`toolset specific test frameworks has been added.`
		4596
		4597	`Changes to the directive to support a FrameWork.`
		4598	`The use of a test FrameWork is signaled with the option`
		4599	`--FrameWork=<name> If this is present then the raw name of the program`
		4600	`under test will be passed to the framework. program.`
		4601
		4602	`If a FrameWork is in use, then JATS will invoke the specified framework`
		4603	`builder within the current toolset.`
		4604
		4605	`When a framework is in place JATS will pass arguments of the form:`
		4606	`'--Tag=Text' to the FrameWork. Other options are processed as normal.`
		4607
		4608	`With in the Nunit FrameWork the program under test will be a DLL Nunit`
		4609	`will only operate on a DLL. The DLL must have been created by the makefile`
		4610	`containing the RunTest directive.`
		4611
		4612	`The Nunit Framework supports the following options:`
		4613	`--Uses=<Name>[,SubOption]+`
		4614
		4615	`This option specifies other DLLs that are used by the TestDLL. They will`
		4616	`be copied in to the test directory, and may be sourced from an external`
		4617	`package or the components 'local' lib directory.`
		4618
		4619	`SubOptions available to The --Uses directive are:`
		4620	`--NonJats This is not a JATS built library. It will not have a`
		4621	`P or D suffix.`
		4622	`--Jats (Default) This is a JATS built library. JATS will`
		4623	`select the correct library type for this build.`
		4624
		4625	`Minor changes:`
		4626	`* New Cache cleanup mechanism`
		4627	`When a package is consumed from the 'cache' a flag is updated within`
		4628	`the cache. The cache aging routines use this file in preference to`
		4629	`the descpkg file, thus it will prevent the aging of packages that are`
		4630	`frequently used. The aging policy can be made more aggressive.`
		4631
		4632	`* Save Build Utility`
		4633	`This utility is used by the Auto Build System to save the 'build.pl' file`
		4634	`used in a ripple build.`
		4635
		4636	`The utility has been enhanced to detect a reserved checkout of the`
		4637	`build.pl. The checkout will be changed to unreserved - if possible.`
		4638
		4639	`* Release Utility`
		4640	`The 'jats release' command will now unlock any labels that it locked`
		4641	`when an error is encountered.`
		4642
		4643	`This simplifies the 'release' process as the developers label will be`
		4644	`unlocked if a build error occurs.`
		4645
		4646	`* Jats caching local copy of itself`
		4647	`Fixed a bug which resulted in an "Use of individualized value" message`
		4648	`being displayed a large number of times during the file transfer process.`
		4649
		4650	`* Minor extension to allow plug-in directives to perform a processing step`
		4651	`before the makefiles are created.`
		4652
		4653	`* TestProg directive`
		4654	`TestProg's are now built in exactly the same manner as Progs`
		4655
		4656	`* Correct problem introduced in 2.66.1 with packaging of files with`
		4657	`a 'space' or '$' in the file name.`
		4658

		4660	`Version: JATS_2.66.1 Released: 20-Jul-07`
		4661	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		4662	`Major changes:`
		4663	`* New build target`
		4664	`LINUX_ETX - Support for Linux on an ETX board`
		4665	`LMOS_LINUX_ETX - Support for LMOS on the LINUX_ETX target`
		4666
		4667	`These targets have also been added to the following pseudo targets.`
		4668	`DEVLINUX`
		4669	`LMOS_DEVLINUX`
		4670
		4671	`* Internal utility dpkg_cache [Windows]`

		4673	`transfer, after having problems the 'cp.exe' provided by JATS.`
		4674
		4675	`Minor changes:`
		4676	`* Added utility class to provide directory searching`
		4677	`To be used in JATS and JATS support tools`
		4678
		4679	`* tweaks to the C# toolset`
		4680	`Correct problem with filename that start with "n" as in .\not_nice.cs`
		4681
		4682	`Create resource files with Fully Qualified Names derived from the .resx`
		4683	`and .cs files.`
		4684
		4685	`Handle Strong Key Names and creates wrappers to provide do the right`
		4686	`thing.`
		4687
		4688	`* Microtec ColdFire compiler`
		4689	`Further attempts to get the compiler to place all of its temp files in a`
		4690	`local directory. The compiler uses a large number of EnVars to control`
		4691	`were it places temp files.`
		4692
		4693	`Underlying problem is random compiler failures on big builds. Suspected`
		4694	`interaction with other builds.`
		4695
		4696	`* Release utility command`
		4697	`Added a -tag=name option to allow the Auto Build Tools to create`
		4698	`multiple instances of a static view. The tag is used to provide a unique`
		4699	`component in the clearcase tag name.`

		4788	`Major changes:`
		4789	`* Provided a mechanism by which JATS makefile.pl directives can be extended`
		4790	`through modules provided by external packages. This will be used to reduce`
		4791	`the dependancy on JATS of various packaging processes.`
		4792
		4793	`* GenerateFiles`
		4794	`Added the options:`
		4795	`--UnknownPreq - Will force the recipe to be run every time`

