		2758	`as the main binary.`

		3557	`Full support for a target called SOLARIS8_SPARC32`
		3558	`It is identical to SOLARIS in a 'sparc' build machine, but it is only`
		3559	`available on a 'sparc' build machine. Can be used to limit builds to one`
		3560	`machine type.`

		3565	`Major changes:`
315	dpurdie	3566	`* New Build Platform: VB6`
		3567	`Jats has been enhanced to support the building of VB6 .vbg and .vbp`
		3568	`project files.`
		3569
		3570	`* Build Directive BuildVersion.`
		3571	`This has been extended to allow the creation of Version Information in a`
		3572	`form that can be consumed by Visual Basic using '--Style=VB'`
		3573
		3574	`Minor changes:`
		3575	`* Added more internal documentation`
		3576	`Use jats help to see available documentation`

		3584
		3585	`* Solaris 10, 64 Bit Sparc Builds`
		3586	`All compiles are done in a position independent manner (-KPIC)`
		3587	`This solved issues where static libraries are linked into shared`
		3588	`libraries.`
		3589
		3590	`* Solaris builds`
		3591	`Program and Shared library dependency checking is now done before`
		3592	`the program/library objects are built. Thus errors associated with missing`
		3593	`dependencies occur before objects are built and the user can see the cause`
		3594	`of the build failure.`
		3595
		3596
		3597	`Internal changes:`
		3598	`* Moved 'jats vars' functionality into a separate program`

		3608	`* Solaris Builds for 64 bit targets`
		3609	`Changes to fully support the SOLARIS10_X86 and SOLARIS10_SPARC64`

		3625
		3626	`* jats help`

		3661	`Useful side effects include:`
		3662
		3663	`JATS plugins will be sourced from the interface directory if included`
		3664	`with a BuildPkgArchive. This will simplify debugging.`
		3665
		3666	`[DEVI-059682] QtBase can be consumed via a BuildPkgArchive directive,`
		3667	`simplifying the process of packaging additional fonts.`
		3668
		3669	`[DEVI-059685] Simplify implementation of --FromPackage options in other`
		3670	`tools, which obviates the need for QtBase to be consumed via a`
		3671	`BuildPkgArchive`
		3672
313	dpurdie	3673	`* Perl Modules`
		3674	`Included the most recent version of the Pod module within the JATS`
		3675	`release. This will:`

		3691
		3692	`* Jats label utility`
		3693	`Changes to assist in tracking down clearcase labeling errors`
		3694
		3695	`Once labels have been applied a check is done to ensure that`
		3696	`the labels have been placed. The check is to attempt to find`
		3697	`new files and folders to label - there should be none.`
		3698
		3699	`* Jats core`
		3700	`Improved the auto location of the base directory of the build to allow`

		3713
309	dpurdie	3714	`The cmdfile utility creates paths with file path separators as discovered`
307	dpurdie	3715	`in the PATH EnvVar. Now that PATH is nice it means that the use of cmdfile`
309	dpurdie	3716	`to create shell scripts resulted in scripts with unsuitable separators.`
307	dpurdie	3717
		3718	`* WCEPSION_500_VS2005`

		3746
		3747	`WCEPSION_500_VS2005 build cannot consume build artifacts from the`
		3748	`WCEPSION_500. The two are separate.`

		3759	`Note: All platform names should be in uppercase.`
		3760
		3761	`* MOS builds`
		3762	`If a 'product' name not known to JATS is used and a board base address`

		3788
		3789	`* H8S toolset`
		3790	`Ensure the the EnvVar CYGWIN is not set.`
		3791
		3792	`If 'binmode' is set then the gcc compiler used by the H8S toolset cannot`

		3820	`Changes are transparent to users.`

		3823	`as an error. The Microtec tools sets will create a 'pop-up' if`
		3824	`this occurs.`
		3825
		3826	`* The LinkSandbox directive is not allowed when GBE_ABT is set.`
		3827	`This directive is highly discouraged in development: Use a jats 'sandbox'`

		3829	`automated build framework.`
		3830

		3843	`* Jats Command line and -java option`
		3844	`This version will place the specified java's 'bin' directory into`

