		300	`a part of the TOOLSET alias AND is also member of the DEVLINUX alias.`
		301	`It could also have been written as:`
		302	`PackageFile ('--Alias=TOOLSET',--Alias=DEVLINUX', ...)`
		303	`but NOT as:`
		304	`PackageFile ('--Alias=TOOLSET:DEVLINUX', ...)`

		2183	`This target will now consume headers/libraries from a VS6 directory.`
		2184	`This has been provided to allow the use of Dinkumware_STL to be limited`
		2185	`to this one compiler. Specifically we need to excluded the use of`
		2186	`Dinkumware from VS2010 builds.`

		2250	`Windows EnvVars as case insensitive.`
		2251
377	dpurdie	2252	`A useful side effect of this change is that VS2010 running on`

375	dpurdie	2255

		2274	`Debug information is created for both production and debug builds`
		2275	`Debug information is placed in a .dbg file, which is linked to the`
		2276	`executable, or shared library. The .dbg file is packaged in the manner`
		2277	`as the main binary.`
		2278
		2279	`This methodology does not bloat the binary with debug information, while`
		2280	`retaining debug information. The binary transferred to an embedded`
		2281	`device does not contain debug information, yet the image used in the`
		2282	`debugger can still access the debug information. This is the best of`
		2283	`both worlds.`

		2298	`* Jats Sandbox`
		2299	`Softlinks to packages within the sandbox are now relative to the root of`
		2300	`the sandbox. This allows packages in the sandbox to be created under one`
		2301	`machine architecture and consumed under another.`
		2302
		2303	`* RIORDS Platform`

		3102	`under windows.`
		3103
		3104	`* Solaris 10, 64 Bit Sparc Builds`
		3105	`All compiles are done in a position independent manner (-KPIC)`
		3106	`This solved issues where static libraries are linked into shared`
		3107	`libraries.`
		3108
		3109	`* Solaris builds`
		3110	`Program and Shared library dependency checking is now done before`
		3111	`the program/library objects are built. Thus errors associated with missing`
		3112	`dependencies occur before objects are built and the user can see the cause`
		3113	`of the build failure.`
		3114
		3115
		3116	`Internal changes:`
		3117	`* Moved 'jats vars' functionality into a separate program`

		3191
313	dpurdie	3192	`* Perl Modules`
		3193	`Included the most recent version of the Pod module within the JATS`

		3213
		3214	`Once labels have been applied a check is done to ensure that`
		3215	`the labels have been placed. The check is to attempt to find`
		3216	`new files and folders to label - there should be none.`
		3217
		3218	`* Jats core`
		3219	`Improved the auto location of the base directory of the build to allow`

		3232
309	dpurdie	3233	`The cmdfile utility creates paths with file path separators as discovered`
307	dpurdie	3234	`in the PATH EnvVar. Now that PATH is nice it means that the use of cmdfile`
309	dpurdie	3235	`to create shell scripts resulted in scripts with unsuitable separators.`
307	dpurdie	3236

		3265
		3266	`WCEPSION_500_VS2005 build cannot consume build artifacts from the`

		3342	`as an error. The Microtec tools sets will create a 'pop-up' if`
		3343	`this occurs.`
		3344
		3345	`* The LinkSandbox directive is not allowed when GBE_ABT is set.`
		3346	`This directive is highly discouraged in development: Use a jats 'sandbox'`

		3349

		3430	`Borlands Delphi Version 7.`
		3431
		3432	`See Jats Reference Manual for complete details and Delphi specific options`
		3433	`to the Prog and SharedLib directives.`
		3434
		3435	`This toolset has a number of limitations:`
		3436	`1) It can build either Debug or Production, but not both, in a single`
		3437	`makefile.pl. This is caused by the Delphi limitation that library`
		3438	`names cannot be changed.`
		3439
		3440	`2) The generation of dependencies between the source and the generated`
		3441	`artifacts is very simplistic.`
		3442
		3443	`Units are generated with the 'Lib' directive. The name of the Unit and the`
		3444	`name of the source are linked. The source should not be provided.`
		3445	`ie: Lib ('*', 'MyUnit' );`
		3446	`Will create a unit called MyUnit.dcu from the source file 'MyUnit.pas'`
		3447
		3448	`Packages are generated with the SharedLib directive starting with a .dpk`
		3449	`file.`
		3450	`ie: SharedLib ( '*', 'MyPackage' );`
		3451	`will create a package called MyPackage.bpl/dcp from the source file`
		3452	`MyPackage.dpk.`
		3453
		3454	`Libraries are generated with the SharedLib directive starting with a .dpr`
		3455	`file.`
		3456	`ie: SharedLib ( '*', 'MyDll' );`
		3457	`will create a package called MyDll.dll/lib from the source file`
		3458	`MyDll.dpr.`
		3459
		3460	`Programs are generated with the Prog directive starting with a .dpr`
		3461	`file.`
		3462	`ie: Prog ( '*', 'MyProg' );`
		3463	`will create a package called MyProg.exe from the source file`
		3464	`MyProg.dpr.`
		3465
		3466	`Minor changes:`
		3467	`* New EnvVar: DELPHI7`
		3468	`Required only if Borland Delphi 7 has not being installed in the`
		3469	`standard location or if the Windows Short Name is not`
		3470	`c:\PROGRA~1\Borland\Delphi7`
		3471
		3472	`* BuildVersion directive`
		3473	`Added a 'Style' of 'Delphi' to allow the generation of version information`
		3474	`in a Delphi Unit.`
		3475
		3476	`Modified the operation of the "C" style generation.`
		3477	`If the name of the file is provided via '--File', then the generated files`
		3478	`will be 'known' to JATS and can be consumed from any makefile. JATS will`
		3479	`'know' the location of the files.`
		3480
		3481	`* Sanity test on the names of libraries and programs`
		3482	`Some characters are not allowed: ie: '/' as this is a mistake.`
		3483
		3484	`Internal Changes:`
		3485	`* ToolsetSHLD functions`
		3486	`Pass in the shared library version string as an argument`
		3487	`Means that the core of JATS can manage this information in a manner`
		3488	`that is decoupled from the toolsets.`
		3489
		3490	`* Reworked the mechanism used to hold data about libraries, shared libraries`
		3491	`merged libraries and programs. Created a class to manipulate build targets`
		3492	`and to maintain information about the contents of the targets.`

		3501
289	dpurdie	3502	`* Jats.bat and Jats.sh now provide a default Read Only username/password`

287	dpurdie	3504
289	dpurdie	3505	`NOTE: Windows users will need to update their JATS.BAT file in order`

287	dpurdie	3508
		3509	`Minor changes:`

		4526	`Major changes:`
229	dpurdie	4527	`* Jats Release Mechanism`
		4528	`Jats can now release itself. This is not the same a building all of its`
		4529	`internal components, but it does mean that a new version of JATS can be`
		4530	`released using the 'standard' mechanism.`
		4531
		4532	`Jats releases will be tracked in Release Manager.`
		4533
		4534	`A side effect of this is that the labelling scheme will change to align`

		4536
		4537	`* Running Jats`
		4538	`Running Jats from within a ClearCase view is being deprecated.`

		4549	`Jats will generate a warning if the version of Perl in use is newer`

		4551	`compatible. Currently JATS has been extensively tested with 5.8.8.`
		4552
		4553	`* Build Directive: BuildVersion`
		4554	`This directive has been extended to allow the creation of a 'properties'`

		4556	`build.`
		4557

		4560	`Perl 5.10 has not been extensively tested - yet.`
		4561
		4562	`* Jats Tool: CCbc2`
		4563	`Added utility to use BeyondCompare (BC2) to compare files in two`
		4564	`packages defined as ClearCase labels. The utility creates two dynamic views`
		4565	`and starts BeyondCompare. The views are destroyed at the end of the`
		4566	`process.`
		4567
		4568	`Requires BeyondCompare to be installed in its default location.`

		4576	`* Jats test runtime helper scripts set_PLATFORM.bat`
		4577	`Uses SETLOCAL / ENDLOCAL to prevent environment variables being exported`

		4581	`Consistent cross-platform handling of programs found in the current`
		4582	`directory.`

		4611
		4612	`* Solaris Toolset`
		4613	`Disable the use of purify, purecov and quantify when building shared`

		4620	`Major changes:`
		4621
		4622	`Minor changes:`
		4623	`* WINCE toolsets`
		4624	`Added a run-time test for the presence of the required toolset`
		4625	`This will report an error if the required WINCE toolset has not been`
		4626	`installed. This is better than obscure message generated by the compilers`
		4627	`when header files cannot be found.`
		4628
		4629	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		4630	`If the generating tool can only be found in the users path, don't make`

		4632	`that are difficult to solve.`
		4633
		4634	`* MakePerlModule directive`
		4635	`Extended the directive syntax to allow command line options to be passed`

		4641	`-dirs=xxx options.`
		4642
		4643	`* Jats Tool: release`
		4644	`Corrected a problem when multiple ant builds where located within the`
		4645	`build view. Now all ants builds will be perform.`
		4646
		4647	`Expanded the operation of the '-build=name' option such that it can be`
		4648	`used to limit ANT builds by specifying the name of the depends.xml file.`
		4649
		4650	`* Jats Tool: CCdiff`
		4651	`Added utility to provide difference reports in a format suitable to be`

		4764	`Version: 2.71.1.cr Released: 16-Oct-07`

		4766	`Major changes:`
		4767

		4769	`PackageLib directive`
		4770	`The construct "PackageLib( '*', @SHLIBS, @LIBS );" now works as expected.`
		4771	`Packaging multiple libraries and shared libraries works as expected.`
		4772	`Packaging multiple shared libraries works as expected.`
		4773
		4774	`MakefileGenerate directive`

		4778	`Multiple Parent detection`
		4779	`A makefile.pl that is invoked from more than one other makefile.pl, or the`

		4782	`condition will be treated as a warning.`
		4783
		4784	`Solaris Toolset`
		4785	`Added option '--WithMisalign' to the SharedLib directive.`
		4786	`When used in conjunction with the 'misalign' CompleOption this option will`
		4787	`cause a machine specific object file (misalign.o) to be included in the`
		4788	`link.`
		4789
		4790	`Programs that are created with 'misalign' will automatically include the`
		4791	`misalign.o object file. The fact that shared libraries do not may be an`
		4792	`indication that this is a bad thing to do.`
		4793
		4794	`Make and generation of subdirectories`
		4795	`Fixed an issue which caused created directories to have a bad timestamp.`
		4796	`This could result in multiple attempts to generate the source dependency`
		4797	`file.`
		4798
		4799	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		4800	`Version: 2.71.0.cr Released: 10-Oct-07`
		4801	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		4802	`Major changes:`
		4803	`Makefile generation and make recursion`
		4804	`Extensive changes to the makefiles that are generated by JATS and method by`
		4805	`which JATS recuses through subdirectories during a build.`
		4806
		4807	`Summary of changes:`
		4808	`- Removed the use of 'make' to perform recursion over subdirectories`
		4809	`and platforms. This has been replaced by a JATS program that performs`
		4810	`the same task - only a great deal faster and with a greater scope for`
		4811	`flexibility.`
		4812
		4813	`The user interface remains identical: jats make ....`
		4814
		4815	`- Replaced the generated 'Makefile' with 'Makefile.gbe'. This is a text`
		4816	`file that provides sufficient information to allow JATS to locate the`
		4817	`interface directory and associated build information.`
		4818
		4819	`- Significant speed up in determining the need to rebuild a makefile.`
		4820	`On a large package this has been reduced from 30+ seconds to less`
		4821	`than one second.`
		4822
		4823	`- Significant speed up of large recursive builds through intelligent`
		4824	`building of the 'make_init' target. This is only processed once for`
		4825	`each platform type. Previously it was processed in each and every`
		4826	`makefile. This make target is used, internally, to perform sanity`
		4827	`testing of the compiler environment and to display the name of the`
		4828	`toolset. It is an expensive operation.`
		4829
		4830	`- Intelligent speed up of large recursive through better mechanism`
		4831	`for creating required directories. These are now created on the fly,`
		4832	`rather than via a slow recursive pass though all makefiles.`
		4833
		4834	`- Better makefile rebuilding`
		4835	`Makefiles can be rebuilt on the fly. The previous system was prone to`
		4836	`detecting that makefiles needs to be re-built, but then not re-`
		4837	`building them.`
		4838
		4839	`- Detection of build file changes`
		4840	`The make process will detect that the build file has been modified`
		4841	`and that the component has not been rebuilt. This is a warning. It`
		4842	`does not prevent the 'make' operation.`
		4843
		4844	`- Quieter make output`
		4845	`The 'Nothing to be done' message has been disabled.`
		4846
		4847
		4848	`Minor changes:`
		4849	`MakeAnt Directive`
		4850	`Allows ANT_HOME to be a path with spaces. ie: c:\Program Files\apache-ant-1.6.5`
		4851
		4852	`JATS command "debug" and "prod"`
		4853	`These now handle make arguments and options correctly. Thus the command:`
		4854	`jats prod WIN32 OPTIONS=args`
		4855	`Will correctly do a production build for WIN32 with command execution`
		4856	`display. Before, the system would attempt to process prod_OPTIONS=args.`
		4857
		4858	`CSHARP toolset`
		4859	`Correctly detect missing compiler directories`