		4799
		4800	`--AutoGenerate - Will not force the recipe to be run during the`

		4923	`Example file now provides a default GBE_DPKG definition that assumes that`
		4924	`the "V" drive is mapped to \\auperaunx26\devl. This allows access to both`
		4925	`the dpkg_acrhive and the deploy_archive with the one mapping.`
		4926
		4927	`* jats label`
		4928	`Correct problem when locking a label in a specified VOB`
		4929
		4930	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		4931	`Version: JATS_2.64.0 Released: 16-Apr-07`
		4932	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		4933	`Major changes:`
		4934	`* New build platform:`
		4935	`LMOS_TP5600`
		4936	`LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI`
		4937	`LMOS_TP5600_EMU`
		4938
		4939	`LMOS_TP5600 is a tag that will be expanded to the entire family of LMOS_TP5600`
		4940	`supported targets. A common alias of LMOS_T5600 will be created to`
		4941	`describe the group of platforms.`
		4942
		4943	`LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI and LMOS_TP5600_EMU`
		4944	`These are LMOS based targets. The 'lmos' package must be used in order to`
		4945	`build these targets.`
		4946
		4947	`The LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI can use components from the TP5600_ARM9TDMI,`
		4948	`where no LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI components are provided.`
		4949
		4950	`The LMOS_TP5600_EMU can use components from the TP5600_EMU,`
		4951	`where no LMOS_TP5600_EMU components are provided.`
		4952
		4953	`* New build platform: WINCE`
		4954	`This is a tag that will be expanded to all the known WINCE targets.`
		4955	`Use of this platform will simplify the creation of components for`
		4956	`consumption on all WINCE machines.`
		4957
		4958	`The current list of WINCE targets is:`
		4959	`WCEIT3000`
		4960	`WCEPA961`
		4961	`WCEPA962`
		4962	`WCEPCM7220`
		4963	`WCEPSION_420`
		4964	`WCEPSPC_arm`
		4965	`WCEPSPC_emu`
		4966	`WCEX86A420`
		4967	`WCEX86A500`
		4968	`WCEX86A500_SOM4455`
		4969
		4970	`The WINCE targets actually built will be affected by GBE_BUILDFILTER.`
		4971
		4972	`* JATS makefile.pl`
		4973	`The package descriptor file, 'descpkg', will be packaged in all makefiles`
		4974	`that contain packaging directives.`
		4975
		4976	`There is now no need to explicitly package the 'descpkg' file, except in`
		4977	`very unusual configurations.`
		4978
		4979	`Minor changes:`
		4980	`* Directive: PackageFile`
		4981	`Generate a warning if the source file name does not confirm to good naming`
		4982	`conventions. The filename must not start with a '-' and must not contain`
		4983	`an '='.`
		4984
		4985	`Normally the result of an error in the directive. ie: "-Subdir=etc", instead`
		4986	`of "--Subdir=etc".`
		4987
		4988	`* JATS Internal utility: cmdfile`
		4989	`Updated Linux and Solaris targets with a version of the cmdfile that`
		4990	`provides a better error message for libraries that cannot be found.`
		4991
		4992	`This version will display the library search path with one item per line,`
		4993	`rather than all items on one, very long, line.`
		4994
		4995	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		4996	`Version: JATS_2.63.0 Released: 5-Apr-07`
		4997	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		4998	`Major changes:`
		4999
		5000	`* JATS release command`
		5001	`Modified the configuration spec generated when a branching rule is`
		5002	`specified. The change will ensure that directories are not branched.`
		5003
		5004	`Rules are:`
		5005	`Modify a file: File will branch`
		5006	`Adding a file: Containing directory will not branch`
		5007	`File will be placed on a branch`
		5008	`Add a directory: Containing directory will not branch`
		5009	`New directory will branch`
		5010
		5011	`Minor changes:`
		5012	`* JATS release command`
		5013	`Added -noprefex option to allow the creation of a view directory without the`
		5014	`user name being prefixed to it. This is useful in creating an escrow view.`
		5015
		5016	`* JATS label command`
		5017	`Detect and report parent directories that are checkedout when a label`
		5018	`is applied. Previously these had gone unreported.`
		5019
		5020	`* JATS make`
		5021	`Undo previous change to preserve symbolic links while Packaging and`
		5022	`Installing files. A problem was encountered when a file from a package`
		5023	`was re-packaged.`
		5024
		5025	`* JATS escrow`
		5026	`Added a tool to generate information for creating an escrow drop.`
		5027	`Use jats escrow -help for details`
		5028
		5029	`* makefile.pl directive: MakeAnt`
		5030	`This directive will create parameters to specify the location of external java`
		5031	`packages that have been referenced via a LinkPkgArchive directive.`
		5032
		5033	`This allows the build.xml to contruct a CLASSPATH to access JAR files in`
		5034	`packages, without the overhead of copying the entire package into the`
		5035	`interface directory.`
		5036
		5037	`* build.pl directive: BuildPkgArchive`
		5038	`Modified the processing of 'jar' directories.`
		5039	`Directories of the form 'jar.<target>' will be transferred into the 'jar'`
		5040	`directory as seen by the package.`
		5041
		5042	`Intended use: Deployment of oraclient for Solaris 10`
		5043
		5044	`* JAVA 6`
		5045	`JATS now supports all versions of Java through the use of JAVA_HOME_X_Y`
		5046	`environment variables. Where X andY specify the version of JAVA.`
		5047
		5048	`The jats.bat and jats.sh example files only provide indication of 1.4, 1.5`
		5049	`and 1.6 support, but all versions are now supported.`
		5050
		5051	`The "jats vars -v" command will display all JAVA_HOME environment variables`
		5052
		5053	`* Jats command: vars`
		5054	`Extended to show a "*" for EnvVars that do not address a valid directory`
		5055	`These indicate potential problems.`
		5056
		5057	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5058	`Version: JATS_2.62.4 Released: 20-Mar-07`
		5059	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5060	`Major changes:`
		5061	`* JATS create_dpkg + packageing shared libraries (Unix)`
		5062	`When a shared library is created a simple symbolic link to the versioned`
		5063	`libarry is also created.`
		5064
		5065	`Previous versions of JATS would replace the symbolic link with a physical`
		5066	`copy of the file. The effect of this is that when the shared libaries is`
		5067	`'Installed', 'Packaged' and transferred into dpkg_archive there are two`
		5068	`files, instead of one file and one link to the file (in the same directory)`
		5069	`The Solaris shared libraries can be quite large, due to the debug`
		5070	`information contained within the file.`
		5071
		5072	`This version of JATS will preserve symbolic links when 'Installing',`
		5073	`'Packaging' and transferring to dpkg_archive.`
		5074
		5075	`The advantage of this will be significant reduction in disk space used`
		5076	`within the build environment and dpkg_archive.`
		5077
		5078	`* Building Perl Modules`
		5079	`Modified the process to prevent the module builder attempting to modify the`
		5080	`documentation on the build machine.`
		5081
		5082	`Integrated the 'jats clean' operation.`
		5083
		5084	`Minor changes:`
		5085	`* jats create_dpkg`
		5086	`Added an option to create a built.generic file`
		5087	`This is only used by the Automated Built Tools.`
		5088
		5089	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5090	`Version: JATS_2.62.3 Released: 28-Feb-07`
		5091	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5092	`Major changes:`
		5093	`* JATS JAVA build target`
		5094	`The default behaviour of the JAVA build target has changed such that the`
		5095	`default version of JAVA used will be 1.4.`
		5096
		5097	`Previous behaviour was to use whichever version was specified by the EnvVar`
		5098	`JAVA_HOME. This was not controlled, thus the build was not controlled.`
		5099	`Problems occur when using the new AutoBuildTool as it uses Java 1.5 and this`
		5100	`is then picked up as the default version.`
		5101
		5102	`If a version, other than 1.4, is required then specify it within the`
		5103	`build.pl file.`
		5104
		5105	`Minor changes:`
		5106	`* jats release`
		5107	`Ensure that the 'cleartool' command can be found in the users PATH`
		5108	`Issue an error if it cannot be found.`
		5109	`This error indicates bad DevEnv setup`
		5110
		5111	`Added facility to create a view based on a config_spec, instead of a label.`
		5112	`Such a view cannot be used to create a release. It is intended to simplify`
		5113	`the creation of simple static views. The name of view is, by default,`
		5114	`based on the name of the config spec. Use the -view=name option to change`
		5115	`the name of the view.`
		5116
		5117	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		5118	`Added new --Vars() to allow packaging of JATS plugin tools.`
		5119
		5120	`* MOS Toolset`
		5121	`When using MOS fast intermodule calls the optimizer will preload commonly`
		5122	`used memory addresses into a register BEFORE the GDP has been correctly set`
		5123	`up. Use the following option to suppress this optimization`
		5124
		5125	`Added: CompileOptions ('*', 'NoGlobalOptimization' );`
		5126
		5127
		5128	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5129	`Version: JATS_2.62.2 Released: 15-Feb-07`
		5130	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5131	`Major changes:`
		5132
		5133	`Minor changes:`
		5134	`* JATS environment`
		5135	`Ensure that the true path of the Perl executable is present in the PATH`
		5136	`environment variable. This allows build tool access to various perl utilities`
		5137	`that are located in the Perl bin directory.`
		5138
		5139	`Resolves issues in locating utilities such as pod2html`
		5140
		5141	`* Use of GENERIC platforms`
		5142	`Report an error if a GENERIC platform is mixed with any other platform`
		5143	`specifier. GENERIC is used for packages that build on all machines because`
		5144	`they do not use a compiler or linker. They simply contains files that need`
		5145	`to be packaged.`
		5146
		5147	`* Generated makefiles`
		5148	`Solaris and Linux: Ensure that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is exported if it is used.`
		5149
		5150	`* Generating MOS THX files`
		5151	`Added option --BinaryImage to the SharedLib directive used to create MOS THX`
		5152	`files. This option will create a binary image (.bin) instead of a .thx file.`
		5153	`This is being used in the creation of BR Applets.`
		5154
		5155	`SharedLib ( 'MOS', "xxx", @OBJS, "--Rel=xxx.rel", "--BinaryImage" );`
		5156
		5157	`* JATS release`
		5158	`Correct the operation of the -path option under Unix`
		5159
		5160	`* JATS extract`
		5161	`New JATS command. This is the same as 'jats release -extract'`
		5162
		5163	`* JATS Toolset`
		5164	`Added support for the WinCe PSION (WCEPSION_420)`
		5165	`This is a armv4i device using 4.20 of the WCE SDK`
		5166
		5167
		5168	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5169	`Version: JATS_2.62.1 Released: 18-Jan-07`
		5170	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5171	`Major changes:`
		5172
		5173	`Minor changes:`
		5174	`* jats label`
		5175	`Added a -vob=name option`
		5176	`This allwos the label utility to create, lock, unlock, rename and delete`
		5177	`labels without the user actually being located within the VOB. This option`
		5178	`cannot be used in conjunction with operations that place labels on files.`
		5179	`It can only be used for operations that manipulate the label.`
		5180
		5181	`Added a -user=name option`
		5182	`This extends the operation of the -mine operation to change ownership of the`
		5183	`label to the named user.`
		5184
		5185	`* jats release`
		5186	`Displays the path to the view and the build file in a user friendly manner`
		5187	`Under Windows it uses \, unless running under cygwin.`
		5188
		5189	`* JATS build.pl`
		5190	`BuildProduct supports the --Uses=xxxx construct on a per-target basis.`
		5191	`ie:`
		5192	`BuildProduct ('TP5', 'LMOS_TP5600_EMU', 'LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI,--Uses=TP5600_ARM9TDMI');`
		5193
		5194
		5195	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5196	`Version: JATS_2.62.0 Released: 22-Dec-06`
		5197	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5198	`Major changes:`
		5199	`* GenerateFiles and RunTest directives`
		5200	`These directives have been extended to allow a large number of makefile`
		5201	`values to be added to the command lines,without resorting to knowledge of`
		5202	`the makefile internals. ie:`
		5203	`--Var(BuildName)`
		5204	`will be expanded to (hen building MyPackage)`
		5205	`-BuildName=MyPackage`
		5206
		5207	`The complete list of Variables is provided in the JATS manual.`
		5208
		5209	`* GenerateFiles`
		5210	`Added a --Clean option to allow tools to be invoked in the 'clean' phase`
		5211	`This allows external scripts to cleanup.`
		5212
		5213	`* BuildPlatforms`
		5214	`Restored operation of the --Uses option`
		5215
		5216	`Minor changes:`
		5217	`* GCC Toolset`
		5218	`Exports path to compiler. Used by scripts to build packages`
		5219
		5220	`Internal changes:`
		5221	`* GenerateFiles`
		5222	`Maintains the arguments in an array for simpler processing.`
		5223
		5224	`--Shell is now processed by the 'make' shell rather then invoking an`
		5225	`external shell. It will be the same shell, just easier to setup.`
		5226
		5227
		5228	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5229	`Version: JATS_2.61.3 Released: 14-Dec-06`
		5230	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5231	`Major changes:`
		5232	`* Caching JATS`
		5233	`Added a mechanism whereby JATS can cache a copy of itself on the users local`
		5234	`drive. This is applicable to windows.`
		5235
		5236	`This mechanism will allow a user to address JATS via the soft-links in`
		5237	`dpkg_archive and pick up the current version of JATS without the penalty of`
		5238	`then using JATS across a slow(network) link.`
		5239
		5240	`The EnvVar GBE_CACHE_JATS controls the operation of this feature.`
		5241	`Set GBE_CACHE_JATS to one to enable the operation, but it will only be`
		5242	`effective if JATS is being run from GBE_DPKG in the first place.`
		5243
		5244	`Use: Build Machines and Windows Users`
		5245
		5246	`Minor changes:`
		5247	`* Build directive: BuildAlias with --Target option`
		5248	`Corrected a problem when the target name is a expanded platform name (ie:`
		5249	`TP5600) that prevent correct expansion.`
		5250
		5251	`* jats build`
		5252	`If the user has not configured a cache, then do not attempt to cache`
		5253	`packages. This will remove an annoying warning message for each package`
		5254	`processed by the build.`
		5255
		5256	`* jats build`
		5257	`Modified the error messages generated when JATS fails to create the`
		5258	`makefiles. The previous system would report failures while creating`
		5259	`makefiles and, at the end of the process, it would generate a large error`
		5260	`message to indicate the failure. This large message diverted the users`
		5261	`from reading the other error messages resulting in confusion.`
		5262
		5263	`* PackageFile, PackageLib, PackageProg and PackageHdr`
		5264	`Detect and report as an error use of the --Dir=<Path> option where the`
		5265	`Path is not specified.`
		5266
		5267	`Most instances of this error will be where the option has been mis-used in`
		5268	`conjunction with a package.pl file, or during transition from using a`
		5269	`package.pl file. That change is detects errors where the user has specified`
		5270	`--Dir=$Pinc`
		5271	`but $Pinc is not defined.`
		5272
		5273	`* Purify and Purecov under Windows`
		5274	`Changes to correct the operation of Rational's tools when used on the`
		5275	`Windows platform.`
		5276
		5277	`- OPTIONS=purecov`
		5278	`Forces the link operations to generate the relocation table required`
		5279	`by 'purecov.`
		5280
		5281	`Does not attempt to use purecov in the compiler tool chain`
		5282	`This is required under Solaris, but not Windows`
		5283
		5284	`- OPTIONS=purify`
		5285	`Does not attempt to use purecov in the compiler tool chain`
		5286	`This is required under Solaris, but not Windows.`
		5287	`Under WIndows this option does nothing.`
		5288