		3911	`Borlands Delphi Version 7.`
		3912
		3913	`See Jats Reference Manual for complete details and Delphi specific options`
		3914	`to the Prog and SharedLib directives.`
		3915
		3916	`This toolset has a number of limitations:`
		3917	`1) It can build either Debug or Production, but not both, in a single`
		3918	`makefile.pl. This is caused by the Delphi limitation that library`
		3919	`names cannot be changed.`
		3920
		3921	`2) The generation of dependencies between the source and the generated`
		3922	`artifacts is very simplistic.`
		3923
		3924	`Units are generated with the 'Lib' directive. The name of the Unit and the`
		3925	`name of the source are linked. The source should not be provided.`
		3926	`ie: Lib ('*', 'MyUnit' );`
		3927	`Will create a unit called MyUnit.dcu from the source file 'MyUnit.pas'`
		3928
		3929	`Packages are generated with the SharedLib directive starting with a .dpk`
		3930	`file.`
		3931	`ie: SharedLib ( '*', 'MyPackage' );`
		3932	`will create a package called MyPackage.bpl/dcp from the source file`
		3933	`MyPackage.dpk.`
		3934
		3935	`Libraries are generated with the SharedLib directive starting with a .dpr`
		3936	`file.`
		3937	`ie: SharedLib ( '*', 'MyDll' );`
		3938	`will create a package called MyDll.dll/lib from the source file`
		3939	`MyDll.dpr.`
		3940
		3941	`Programs are generated with the Prog directive starting with a .dpr`
		3942	`file.`
		3943	`ie: Prog ( '*', 'MyProg' );`
		3944	`will create a package called MyProg.exe from the source file`
		3945	`MyProg.dpr.`
		3946
		3947	`Minor changes:`
		3948	`* New EnvVar: DELPHI7`
		3949	`Required only if Borland Delphi 7 has not being installed in the`

		3952
		3953	`* BuildVersion directive`
		3954	`Added a 'Style' of 'Delphi' to allow the generation of version information`
		3955	`in a Delphi Unit.`
		3956
		3957	`Modified the operation of the "C" style generation.`
		3958	`If the name of the file is provided via '--File', then the generated files`
		3959	`will be 'known' to JATS and can be consumed from any makefile. JATS will`
		3960	`'know' the location of the files.`
		3961
		3962	`* Sanity test on the names of libraries and programs`
		3963	`Some characters are not allowed: ie: '/' as this is a mistake.`
		3964
		3965	`Internal Changes:`
		3966	`* ToolsetSHLD functions`
		3967	`Pass in the shared library version string as an argument`
		3968	`Means that the core of JATS can manage this information in a manner`
		3969	`that is decoupled from the toolsets.`
		3970
		3971	`* Reworked the mechanism used to hold data about libraries, shared libraries`
		3972	`merged libraries and programs. Created a class to manipulate build targets`
		3973	`and to maintain information about the contents of the targets.`

		3982
289	dpurdie	3983	`* Jats.bat and Jats.sh now provide a default Read Only username/password`

287	dpurdie	3985
289	dpurdie	3986	`NOTE: Windows users will need to update their JATS.BAT file in order`

		3988	`Manager`
287	dpurdie	3989
		3990	`Minor changes:`
		3991	`* The jats option '-noexportvars' deletes selected JATS EnvVars from the`

		5007	`Major changes:`
229	dpurdie	5008	`* Jats Release Mechanism`
		5009	`Jats can now release itself. This is not the same a building all of its`
		5010	`internal components, but it does mean that a new version of JATS can be`
		5011	`released using the 'standard' mechanism.`
		5012
		5013	`Jats releases will be tracked in Release Manager.`
		5014
		5015	`A side effect of this is that the labelling scheme will change to align`
		5016	`itself with Release Manager. ie: <package_name>_<package_version>.`
		5017
		5018	`* Running Jats`
		5019	`Running Jats from within a ClearCase view is being deprecated.`

		5027
		5028	`Minor changes:`
		5029	`* Perl Version Check`
		5030	`Jats will generate a warning if the version of Perl in use is newer`
		5031	`than the version used in test. Newer versions are not always backward`
		5032	`compatible. Currently JATS has been extensively tested with 5.8.8.`
		5033
		5034	`* Build Directive: BuildVersion`
		5035	`This directive has been extended to allow the creation of a 'properties'`

		5037	`build.`
		5038
		5039	`* Jats Internals`

		5041	`Perl 5.10 has not been extensively tested - yet.`
		5042
		5043	`* Jats Tool: CCbc2`
		5044	`Added utility to use BeyondCompare (BC2) to compare files in two`
		5045	`packages defined as ClearCase labels. The utility creates two dynamic views`
		5046	`and starts BeyondCompare. The views are destroyed at the end of the`
		5047	`process.`
		5048
		5049	`Requires BeyondCompare to be installed in its default location.`
		5050	`Only works under Windows.`

		5052	`Use jats CCbc2 -help (or -man) for further details.`
		5053

		5057	`* Jats test runtime helper scripts set_PLATFORM.bat`
		5058	`Uses SETLOCAL / ENDLOCAL to prevent environment variables being exported`
		5059	`into the parent space. This mimics the behaviour of Unix.`
		5060
		5061	`* Jats eprog`
		5062	`Consistent cross-platform handling of programs found in the current`
		5063	`directory.`
		5064
		5065	`* jats tool jats_metrics`