		4953	`Minor changes:`
		4954	`* Reverted changes made in JATS_2.68.1 to the library search path`
		4955	`Although the search order is broken, we will need to live with it.`
		4956

		4958	`AddLibDir option (--System) to add system paths. These will be searched`
		4959	`last.`
		4960
		4961	`For the record, the search order for header files and libraries is:`
		4962
		4963	`1) As specified with AddIncDir/AddLibDir in the local makefile.pl`
		4964	`or within any such directive with the --Local option`
		4965
		4966	`2) Within the components 'local' directories. These are populated with`
		4967	`InstallHdr and InstallLib directives.`
		4968
		4969	`3) Within the 'interface' directory as populated by BuildPkgArchive`

		4971	`4) As specified with AddIncDir/AddLibDir in the 'global' makefile.pl`
		4972	`or within any such directive with the --Global option`
		4973
		4974	`5) Within packages specified by a LinkPkgArchive directive`

		4986	`Major changes:`
		4987
		4988	`Minor changes:`
		4989	`* Solaris Toolset`
		4990	`Corrected library search order, such that /usr/lib is search after the`
		4991	`dependent packages.`
		4992
		4993	`* RunTest operation`
		4994	`Added the current directory '.' to the PATH used when the test is run.`

		4999	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5000	`Version: JATS_2.68.0 Released: 20-Aug-07`
		5001	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5002	`Major changes:`
		5003	`* Trap use of uncontrolled versions of 'ant' and the Java Compiler (javac)`
		5004
		5005	`It was discovered that a few old makefile.pl's where invoking ant and`
		5006	`javac directly in order to build small Java components. This was`
		5007	`normally being done in the guise of the WIN32 target. These packages`
		5008	`were making assumptions about the version of Java on the users search`
		5009	`path.`
		5010
		5011	`JATS can invoke ANT and build Java based components using the MakeAnt`
		5012	`directive and the JAVA platform. This method is controlled and`
		5013	`reproducible.`
		5014
		5015	`This release provides changes such that these packages will not build.`
		5016	`This is better than building incorrectly.`
		5017
		5018	`There are several aspects to the change`
		5019	`1) JATS provides binaries (ant and javac) with an error message. If`
		5020	`the user invoked ant/javac in a manner that involves searching the`
		5021	`PATH then these will be used and report an error.`
		5022
		5023	`2) A special command (jats abt) can be used to start up the Auto Build`
		5024	`Tool in a manner that does not alter the PATH seen by the utilities.`
		5025	`Moreover it does not alter the JAVA_HOME seen by the build. This is`
		5026	`controlled separately.`
		5027
		5028	`Minor changes:`
		5029	`* Sanitize the PATH environment variable`
		5030	`Ensure the JATS bin directory is the first directory searched`
		5031	`Remove duplicates`
		5032	`Place non-existent components at the end of the PATH`
		5033
		5034	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5035	`Version: JATS_2.67.1 Released: 17-Aug-07`
		5036	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5037	`Major changes:`
		5038
		5039	`Minor changes:`
		5040	`* Makefile sanity test`
		5041	`Added a test to ensure that makefiles created on a machine of one type are`
		5042	`not then run on a machine of a different type.`
		5043
		5044	`This will prevent files created on solaris-sparc being used on a solaris-`
		5045	`x86 machine.`
		5046
		5047	`* Correct bug in RunTest`
		5048	`RunTest now extends the PATH to include the local bin directory`
		5049
		5050	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5051	`Version: JATS_2.67.0 Released: 13-Aug-07`
		5052	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5053	`Major changes:`
		5054	`* RunTest directive`
		5055	`Added support for running tests within the NUNIT test framework for the`
		5056	`CSHARP target. In the process a generalized mechanism for accessing`
		5057	`toolset specific test frameworks has been added.`
		5058
		5059	`Changes to the directive to support a FrameWork.`
		5060	`The use of a test FrameWork is signaled with the option`
		5061	`--FrameWork=<name> If this is present then the raw name of the program`
		5062	`under test will be passed to the framework. program.`
		5063
		5064	`If a FrameWork is in use, then JATS will invoke the specified framework`
		5065	`builder within the current toolset.`
		5066
		5067	`When a framework is in place JATS will pass arguments of the form:`
		5068	`'--Tag=Text' to the FrameWork. Other options are processed as normal.`
		5069
		5070	`With in the Nunit FrameWork the program under test will be a DLL Nunit`
		5071	`will only operate on a DLL. The DLL must have been created by the makefile`
		5072	`containing the RunTest directive.`
		5073
		5074	`The Nunit Framework supports the following options:`
		5075	`--Uses=<Name>[,SubOption]+`
		5076
		5077	`This option specifies other DLLs that are used by the TestDLL. They will`
		5078	`be copied in to the test directory, and may be sourced from an external`
		5079	`package or the components 'local' lib directory.`
		5080
		5081	`SubOptions available to The --Uses directive are:`
		5082	`--NonJats This is not a JATS built library. It will not have a`
		5083	`P or D suffix.`
		5084	`--Jats (Default) This is a JATS built library. JATS will`
		5085	`select the correct library type for this build.`
		5086
		5087	`Minor changes:`
		5088	`* New Cache cleanup mechanism`
		5089	`When a package is consumed from the 'cache' a flag is updated within`
		5090	`the cache. The cache aging routines use this file in preference to`
		5091	`the descpkg file, thus it will prevent the aging of packages that are`
		5092	`frequently used. The aging policy can be made more aggressive.`
		5093
		5094	`* Save Build Utility`
		5095	`This utility is used by the Auto Build System to save the 'build.pl' file`
		5096	`used in a ripple build.`
		5097
		5098	`The utility has been enhanced to detect a reserved checkout of the`
		5099	`build.pl. The checkout will be changed to unreserved - if possible.`
		5100
		5101	`* Release Utility`
		5102	`The 'jats release' command will now unlock any labels that it locked`
		5103	`when an error is encountered.`
		5104
		5105	`This simplifies the 'release' process as the developers label will be`
		5106	`unlocked if a build error occurs.`
		5107
		5108	`* Jats caching local copy of itself`
		5109	`Fixed a bug which resulted in an "Use of individualized value" message`
		5110	`being displayed a large number of times during the file transfer process.`
		5111
		5112	`* Minor extension to allow plug-in directives to perform a processing step`
		5113	`before the makefiles are created.`
		5114
		5115	`* TestProg directive`
		5116	`TestProg's are now built in exactly the same manner as Progs`
		5117
		5118	`* Correct problem introduced in 2.66.1 with packaging of files with`
		5119	`a 'space' or '$' in the file name.`
		5120

		5123	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5124	`Major changes:`
		5125	`* New build target`
		5126	`LINUX_ETX - Support for Linux on an ETX board`
		5127	`LMOS_LINUX_ETX - Support for LMOS on the LINUX_ETX target`

		5136
		5137	`Minor changes:`
		5138	`* Added utility class to provide directory searching`
		5139	`To be used in JATS and JATS support tools`

		5142	`Correct problem with filename that start with "n" as in .\not_nice.cs`
		5143
		5144	`Create resource files with Fully Qualified Names derived from the .resx`
		5145	`and .cs files.`
		5146
		5147	`Handle Strong Key Names and creates wrappers to provide do the right`
		5148	`thing.`
		5149
		5150	`* Microtec ColdFire compiler`
		5151	`Further attempts to get the compiler to place all of its temp files in a`
		5152	`local directory. The compiler uses a large number of EnVars to control`
		5153	`were it places temp files.`
		5154
		5155	`Underlying problem is random compiler failures on big builds. Suspected`
		5156	`interaction with other builds.`
		5157
		5158	`* Release utility command`
		5159	`Added a -tag=name option to allow the Auto Build Tools to create`
		5160	`multiple instances of a static view. The tag is used to provide a unique`
		5161	`component in the clearcase tag name.`

		5250	`Major changes:`
		5251	`* Provided a mechanism by which JATS makefile.pl directives can be extended`

		5253	`the dependancy on JATS of various packaging processes.`
		5254
		5255	`* GenerateFiles`
		5256	`Added the options:`
		5257	`--UnknownPreq - Will force the recipe to be run every time`