		5293	`Major changes:`
		5294	`* makefile.pl directive Platform`
		5295	`This directive has been expanded to allow for the negation operation`
		5296	`Example:`
		5297	`Platform ('!MOSCF');`
		5298	`Process makefile for all targets other than MOSCF`
		5299	`This is the same as Platform ('*', '!MOSCF');`
		5300
		5301	`Excluded platform will be processed after included platforms have`
		5302	`been determined.`
		5303
		5304	`Minor changes:`
		5305	`* Added the ScanList directive.`
		5306	`This directive allows a list of files within an external package to be`
		5307	`located at build-time.`
		5308
		5309	`* Unix based systems`
		5310	`If the EnvVar LD_LIBRARY_PATH was undefined, then a warning would be`
		5311	`generated by make under some conditions. The warning has been removed.`
		5312
		5313	`* MakeLinuxDriver`
		5314	`Added a --Define=text option to allow "defines" to be passed to the`
		5315	`driver being built.`

		5345	`Added directive: MakeLinuxDriver to build and Linux Device Driver.`
		5346
		5347	`GenerateFiles.`
		5348	`Added option: --NoGenerate to indicate that the directive does`

		5417	`similar, but more pronounced, issue.`
		5418
		5419	`* Atmel toolset (DEVI-031788)`
		5420	`New Products: AT90SC7272C and AT90SC3232CS`

		5517	`Version: JATS_2.56.2 Released: 28-Aug-06`
		5518	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`

		5520
		5521	`Minor changes:`
		5522	`* WIN32 and WINCE toolsets`
		5523	`SharedLib operation. Added an option to allow the creation of a 'stub'`

		5558	`Major changes:`
		5559	`* Support for SOLARIS10_sparc32 and SOLARIS10_sparc64`
		5560	`Initial release.`
		5561
		5562	`* Packaging directives`
		5563	`Added option --OsCommon to allow files and header files to be packed into`
		5564	`a directory known to all platforms being built for a common OS.`
		5565
		5566	`Currently this is only supported to target platforms based on`
		5567	`SOLARIS`
		5568	`WIN32`
		5569
		5570	`* Removal of support for badly formed packages`
		5571	`As of this release libraries that exist in the <packagename>/lib directory`
		5572	`will not be available to JATS. These libraries are in the incorrect`
		5573	`directory. They MUST be in a directory that indicates the intended purpose`
		5574	`of the library. A .so library cannot be used on all machines ( linux,`
		5575	`solaris-sparc, solaris-amd ... ).`
		5576
		5577	`* Build Platform target name expansion facility`
		5578	`The build targets of SOLARIS and LINUX are seen as expandable names. They`
		5579	`will be expanded to suitable targets - depending on the host machine .`
		5580
		5581
		5582	`Minor changes:`
		5583	`* Utility: JATS LABEL`
		5584	`Ensure that the 'cleartool' utility can be found in the users path.`
		5585	`Generate a suitable error message if it cannot be found.`
		5586
		5587	`* Utility: JATS RELEASE`
		5588	`Added a -root=dirname to allow the user to place the created view at a given`
		5589	`location`
		5590
		5591	`Added GBE_VIEWBASE to provide a globally configured mechanism for`
		5592	`controlling the view location. Performs the same job as -root=xxxx`
		5593
		5594	`* Utility genrc`
		5595	`Added the company name to the copyright string`
		5596
		5597	`* Utility: jats_save_build`
		5598	`Added option: -new`
		5599	`This option forces the saved file only a new branch.`
		5600	`The option can be used to save a build.pl file onto a new project-specific`
		5601	`branch. Useful when branching an entire release.`
		5602
		5603	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		5604	`Added options to allow project suffixes to be replaced.`
		5605	`Use: Convert a .syd project to a .bej project.`
		5606
		5607	`* Deprecated features: package.pl and tree.dir`
		5608	`These two build features are being deprecated. They are not suitable for`
		5609	`migration to other SOLARIS based platforms.`
		5610
		5611	`The Package directives provide sufficient power to replace the package.pl`
		5612	`features - in a uniform manner.`
		5613
		5614
		5615	`Internal Changes:`
		5616	`* Major rework of the JATS BuildPlatform, BuildAlias an BuildProducts`
		5617	`directives, together with the mechanism used to describe the platform builds.`
		5618
		5619	`Introduced a CFG/<PLATFORM>.CFG file to provide:`
		5620	`1) Platform information available at build time`
		5621	`2) Dynamic platform names`
		5622
		5623	`* Major rework of the 'SOLARIS' platform`
		5624	`The SOLARIS platform will generate one or more targets, depending on the`
		5625	`machine on which the platform is invoked.`
		5626
		5627	`Consolidated a number of SOLARIS specific kludges and converted them into`
		5628	`configurable items. These kludges are really on applicable to the`
		5629	`SOLARIS8_SPARC32 platform. New SOLARIS builds will be well formed.`
		5630
		5631	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		5632	`Formalized a number of kludges in operation of the SOLARIS8 under sparc32`
		5633	`platform. These are configured early in the build process and are no longer`
		5634	`needed.`
		5635
		5636	`A side effect of this work is that files from external packages may be`
		5637	`located in 'SOLARIS', 'SOLARIS_sparc' or 'sparc' directories. The change`
		5638	`should be transparent as the consumer tools should be able to handle`
		5639	`files from all of these.`

		5651	`Version: JATS_2.55.0 Released: 3-Aug-06`
		5652	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5653	`Major changes:`
		5654	`* Jats wrapper: Specify version of JATS to be used`
		5655	`Added a -version=xxxx option to force JATS to use a specific version of`
		5656	`JATS. The same operation can be achieved by setting GBE_JATS_VERSION.`
		5657
		5658	`The required version MUST be found in one of the known archives.`
		5659
		5660	`JATS will attempt to cache the version of JATS to assist in speeding up`
		5661	`the operations.`
		5662
		5663	`The version option MUST be the first option.`
		5664
		5665	`The version option MUST be followed by a '--' option.`
		5666	`This prevents JATS parsing other options and recursion issues.`
		5667
		5668	`Example: jats -version=2.54.3.cr -- build`
		5669
		5670	`* Migrated the "jats install" functionality out of the jats wrapper script`
		5671	`and into the create_dpkg utility. This is transparent to the user.`
		5672
		5673	`* Utility: create_dpkg`
		5674	`Added a '-quiet' option to allow use within scripts`
		5675	`Extended the built-in help`

		5677	`Migrate code to a common error reporting mechanism`
		5678

		5680	`Added support for the WCEPA962 target.`
		5681
		5682	`* M16 toolset as used in building MCRFirmware`
		5683	`Added a --MotOnly option to the Prog directives. MOT files`
		5684	`are used in the creation of bootstraps.`
		5685
		5686	`Minor changes:`
		5687	`* JATS wrapper script`
		5688	`Added a -ABT=xxx option to allow the Auto Build Tool to be invoked from`
		5689	`the command line.`
		5690
		5691	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		5692	`Modified so that it will display changes. These will then be present in the`
		5693	`ABT log so that a developer can see which packages have been rippled.`
		5694
		5695	`Internal Changes:`
		5696	`* Common Error Reporting`
		5697	`Will use environment variables to control DEBUG and VERBOSE levels`
		5698	`for individual users. A module reporting with a name of XXXX will use EnvVars`
		5699	`of GBE_XXXX_VERBOSE and GBE_XXXX_DEBUG to control the debug and VERBOSE`
		5700	`level.`
		5701
		5702	`Force flushing after a "Question" is asked to ensure that the prompt is`
		5703	`displayed.`
		5704
		5705	`Enable autoflush for both STDOUT and STDERR.`
		5706

		5720	`Added AT7272 support`
		5721

		5744	`builds.`
		5745
		5746	`* JATS Core`
		5747	`Added GBE_ABT. This is used by the Auto Build Tool to indicate that an`
		5748	`auto build is in progress. It may be used by various tools to modify their`
		5749	`behaviour.`
		5750
		5751	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5752	`Version: JATS_2.54.0 Released: 22-Jun-06`
		5753	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5754	`Major changes:`
		5755	`* Removal of non-core deployment functionality from JATS.`
		5756	`Deployment package will be affected.`
		5757
		5758	`The build.pl file of deployment package will need to import deployment`
		5759	`support with a BuildPkgArchive directive. ie:`
		5760
		5761	`BuildPkgArchive ( 'deployfiles', '1.0.0.cr' );`
		5762
		5763	`This version of deployfiles contains the same functionality as that provided`
		5764	`by the previous version of JATS. Version 2 of this package will be the start`
		5765	`of a deployment system that will provide support for building InstallShield`
		5766	`packages.`
		5767
		5768	`* Deployment support utilities must be run under JATS`
		5769	`The environment required for the deployment support utilities is complex`
		5770	`and is provided by the JATS wrapper script.`
		5771
		5772	`This is a change in usage. Instead of running the program 'updatenodespec'`
		5773	`the user will need to run 'jats updatenodespec'`
		5774
		5775	`Minor changes:`
		5776	`* SubDir directive`
		5777	`Added a sanity test to detect the case when a 'SubDir' directive specifies`
		5778	`a directory from two different makefiles.`
		5779
		5780	`* Tools: Dependancy generator mkdepend`
		5781	`If an include file was referenced by a symbolic name, then the generated`
		5782	`dependancy information would be wrong for all but the first occurrence`
		5783	`of the file usage.`
		5784
		5785	`* New utility: jats_manifest`
		5786	`Used by the build system to generate and validate source files.`
		5787	`Beta Release: Windows only at the moment`
		5788
		5789	`* Unit tests under SOLARIS_sparc`
		5790	`The LD_LIBRARY_PATH has been modified to correctly pick up libraries`
		5791	`generated within the build and have been installed locally.`
		5792
		5793	`* Default behaviour of JATS the wrapper script`
		5794	`This has been changed. Previous unknown commands were passed to make.`
		5795	`In this release unknown comamnds will be treated a 'etool' commands and`
		5796	`will execute a JATS extended command.`
		5797
		5798
		5799	`Internal Changes:`
		5800	`* Code refactor`
		5801	`Created JatsEnv to encapsulate functionality that was multiply defined.`
		5802
		5803	`* Deployment utilities`
		5804	`The Perl module Ignorelist.pm and the .ccignore file`
		5805	`Changed the mechanism by which this module locates a .ccignore file.`
		5806	`The .ccignore file has been moved to the same directory as the module and`
		5807	`the module can locate the file.`
		5808
		5809	`Previously the module required an environment variable in order to locate`
		5810	`the file, which was in a fixed location anyway.`
		5811
		5812	`* JATS core`
		5813	`Removed the use of the environment variable PERLINC.`
		5814
		5815	`Better parsing of descpkg files.`
		5816
		5817	`* JATS core debugging: JatsError.pm`
		5818	`Allow control over the debug and verbose messages of specific programs`
		5819	`through the use of environment variables.`
		5820
		5821	`A program reporting errors as "name" can be controlled via environment`
		5822	`variables GBE_name_VERBOSE and GBE_name_DEBUG.`
		5823
		5824	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		5825	`Modified the subdirectories transferred with this directive to include:`
		5826	`deployfiles - as used by the deployment system`
		5827	`tools/scripts - as used by perl based extensions`
		5828
		5829	`* Make environment`
		5830	`Extended the PERL5LIB path seen by perl programs executed under make to`
		5831	`include 'tools/script' directories that contain Perl Modules.`