		5261
		5262	`--AutoGenerate - Will not force the recipe to be run during the`

		5385	`Example file now provides a default GBE_DPKG definition that assumes that`
		5386	`the "V" drive is mapped to \\auperaunx26\devl. This allows access to both`
		5387	`the dpkg_acrhive and the deploy_archive with the one mapping.`
		5388
		5389	`* jats label`
		5390	`Correct problem when locking a label in a specified VOB`
		5391
		5392	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5393	`Version: JATS_2.64.0 Released: 16-Apr-07`
		5394	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5395	`Major changes:`
		5396	`* New build platform:`
		5397	`LMOS_TP5600`
		5398	`LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI`
		5399	`LMOS_TP5600_EMU`
		5400
		5401	`LMOS_TP5600 is a tag that will be expanded to the entire family of LMOS_TP5600`
		5402	`supported targets. A common alias of LMOS_T5600 will be created to`
		5403	`describe the group of platforms.`
		5404
		5405	`LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI and LMOS_TP5600_EMU`
		5406	`These are LMOS based targets. The 'lmos' package must be used in order to`
		5407	`build these targets.`
		5408
		5409	`The LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI can use components from the TP5600_ARM9TDMI,`
		5410	`where no LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI components are provided.`
		5411
		5412	`The LMOS_TP5600_EMU can use components from the TP5600_EMU,`
		5413	`where no LMOS_TP5600_EMU components are provided.`
		5414
		5415	`* New build platform: WINCE`
		5416	`This is a tag that will be expanded to all the known WINCE targets.`
		5417	`Use of this platform will simplify the creation of components for`
		5418	`consumption on all WINCE machines.`
		5419
		5420	`The current list of WINCE targets is:`
		5421	`WCEIT3000`
		5422	`WCEPA961`
		5423	`WCEPA962`
		5424	`WCEPCM7220`
		5425	`WCEPSION_420`
		5426	`WCEPSPC_arm`
		5427	`WCEPSPC_emu`
		5428	`WCEX86A420`
		5429	`WCEX86A500`
		5430	`WCEX86A500_SOM4455`
		5431
		5432	`The WINCE targets actually built will be affected by GBE_BUILDFILTER.`
		5433
		5434	`* JATS makefile.pl`
		5435	`The package descriptor file, 'descpkg', will be packaged in all makefiles`
		5436	`that contain packaging directives.`
		5437
		5438	`There is now no need to explicitly package the 'descpkg' file, except in`
		5439	`very unusual configurations.`
		5440
		5441	`Minor changes:`
		5442	`* Directive: PackageFile`
		5443	`Generate a warning if the source file name does not confirm to good naming`
		5444	`conventions. The filename must not start with a '-' and must not contain`
		5445	`an '='.`
		5446
		5447	`Normally the result of an error in the directive. ie: "-Subdir=etc", instead`
		5448	`of "--Subdir=etc".`
		5449
		5450	`* JATS Internal utility: cmdfile`
		5451	`Updated Linux and Solaris targets with a version of the cmdfile that`
		5452	`provides a better error message for libraries that cannot be found.`
		5453
		5454	`This version will display the library search path with one item per line,`
		5455	`rather than all items on one, very long, line.`
		5456
		5457	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5458	`Version: JATS_2.63.0 Released: 5-Apr-07`
		5459	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5460	`Major changes:`
		5461
		5462	`* JATS release command`
		5463	`Modified the configuration spec generated when a branching rule is`
		5464	`specified. The change will ensure that directories are not branched.`
		5465
		5466	`Rules are:`
		5467	`Modify a file: File will branch`
		5468	`Adding a file: Containing directory will not branch`
		5469	`File will be placed on a branch`
		5470	`Add a directory: Containing directory will not branch`
		5471	`New directory will branch`
		5472
		5473	`Minor changes:`
		5474	`* JATS release command`
		5475	`Added -noprefex option to allow the creation of a view directory without the`
		5476	`user name being prefixed to it. This is useful in creating an escrow view.`
		5477
		5478	`* JATS label command`
		5479	`Detect and report parent directories that are checkedout when a label`
		5480	`is applied. Previously these had gone unreported.`
		5481
		5482	`* JATS make`
		5483	`Undo previous change to preserve symbolic links while Packaging and`
		5484	`Installing files. A problem was encountered when a file from a package`
		5485	`was re-packaged.`
		5486
		5487	`* JATS escrow`
		5488	`Added a tool to generate information for creating an escrow drop.`
		5489	`Use jats escrow -help for details`
		5490
		5491	`* makefile.pl directive: MakeAnt`
		5492	`This directive will create parameters to specify the location of external java`
		5493	`packages that have been referenced via a LinkPkgArchive directive.`
		5494
		5495	`This allows the build.xml to contruct a CLASSPATH to access JAR files in`
		5496	`packages, without the overhead of copying the entire package into the`
		5497	`interface directory.`
		5498
		5499	`* build.pl directive: BuildPkgArchive`
		5500	`Modified the processing of 'jar' directories.`
		5501	`Directories of the form 'jar.<target>' will be transferred into the 'jar'`
		5502	`directory as seen by the package.`
		5503
		5504	`Intended use: Deployment of oraclient for Solaris 10`
		5505
		5506	`* JAVA 6`
		5507	`JATS now supports all versions of Java through the use of JAVA_HOME_X_Y`
		5508	`environment variables. Where X andY specify the version of JAVA.`
		5509
		5510	`The jats.bat and jats.sh example files only provide indication of 1.4, 1.5`
		5511	`and 1.6 support, but all versions are now supported.`
		5512
		5513	`The "jats vars -v" command will display all JAVA_HOME environment variables`
		5514
		5515	`* Jats command: vars`
		5516	`Extended to show a "*" for EnvVars that do not address a valid directory`
		5517	`These indicate potential problems.`
		5518
		5519	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5520	`Version: JATS_2.62.4 Released: 20-Mar-07`
		5521	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5522	`Major changes:`
		5523	`* JATS create_dpkg + packageing shared libraries (Unix)`
		5524	`When a shared library is created a simple symbolic link to the versioned`
		5525	`libarry is also created.`
		5526
		5527	`Previous versions of JATS would replace the symbolic link with a physical`
		5528	`copy of the file. The effect of this is that when the shared libaries is`
		5529	`'Installed', 'Packaged' and transferred into dpkg_archive there are two`
		5530	`files, instead of one file and one link to the file (in the same directory)`
		5531	`The Solaris shared libraries can be quite large, due to the debug`
		5532	`information contained within the file.`
		5533
		5534	`This version of JATS will preserve symbolic links when 'Installing',`
		5535	`'Packaging' and transferring to dpkg_archive.`
		5536
		5537	`The advantage of this will be significant reduction in disk space used`
		5538	`within the build environment and dpkg_archive.`
		5539
		5540	`* Building Perl Modules`
		5541	`Modified the process to prevent the module builder attempting to modify the`
		5542	`documentation on the build machine.`
		5543
		5544	`Integrated the 'jats clean' operation.`
		5545
		5546	`Minor changes:`
		5547	`* jats create_dpkg`
		5548	`Added an option to create a built.generic file`
		5549	`This is only used by the Automated Built Tools.`
		5550
		5551	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5552	`Version: JATS_2.62.3 Released: 28-Feb-07`
		5553	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5554	`Major changes:`
		5555	`* JATS JAVA build target`
		5556	`The default behaviour of the JAVA build target has changed such that the`
		5557	`default version of JAVA used will be 1.4.`
		5558
		5559	`Previous behaviour was to use whichever version was specified by the EnvVar`
		5560	`JAVA_HOME. This was not controlled, thus the build was not controlled.`
		5561	`Problems occur when using the new AutoBuildTool as it uses Java 1.5 and this`
		5562	`is then picked up as the default version.`
		5563
		5564	`If a version, other than 1.4, is required then specify it within the`
		5565	`build.pl file.`
		5566
		5567	`Minor changes:`
		5568	`* jats release`
		5569	`Ensure that the 'cleartool' command can be found in the users PATH`
		5570	`Issue an error if it cannot be found.`
		5571	`This error indicates bad DevEnv setup`
		5572
		5573	`Added facility to create a view based on a config_spec, instead of a label.`
		5574	`Such a view cannot be used to create a release. It is intended to simplify`
		5575	`the creation of simple static views. The name of view is, by default,`
		5576	`based on the name of the config spec. Use the -view=name option to change`
		5577	`the name of the view.`
		5578
		5579	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		5580	`Added new --Vars() to allow packaging of JATS plugin tools.`
		5581
		5582	`* MOS Toolset`
		5583	`When using MOS fast intermodule calls the optimizer will preload commonly`
		5584	`used memory addresses into a register BEFORE the GDP has been correctly set`
		5585	`up. Use the following option to suppress this optimization`
		5586
		5587	`Added: CompileOptions ('*', 'NoGlobalOptimization' );`
		5588
		5589
		5590	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5591	`Version: JATS_2.62.2 Released: 15-Feb-07`
		5592	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5593	`Major changes:`
		5594
		5595	`Minor changes:`
		5596	`* JATS environment`
		5597	`Ensure that the true path of the Perl executable is present in the PATH`
		5598	`environment variable. This allows build tool access to various perl utilities`
		5599	`that are located in the Perl bin directory.`
		5600
		5601	`Resolves issues in locating utilities such as pod2html`
		5602
		5603	`* Use of GENERIC platforms`
		5604	`Report an error if a GENERIC platform is mixed with any other platform`
		5605	`specifier. GENERIC is used for packages that build on all machines because`
		5606	`they do not use a compiler or linker. They simply contains files that need`
		5607	`to be packaged.`
		5608
		5609	`* Generated makefiles`
		5610	`Solaris and Linux: Ensure that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is exported if it is used.`
		5611
		5612	`* Generating MOS THX files`
		5613	`Added option --BinaryImage to the SharedLib directive used to create MOS THX`
		5614	`files. This option will create a binary image (.bin) instead of a .thx file.`
		5615	`This is being used in the creation of BR Applets.`
		5616
		5617	`SharedLib ( 'MOS', "xxx", @OBJS, "--Rel=xxx.rel", "--BinaryImage" );`
		5618
		5619	`* JATS release`
		5620	`Correct the operation of the -path option under Unix`
		5621
		5622	`* JATS extract`
		5623	`New JATS command. This is the same as 'jats release -extract'`
		5624
		5625	`* JATS Toolset`
		5626	`Added support for the WinCe PSION (WCEPSION_420)`
		5627	`This is a armv4i device using 4.20 of the WCE SDK`
		5628
		5629
		5630	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5631	`Version: JATS_2.62.1 Released: 18-Jan-07`
		5632	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5633	`Major changes:`
		5634
		5635	`Minor changes:`
		5636	`* jats label`
		5637	`Added a -vob=name option`
		5638	`This allwos the label utility to create, lock, unlock, rename and delete`
		5639	`labels without the user actually being located within the VOB. This option`
		5640	`cannot be used in conjunction with operations that place labels on files.`
		5641	`It can only be used for operations that manipulate the label.`
		5642
		5643	`Added a -user=name option`
		5644	`This extends the operation of the -mine operation to change ownership of the`
		5645	`label to the named user.`
		5646
		5647	`* jats release`
		5648	`Displays the path to the view and the build file in a user friendly manner`
		5649	`Under Windows it uses \, unless running under cygwin.`
		5650
		5651	`* JATS build.pl`
		5652	`BuildProduct supports the --Uses=xxxx construct on a per-target basis.`
		5653	`ie:`
		5654	`BuildProduct ('TP5', 'LMOS_TP5600_EMU', 'LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI,--Uses=TP5600_ARM9TDMI');`
		5655
		5656
		5657	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5658	`Version: JATS_2.62.0 Released: 22-Dec-06`
		5659	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5660	`Major changes:`
		5661	`* GenerateFiles and RunTest directives`
		5662	`These directives have been extended to allow a large number of makefile`
		5663	`values to be added to the command lines,without resorting to knowledge of`
		5664	`the makefile internals. ie:`
		5665	`--Var(BuildName)`
		5666	`will be expanded to (hen building MyPackage)`
		5667	`-BuildName=MyPackage`
		5668
		5669	`The complete list of Variables is provided in the JATS manual.`
		5670
		5671	`* GenerateFiles`
		5672	`Added a --Clean option to allow tools to be invoked in the 'clean' phase`
		5673	`This allows external scripts to cleanup.`
		5674
		5675	`* BuildPlatforms`
		5676	`Restored operation of the --Uses option`
		5677
		5678	`Minor changes:`
		5679	`* GCC Toolset`
		5680	`Exports path to compiler. Used by scripts to build packages`
		5681
		5682	`Internal changes:`
		5683	`* GenerateFiles`
		5684	`Maintains the arguments in an array for simpler processing.`
		5685
		5686	`--Shell is now processed by the 'make' shell rather then invoking an`
		5687	`external shell. It will be the same shell, just easier to setup.`
		5688
		5689
		5690	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5691	`Version: JATS_2.61.3 Released: 14-Dec-06`
		5692	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5693	`Major changes:`
		5694	`* Caching JATS`
		5695	`Added a mechanism whereby JATS can cache a copy of itself on the users local`
		5696	`drive. This is applicable to windows.`
		5697
		5698	`This mechanism will allow a user to address JATS via the soft-links in`
		5699	`dpkg_archive and pick up the current version of JATS without the penalty of`
		5700	`then using JATS across a slow(network) link.`
		5701
		5702	`The EnvVar GBE_CACHE_JATS controls the operation of this feature.`
		5703	`Set GBE_CACHE_JATS to one to enable the operation, but it will only be`
		5704	`effective if JATS is being run from GBE_DPKG in the first place.`
		5705
		5706	`Use: Build Machines and Windows Users`
		5707
		5708	`Minor changes:`
		5709	`* Build directive: BuildAlias with --Target option`
		5710	`Corrected a problem when the target name is a expanded platform name (ie:`
		5711	`TP5600) that prevent correct expansion.`
		5712
		5713	`* jats build`
		5714	`If the user has not configured a cache, then do not attempt to cache`
		5715	`packages. This will remove an annoying warning message for each package`
		5716	`processed by the build.`
		5717
		5718	`* jats build`
		5719	`Modified the error messages generated when JATS fails to create the`
		5720	`makefiles. The previous system would report failures while creating`
		5721	`makefiles and, at the end of the process, it would generate a large error`
		5722	`message to indicate the failure. This large message diverted the users`
		5723	`from reading the other error messages resulting in confusion.`
		5724
		5725	`* PackageFile, PackageLib, PackageProg and PackageHdr`
		5726	`Detect and report as an error use of the --Dir=<Path> option where the`
		5727	`Path is not specified.`
		5728
		5729	`Most instances of this error will be where the option has been mis-used in`
		5730	`conjunction with a package.pl file, or during transition from using a`
		5731	`package.pl file. That change is detects errors where the user has specified`
		5732	`--Dir=$Pinc`
		5733	`but $Pinc is not defined.`
		5734
		5735	`* Purify and Purecov under Windows`
		5736	`Changes to correct the operation of Rational's tools when used on the`
		5737	`Windows platform.`
		5738
		5739	`- OPTIONS=purecov`
		5740	`Forces the link operations to generate the relocation table required`
		5741	`by 'purecov.`
		5742
		5743	`Does not attempt to use purecov in the compiler tool chain`
		5744	`This is required under Solaris, but not Windows`
		5745
		5746	`- OPTIONS=purify`
		5747	`Does not attempt to use purecov in the compiler tool chain`
		5748	`This is required under Solaris, but not Windows.`
		5749	`Under WIndows this option does nothing.`
		5750