		5850
		5851	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5852	`Version: JATS_2.53.0 Released: 11-Apr-06`
		5853	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5854	`Major changes:`
		5855	`* Deployment Scripts: Release Manager Database Access`
		5856	`The mechanism for communicating with the Release Manager Database has been`
		5857	`radically replaced.`
		5858
		5859	`A test tool has been added to prove connectivity to Release Manager.`
		5860	`Usage:`
		5861	`jats etool test_rmconnection`
		5862
		5863	`The pervious scripts used DBI::ODBC to communicate with the Oracle`
		5864	`Database that contains Release Manager. There were a number of problems with`
		5865	`this solution:`
		5866	`- Required the installation of two Perl Modules`
		5867	`- Required the installation of an Oracle client`
		5868	`- Required the use of an ODBC bridge machine when used on Solaris`
		5869	`- Support for Perl within Oracle appears to be on the decline`
		5870
		5871	`The solutions uses a Java application and Java's jdbc. The oracle:thin`
		5872	`client is used as this does not require any installation or configuration in`
		5873	`order to work.`
		5874
		5875	`JATS overrides Perl's DBI package with a package of the same name, but`
		5876	`reduced functionality.`
		5877
		5878
		5879	`Minor changes:`
		5880	`* makefile.pl directive: SetValue`
		5881	`Added a '--' option to disable and enable parsing of options.`
		5882	`This allows a value with leading '--' to be set.`
		5883
		5884	`* makefile.pl directive: SetList`
		5885	`Added this directive to formalise the creation and processing of lists`
		5886	`within the makefiles.`
		5887	`Options:`
		5888	`--NoWarn Disable name clash warnings`
		5889	`--Project=xxxx[,xxxx]+ Add to list in selected projects`
		5890	`--Unique Add only if not already present`
		5891	`--Clear Clear list, before adding new items`
		5892	`--Append Append items to list (default)`
		5893	`-- Disable/Enable option parsing`
		5894	`Useage:`
		5895
		5896	`SetList ('*', 'LibList', 'lib1', 'lib2', '--Project=syd');`
		5897	`SharedLib ('*', 'MyDLL', @OBJS, @LibList );`
		5898
		5899	`* Makefile.pl directive: RunTest`
		5900	`Corrected the option of the --CopyIn=file option where the specified file`
		5901	`is not in the current directory.`
		5902
		5903	`* Jats Command: ant'`
		5904	`This command has been extended to make use of the -buildfile=xxxx option`
		5905	`to allow multiple buildfiles to be differentiated.`
		5906
		5907	`eg: jats -buildfile=MyPackage ant`
		5908
		5909	`* TOOLSET: DAFBR Compiler support`
		5910	`Modified the toolset to support an optimisation feature of the next`
		5911	`generation of the daf_br_compiler. These will be enabled if the major version`
		5912	`of the package containing the compiler is greater the "1". ie: 2.0.0.cr`
		5913
		5914	`* Interface helper files: set_XXXX.bat/.sh`
		5915	`Added provision to process user command arguments.`
		5916	`Thus`
		5917
		5918	`set_WIN32.bat prog`
		5919
		5920	`will set the WIN32 environment and run the command: prog`
		5921
		5922
		5923	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5924	`Version: JATS_2.52.2 Released: 30-Mar-06`
		5925	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5926	`Major changes:`
		5927
		5928	`Minor changes:`
		5929	`* Addressed issue with BUILDNAME, an internal variable.`
		5930	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user build.pl's they need to be`
		5931	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a project`
		5932	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		5933	`$(BUILDNAME) contains two or three space seperated fields - always`
		5934
		5935	`* m16c Toolset - MCRFirmware`
		5936	`Force the generation of .thx and payload files when the .bin files are`
		5937	`created. Previously this only occured in the packaging phase.`
		5938
		5939	`Internal changes:`
		5940	`* JATS toolsets`
		5941	`Added a feature to allow a toolset to flag additional files that get created`
		5942	`as a part of a "Prog". This allows a "Prog" definition to generate a`
		5943	`number of files, some which may be packaged.`
		5944
		5945	`Previously such files where only generated during the packaging phase. Now`
		5946	`they will be generated during the make_prog phase - with the other programs.`
		5947
		5948	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5949	`Version: JATS_2.52.1 Released: 29-Mar-06`
		5950	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5951	`Major changes:`
		5952	`* Jats command: etool`
		5953	`Extended to allow execution of deployment tools. This allows the deployment`
		5954	`tools to use the JATS core perl modules.`
		5955
		5956	`* Address issues with the use of BUILDVER and ScmBuildVer`
		5957	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user makefile.pl's they need to be`
		5958	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a projectt`
		5959	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		5960	`$(BUILDVERSION) contains the project extension - always`
		5961	`$ScmBuildVersion does not contain a project extension - always`
		5962
		5963	`Minor changes:`
		5964
		5965
		5966	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5967	`Version: JATS_2.52.0 Released: 27-Mar-06`
		5968	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5969	`Major changes:`
		5970	`* JATS environment variables`
		5971	`Added GBE_DPKG_STORE`
		5972	`Optionally addresses a dpkg_archive store. This is intended to allow`
		5973	`read only access to a remote repository. The GBE_DPKG_STORE will be`
		5974	`searched after GBE_DPKG. It will be searched last. JATS, be default,`
		5975	`will not publish packages in this repository.`
		5976
		5977	`Uses: Seed repository for a complete build`
		5978	`Remote repository`
		5979
		5980	`Added GBE_DPLY`
		5981	`Optionally addresses a Deployment Archive. This is only used in the`
		5982	`placement of deployment packages. This value may be project specific.`
		5983
		5984	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		5985	`Changes the mechanism used to link against the compiler RTL.`
		5986	`Previously the RTL was included multiple times in the link order. This`
		5987	`created problem with daf_dsi as the function 'time()' was being satisfied by`
		5988	`the RTL before being satisfied by the user libraries.`
		5989
		5990	`The compiler RTL is now treated as a library of last resort. It will be`
		5991	`processed once and it will be processed last.`
		5992
		5993
		5994	`Minor changes:`
		5995	`* JATS utility: build`
		5996	`* JATS utility: cache_dpkg`
		5997	`Extended the package search algorithm to locate a package within`
		5998	`GBE_DPKG_STORE. This archive will be searched last.`
		5999
		6000	`* JATS utility: gen_cots`
		6001	`Ensure label is not locked`
		6002	`Add option to allow user to specify source directory other than a package`
		6003	`that already exists in dpkg_archive.`
		6004
		6005	`* JATS directive: PackageFile`
		6006	`Now supports --Prod and --Debug options to limit the packaging process`
		6007	`to a specific type of build.`
		6008
		6009	`* JATS directive: GenerateFiles and RunTests`
		6010	`Added a --PackageInfo() replacement tag to allow package version information`
		6011	`to be extracted and passed to generator programs.`
		6012	`ie: --PackageInfo(sysbasetypes,syd,--fullversion)`
		6013
		6014	`Extended the --PackageBase() replacement tag to work with packages such as`
		6015	`sysbasetypes, where there is a .cr and a .syd type.`
		6016	`ie: --PackageBase(sysbasetypes,syd)`
		6017
		6018	`* JATS utility: release`
		6019	`Under windows, ensure that the directory C:\Clearcase exists. There have`
		6020	`been installations of Clearcase where this is directory does not exist.`
		6021
		6022	`* JATS utility: label`
		6023	`Added option: "-comment=Text" to allow a comment to be added to a label,`
		6024	`when it is being created.`
		6025
		6026	`Internal Changes`
		6027	`* JATS utility: create_dpkg`
		6028	`Refactored code to use JATS DescPkg class.`
		6029
		6030	`Added options to allow packaging to the various archives. This is of no use`
		6031	`to the normal developer, but will be used within the complete build system.`
		6032
		6033	`* Factored out the parsing of the BuildName directive`
		6034	`This process was being done in 3 locations - and there were getting`
		6035	`different results.`
		6036
		6037	`* ToolsetRequire directive`
		6038	`This has been extended to allow JATS to locate Toolset extensions within`
		6039	`packages. They should be placed within the tool/scripts directory`
		6040
		6041	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6042	`Version: JATS_2.51.0 Released: 15-Mar-06`
		6043	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6044	`Major changes:`
		6045
		6046	`* MCR toolset`
		6047	`Generate CD payload files in conjunction with the .BIN files`
		6048
		6049	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6050	`Version: JATS_2.50.0 Released: 15-Feb-06`
		6051	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6052	`Major changes:`
		6053	`* WIN32 utilities`
		6054	`Replaced a number of the Windows utilities ( cp, rm, mv ...)`
		6055	`with versions from the GNUWin32 project.`
		6056
		6057	`The 'cp' previously used could not recursively copy large directories`
		6058	`under Windows Server 2003, when both the source and destination are on the`
		6059	`same drive. ( dpkg_cache of ace ).`
		6060
		6061	`Minor changes:`
		6062	`* BuildVersion`
		6063	`The definition of VERSION_BUILD within the generated version-defs.h file`
		6064	`will have leading zeros removed, thus allowing it to be used within a 'C'`
		6065	`program without the number being interpreted as an octal constant.`
		6066
		6067	`The string form (VERSION_BUILD_STR) will retain the zeros.`
		6068
		6069	`* Unix Builds`
		6070	`Corrected several issues encountered when specifying the name of a static`
		6071	`library or a shared library.`
		6072
		6073	`JATS will prepend 'lib' to the user specified library name. Problems occurred`
		6074	`when the user specified a library name that started with 'lib'. Now, on Unix`
		6075	`systems, JATS will only prepend 'lib' if the library name does not already`
		6076	`start with 'lib'.`
		6077
		6078	`* BuildPkgArchive`
		6079	`Since 2.45.0 JATS will only transfer files for the BuildPkgArchive, if`
		6080	`they have not already been transferred. Added a test for the source`
		6081	`package being updated and then forceing the copy to be repeated.`
		6082
		6083	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6084	`Version: JATS_2.49.0 Released: 10-Feb-06`
		6085	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6086	`Major changes:`
		6087	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		6088	`Corrected a problem with the dependencies between a .REL file and the target`
		6089	`THX file. If the .REL files was modified the output THX file did not get`
		6090	`regenerated. This was only a problem in cases where the .REL file was`
		6091	`being manually maintained.`
		6092
		6093
		6094	`Minor changes:`
		6095	`* MakeAnt directive`
		6096	`Introduced a check to ensure that this directive is only used with a toolset`
		6097	`that can handle an 'ant' build file. Currently only the JAVA toolset`
		6098	`supports ANT builds.`
		6099
		6100	`* BuildPkgArchive directive`
		6101	`Correct problem in the caching of BuildPkgArchive packages in the case where`
		6102	`there is no GBE_DPKG_LOCAL on the machine.`
		6103
		6104	`* Label utility`
		6105	`Added a 'files=filename,filename' option to allow only specified`
		6106	`files to be labeled.`
		6107
		6108	`* Build. Parsing descpkg files`
		6109	`Corrected problem in which Java Manifest files were not parsed correctly`
		6110	`on Solaris.`
		6111
		6112	`* Generated makefiles`
		6113	`Fix a bug with the CompilerOptions that allowed a '0' definition to be set to`
		6114	`nothing.`
		6115
		6116	`* MOS Toolset`
		6117	`Added 'CompileOptions' of CcSupervisor.`
		6118	`This will set a MOS internal definition suitable for building specialised`
		6119	`modules.`
		6120
		6121	`* Utility: gen_cots`
		6122	`This utility will create a JATS buildable package froma dpkg_archive entry`
		6123	`and then check it in under clearcase.`
		6124
		6125	`JATS etool gen_cots -man will provide only help.`
		6126
		6127	`* Utilty cache_dpkg`
		6128	`Detect and repair incomplete copy operations.`

		6131	`Version: JATS_2.48.0 Released: 24-Jan-06`
		6132	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6133	`Major changes:`
		6134	`None`
		6135
		6136	`Minor changes:`
		6137	`* DEVI addressed`
		6138	`DEVI-022055 JATS builds DLLs with wrong copyright symbol in version resource`
5710	dpurdie	6139	`DEVI-022054 JATS puts "VIX Group test" in Product Name of Windows resource`
227	dpurdie	6140
		6141	`* Utility: release (cbuild)`
		6142	`Added an option to create a view configured to work with a branching`
		6143	`rule. A single branch can be named with the -branch option. eg:`
		6144
		6145	`jats release -extract 'label' -branch SITS_LEGACY_BRANCH`
		6146
		6147	`will create a view based on the named label, but suitable for creating`
		6148	`a patch for Sydney Legacy work.`
		6149
		6150	`* RunTest directive`
		6151	`The 'PATH' that the test uses is extended to allow access to programs that have`
		6152	`been installed with a InstallProg directive. This allows a test script to`
		6153	`test a program that is generated elsewhere within the package.`
		6154
		6155	`* PackageFile, Option --DirTree`
		6156	`Support for filenames that contain a "$" or a ' ' within the`
		6157	`--DirTree option. Implemented to allow entire JAVA class trees to be`
		6158	`packaged under JATS`
		6159
		6160	`Note: In general the use of a $ and space within a filename is not`
		6161	`supported within JATS.`
		6162
		6163	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		6164	`Added an eprog option. The allows any program to be run within the`
		6165	`sanitized environment provided by JATS.`
		6166
		6167	`The specified program may be in the current directory or the user's`
		6168	`PATH. If the program is a perl script then it will be run with the`
		6169	`JATS perl interpreter, otherwise it will be processed by the system.`
		6170
		6171	`Eg: jats eprog myscript arg1 arg2`
		6172	`Eg: jats ant`
		6173
		6174	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		6175	`Added an 'ant' command. ( "jats ant" )`
		6176
5710	dpurdie	6177	`This will run an VIX ANT build by scanning the current directory for a file`
227	dpurdie	6178	`called <ProjectName>depends.xml and then looking the a file called`
		6179	`<ProjectName>.xml. Jats will then create 'auto.xml' based on the`
		6180	`<ProjectName>depends.xml file and use ant to invoke the`
		6181	`<ProjectName>.xml file.`
		6182
5710	dpurdie	6183	`If the VIX build files cannot be found then ant is simply run and it will`
227	dpurdie	6184	`expect a build.pl file.`
		6185
		6186	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		6187	`Force the environment variable PERL5INC to be unset.`
		6188
		6189	`* Jats utility: create_dpkg`
		6190	`Simplify handling of ANT based projects. Look for the package within`
		6191	`the build/pkg subdirectory, in the JANTS style.`
		6192
		6193	`* Utility: gen_winrc (DEVI-022054)`
		6194	`Added a "'-product=text'" option to allow the product name to be specified.`
		6195
		6196	`* Build files`
		6197	`Handle the java generated descpkg files. These are a Manifest format with`
5710	dpurdie	6198	`VIX extensions.`
227	dpurdie	6199

		6201	`Version: JATS_2.47.0 Released: 20-Dec-05`
		6202	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6203	`Major changes:`
		6204	`* BuildVersion directive in build.pl`
		6205	`Correct a problem in the generation of version.c`
		6206	`The function GetModuleInfo() would return a string with a trailing`
		6207	`space when the 'array' mode was selected.`
		6208
		6209	`This may cause module validation to fail.`
		6210
		6211	`Minor changes:`
		6212	`* None`
		6213
		6214	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6215	`Version: JATS_2.46.0 Released: 08-Dec-05`
		6216	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6217	`Major changes:`
		6218	`* BuildProduct and BuildPlatforms directives`
		6219	`Added option --Uses=NAME`
		6220	`ie:`
		6221	`BuildProduct ( 'OBFTP,--Uses=TP5', 'MOSCF' );`
		6222
		6223	`This will create a OBFTP_MOSCF platform that will 'use' TP5`
		6224	`headers and libraries if none are specifically provided for the`
		6225	`OBFTP. It is the users responsibily to ensure that the two build`
		6226	`environments are compatible.`
		6227
		6228
		6229	`Minor changes:`
		6230	`* BuildName option`
		6231	`Modifications to allow the creation of COTS packages with buildnames`
5710	dpurdie	6232	`that do not confirm to the VIX naming scheme (--RelaxedVersion).`
227	dpurdie	6233
		6234	`* jats.bat`
		6235	`Ensure that GBE_BIN is not defined`
		6236	`It will be set by the jats.pl to a fully qualified path.`
		6237
		6238	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6239	`Version: JATS_2.45.0 Released: 29-Nov-05`
		6240	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6241	`Major changes:`
		6242	`* BuildPkgArchive directive`
		6243	`The operation of the BuildPkgArchive directive has been modified`
		6244	`so that a package will only be installed once. This significantly`
		6245	`speeds up multiple 'build' operations.`
		6246
		6247	`If the package is being extracted from the 'local archive', then`
		6248	`this mechanism is suppressed as packages in the local archive are`
		6249	`considered as under development and are subject to change.`
		6250
		6251	`If package cache is being refreshed, then the package will be`
		6252	`installed a second time. Thus it is possible to force the package to`
		6253	`be transferred into the 'interface' directory.`
		6254
		6255	`A BuildTags directory is used to track packages that have been`
		6256	`transferred.`
		6257
		6258	`* Internal changes to factor common code into a group of packages.`
		6259	`See notes below.`
		6260
		6261	`* WIN32 toolset`
		6262	`Allow the Microsoft preprocessor directive #import to operate`
		6263	`correctly.`
		6264
		6265	`Export the complete library search path into the build environment`
		6266	`for all Microsoft command, not just the linker and library commands.`
		6267
		6268	`* BuildVersion`
		6269	`Modifications to allow the generation of version files for C#`
		6270	`The mechanism has been extended to allow version information for`
		6271	`other langauges as needed.`
		6272
		6273
		6274	`Minor changes:`
		6275	`* Utility: gen_winrc.pl`
		6276	`Will extracted build number from the patch number, if present.`
		6277	`This information will be available to be placed into the generation`
		6278	`version strings.`
		6279
		6280	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		6281	`Fixed a problem detecting programs that were not in the local`
		6282	`package or an imported package.`
		6283
		6284	`* Toolsets: MOS_MRI`
		6285	`Generate an error if required tools are not found.`
		6286	`Previously this condition would generate a warning.`
		6287
		6288	`* BuildPkgArchive and LinkPkgArchive directives`
		6289	`Ensure that packages are only included once. The previous check`
		6290	`was half-hearted and could allow multiple packages of the same`
		6291	`version to be included. This could result in badly formed`
		6292	`makefiles and strange error messages.`
		6293
		6294	`Internal Changes`
		6295	`* Started to factor out internal packages and place them into a common`
		6296	`directory. This will allow common error handling thoughout the suite`
		6297	`of utilities.`
		6298
		6299	`Modified all utilities to utilize the common error reporting`
		6300	`functions.`