		5755	`Major changes:`
		5756	`* makefile.pl directive Platform`
		5757	`This directive has been expanded to allow for the negation operation`
		5758	`Example:`
		5759	`Platform ('!MOSCF');`
		5760	`Process makefile for all targets other than MOSCF`
		5761	`This is the same as Platform ('*', '!MOSCF');`
		5762
		5763	`Excluded platform will be processed after included platforms have`
		5764	`been determined.`
		5765
		5766	`Minor changes:`
		5767	`* Added the ScanList directive.`
		5768	`This directive allows a list of files within an external package to be`
		5769	`located at build-time.`
		5770
		5771	`* Unix based systems`
		5772	`If the EnvVar LD_LIBRARY_PATH was undefined, then a warning would be`
		5773	`generated by make under some conditions. The warning has been removed.`
		5774
		5775	`* MakeLinuxDriver`
		5776	`Added a --Define=text option to allow "defines" to be passed to the`
		5777	`driver being built.`

		5808
		5809	`GenerateFiles.`
		5810	`Added option: --NoGenerate to indicate that the directive does`

		5879	`similar, but more pronounced, issue.`
		5880
		5881	`* Atmel toolset (DEVI-031788)`
		5882	`New Products: AT90SC7272C and AT90SC3232CS`

		5977
		5978	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5979	`Version: JATS_2.56.2 Released: 28-Aug-06`
		5980	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5981	`Major changes:`
		5982
		5983	`Minor changes:`
		5984	`* WIN32 and WINCE toolsets`
		5985	`SharedLib operation. Added an option to allow the creation of a 'stub'`
		5986	`library without creating the body of the library:`

		6017	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6018	`Version: JATS_2.56.0 Released: 18-Aug-06`

		6020	`Major changes:`
		6021	`* Support for SOLARIS10_sparc32 and SOLARIS10_sparc64`
		6022	`Initial release.`
		6023
		6024	`* Packaging directives`
		6025	`Added option --OsCommon to allow files and header files to be packed into`
		6026	`a directory known to all platforms being built for a common OS.`
		6027
		6028	`Currently this is only supported to target platforms based on`
		6029	`SOLARIS`
		6030	`WIN32`
		6031
		6032	`* Removal of support for badly formed packages`
		6033	`As of this release libraries that exist in the <packagename>/lib directory`
		6034	`will not be available to JATS. These libraries are in the incorrect`
		6035	`directory. They MUST be in a directory that indicates the intended purpose`
		6036	`of the library. A .so library cannot be used on all machines ( linux,`
		6037	`solaris-sparc, solaris-amd ... ).`
		6038
		6039	`* Build Platform target name expansion facility`
		6040	`The build targets of SOLARIS and LINUX are seen as expandable names. They`
		6041	`will be expanded to suitable targets - depending on the host machine .`
		6042
		6043
		6044	`Minor changes:`
		6045	`* Utility: JATS LABEL`
		6046	`Ensure that the 'cleartool' utility can be found in the users path.`
		6047	`Generate a suitable error message if it cannot be found.`
		6048
		6049	`* Utility: JATS RELEASE`
		6050	`Added a -root=dirname to allow the user to place the created view at a given`
		6051	`location`
		6052
		6053	`Added GBE_VIEWBASE to provide a globally configured mechanism for`
		6054	`controlling the view location. Performs the same job as -root=xxxx`
		6055
		6056	`* Utility genrc`
		6057	`Added the company name to the copyright string`
		6058
		6059	`* Utility: jats_save_build`
		6060	`Added option: -new`
		6061	`This option forces the saved file only a new branch.`
		6062	`The option can be used to save a build.pl file onto a new project-specific`
		6063	`branch. Useful when branching an entire release.`
		6064
		6065	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6066	`Added options to allow project suffixes to be replaced.`
		6067	`Use: Convert a .syd project to a .bej project.`
		6068
		6069	`* Deprecated features: package.pl and tree.dir`
		6070	`These two build features are being deprecated. They are not suitable for`
		6071	`migration to other SOLARIS based platforms.`
		6072
		6073	`The Package directives provide sufficient power to replace the package.pl`
		6074	`features - in a uniform manner.`
		6075
		6076
		6077	`Internal Changes:`
		6078	`* Major rework of the JATS BuildPlatform, BuildAlias an BuildProducts`
		6079	`directives, together with the mechanism used to describe the platform builds.`
		6080
		6081	`Introduced a CFG/<PLATFORM>.CFG file to provide:`
		6082	`1) Platform information available at build time`
		6083	`2) Dynamic platform names`
		6084
		6085	`* Major rework of the 'SOLARIS' platform`
		6086	`The SOLARIS platform will generate one or more targets, depending on the`
		6087	`machine on which the platform is invoked.`
		6088
		6089	`Consolidated a number of SOLARIS specific kludges and converted them into`
		6090	`configurable items. These kludges are really on applicable to the`
		6091	`SOLARIS8_SPARC32 platform. New SOLARIS builds will be well formed.`
		6092
		6093	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6094	`Formalized a number of kludges in operation of the SOLARIS8 under sparc32`
		6095	`platform. These are configured early in the build process and are no longer`
		6096	`needed.`
		6097
		6098	`A side effect of this work is that files from external packages may be`
		6099	`located in 'SOLARIS', 'SOLARIS_sparc' or 'sparc' directories. The change`
		6100	`should be transparent as the consumer tools should be able to handle`
		6101	`files from all of these.`

		6103	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6104	`Version: JATS_2.55.1 Released: 17-Aug-06`

		6113	`Version: JATS_2.55.0 Released: 3-Aug-06`
		6114	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6115	`Major changes:`
		6116	`* Jats wrapper: Specify version of JATS to be used`
		6117	`Added a -version=xxxx option to force JATS to use a specific version of`
		6118	`JATS. The same operation can be achieved by setting GBE_JATS_VERSION.`
		6119
		6120	`The required version MUST be found in one of the known archives.`
		6121
		6122	`JATS will attempt to cache the version of JATS to assist in speeding up`
		6123	`the operations.`
		6124
		6125	`The version option MUST be the first option.`
		6126
		6127	`The version option MUST be followed by a '--' option.`
		6128	`This prevents JATS parsing other options and recursion issues.`
		6129
		6130	`Example: jats -version=2.54.3.cr -- build`
		6131
		6132	`* Migrated the "jats install" functionality out of the jats wrapper script`
		6133	`and into the create_dpkg utility. This is transparent to the user.`
		6134
		6135	`* Utility: create_dpkg`
		6136	`Added a '-quiet' option to allow use within scripts`
		6137	`Extended the built-in help`
		6138	`Added useful error messages`
		6139	`Migrate code to a common error reporting mechanism`
		6140
		6141	`* WinCE toolset`
		6142	`Added support for the WCEPA962 target.`
		6143
		6144	`* M16 toolset as used in building MCRFirmware`
		6145	`Added a --MotOnly option to the Prog directives. MOT files`
		6146	`are used in the creation of bootstraps.`
		6147
		6148	`Minor changes:`
		6149	`* JATS wrapper script`
		6150	`Added a -ABT=xxx option to allow the Auto Build Tool to be invoked from`
		6151	`the command line.`
		6152
		6153	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6154	`Modified so that it will display changes. These will then be present in the`
		6155	`ABT log so that a developer can see which packages have been rippled.`
		6156
		6157	`Internal Changes:`
		6158	`* Common Error Reporting`
		6159	`Will use environment variables to control DEBUG and VERBOSE levels`
		6160	`for individual users. A module reporting with a name of XXXX will use EnvVars`
		6161	`of GBE_XXXX_VERBOSE and GBE_XXXX_DEBUG to control the debug and VERBOSE`
		6162	`level.`
		6163
		6164	`Force flushing after a "Question" is asked to ensure that the prompt is`
		6165	`displayed.`
		6166
		6167	`Enable autoflush for both STDOUT and STDERR.`
		6168
		6169	`* Added JatsSystem module`
		6170	`Common code for accessing system commands`
		6171	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`

		6182	`Added AT7272 support`
		6183

		6201	`Major changes:`
		6202

		6206	`builds.`
		6207
		6208	`* JATS Core`
		6209	`Added GBE_ABT. This is used by the Auto Build Tool to indicate that an`
		6210	`auto build is in progress. It may be used by various tools to modify their`
		6211	`behaviour.`
		6212
		6213	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6214	`Version: JATS_2.54.0 Released: 22-Jun-06`
		6215	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6216	`Major changes:`
		6217	`* Removal of non-core deployment functionality from JATS.`
		6218	`Deployment package will be affected.`
		6219
		6220	`The build.pl file of deployment package will need to import deployment`
		6221	`support with a BuildPkgArchive directive. ie:`
		6222
		6223	`BuildPkgArchive ( 'deployfiles', '1.0.0.cr' );`
		6224
		6225	`This version of deployfiles contains the same functionality as that provided`
		6226	`by the previous version of JATS. Version 2 of this package will be the start`
		6227	`of a deployment system that will provide support for building InstallShield`
		6228	`packages.`
		6229
		6230	`* Deployment support utilities must be run under JATS`
		6231	`The environment required for the deployment support utilities is complex`
		6232	`and is provided by the JATS wrapper script.`
		6233
		6234	`This is a change in usage. Instead of running the program 'updatenodespec'`
		6235	`the user will need to run 'jats updatenodespec'`
		6236
		6237	`Minor changes:`
		6238	`* SubDir directive`
		6239	`Added a sanity test to detect the case when a 'SubDir' directive specifies`
		6240	`a directory from two different makefiles.`
		6241
		6242	`* Tools: Dependancy generator mkdepend`
		6243	`If an include file was referenced by a symbolic name, then the generated`
		6244	`dependancy information would be wrong for all but the first occurrence`
		6245	`of the file usage.`
		6246
		6247	`* New utility: jats_manifest`
		6248	`Used by the build system to generate and validate source files.`
		6249	`Beta Release: Windows only at the moment`
		6250
		6251	`* Unit tests under SOLARIS_sparc`
		6252	`The LD_LIBRARY_PATH has been modified to correctly pick up libraries`
		6253	`generated within the build and have been installed locally.`
		6254
		6255	`* Default behaviour of JATS the wrapper script`
		6256	`This has been changed. Previous unknown commands were passed to make.`
		6257	`In this release unknown comamnds will be treated a 'etool' commands and`
		6258	`will execute a JATS extended command.`
		6259
		6260
		6261	`Internal Changes:`
		6262	`* Code refactor`
		6263	`Created JatsEnv to encapsulate functionality that was multiply defined.`
		6264
		6265	`* Deployment utilities`
		6266	`The Perl module Ignorelist.pm and the .ccignore file`
		6267	`Changed the mechanism by which this module locates a .ccignore file.`
		6268	`The .ccignore file has been moved to the same directory as the module and`
		6269	`the module can locate the file.`
		6270
		6271	`Previously the module required an environment variable in order to locate`
		6272	`the file, which was in a fixed location anyway.`
		6273
		6274	`* JATS core`
		6275	`Removed the use of the environment variable PERLINC.`
		6276
		6277	`Better parsing of descpkg files.`
		6278
		6279	`* JATS core debugging: JatsError.pm`
		6280	`Allow control over the debug and verbose messages of specific programs`
		6281	`through the use of environment variables.`
		6282
		6283	`A program reporting errors as "name" can be controlled via environment`
		6284	`variables GBE_name_VERBOSE and GBE_name_DEBUG.`
		6285
		6286	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6287	`Modified the subdirectories transferred with this directive to include:`
		6288	`deployfiles - as used by the deployment system`
		6289	`tools/scripts - as used by perl based extensions`
		6290
		6291	`* Make environment`
		6292	`Extended the PERL5LIB path seen by perl programs executed under make to`
		6293	`include 'tools/script' directories that contain Perl Modules.`

		6311
		6312
		6313	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6314	`Version: JATS_2.53.0 Released: 11-Apr-06`
		6315	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6316	`Major changes:`
		6317	`* Deployment Scripts: Release Manager Database Access`
		6318	`The mechanism for communicating with the Release Manager Database has been`
		6319	`radically replaced.`
		6320
		6321	`A test tool has been added to prove connectivity to Release Manager.`
		6322	`Usage:`
		6323	`jats etool test_rmconnection`
		6324
		6325	`The pervious scripts used DBI::ODBC to communicate with the Oracle`
		6326	`Database that contains Release Manager. There were a number of problems with`
		6327	`this solution:`
		6328	`- Required the installation of two Perl Modules`
		6329	`- Required the installation of an Oracle client`
		6330	`- Required the use of an ODBC bridge machine when used on Solaris`
		6331	`- Support for Perl within Oracle appears to be on the decline`
		6332
		6333	`The solutions uses a Java application and Java's jdbc. The oracle:thin`
		6334	`client is used as this does not require any installation or configuration in`
		6335	`order to work.`
		6336
		6337	`JATS overrides Perl's DBI package with a package of the same name, but`
		6338	`reduced functionality.`
		6339
		6340
		6341	`Minor changes:`
		6342	`* makefile.pl directive: SetValue`
		6343	`Added a '--' option to disable and enable parsing of options.`
		6344	`This allows a value with leading '--' to be set.`
		6345
		6346	`* makefile.pl directive: SetList`
		6347	`Added this directive to formalise the creation and processing of lists`
		6348	`within the makefiles.`
		6349	`Options:`
		6350	`--NoWarn Disable name clash warnings`
		6351	`--Project=xxxx[,xxxx]+ Add to list in selected projects`
		6352	`--Unique Add only if not already present`
		6353	`--Clear Clear list, before adding new items`
		6354	`--Append Append items to list (default)`
		6355	`-- Disable/Enable option parsing`
		6356	`Useage:`
		6357
		6358	`SetList ('*', 'LibList', 'lib1', 'lib2', '--Project=syd');`
		6359	`SharedLib ('*', 'MyDLL', @OBJS, @LibList );`
		6360
		6361	`* Makefile.pl directive: RunTest`
		6362	`Corrected the option of the --CopyIn=file option where the specified file`
		6363	`is not in the current directory.`
		6364
		6365	`* Jats Command: ant'`
		6366	`This command has been extended to make use of the -buildfile=xxxx option`
		6367	`to allow multiple buildfiles to be differentiated.`
		6368
		6369	`eg: jats -buildfile=MyPackage ant`
		6370
		6371	`* TOOLSET: DAFBR Compiler support`
		6372	`Modified the toolset to support an optimisation feature of the next`
		6373	`generation of the daf_br_compiler. These will be enabled if the major version`
		6374	`of the package containing the compiler is greater the "1". ie: 2.0.0.cr`
		6375
		6376	`* Interface helper files: set_XXXX.bat/.sh`
		6377	`Added provision to process user command arguments.`
		6378	`Thus`
		6379
		6380	`set_WIN32.bat prog`
		6381
		6382	`will set the WIN32 environment and run the command: prog`
		6383
		6384
		6385	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6386	`Version: JATS_2.52.2 Released: 30-Mar-06`
		6387	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6388	`Major changes:`
		6389
		6390	`Minor changes:`
		6391	`* Addressed issue with BUILDNAME, an internal variable.`
		6392	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user build.pl's they need to be`
		6393	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a project`
		6394	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		6395	`$(BUILDNAME) contains two or three space seperated fields - always`
		6396
		6397	`* m16c Toolset - MCRFirmware`
		6398	`Force the generation of .thx and payload files when the .bin files are`
		6399	`created. Previously this only occured in the packaging phase.`
		6400
		6401	`Internal changes:`
		6402	`* JATS toolsets`
		6403	`Added a feature to allow a toolset to flag additional files that get created`
		6404	`as a part of a "Prog". This allows a "Prog" definition to generate a`
		6405	`number of files, some which may be packaged.`
		6406
		6407	`Previously such files where only generated during the packaging phase. Now`
		6408	`they will be generated during the make_prog phase - with the other programs.`
		6409
		6410	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6411	`Version: JATS_2.52.1 Released: 29-Mar-06`
		6412	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6413	`Major changes:`
		6414	`* Jats command: etool`
		6415	`Extended to allow execution of deployment tools. This allows the deployment`
		6416	`tools to use the JATS core perl modules.`
		6417
		6418	`* Address issues with the use of BUILDVER and ScmBuildVer`
		6419	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user makefile.pl's they need to be`
		6420	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a projectt`
		6421	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		6422	`$(BUILDVERSION) contains the project extension - always`
		6423	`$ScmBuildVersion does not contain a project extension - always`
		6424
		6425	`Minor changes:`
		6426
		6427
		6428	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6429	`Version: JATS_2.52.0 Released: 27-Mar-06`
		6430	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6431	`Major changes:`
		6432	`* JATS environment variables`
		6433	`Added GBE_DPKG_STORE`
		6434	`Optionally addresses a dpkg_archive store. This is intended to allow`
		6435	`read only access to a remote repository. The GBE_DPKG_STORE will be`
		6436	`searched after GBE_DPKG. It will be searched last. JATS, be default,`
		6437	`will not publish packages in this repository.`
		6438
		6439	`Uses: Seed repository for a complete build`
		6440	`Remote repository`
		6441
		6442	`Added GBE_DPLY`
		6443	`Optionally addresses a Deployment Archive. This is only used in the`
		6444	`placement of deployment packages. This value may be project specific.`
		6445
		6446	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		6447	`Changes the mechanism used to link against the compiler RTL.`
		6448	`Previously the RTL was included multiple times in the link order. This`
		6449	`created problem with daf_dsi as the function 'time()' was being satisfied by`
		6450	`the RTL before being satisfied by the user libraries.`
		6451
		6452	`The compiler RTL is now treated as a library of last resort. It will be`
		6453	`processed once and it will be processed last.`
		6454
		6455
		6456	`Minor changes:`
		6457	`* JATS utility: build`
		6458	`* JATS utility: cache_dpkg`
		6459	`Extended the package search algorithm to locate a package within`
		6460	`GBE_DPKG_STORE. This archive will be searched last.`
		6461
		6462	`* JATS utility: gen_cots`
		6463	`Ensure label is not locked`
		6464	`Add option to allow user to specify source directory other than a package`
		6465	`that already exists in dpkg_archive.`
		6466
		6467	`* JATS directive: PackageFile`
		6468	`Now supports --Prod and --Debug options to limit the packaging process`
		6469	`to a specific type of build.`
		6470
		6471	`* JATS directive: GenerateFiles and RunTests`
		6472	`Added a --PackageInfo() replacement tag to allow package version information`
		6473	`to be extracted and passed to generator programs.`
		6474	`ie: --PackageInfo(sysbasetypes,syd,--fullversion)`
		6475
		6476	`Extended the --PackageBase() replacement tag to work with packages such as`
		6477	`sysbasetypes, where there is a .cr and a .syd type.`
		6478	`ie: --PackageBase(sysbasetypes,syd)`
		6479
		6480	`* JATS utility: release`
		6481	`Under windows, ensure that the directory C:\Clearcase exists. There have`
		6482	`been installations of Clearcase where this is directory does not exist.`
		6483
		6484	`* JATS utility: label`
		6485	`Added option: "-comment=Text" to allow a comment to be added to a label,`
		6486	`when it is being created.`
		6487
		6488	`Internal Changes`
		6489	`* JATS utility: create_dpkg`
		6490	`Refactored code to use JATS DescPkg class.`
		6491
		6492	`Added options to allow packaging to the various archives. This is of no use`
		6493	`to the normal developer, but will be used within the complete build system.`
		6494
		6495	`* Factored out the parsing of the BuildName directive`
		6496	`This process was being done in 3 locations - and there were getting`
		6497	`different results.`
		6498
		6499	`* ToolsetRequire directive`
		6500	`This has been extended to allow JATS to locate Toolset extensions within`
		6501	`packages. They should be placed within the tool/scripts directory`
		6502
		6503	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6504	`Version: JATS_2.51.0 Released: 15-Mar-06`
		6505	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6506	`Major changes:`
		6507
		6508	`* MCR toolset`
		6509	`Generate CD payload files in conjunction with the .BIN files`
		6510
		6511	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6512	`Version: JATS_2.50.0 Released: 15-Feb-06`
		6513	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6514	`Major changes:`
		6515	`* WIN32 utilities`
		6516	`Replaced a number of the Windows utilities ( cp, rm, mv ...)`
		6517	`with versions from the GNUWin32 project.`
		6518
		6519	`The 'cp' previously used could not recursively copy large directories`
		6520	`under Windows Server 2003, when both the source and destination are on the`
		6521	`same drive. ( dpkg_cache of ace ).`
		6522
		6523	`Minor changes:`
		6524	`* BuildVersion`
		6525	`The definition of VERSION_BUILD within the generated version-defs.h file`
		6526	`will have leading zeros removed, thus allowing it to be used within a 'C'`
		6527	`program without the number being interpreted as an octal constant.`
		6528
		6529	`The string form (VERSION_BUILD_STR) will retain the zeros.`
		6530
		6531	`* Unix Builds`
		6532	`Corrected several issues encountered when specifying the name of a static`
		6533	`library or a shared library.`
		6534
		6535	`JATS will prepend 'lib' to the user specified library name. Problems occurred`
		6536	`when the user specified a library name that started with 'lib'. Now, on Unix`
		6537	`systems, JATS will only prepend 'lib' if the library name does not already`
		6538	`start with 'lib'.`
		6539
		6540	`* BuildPkgArchive`
		6541	`Since 2.45.0 JATS will only transfer files for the BuildPkgArchive, if`
		6542	`they have not already been transferred. Added a test for the source`
		6543	`package being updated and then forceing the copy to be repeated.`
		6544
		6545	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6546	`Version: JATS_2.49.0 Released: 10-Feb-06`
		6547	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6548	`Major changes:`
		6549	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		6550	`Corrected a problem with the dependencies between a .REL file and the target`
		6551	`THX file. If the .REL files was modified the output THX file did not get`
		6552	`regenerated. This was only a problem in cases where the .REL file was`
		6553	`being manually maintained.`
		6554
		6555
		6556	`Minor changes:`
		6557	`* MakeAnt directive`
		6558	`Introduced a check to ensure that this directive is only used with a toolset`
		6559	`that can handle an 'ant' build file. Currently only the JAVA toolset`
		6560	`supports ANT builds.`
		6561
		6562	`* BuildPkgArchive directive`
		6563	`Correct problem in the caching of BuildPkgArchive packages in the case where`
		6564	`there is no GBE_DPKG_LOCAL on the machine.`
		6565
		6566	`* Label utility`
		6567	`Added a 'files=filename,filename' option to allow only specified`
		6568	`files to be labeled.`
		6569
		6570	`* Build. Parsing descpkg files`
		6571	`Corrected problem in which Java Manifest files were not parsed correctly`
		6572	`on Solaris.`
		6573
		6574	`* Generated makefiles`
		6575	`Fix a bug with the CompilerOptions that allowed a '0' definition to be set to`
		6576	`nothing.`
		6577
		6578	`* MOS Toolset`
		6579	`Added 'CompileOptions' of CcSupervisor.`
		6580	`This will set a MOS internal definition suitable for building specialised`
		6581	`modules.`
		6582
		6583	`* Utility: gen_cots`
		6584	`This utility will create a JATS buildable package froma dpkg_archive entry`
		6585	`and then check it in under clearcase.`
		6586
		6587	`JATS etool gen_cots -man will provide only help.`
		6588
		6589	`* Utilty cache_dpkg`
		6590	`Detect and repair incomplete copy operations.`