		6307	`Modified the windows shell to remove the use of the EXTENDED_LINE`
		6308	`cache. This did not work. Modified the extend.lst file to ensure`
		6309	`that sed did not process its arguments.`
		6310
		6311	`This has been done to address a problem seen within test scripts`
		6312	`within unit tests that use wildcard expansion. The windows shell was`
		6313	`incorrectly processing:`
		6314	`sed '-es~.*WIN32~~'`
		6315	`The '.*' construct was being seen as a wildcard and the shell was`
		6316	`then putting the argument into a command file - it was totally`
		6317	`confused.`
		6318
		6319	`NOTE: Attempted to remove use of EXTENDED_LINE, but this caused a`
		6320	`breakage with the DOS based gcc compiler( ie:H8S and others).`
		6321	`The construct`
		6322	`-D__SOURCE__=\"name\"`
		6323	`was corrupted somewhere. If the command is put in a command file,`
		6324	`then it works.`
		6325
		6326	`* MakeAnt directive`
		6327	`Added option: --GeneratedFile=PathOfFile`
		6328
		6329	`This option has the following effects`
		6330	`1) Marks the file a source file. It is then known to JATS and`
		6331	`can be used installed and manipulated.`
		6332
		6333	`2) Schedules the processing of the ANT build to be done`
		6334	`early - in the generated files phase.`
		6335
		6336	`Intended use. The creation of packages with a JNI. The Java`
		6337	`component needs to generate a header file early.`
		6338
		6339
		6340	`Minor changes:`
		6341	`* JATS post-installation script`
		6342	`Flag deployment tools and libraries as executable.`
		6343
		6344	`* Detection of extension type is case insensitive for non-unix`
		6345	`systems. Thus .h and .H files will considered header files in`
		6346	`windows.`
		6347
		6348	`* Build.pl rewrite tool`
		6349	`Handle all variants of BuildName`
		6350
		6351	`* Jats wrapper script`
		6352	`Generate an error if the JATS configuration variables are not usable`
		6353	`1) Contain spaces`
		6354	`2) Start with a // - Remote drives must be mapped`
		6355
		6356	`* Toolset`
		6357	`Added a 'LINUX' platform.`
		6358
		6359	`* JAVA toolset`
		6360	`Ensure the that build file passed via MakeAnt contains the following`
		6361	`directive:`
		6362
		6363	`includeAntRuntime="off"'`
		6364
		6365	`This MUST be used to ensure that ANT's classpath is not passed to`
		6366	`the java compiler thus ensuring that the compiler does not use ANT's`
		6367	`version of any JAR files that have not been specified by the user.`
		6368
		6369	`* GCC Toolset`
		6370	`Use -Map name to create map files as needed for GCC under Debian`
		6371
		6372	`* Makefile generation`
		6373	`When packages are used by name to resolve package location JATS`
		6374	`has been modified to use the package name specified by the user.`
		6375	`Previously JATS would use the package name found within the`
		6376	`descpkg file. In cases where the descpkg file was badly formed the`
		6377	`package could not be used.`
		6378
		6379	`* Unit Tests`
		6380	`The following environment variables are set:`
		6381
		6382	`GBE_TYPE - The type of build. Debug or production. This`
		6383	`will be set to either a 'P' or 'D'`
		6384
		6385	`GBE_HOST - The host machine we are running on.`
		6386	`This will be set to 'WIN' or Unix'`
		6387
		6388	`These variable should assist in the production of test scripts.`
		6389
		6390	`* New makefile.pl directive: SetValue`
		6391
		6392
		6393	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`

		6396	`Major changes:`
		6397	`* New Platform : "MCR" using the Mitsubishi m16c compiler.`
		6398
		6399	`Special features of this toolset.`
		6400	`1) A .THX source file will be converted to an obtect file`
		6401	`This allows processing of fonts within a THX file to be`
		6402	`incorporated within the target image.`
		6403
		6404	`2) Prog directive extensions:`
		6405	`--Set=Name=Value`
		6406	`The 'Name' is set to 'Value' at link time.`
		6407	`This allows the location of program segments to be set`
		6408
		6409	`--Ref=name`
		6410	`The name of a Release file. If provided, it will be used`
		6411	`to provide information that will be placed within the`
		6412	`THX header. The version number will be ignored. It`
		6413	`will be taken from the build version number.`
		6414
		6415	`Minor changes:`
		6416	`* MOS Toolset`
		6417	`Create the VisionClick files when the THX file is created.`
		6418	`Previously the files were created when the THX was installed or`
		6419	`packaged.`
		6420
		6421	`* Src directive`
		6422	`No generates a warning if no source files are located within the`
		6423	`directive. This is normally the result of a missing platform`
		6424	`specifier.`
		6425
		6426	`* WIN32 runtime support`
		6427	`Added the following 'Unix' style utilities to assist in testing.`
		6428	`1) od - dump files in octal and other formats`
		6429	`2) cmp - compare two files byte by byte`
		6430
		6431	`Internal:`
		6432	`Added an extension to allow the target toolset to handle the "Prog"`
		6433	`dependancy generation if required. This allow complex program`
		6434	`generation mechanisms to be handled by the toolset.`
		6435
		6436	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6437	`Version: JATS_2.42.0 Released: 19-Oct-05`
		6438	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6439	`Major changes:`
		6440	`* BuildAlias directive`
		6441	`Added options.`
		6442	`--Define - Does not create implicit platforms`
		6443	`--Target - Redeclares the alais as the list of all`
		6444	`platforms that are based on a given target or`
		6445	`targets.`
		6446	`Eg:`
		6447	`BuildAlias ( 'LMOS,--Target', 'LMOS_WIN32', 'LMOS_linux_armv4' );`
		6448	`BuildProduct ( 'GAK', 'LMOS', 'MOS68K', 'MOSCF' );`
		6449	`BuildProduct ( 'PCP', 'LMOS', 'MOS68K' );`
		6450
		6451	`Will export an alias of LMOS that can be used within makefile.pl's`
		6452	`that will be the list of all platforms that have a target of`
		6453	`'LMOS_WIN32' or 'LMOS_linux_armv4'.`
		6454
		6455	`Note the dual use of LMOS within the example. This is intentional.`
		6456	`The LMOS alias is used within the BuildProduct to simplify the`
		6457	`specification of all the LMOS targets.`
		6458
		6459
		6460	`Minor changes:`
		6461	`* Label utility`
		6462	`Will generate a warning message if it labels more than one`
		6463	`build.pl file`
		6464
		6465	`* Package directives. PackageFile.`
		6466	`Corrected a problem with wildcard expansion in which a --FilterIn`
		6467	`needed to be specified in order for the --FilterOut to operate.`
		6468	`Now all files in the tree are considered 'in' unless modified by the`
		6469	`--FilterIn option.`
		6470
		6471	`* jats release (cbuilder) utility`
		6472	`Correct use of the -prodOnly and -debugOnly flags.`
		6473	`The full name was not accepted; -debug and -prod was.`
		6474
		6475	`* Location of descpkg file`
		6476	`All makefile.pl's now know where the package descpkg file was`
		6477	`created. This simplifies the process og packaging this file as it`
		6478	`can be done within any makefile.pl.`
		6479
		6480	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6481	`Version: JATS_2.41.0 Released: 27-Sep-05`
		6482	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6483	`Major changes:`
		6484	`* RunTest directive`
		6485	`Extended the options and operation of RunTest`
		6486	`Additional options`
		6487	`--CopyIn=file`
		6488	`This will copy the specified file into the BIN directory before`
		6489	`the test is run. The file will be marked as executable. This`
		6490	`allows scripts and configuration files to be transferred into`
		6491	`the test area.`
		6492
		6493	`Additional operations`
		6494	`The arguments passed to the script/program allow a number of`
		6495	`transformations, similar to GenerateFiles. Transforms`
		6496	`--File(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a known file`
		6497	`--Local(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a file that has been Installed`
		6498	`--PackageBase(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a Package`
		6499	`Allows flags:`
		6500	`--dir - directory part of the pathname`
		6501	`--file - file part of the pathname`
		6502	`--abspath - as an absolute path`
		6503	`--absdrive - as an absolute path with drive letter (Windows)`
		6504
		6505	`Files and directories are prerequisites of the test. Their`
		6506	`existence is tested.`
		6507
		6508	`* Packaging Directives`
		6509	`Added a --Derived option to support the packaging of derived targets`
		6510	`such as LMOS.`
		6511
		6512	`PackageHdr ('*', 'file1.h', '--Derived=LMOS');`
		6513

		6518	`Will place file1.h into .../include/LMOS_WIN32/sys`
		6519
		6520	`* JAVA 1.4 and 1.5`
		6521	`Added support to the JATS JAVA platform to allow the user to specify`
		6522	`the version of Java to be used to build a package.`
		6523
		6524	`BuildPlatforms ( 'JAVA,--Version=1.5' );`
		6525
		6526	`The default will use the default machine version of JAVA.`
		6527	`This may not be sutable for all packages.`
		6528
		6529	`Non-default versions of JAVA require that an environment variable be`
		6530	`set to the root of the JDK directory. These are:`
		6531
		6532	`JAVA_HOME_1_4`
		6533	`JAVA_HOME_1_5`
		6534
		6535	`Minor changes:`
		6536	`* Script directive`

		6538	`These scripts are now always marked as executable.`
		6539
		6540	`* JATS environment`
		6541	`Ensure that all programs run under JATS in Windows have an uppercase`
		6542	`COMSPEC envvar. Windows appears to define a mixed case one. Fixed in`
		6543	`the JATS wrapper script.`
		6544
		6545	`* Label utility`
		6546	`Added -[no]checkout to control the labeling of checked out files.`
		6547	`There are three modes of operation:`
		6548	`1) -nocheckout Checked out files are not labeled`
		6549	`2) -checkout Only checked out files are labeled`

		6561	`This options retains the locked state of a label.`
		6562
		6563	`* AVR_IAR toolset`
		6564	`Extended the 'Prog' directive to allow a Program Loader to be`
		6565	`added to a program as it is created. The option is:`
		6566	`--ProgLoader=name`
		6567
		6568	`* Package directives. PackageFile`
		6569	`Added support for packaging of directory trees.`
		6570	`Options to do this are:`
		6571	`--TreeDir=name`
		6572	`--FilterOut=regexp`
		6573	`--FilterIn=regexp`
		6574	`--StripDir`
		6575
		6576	`Only a single directory can be specified.`
		6577	`Multiple filters are allowed.`
		6578	`The directories must be within the current directory. It is not`
		6579	`possible to search outside the subdirectory tree below the makefile.`
		6580
		6581	`The filters allow elements within the directory to be selected.`
		6582	`The filters are regular expressions. Examples:`
		6583
		6584	`'--FilterIn=\.h$' - Select all files ending with .h`
		6585	`'--FilterOut=MyHeader.h' - Except this one`
		6586
		6587	`The --StripDir option will remove the TreeDir directory from the`
		6588	`files. This allows the top level directory to be stripped off.`
		6589
		6590
		6591	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6592	`Version: JATS_2.39.0 Released: 14-Sep-05`
		6593	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6594	`Major changes:`
		6595	`* Make commands`
		6596	`Consolidated the parsing of the OPTIONS arguments.`
		6597

		6613
		6614	`* Deployment`
		6615	`Suppress testing of compiler existence when used in conjunction`
		6616	`with deployment operations.`
		6617
		6618	`* Release utility`
		6619	`Add options to build only the debug or the production versions.`
		6620	`The default is to build both. Note: User option may be further`
		6621	`restricted by options within the build.`
		6622
		6623	`* PackageLib, InstallLib and MergeLib directives in makefile.pl`
		6624	`The use of @LIBS and @MLIBS in unix systems was causing a`
		6625	`problem as these variables already had a 'lib' prepended to the`
		6626	`list of libraries. These directives would add another 'lib' to the`
		6627	`list of libraries under unix causing a mismatch.`
		6628
		6629	`Corrected by stripping liblib from the names within these`
		6630	`directives.`
		6631
		6632	`* MakeProject directive`
		6633	`If the project build fails the log file was not being displayed`
		6634	`because 'make' stops when a command fails.`
		6635
		6636	`The MakeProject operations have been modified to ensure that the`
		6637	`log file is always displayed. The exit code of the build command`
		6638	`is preserved.`
		6639
		6640	`* Auto build utility jats-rewrite.pl`
		6641	`Modified to support the rewrite of Java 'using' and 'project'`
		6642	`statements.`

		6658	`number.`
		6659
		6660	`Minor changes:`
		6661	`* AddFlags directives`
		6662	`Added a --NoWarn option that will suppress the warning of`
		6663	`duplicate flags being added.`
		6664
		6665	`* GBE_CORE environment variable (Windows)`
		6666	`Ensure that GBE_CORE has a driver letter. This allows use of JATS`
		6667	`loaded into the same dynamic view as the user code.`
		6668
		6669	`* Mug File Generation`
		6670	`Added support to allow load files to include other load files.`
		6671
		6672	`* 'cbuild' or 'release' command`
		6673	`Added a -latestroot=xxxx option. This is a work around for the`
		6674	`problem where the root level directory in the VOB has not been`
		6675	`labeled. After using this switch add the label to the root`
		6676	`directory.`
		6677
		6678	`The need to use this this switch indicates that the view is NOT`
		6679	`reproducible.`

		6688	`longer a list of directories.`
		6689
		6690	`Removal of the setup of Microsoft Visual Studio 6. This is now`
		6691	`done within the toolset.`

		6708	`Enhanced (thanks Ross) to allow PATH information for various`
		6709	`target platforms to be extracted.`
		6710
		6711	`Better support for Product families. This is only an issue`
		6712	`for WIN32 derived families due to the generation of a list of`
		6713	`libraries. The list now observes Product hierarchy.`
		6714
		6715	`* Utility: release (cbuilder)`
		6716	`Added -noruntests option too suppress the running of unit tests`
		6717	`Units tests will still be run by default.`

		6729	`* makefile.pl's`
		6730	`GenerateFiles directive. Added a --Prog specifier to allow tools`
		6731	`to be generated within the same script. Example:`
		6732
		6733	`Prog('*', 'Myprog', @OBJS );`
		6734	`GenerateFiles ('*', "--Prog=MyProg",`
		6735	`'--Prereq(infile)',`

		6738	`RunTest directive. Added a --Auto option to flags tests that can`
		6739	`be run within the Build Systems Auto Build environment. These`
		6740	`tests will be run with the 'run_unit_tests' target. All tests will`
		6741	`be run with the 'run_tests' targets. Only tests that confirm to`
5710	dpurdie	6742	`the VIX "Unit Test Automation" guidelines should be marked as`
227	dpurdie	6743	`-- Auto.`
		6744

		6748
		6749	`* Make run_test and run_unit_test operation`
		6750	`The search path for DLL's or Shared Libraries is extended to`
		6751	`include all Shared Libraries in the build package list as well`

		6753	`locate required Shared Libraries at runtime.`
		6754
		6755	`* WIN32 targets built using Visual Studio 6`
		6756	`The path to the compiler is setup within JATS. It is no longer`

		6758	`indeterminate when multiple versions of Visual Studio are`
		6759	`installed on the machine.`
		6760
		6761	`* WINCE Targets`
		6762	`The name of the SDK is case sensitive.`

		6785
		6786	`Minor changes:`

		6823
		6824	`Minor changes:`
		6825	`* Correct the case of 4 toolset files. The files were created under`
		6826	`windows, which has a habit of capitalizing filenames.`
		6827	`This should not affect current users.`

		6843	`* Jats wrapper script`
		6844	`Windows: Ensure that cmd.exe is in the users PATH. Without cmd.exe`

		6847
		6848	`* LinkPkgArchive and BuildPkgArchive`
		6849	`Processing soft links. Generate a warnings if a package soft`

		6877
		6878	`* MakeAnt directive`
		6879	`Now supports --Debug and --Prod options to limit the building of`

		6918	`* Support for Windows DLLs`
		6919	`When building a WIN32 target the file interface/set_WIN32.bat is`

		7001	`with only a comma between the platforms: No whitespace`
		7002	`If whitespace did exist then the makefile.pl would not do what`

		7005
		7006	`* GenerateFiles directive within makefile.pl`
		7007	`Allow 3 different bracket styles for the arguments to allow for`

		7249	`the required package is not available. A "--package" option, to`
		7250	`the build command, will prevent this behaviour.`
		7251
		7252
		7253	`Minor changes:`
		7254	`* create_dpkg utility`
		7255	`Touch descpkg files when packages are merged. This will allow`
		7256	`utilities that use the timestamp of this file to determine that`
		7257	`the package has been altered.`

		7279
		7280	`The default operation is to replace the package indpkg_archive.`
		7281
		7282	`* Simplify the use of GBE_BUILDFILTER`
		7283	`GBE_BUILDFILTER should be used to limit the creation of makefiles`
		7284	`to those that are supported by the underlying hardware.`
		7285
		7286	`The change allows the construct`
		7287	`GBE_BUILDFILTER=SOLARIS --TARGET=SOLARIS`
		7288	`to be replaced by the simpler`
		7289	`GBE_BUILDFILTER=SOLARIS`

		7332	`Correct two common situations`
		7333	`1) // Style comments. The following line was ignored`

		7335	`ansi, but is often done.`
		7336
		7337	`* GCC toolset`
		7338	`Corrected operation of the C++ compiler. The object file was not`
		7339	`being created in the correct place.`
		7340
		7341	`* jats "label"`
		7342	`The -auto -clone options allow a label to be created if its not`

		7408
		7409	`* Jats wrapper`

		7425	`NoPDB - Disable the generation of PDBs`
		7426	`PDB - Enable the generation of PDBs (default).`
		7427
		7428	`These options operation affect all components within the`

		7437	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7438	`Version: JATS_2.14.0 Released: 18-Mar-05`

		7451	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7452	`Version: JATS_2.13.0 Released: 18-Mar-05`
		7453	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7454	`Major changes:`
		7455	`* Modified the order in which the makefiles passes operate. Merged`
		7456	`the make_shlib and the install_shlib into one phase. The`
		7457	`implication of this is that Shared Libraries that are created can`
		7458	`"installed" so that other shared libraries can link against them.`
		7459	`The order in which the makefile.pl's are processed is important as`
		7460	`this is the order in which the libraries will be created and`
		7461	`installed.`
		7462
		7463	`This solution does not handle mutual shared libraries: two shared`
		7464	`libraries that depend on each other.`
		7465
		7466	`This is an issue only in Solaris and Linux systems that do not`
		7467	`generate separate stub libraries to link against.`
		7468
		7469	`Minor changes:`
		7470	`* WIN32 and WinCE Toolsets`
		7471	`Building up resources. The RC compiler can now locate resource files`
		7472	`in the "local" and "interface" directory.`
		7473
		7474	`* The version.c, version.h and descpkg files will be created in the`
		7475	`first directory named with a BuildDir directive, unless a`
		7476	`"src" directory is encountered. This mimics the operation`
		7477	`of the older JATS, without the need for a "src" directory.`
		7478
		7479	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7480	`Version: JATS_2.12.0 Released: 18-Mar-05`
		7481	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7482	`Major changes:`
		7483
		7484	`Minor changes:`
		7485	`* Added a --Depend=xxx[,yyy]+ option to the Src directive`
		7486	`Not needed for C and C++ files, but may be used in conjunction`
		7487	`with assembler files to indicate that the file includes another`
		7488	`file.`
		7489
		7490	`* Fixed problem with the local_dpkg_archive consistency test when`
		7491	`a soft link is used to redirect to the package.`
		7492
		7493	`* Win32 and WinCE toolsets`
		7494	`Added a compiler option to enable Run Time Type Information.`
		7495	`CompileOptions ('WIN32', 'RTTI' );`
		7496
		7497	`Add an option to Shared Library creation to allow the generation of`
		7498	`a Resource Only DLL. Option is "--ResourceOnly"`
		7499
		7500	`Add an option to allow Resources to be built into Static Libraries`
		7501	`in the same manner at Shared Libraries.`
		7502
		7503	`* WinCE toolsets`
		7504	`Mutual DLL support corrected. Library path is used to resolve`
		7505	`compiler specific libraries.`
		7506
		7507	`* SOLARIS toolset`
		7508	`Prevent the compiler displaying its command line. This is in line`
		7509	`with the other tools sets. The commands can be seen with`
		7510	`OPTIONS=args and this may be set in the users environment.`
		7511
		7512	`Modified the cleanup process to delete the links to shared`
		7513	`libraries. Only files, and not links to files, where being`
		7514	`cleaned up.`
		7515
		7516	`* Microtec tools set (MOS)`
		7517	`Dependancy generation can display commands with OPTIONS=args`
		7518
		7519	`* jats_rewriter.pl`
		7520	`Allow BuildName and LinkPkgArchive directives to contains arguments`
		7521	`with either " or ' characters.`