		6593	`Version: JATS_2.48.0 Released: 24-Jan-06`
		6594	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6595	`Major changes:`
		6596	`None`
		6597
		6598	`Minor changes:`
		6599	`* DEVI addressed`
		6600	`DEVI-022055 JATS builds DLLs with wrong copyright symbol in version resource`
5710	dpurdie	6601	`DEVI-022054 JATS puts "VIX Group test" in Product Name of Windows resource`
227	dpurdie	6602
		6603	`* Utility: release (cbuild)`
		6604	`Added an option to create a view configured to work with a branching`
		6605	`rule. A single branch can be named with the -branch option. eg:`
		6606
		6607	`jats release -extract 'label' -branch SITS_LEGACY_BRANCH`
		6608
		6609	`will create a view based on the named label, but suitable for creating`
		6610	`a patch for Sydney Legacy work.`
		6611
		6612	`* RunTest directive`
		6613	`The 'PATH' that the test uses is extended to allow access to programs that have`
		6614	`been installed with a InstallProg directive. This allows a test script to`
		6615	`test a program that is generated elsewhere within the package.`
		6616
		6617	`* PackageFile, Option --DirTree`
		6618	`Support for filenames that contain a "$" or a ' ' within the`
		6619	`--DirTree option. Implemented to allow entire JAVA class trees to be`
		6620	`packaged under JATS`
		6621
		6622	`Note: In general the use of a $ and space within a filename is not`
		6623	`supported within JATS.`
		6624
		6625	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		6626	`Added an eprog option. The allows any program to be run within the`
		6627	`sanitized environment provided by JATS.`
		6628
		6629	`The specified program may be in the current directory or the user's`
		6630	`PATH. If the program is a perl script then it will be run with the`
		6631	`JATS perl interpreter, otherwise it will be processed by the system.`
		6632
		6633	`Eg: jats eprog myscript arg1 arg2`
		6634	`Eg: jats ant`
		6635
		6636	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		6637	`Added an 'ant' command. ( "jats ant" )`
		6638
5710	dpurdie	6639	`This will run an VIX ANT build by scanning the current directory for a file`
227	dpurdie	6640	`called <ProjectName>depends.xml and then looking the a file called`
		6641	`<ProjectName>.xml. Jats will then create 'auto.xml' based on the`
		6642	`<ProjectName>depends.xml file and use ant to invoke the`
		6643	`<ProjectName>.xml file.`
		6644
5710	dpurdie	6645	`If the VIX build files cannot be found then ant is simply run and it will`
227	dpurdie	6646	`expect a build.pl file.`
		6647
		6648	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		6649	`Force the environment variable PERL5INC to be unset.`
		6650
		6651	`* Jats utility: create_dpkg`
		6652	`Simplify handling of ANT based projects. Look for the package within`
		6653	`the build/pkg subdirectory, in the JANTS style.`
		6654
		6655	`* Utility: gen_winrc (DEVI-022054)`
		6656	`Added a "'-product=text'" option to allow the product name to be specified.`
		6657
		6658	`* Build files`
		6659	`Handle the java generated descpkg files. These are a Manifest format with`
5710	dpurdie	6660	`VIX extensions.`
227	dpurdie	6661

		6663	`Version: JATS_2.47.0 Released: 20-Dec-05`
		6664	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6665	`Major changes:`
		6666	`* BuildVersion directive in build.pl`
		6667	`Correct a problem in the generation of version.c`
		6668	`The function GetModuleInfo() would return a string with a trailing`
		6669	`space when the 'array' mode was selected.`
		6670
		6671	`This may cause module validation to fail.`
		6672
		6673	`Minor changes:`
		6674	`* None`
		6675
		6676	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6677	`Version: JATS_2.46.0 Released: 08-Dec-05`
		6678	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6679	`Major changes:`
		6680	`* BuildProduct and BuildPlatforms directives`
		6681	`Added option --Uses=NAME`
		6682	`ie:`
		6683	`BuildProduct ( 'OBFTP,--Uses=TP5', 'MOSCF' );`
		6684
		6685	`This will create a OBFTP_MOSCF platform that will 'use' TP5`
		6686	`headers and libraries if none are specifically provided for the`
		6687	`OBFTP. It is the users responsibily to ensure that the two build`
		6688	`environments are compatible.`
		6689
		6690
		6691	`Minor changes:`
		6692	`* BuildName option`
		6693	`Modifications to allow the creation of COTS packages with buildnames`
5710	dpurdie	6694	`that do not confirm to the VIX naming scheme (--RelaxedVersion).`
227	dpurdie	6695
		6696	`* jats.bat`
		6697	`Ensure that GBE_BIN is not defined`
		6698	`It will be set by the jats.pl to a fully qualified path.`
		6699
		6700	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6701	`Version: JATS_2.45.0 Released: 29-Nov-05`
		6702	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6703	`Major changes:`
		6704	`* BuildPkgArchive directive`
		6705	`The operation of the BuildPkgArchive directive has been modified`
		6706	`so that a package will only be installed once. This significantly`
		6707	`speeds up multiple 'build' operations.`
		6708
		6709	`If the package is being extracted from the 'local archive', then`
		6710	`this mechanism is suppressed as packages in the local archive are`
		6711	`considered as under development and are subject to change.`
		6712
		6713	`If package cache is being refreshed, then the package will be`
		6714	`installed a second time. Thus it is possible to force the package to`
		6715	`be transferred into the 'interface' directory.`
		6716
		6717	`A BuildTags directory is used to track packages that have been`
		6718	`transferred.`
		6719
		6720	`* Internal changes to factor common code into a group of packages.`
		6721	`See notes below.`
		6722
		6723	`* WIN32 toolset`
		6724	`Allow the Microsoft preprocessor directive #import to operate`
		6725	`correctly.`
		6726
		6727	`Export the complete library search path into the build environment`
		6728	`for all Microsoft command, not just the linker and library commands.`
		6729
		6730	`* BuildVersion`
		6731	`Modifications to allow the generation of version files for C#`
		6732	`The mechanism has been extended to allow version information for`
		6733	`other langauges as needed.`
		6734
		6735
		6736	`Minor changes:`
		6737	`* Utility: gen_winrc.pl`
		6738	`Will extracted build number from the patch number, if present.`
		6739	`This information will be available to be placed into the generation`
		6740	`version strings.`
		6741
		6742	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		6743	`Fixed a problem detecting programs that were not in the local`
		6744	`package or an imported package.`
		6745
		6746	`* Toolsets: MOS_MRI`
		6747	`Generate an error if required tools are not found.`
		6748	`Previously this condition would generate a warning.`
		6749
		6750	`* BuildPkgArchive and LinkPkgArchive directives`
		6751	`Ensure that packages are only included once. The previous check`
		6752	`was half-hearted and could allow multiple packages of the same`
		6753	`version to be included. This could result in badly formed`
		6754	`makefiles and strange error messages.`
		6755
		6756	`Internal Changes`
		6757	`* Started to factor out internal packages and place them into a common`
		6758	`directory. This will allow common error handling thoughout the suite`
		6759	`of utilities.`
		6760
		6761	`Modified all utilities to utilize the common error reporting`
		6762	`functions.`

		6769	`Modified the windows shell to remove the use of the EXTENDED_LINE`
		6770	`cache. This did not work. Modified the extend.lst file to ensure`
		6771	`that sed did not process its arguments.`
		6772
		6773	`This has been done to address a problem seen within test scripts`
		6774	`within unit tests that use wildcard expansion. The windows shell was`
		6775	`incorrectly processing:`
		6776	`sed '-es~.*WIN32~~'`
		6777	`The '.*' construct was being seen as a wildcard and the shell was`
		6778	`then putting the argument into a command file - it was totally`
		6779	`confused.`
		6780
		6781	`NOTE: Attempted to remove use of EXTENDED_LINE, but this caused a`
		6782	`breakage with the DOS based gcc compiler( ie:H8S and others).`
		6783	`The construct`
		6784	`-D__SOURCE__=\"name\"`
		6785	`was corrupted somewhere. If the command is put in a command file,`
		6786	`then it works.`
		6787
		6788	`* MakeAnt directive`
		6789	`Added option: --GeneratedFile=PathOfFile`
		6790
		6791	`This option has the following effects`
		6792	`1) Marks the file a source file. It is then known to JATS and`
		6793	`can be used installed and manipulated.`
		6794
		6795	`2) Schedules the processing of the ANT build to be done`
		6796	`early - in the generated files phase.`
		6797
		6798	`Intended use. The creation of packages with a JNI. The Java`
		6799	`component needs to generate a header file early.`
		6800
		6801
		6802	`Minor changes:`
		6803	`* JATS post-installation script`
		6804	`Flag deployment tools and libraries as executable.`
		6805
		6806	`* Detection of extension type is case insensitive for non-unix`
		6807	`systems. Thus .h and .H files will considered header files in`
		6808	`windows.`
		6809
		6810	`* Build.pl rewrite tool`
		6811	`Handle all variants of BuildName`
		6812
		6813	`* Jats wrapper script`
		6814	`Generate an error if the JATS configuration variables are not usable`
		6815	`1) Contain spaces`
		6816	`2) Start with a // - Remote drives must be mapped`
		6817
		6818	`* Toolset`
		6819	`Added a 'LINUX' platform.`
		6820
		6821	`* JAVA toolset`
		6822	`Ensure the that build file passed via MakeAnt contains the following`
		6823	`directive:`
		6824
		6825	`includeAntRuntime="off"'`
		6826
		6827	`This MUST be used to ensure that ANT's classpath is not passed to`
		6828	`the java compiler thus ensuring that the compiler does not use ANT's`
		6829	`version of any JAR files that have not been specified by the user.`
		6830
		6831	`* GCC Toolset`
		6832	`Use -Map name to create map files as needed for GCC under Debian`
		6833
		6834	`* Makefile generation`
		6835	`When packages are used by name to resolve package location JATS`
		6836	`has been modified to use the package name specified by the user.`
		6837	`Previously JATS would use the package name found within the`
		6838	`descpkg file. In cases where the descpkg file was badly formed the`
		6839	`package could not be used.`
		6840
		6841	`* Unit Tests`
		6842	`The following environment variables are set:`
		6843
		6844	`GBE_TYPE - The type of build. Debug or production. This`
		6845	`will be set to either a 'P' or 'D'`
		6846
		6847	`GBE_HOST - The host machine we are running on.`
		6848	`This will be set to 'WIN' or Unix'`
		6849
		6850	`These variable should assist in the production of test scripts.`
		6851
		6852	`* New makefile.pl directive: SetValue`
		6853
		6854
		6855	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`