		7524	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7525	`Version: JATS_2.11.0 Released: 15-Mar-05`
		7526	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7527	`Major changes:`
		7528	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		7529	`The entire "include" directory is copied into the interface area`
		7530	`The installer was trying to be too smart and only copy platform`
		7531	`specific files,but was missing out many needed subdirectories`
		7532
		7533	`Reduce the warnings generated. These were an artifact of the process`
		7534	`of picking up all the strange variations of the directory structures.`
		7535
		7536	`* Cleaned up the handling of object files that were generated by the`
		7537	`user.`
		7538
		7539	`* MOS Microtec Toolset`
		7540	`Always present an absolute filename to the compiler`
		7541	`Display a shortened filename to allow the user to track progress`
		7542
		7543	`This will remove error messages about the path being too long`
		7544	`for the -Gf option.`
		7545
		7546	`Minor changes:`
		7547	`* SOLARIS Toolset`
		7548	`Remove duplicate -KPIC flags on the command line`
		7549
		7550	`* Win32 and WinCE Toolset`
		7551	`Source files are either compiled by the C compiler as C files or`
		7552	`the C++ compiler as C++ files. The option to allow the compiler to`
		7553	`figure out what sort of file it is has been removed.`
		7554
		7555	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7556	`Version: JATS_2.10.0 Released: 11-Mar-05`
		7557	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7558	`Major changes:`
		7559	`* Extended BuildName to accept the form`
		7560	`BuildName ('package_name', 'nn.nn.nn.xxx' );`
		7561
		7562	`* MOS68K and MOSCF toolset.`
		7563	`Extended the --board option to allow the user to define code and`
		7564	`data addresses for the board.`
		7565
		7566	`BuildProduct( 'TP5', 'MOSCF','--board=01234H,05678H' );`
		7567
		7568	`Will set the code,data address for the debugable image`
		7569
		7570	`* Extended the PackageXxxxx options`
		7571	`1) Allow --Platform=xxx,yyy`
		7572	`Where xxx is a directory prefix and yyy is suffix to the`
		7573	`"platform" name. Only useful within the context of the`
		7574	`PackageFile`
		7575
		7576	`2) The operation of --Platform=xxx when used by the PackageFile`
		7577	`directive now treats the xxx directory as a prefix to the`
		7578	`platform name. Other Package directives still treat it as a`
		7579	`suffix. In practice this is the logical use.`
		7580
		7581	`* Allow InstallLib and PackageLib to install a file that has been`
		7582	`discovered with a "Src" directive. This allows generated files`
		7583	`to be installed and packaged.`
		7584
		7585	`Minor changes:`
		7586
		7587	`* cache_dpkg utility`
		7588	`If a package is found in the local_dpkg_archive then the cache`
		7589	`entry will be deleted and the master archive will not be accessed.`
		7590
		7591	`* label utility`
		7592	`New option -auto to create and label`
		7593
		7594	`* Build WIN32 and WinCe Mutual DLLs with all the object files`
		7595	`This allows the generated import library to contain C++ names`
		7596
		7597	`* The BuildDirTree directive now supports an empty first argument`
		7598	`This allows a NULL tree.dir file, while still creating the root`
		7599	`directory. ie:`
		7600
		7601	`BuildDirTree ( '', 'pkg' );`
		7602
		7603	`* Fixed DEVIM 00019520`
		7604	`The problem was that /bin/pwd could return a different path to`
		7605	`the Cwd:getpwd() function. Solution: Use one mechanism throughout.`
		7606
		7607
		7608	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7609	`Version: JATS_2.9.0 Released: 28-Feb-05`
		7610	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7611	`Major changes:`
		7612	`* First release for Back Office and Front Office use.`
		7613
		7614	`* Added the jats tool jats_rewrite.pl to rewrite build.pl files.`
		7615	`To be used by the nightly build process.`
		7616
		7617	`* Work around a problem in the Microtec 68K compiler.`
		7618	`The compiler uses temp files. If the temp file name that the`
		7619	`compiler uses already exists, then the compiler will not delete`
		7620	`the file. Instead it appends information to the existing file.`
		7621
		7622	`The workaround is to create the temp files within the build's`
		7623	`interface directory and to remove all temp files before each`
		7624	`compilation.`
		7625
		7626	`This bug does not affect the Mictotec CF compiler.`
		7627
		7628	`Minor changes:`
		7629	`* The "jats clobber" command will remove version definition file, if`
		7630	`one is being produced.`
		7631
		7632	`* Using JATS within a Visual Studio project. The "rebuild all"`
		7633	`option now translates to the JATS unbuild command to do a better`
		7634	`job of cleaning the workspace.`
		7635
		7636	`* Added GetPackageRoot() directive to support the packaging of MOS`
		7637
		7638	`* Generate error message for misuse of the SubDir directive`
		7639
		7640	`* Modified BuildName to allow an '-' in the name.`
		7641	`This provides backward compatibility with existing packages.`
		7642
		7643	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7644	`Version: JATS_2.8.0 Released: 17-Feb-05`
		7645	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7646	`Major changes:`
		7647	`* Added some new WINCE based targets. These require WINCE SDKs to be`
		7648	`installed in order for the compilers to work.`
		7649
		7650	`* New PLATFORMS are WCEIT3000, WCEPA961 and WCEPCM7220`
		7651
		7652	`* All invocations of xmake specify the name of the makefile`
		7653	`This allow GNUMakefiles and the Jats makefiles to exist in the`
		7654	`same directory`
		7655
		7656	`* Overcome a limitation of the Microtec compiler in which the flag`
		7657	`_DEBUG is defined enev in production builds - contrary to the`
		7658	`documenattion.`
		7659
		7660	`Minor changes:`
		7661	`* Process of descpkg files allows for both Unix and DOS line endings`
		7662	`Under Unix JATS would report that the package names don't match`
		7663
		7664	`* Corrected a problem with BuildPkgArchive in which file names with`
		7665	`spaces could not be soft linked. Only affects Unix systems.`
		7666
		7667	`* Added a -rename to the "jats label" utility.`
		7668	`Ensure that the user specified label exists in the VOB`
		7669
		7670	`* Correct problem with "make clean" that resulted in a verbose display`
		7671	`when the verbose option had not been selected`
		7672
		7673	`* Correct a problem with "make unbuild". Changes in the build files`
		7674	`would prevent the execution of the command. This command should`
		7675	`be exempt from this test.`
		7676
		7677	`* Correct a problem with "make clean" in the WIN32 and WINCE`
		7678	`platforms where the .exp files were not deleted.`
		7679
		7680	`* The "JATS clobber" command now invokes "make clobber" and "build`
		7681	`clobber". The result is as clean a clean as it can be.`
		7682
		7683	`Note: Jats "clean" does not remove a lot of files. These can be`
		7684	`removed with "unbuild" and "unpackage". This is what "clobber"`
		7685	`does.`
		7686
		7687	`* The operation of "build clobber" has been cleaned up. It will`
		7688	`not try to invoke make if the makefiles have already been removed.`
		7689
		7690
		7691	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7692	`Version: JATS_2.7.0 Released: 09-Feb-05`

		7694	`Major changes:`
		7695	`* First release with support for the DAFBR compiler`
		7696
		7697	`* Extended MergeLibrary. Added per-file options of:`
		7698	`--Interface - Pull lib from Interface directory`
		7699	`--Local - Pull lib from Local directory (default)`
		7700	`--SubDir=pathname - Pull lib from a subdirectory`
		7701	`Note: xxxx,pathname still works`
		7702
		7703	`* Added "jats label" to provide a number of useful labeling`
		7704	`operations.`
		7705
		7706	`* Added extensive help to JATS. JATS -man.`

		7710	`Minor changes`
		7711	`* Added an 'ebin' command to jats to allow the JATS binary tools to`
		7712	`be run in a controlled environment from the command line.`
		7713
		7714	`* Prune the list of library paths passed through to the various`
		7715	`toolsets. If a directory does not have any files in it then the`
		7716	`directory is not added to the library path.`
		7717
		7718	`Thus if a library is located in xxxx/lib/WIN32 then JATS will`
		7719	`not add the xxxx/lib to the path.`
		7720
		7721	`* cbuilder will now look in all VOBs for the user specified label.`
		7722	`The program has a list of "known" labels which it will search`
		7723	`first in an attempt to speed up the process.`
		7724
		7725	`* The AddFlags directive will issue a warning if the flags does not`
		7726	`begin with a -D or a -U. The user should not be using compiler`
		7727	`specific flags.`
		7728
		7729	`* The use of linker flags will issue a warning.`
		7730
		7731	`* Process the common makefile.pl after the toolset has been`
		7732	`determined. This allows the toolset to extend the CompileOptions`
		7733	`such they are available to the common makefile.pl.`
		7734
		7735	`* Added the WIN32 CompileOptions "jats_v1" to force JATS to specify`
		7736	`a number of compile time definitions used by earlier versions of`
		7737	`JATS.`
		7738
		7739	`* Fixed bug in the --Debug option to the PackageProg directives that`
		7740	`caused both the production and debug versions to be packaged.`
		7741
		7742	`* The gen_msproject utility now creates simpler names for the MS`
		7743	`projects that it creates. The name no longer contains the full`
		7744	`pathname, thus making them shorter and readable.`
		7745
		7746	`* The ShowDlls utility now handles absolute and relative paths to`
		7747	`the initial DLL or EXE.`
		7748
		7749	`* Correct problem in which the use of Generate/Rule directives may`
		7750	`fail since prerequisite subdirectories were not being created`
		7751	`since the "generate" phase was not being run.`
		7752
		7753	`Added messages to prompt the user to remove Generate, Generated`
		7754	`and Rule directives. Use the GenerateFiles directive`
		7755
		7756	`* JATS.BAT file will exclude LINUX builds by default.`
		7757
		7758	`* The make NODEPEND=1 processing now does not recurse at all.`
		7759	`Previously each subdirectory was visited - only to do nothing.`
		7760
		7761	`* Correct a problem in creating stub libraries for MOS targets if`
		7762	`the stub library object was not listed with the SharedLib's`
		7763	`objects.`
		7764
		7765	`* Correct a problem with the MS Studio support. The invoked make`
		7766	`command is XXX_all_debug. There was a problem with this command in`
		7767	`that it did not do any dependancy checking and would not always`
		7768	`build defendants.`