		6858	`Major changes:`
		6859	`* New Platform : "MCR" using the Mitsubishi m16c compiler.`
		6860
		6861	`Special features of this toolset.`
		6862	`1) A .THX source file will be converted to an obtect file`
		6863	`This allows processing of fonts within a THX file to be`
		6864	`incorporated within the target image.`
		6865
		6866	`2) Prog directive extensions:`
		6867	`--Set=Name=Value`
		6868	`The 'Name' is set to 'Value' at link time.`
		6869	`This allows the location of program segments to be set`
		6870
		6871	`--Ref=name`
		6872	`The name of a Release file. If provided, it will be used`
		6873	`to provide information that will be placed within the`
		6874	`THX header. The version number will be ignored. It`
		6875	`will be taken from the build version number.`
		6876
		6877	`Minor changes:`
		6878	`* MOS Toolset`
		6879	`Create the VisionClick files when the THX file is created.`
		6880	`Previously the files were created when the THX was installed or`
		6881	`packaged.`
		6882
		6883	`* Src directive`
		6884	`No generates a warning if no source files are located within the`
		6885	`directive. This is normally the result of a missing platform`
		6886	`specifier.`
		6887
		6888	`* WIN32 runtime support`
		6889	`Added the following 'Unix' style utilities to assist in testing.`
		6890	`1) od - dump files in octal and other formats`
		6891	`2) cmp - compare two files byte by byte`
		6892
		6893	`Internal:`
		6894	`Added an extension to allow the target toolset to handle the "Prog"`
		6895	`dependancy generation if required. This allow complex program`
		6896	`generation mechanisms to be handled by the toolset.`
		6897
		6898	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6899	`Version: JATS_2.42.0 Released: 19-Oct-05`
		6900	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6901	`Major changes:`
		6902	`* BuildAlias directive`
		6903	`Added options.`
		6904	`--Define - Does not create implicit platforms`
		6905	`--Target - Redeclares the alais as the list of all`
		6906	`platforms that are based on a given target or`
		6907	`targets.`
		6908	`Eg:`
		6909	`BuildAlias ( 'LMOS,--Target', 'LMOS_WIN32', 'LMOS_linux_armv4' );`
		6910	`BuildProduct ( 'GAK', 'LMOS', 'MOS68K', 'MOSCF' );`
		6911	`BuildProduct ( 'PCP', 'LMOS', 'MOS68K' );`
		6912
		6913	`Will export an alias of LMOS that can be used within makefile.pl's`
		6914	`that will be the list of all platforms that have a target of`
		6915	`'LMOS_WIN32' or 'LMOS_linux_armv4'.`
		6916
		6917	`Note the dual use of LMOS within the example. This is intentional.`
		6918	`The LMOS alias is used within the BuildProduct to simplify the`
		6919	`specification of all the LMOS targets.`
		6920
		6921
		6922	`Minor changes:`
		6923	`* Label utility`
		6924	`Will generate a warning message if it labels more than one`
		6925	`build.pl file`
		6926
		6927	`* Package directives. PackageFile.`
		6928	`Corrected a problem with wildcard expansion in which a --FilterIn`
		6929	`needed to be specified in order for the --FilterOut to operate.`
		6930	`Now all files in the tree are considered 'in' unless modified by the`
		6931	`--FilterIn option.`
		6932
		6933	`* jats release (cbuilder) utility`
		6934	`Correct use of the -prodOnly and -debugOnly flags.`
		6935	`The full name was not accepted; -debug and -prod was.`
		6936
		6937	`* Location of descpkg file`
		6938	`All makefile.pl's now know where the package descpkg file was`
		6939	`created. This simplifies the process og packaging this file as it`
		6940	`can be done within any makefile.pl.`
		6941
		6942	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6943	`Version: JATS_2.41.0 Released: 27-Sep-05`
		6944	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6945	`Major changes:`
		6946	`* RunTest directive`
		6947	`Extended the options and operation of RunTest`
		6948	`Additional options`
		6949	`--CopyIn=file`
		6950	`This will copy the specified file into the BIN directory before`
		6951	`the test is run. The file will be marked as executable. This`
		6952	`allows scripts and configuration files to be transferred into`
		6953	`the test area.`
		6954
		6955	`Additional operations`
		6956	`The arguments passed to the script/program allow a number of`
		6957	`transformations, similar to GenerateFiles. Transforms`
		6958	`--File(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a known file`
		6959	`--Local(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a file that has been Installed`
		6960	`--PackageBase(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a Package`
		6961	`Allows flags:`
		6962	`--dir - directory part of the pathname`
		6963	`--file - file part of the pathname`
		6964	`--abspath - as an absolute path`
		6965	`--absdrive - as an absolute path with drive letter (Windows)`
		6966
		6967	`Files and directories are prerequisites of the test. Their`
		6968	`existence is tested.`
		6969
		6970	`* Packaging Directives`
		6971	`Added a --Derived option to support the packaging of derived targets`
		6972	`such as LMOS.`
		6973
		6974	`PackageHdr ('*', 'file1.h', '--Derived=LMOS');`
		6975

		6984	`the version of Java to be used to build a package.`
		6985
		6986	`BuildPlatforms ( 'JAVA,--Version=1.5' );`
		6987
		6988	`The default will use the default machine version of JAVA.`
		6989	`This may not be sutable for all packages.`
		6990
		6991	`Non-default versions of JAVA require that an environment variable be`
		6992	`set to the root of the JDK directory. These are:`
		6993
		6994	`JAVA_HOME_1_4`
		6995	`JAVA_HOME_1_5`
		6996
		6997	`Minor changes:`

		7000	`These scripts are now always marked as executable.`
		7001
		7002	`* JATS environment`
		7003	`Ensure that all programs run under JATS in Windows have an uppercase`
		7004	`COMSPEC envvar. Windows appears to define a mixed case one. Fixed in`
		7005	`the JATS wrapper script.`
		7006
		7007	`* Label utility`
		7008	`Added -[no]checkout to control the labeling of checked out files.`
		7009	`There are three modes of operation:`

		7026	`Extended the 'Prog' directive to allow a Program Loader to be`
		7027	`added to a program as it is created. The option is:`
		7028	`--ProgLoader=name`
		7029
		7030	`* Package directives. PackageFile`
		7031	`Added support for packaging of directory trees.`
		7032	`Options to do this are:`
		7033	`--TreeDir=name`
		7034	`--FilterOut=regexp`
		7035	`--FilterIn=regexp`
		7036	`--StripDir`
		7037
		7038	`Only a single directory can be specified.`
		7039	`Multiple filters are allowed.`
		7040	`The directories must be within the current directory. It is not`
		7041	`possible to search outside the subdirectory tree below the makefile.`
		7042
		7043	`The filters allow elements within the directory to be selected.`
		7044	`The filters are regular expressions. Examples:`
		7045
		7046	`'--FilterIn=\.h$' - Select all files ending with .h`
		7047	`'--FilterOut=MyHeader.h' - Except this one`
		7048
		7049	`The --StripDir option will remove the TreeDir directory from the`
		7050	`files. This allows the top level directory to be stripped off.`
		7051
		7052
		7053	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7054	`Version: JATS_2.39.0 Released: 14-Sep-05`
		7055	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7056	`Major changes:`
		7057	`* Make commands`
		7058	`Consolidated the parsing of the OPTIONS arguments.`

		7079
		7080	`* Release utility`
		7081	`Add options to build only the debug or the production versions.`
		7082	`The default is to build both. Note: User option may be further`
		7083	`restricted by options within the build.`
		7084
		7085	`* PackageLib, InstallLib and MergeLib directives in makefile.pl`
		7086	`The use of @LIBS and @MLIBS in unix systems was causing a`
		7087	`problem as these variables already had a 'lib' prepended to the`
		7088	`list of libraries. These directives would add another 'lib' to the`
		7089	`list of libraries under unix causing a mismatch.`
		7090
		7091	`Corrected by stripping liblib from the names within these`
		7092	`directives.`
		7093
		7094	`* MakeProject directive`
		7095	`If the project build fails the log file was not being displayed`
		7096	`because 'make' stops when a command fails.`
		7097
		7098	`The MakeProject operations have been modified to ensure that the`
		7099	`log file is always displayed. The exit code of the build command`
		7100	`is preserved.`
		7101
		7102	`* Auto build utility jats-rewrite.pl`
		7103	`Modified to support the rewrite of Java 'using' and 'project'`
		7104	`statements.`

		7122	`Minor changes:`
		7123	`* AddFlags directives`
		7124	`Added a --NoWarn option that will suppress the warning of`
		7125	`duplicate flags being added.`
		7126
		7127	`* GBE_CORE environment variable (Windows)`
		7128	`Ensure that GBE_CORE has a driver letter. This allows use of JATS`
		7129	`loaded into the same dynamic view as the user code.`
		7130
		7131	`* Mug File Generation`
		7132	`Added support to allow load files to include other load files.`
		7133
		7134	`* 'cbuild' or 'release' command`
		7135	`Added a -latestroot=xxxx option. This is a work around for the`
		7136	`problem where the root level directory in the VOB has not been`
		7137	`labeled. After using this switch add the label to the root`
		7138	`directory.`
		7139
		7140	`The need to use this this switch indicates that the view is NOT`
		7141	`reproducible.`

		7150	`longer a list of directories.`
		7151
		7152	`Removal of the setup of Microsoft Visual Studio 6. This is now`
		7153	`done within the toolset.`

		7170	`Enhanced (thanks Ross) to allow PATH information for various`
		7171	`target platforms to be extracted.`
		7172
		7173	`Better support for Product families. This is only an issue`
		7174	`for WIN32 derived families due to the generation of a list of`
		7175	`libraries. The list now observes Product hierarchy.`
		7176
		7177	`* Utility: release (cbuilder)`
		7178	`Added -noruntests option too suppress the running of unit tests`
		7179	`Units tests will still be run by default.`

		7202	`tests will be run with the 'run_unit_tests' target. All tests will`
		7203	`be run with the 'run_tests' targets. Only tests that confirm to`
5710	dpurdie	7204	`the VIX "Unit Test Automation" guidelines should be marked as`
227	dpurdie	7205	`-- Auto.`
		7206

		7215	`locate required Shared Libraries at runtime.`
		7216
		7217	`* WIN32 targets built using Visual Studio 6`
		7218	`The path to the compiler is setup within JATS. It is no longer`

		7223	`* WINCE Targets`
		7224	`The name of the SDK is case sensitive.`

		7247
		7248	`Minor changes:`

		7285
		7286	`Minor changes:`
		7287	`* Correct the case of 4 toolset files. The files were created under`
		7288	`windows, which has a habit of capitalizing filenames.`
		7289	`This should not affect current users.`

		7305	`* Jats wrapper script`
		7306	`Windows: Ensure that cmd.exe is in the users PATH. Without cmd.exe`

		7309
		7310	`* LinkPkgArchive and BuildPkgArchive`
		7311	`Processing soft links. Generate a warnings if a package soft`

		7339
		7340	`* MakeAnt directive`
		7341	`Now supports --Debug and --Prod options to limit the building of`

		7380	`* Support for Windows DLLs`
		7381	`When building a WIN32 target the file interface/set_WIN32.bat is`

		7383	`by the package to be accessed.`
		7384
		7385	`The file may be "called" from a wrapper batch file to start the`

		7463	`with only a comma between the platforms: No whitespace`
		7464	`If whitespace did exist then the makefile.pl would not do what`

		7466	`solution was to allow whitespace either side of the comma.`
		7467
		7468	`* GenerateFiles directive within makefile.pl`
		7469	`Allow 3 different bracket styles for the arguments to allow for`
		7470	`embedded brackets. Now allow`

		7489	`to the package into the local_dpkg_archive. This can be used by`
		7490	`other components.`

		7520	`production.`
		7521

		7545	`The PDB files created when compiling objects for DLLs are now not`

		7711	`the required package is not available. A "--package" option, to`
		7712	`the build command, will prevent this behaviour.`
		7713
		7714
		7715	`Minor changes:`
		7716	`* create_dpkg utility`
		7717	`Touch descpkg files when packages are merged. This will allow`
		7718	`utilities that use the timestamp of this file to determine that`
		7719	`the package has been altered.`

		7741
		7742	`The default operation is to replace the package indpkg_archive.`
		7743
		7744	`* Simplify the use of GBE_BUILDFILTER`
		7745	`GBE_BUILDFILTER should be used to limit the creation of makefiles`
		7746	`to those that are supported by the underlying hardware.`
		7747
		7748	`The change allows the construct`
		7749	`GBE_BUILDFILTER=SOLARIS --TARGET=SOLARIS`
		7750	`to be replaced by the simpler`
		7751	`GBE_BUILDFILTER=SOLARIS`

		7797	`ansi, but is often done.`
		7798
		7799	`* GCC toolset`
		7800	`Corrected operation of the C++ compiler. The object file was not`

		7802
		7803	`* jats "label"`
		7804	`The -auto -clone options allow a label to be created if its not`

		7870
		7871	`* Jats wrapper`

		7886	`* WIN32 and WinCE Toolset. New CompileOptions`
		7887	`NoPDB - Disable the generation of PDBs`
		7888	`PDB - Enable the generation of PDBs (default).`
		7889
		7890	`These options operation affect all components within the`

		7899	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7900	`Version: JATS_2.14.0 Released: 18-Mar-05`

		7913	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7914	`Version: JATS_2.13.0 Released: 18-Mar-05`
		7915	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7916	`Major changes:`
		7917	`* Modified the order in which the makefiles passes operate. Merged`
		7918	`the make_shlib and the install_shlib into one phase. The`
		7919	`implication of this is that Shared Libraries that are created can`
		7920	`"installed" so that other shared libraries can link against them.`
		7921	`The order in which the makefile.pl's are processed is important as`
		7922	`this is the order in which the libraries will be created and`
		7923	`installed.`
		7924
		7925	`This solution does not handle mutual shared libraries: two shared`
		7926	`libraries that depend on each other.`
		7927
		7928	`This is an issue only in Solaris and Linux systems that do not`
		7929	`generate separate stub libraries to link against.`
		7930
		7931	`Minor changes:`
		7932	`* WIN32 and WinCE Toolsets`
		7933	`Building up resources. The RC compiler can now locate resource files`
		7934	`in the "local" and "interface" directory.`
		7935
		7936	`* The version.c, version.h and descpkg files will be created in the`
		7937	`first directory named with a BuildDir directive, unless a`
		7938	`"src" directory is encountered. This mimics the operation`
		7939	`of the older JATS, without the need for a "src" directory.`
		7940
		7941	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7942	`Version: JATS_2.12.0 Released: 18-Mar-05`
		7943	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7944	`Major changes:`
		7945
		7946	`Minor changes:`
		7947	`* Added a --Depend=xxx[,yyy]+ option to the Src directive`
		7948	`Not needed for C and C++ files, but may be used in conjunction`
		7949	`with assembler files to indicate that the file includes another`
		7950	`file.`
		7951
		7952	`* Fixed problem with the local_dpkg_archive consistency test when`
		7953	`a soft link is used to redirect to the package.`
		7954
		7955	`* Win32 and WinCE toolsets`
		7956	`Added a compiler option to enable Run Time Type Information.`
		7957	`CompileOptions ('WIN32', 'RTTI' );`
		7958
		7959	`Add an option to Shared Library creation to allow the generation of`
		7960	`a Resource Only DLL. Option is "--ResourceOnly"`
		7961
		7962	`Add an option to allow Resources to be built into Static Libraries`
		7963	`in the same manner at Shared Libraries.`
		7964
		7965	`* WinCE toolsets`
		7966	`Mutual DLL support corrected. Library path is used to resolve`
		7967	`compiler specific libraries.`
		7968
		7969	`* SOLARIS toolset`
		7970	`Prevent the compiler displaying its command line. This is in line`
		7971	`with the other tools sets. The commands can be seen with`
		7972	`OPTIONS=args and this may be set in the users environment.`
		7973
		7974	`Modified the cleanup process to delete the links to shared`
		7975	`libraries. Only files, and not links to files, where being`
		7976	`cleaned up.`
		7977
		7978	`* Microtec tools set (MOS)`
		7979	`Dependancy generation can display commands with OPTIONS=args`
		7980
		7981	`* jats_rewriter.pl`
		7982	`Allow BuildName and LinkPkgArchive directives to contains arguments`
		7983	`with either " or ' characters.`

		7986	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7987	`Version: JATS_2.11.0 Released: 15-Mar-05`
		7988	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7989	`Major changes:`
		7990	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		7991	`The entire "include" directory is copied into the interface area`
		7992	`The installer was trying to be too smart and only copy platform`
		7993	`specific files,but was missing out many needed subdirectories`
		7994
		7995	`Reduce the warnings generated. These were an artifact of the process`
		7996	`of picking up all the strange variations of the directory structures.`
		7997
		7998	`* Cleaned up the handling of object files that were generated by the`
		7999	`user.`
		8000
		8001	`* MOS Microtec Toolset`
		8002	`Always present an absolute filename to the compiler`
		8003	`Display a shortened filename to allow the user to track progress`
		8004
		8005	`This will remove error messages about the path being too long`
		8006	`for the -Gf option.`
		8007
		8008	`Minor changes:`
		8009	`* SOLARIS Toolset`
		8010	`Remove duplicate -KPIC flags on the command line`
		8011
		8012	`* Win32 and WinCE Toolset`
		8013	`Source files are either compiled by the C compiler as C files or`
		8014	`the C++ compiler as C++ files. The option to allow the compiler to`
		8015	`figure out what sort of file it is has been removed.`
		8016
		8017	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8018	`Version: JATS_2.10.0 Released: 11-Mar-05`
		8019	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8020	`Major changes:`
		8021	`* Extended BuildName to accept the form`
		8022	`BuildName ('package_name', 'nn.nn.nn.xxx' );`
		8023
		8024	`* MOS68K and MOSCF toolset.`
		8025	`Extended the --board option to allow the user to define code and`
		8026	`data addresses for the board.`
		8027
		8028	`BuildProduct( 'TP5', 'MOSCF','--board=01234H,05678H' );`
		8029
		8030	`Will set the code,data address for the debugable image`
		8031
		8032	`* Extended the PackageXxxxx options`
		8033	`1) Allow --Platform=xxx,yyy`
		8034	`Where xxx is a directory prefix and yyy is suffix to the`
		8035	`"platform" name. Only useful within the context of the`
		8036	`PackageFile`
		8037
		8038	`2) The operation of --Platform=xxx when used by the PackageFile`
		8039	`directive now treats the xxx directory as a prefix to the`
		8040	`platform name. Other Package directives still treat it as a`
		8041	`suffix. In practice this is the logical use.`
		8042
		8043	`* Allow InstallLib and PackageLib to install a file that has been`
		8044	`discovered with a "Src" directive. This allows generated files`
		8045	`to be installed and packaged.`
		8046
		8047	`Minor changes:`
		8048
		8049	`* cache_dpkg utility`
		8050	`If a package is found in the local_dpkg_archive then the cache`
		8051	`entry will be deleted and the master archive will not be accessed.`
		8052
		8053	`* label utility`
		8054	`New option -auto to create and label`
		8055
		8056	`* Build WIN32 and WinCe Mutual DLLs with all the object files`
		8057	`This allows the generated import library to contain C++ names`
		8058
		8059	`* The BuildDirTree directive now supports an empty first argument`
		8060	`This allows a NULL tree.dir file, while still creating the root`
		8061	`directory. ie:`
		8062
		8063	`BuildDirTree ( '', 'pkg' );`
		8064
		8065	`* Fixed DEVIM 00019520`
		8066	`The problem was that /bin/pwd could return a different path to`
		8067	`the Cwd:getpwd() function. Solution: Use one mechanism throughout.`
		8068
		8069
		8070	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8071	`Version: JATS_2.9.0 Released: 28-Feb-05`
		8072	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8073	`Major changes:`
		8074	`* First release for Back Office and Front Office use.`
		8075
		8076	`* Added the jats tool jats_rewrite.pl to rewrite build.pl files.`
		8077	`To be used by the nightly build process.`
		8078
		8079	`* Work around a problem in the Microtec 68K compiler.`
		8080	`The compiler uses temp files. If the temp file name that the`
		8081	`compiler uses already exists, then the compiler will not delete`
		8082	`the file. Instead it appends information to the existing file.`
		8083
		8084	`The workaround is to create the temp files within the build's`
		8085	`interface directory and to remove all temp files before each`
		8086	`compilation.`
		8087
		8088	`This bug does not affect the Mictotec CF compiler.`
		8089
		8090	`Minor changes:`
		8091	`* The "jats clobber" command will remove version definition file, if`
		8092	`one is being produced.`
		8093
		8094	`* Using JATS within a Visual Studio project. The "rebuild all"`
		8095	`option now translates to the JATS unbuild command to do a better`
		8096	`job of cleaning the workspace.`
		8097
		8098	`* Added GetPackageRoot() directive to support the packaging of MOS`
		8099
		8100	`* Generate error message for misuse of the SubDir directive`
		8101
		8102	`* Modified BuildName to allow an '-' in the name.`
		8103	`This provides backward compatibility with existing packages.`
		8104
		8105	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8106	`Version: JATS_2.8.0 Released: 17-Feb-05`
		8107	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8108	`Major changes:`
		8109	`* Added some new WINCE based targets. These require WINCE SDKs to be`
		8110	`installed in order for the compilers to work.`
		8111
		8112	`* New PLATFORMS are WCEIT3000, WCEPA961 and WCEPCM7220`
		8113
		8114	`* All invocations of xmake specify the name of the makefile`
		8115	`This allow GNUMakefiles and the Jats makefiles to exist in the`
		8116	`same directory`
		8117
		8118	`* Overcome a limitation of the Microtec compiler in which the flag`
		8119	`_DEBUG is defined enev in production builds - contrary to the`
		8120	`documenattion.`
		8121
		8122	`Minor changes:`
		8123	`* Process of descpkg files allows for both Unix and DOS line endings`
		8124	`Under Unix JATS would report that the package names don't match`
		8125
		8126	`* Corrected a problem with BuildPkgArchive in which file names with`
		8127	`spaces could not be soft linked. Only affects Unix systems.`
		8128
		8129	`* Added a -rename to the "jats label" utility.`
		8130	`Ensure that the user specified label exists in the VOB`
		8131
		8132	`* Correct problem with "make clean" that resulted in a verbose display`
		8133	`when the verbose option had not been selected`
		8134
		8135	`* Correct a problem with "make unbuild". Changes in the build files`
		8136	`would prevent the execution of the command. This command should`
		8137	`be exempt from this test.`
		8138
		8139	`* Correct a problem with "make clean" in the WIN32 and WINCE`
		8140	`platforms where the .exp files were not deleted.`
		8141
		8142	`* The "JATS clobber" command now invokes "make clobber" and "build`
		8143	`clobber". The result is as clean a clean as it can be.`
		8144
		8145	`Note: Jats "clean" does not remove a lot of files. These can be`
		8146	`removed with "unbuild" and "unpackage". This is what "clobber"`
		8147	`does.`
		8148
		8149	`* The operation of "build clobber" has been cleaned up. It will`
		8150	`not try to invoke make if the makefiles have already been removed.`
		8151
		8152
		8153	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8154	`Version: JATS_2.7.0 Released: 09-Feb-05`

		8156	`Major changes:`
		8157	`* First release with support for the DAFBR compiler`
		8158
		8159	`* Extended MergeLibrary. Added per-file options of:`
		8160	`--Interface - Pull lib from Interface directory`
		8161	`--Local - Pull lib from Local directory (default)`
		8162	`--SubDir=pathname - Pull lib from a subdirectory`
		8163	`Note: xxxx,pathname still works`
		8164
		8165	`* Added "jats label" to provide a number of useful labeling`
		8166	`operations.`
		8167
		8168	`* Added extensive help to JATS. JATS -man.`

		8172	`Minor changes`
		8173	`* Added an 'ebin' command to jats to allow the JATS binary tools to`
		8174	`be run in a controlled environment from the command line.`
		8175
		8176	`* Prune the list of library paths passed through to the various`
		8177	`toolsets. If a directory does not have any files in it then the`
		8178	`directory is not added to the library path.`
		8179
		8180	`Thus if a library is located in xxxx/lib/WIN32 then JATS will`
		8181	`not add the xxxx/lib to the path.`
		8182
		8183	`* cbuilder will now look in all VOBs for the user specified label.`
		8184	`The program has a list of "known" labels which it will search`
		8185	`first in an attempt to speed up the process.`
		8186
		8187	`* The AddFlags directive will issue a warning if the flags does not`
		8188	`begin with a -D or a -U. The user should not be using compiler`
		8189	`specific flags.`
		8190
		8191	`* The use of linker flags will issue a warning.`
		8192
		8193	`* Process the common makefile.pl after the toolset has been`
		8194	`determined. This allows the toolset to extend the CompileOptions`
		8195	`such they are available to the common makefile.pl.`
		8196
		8197	`* Added the WIN32 CompileOptions "jats_v1" to force JATS to specify`
		8198	`a number of compile time definitions used by earlier versions of`
		8199	`JATS.`
		8200
		8201	`* Fixed bug in the --Debug option to the PackageProg directives that`
		8202	`caused both the production and debug versions to be packaged.`
		8203
		8204	`* The gen_msproject utility now creates simpler names for the MS`
		8205	`projects that it creates. The name no longer contains the full`
		8206	`pathname, thus making them shorter and readable.`
		8207
		8208	`* The ShowDlls utility now handles absolute and relative paths to`
		8209	`the initial DLL or EXE.`
		8210
		8211	`* Correct problem in which the use of Generate/Rule directives may`
		8212	`fail since prerequisite subdirectories were not being created`
		8213	`since the "generate" phase was not being run.`
		8214
		8215	`Added messages to prompt the user to remove Generate, Generated`
		8216	`and Rule directives. Use the GenerateFiles directive`
		8217
		8218	`* JATS.BAT file will exclude LINUX builds by default.`
		8219
		8220	`* The make NODEPEND=1 processing now does not recurse at all.`
		8221	`Previously each subdirectory was visited - only to do nothing.`
		8222
		8223	`* Correct a problem in creating stub libraries for MOS targets if`
		8224	`the stub library object was not listed with the SharedLib's`
		8225	`objects.`
		8226
		8227	`* Correct a problem with the MS Studio support. The invoked make`
		8228	`command is XXX_all_debug. There was a problem with this command in`
		8229	`that it did not do any dependancy checking and would not always`
		8230	`build defendants.`