		5075	`* Jats Tool: create_dpkg`
		5076	`Added options to allow the utility to sanity test the package name and`
		5077	`version of the package being created. This is intended to be used by the`

		5079	`-pname=Package_Name`
		5080	`-pversion=Package_Version`
		5081
		5082	`Added option to allow the source package form to be tested, without`

		5084	`-test`
		5085
		5086	`* Jats Tool: CCdiff`

		5091	`a space separated or a comma separated list.`
		5092
		5093	`* Solaris Toolset`
		5094	`Disable the use of purify, purecov and quantify when building shared`
		5095	`libraries. Shared libraries are not supported by these tools. Executable`
		5096	`programs are still supported.`

		5101	`Major changes:`
		5102
		5103	`Minor changes:`
		5104	`* WINCE toolsets`
		5105	`Added a run-time test for the presence of the required toolset`
		5106	`This will report an error if the required WINCE toolset has not been`
		5107	`installed. This is better than obscure message generated by the compilers`
		5108	`when header files cannot be found.`
		5109
		5110	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		5111	`If the generating tool can only be found in the users path, don't make`
		5112	`it a prequisite under Windows. There are problems with spaces in pathnames`
		5113	`that are difficult to solve.`
		5114
		5115	`* MakePerlModule directive`
		5116	`Extended the directive syntax to allow command line options to be passed`

		5122	`-dirs=xxx options.`
		5123
		5124	`* Jats Tool: release`
		5125	`Corrected a problem when multiple ant builds where located within the`
		5126	`build view. Now all ants builds will be perform.`
		5127
		5128	`Expanded the operation of the '-build=name' option such that it can be`
		5129	`used to limit ANT builds by specifying the name of the depends.xml file.`
		5130
		5131	`* Jats Tool: CCdiff`
		5132	`Added utility to provide difference reports in a format suitable to be`
		5133	`uploaded to CodeStriker.`
		5134
		5135	`Use jats CCdiff -help (or -man) for further details.`

		5218	`available within the current build.`
		5219
		5220	`* jats makefiles`
		5221	`Modified the behaviour of jats when multiple instances of the`
		5222	`MakefileGenerate() directive are found.`
		5223
		5224	`If the MakefileGenerate() directive is found in the 'common' makefile.`
		5225	`pl, then it will be ignored.`
		5226
		5227	`* gcc toolset`
		5228	`SharedLibries.`

		5245	`Version: 2.71.1.cr Released: 16-Oct-07`
		5246	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5247	`Major changes:`
		5248
		5249	`Minor changes:`
		5250	`PackageLib directive`
		5251	`The construct "PackageLib( '*', @SHLIBS, @LIBS );" now works as expected.`
		5252	`Packaging multiple libraries and shared libraries works as expected.`
		5253	`Packaging multiple shared libraries works as expected.`
		5254
		5255	`MakefileGenerate directive`
		5256	`This directive should only be called once. JATS will now generate a warning,`
		5257	`and not produce an erroneous, if the directive is invoked more than once.`
		5258
		5259	`Multiple Parent detection`
		5260	`A makefile.pl that is invoked from more than one other makefile.pl, or the`
		5261	`build.pl, is counted as having multiple parents. This condition is`
		5262	`normally treated as an error. When run by the Auto Built Tool, this`
		5263	`condition will be treated as a warning.`
		5264
		5265	`Solaris Toolset`
		5266	`Added option '--WithMisalign' to the SharedLib directive.`
		5267	`When used in conjunction with the 'misalign' CompleOption this option will`
		5268	`cause a machine specific object file (misalign.o) to be included in the`
		5269	`link.`
		5270
		5271	`Programs that are created with 'misalign' will automatically include the`
		5272	`misalign.o object file. The fact that shared libraries do not may be an`
		5273	`indication that this is a bad thing to do.`
		5274
		5275	`Make and generation of subdirectories`
		5276	`Fixed an issue which caused created directories to have a bad timestamp.`
		5277	`This could result in multiple attempts to generate the source dependency`
		5278	`file.`
		5279
		5280	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5281	`Version: 2.71.0.cr Released: 10-Oct-07`
		5282	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5283	`Major changes:`
		5284	`Makefile generation and make recursion`
		5285	`Extensive changes to the makefiles that are generated by JATS and method by`
		5286	`which JATS recuses through subdirectories during a build.`
		5287
		5288	`Summary of changes:`
		5289	`- Removed the use of 'make' to perform recursion over subdirectories`
		5290	`and platforms. This has been replaced by a JATS program that performs`
		5291	`the same task - only a great deal faster and with a greater scope for`
		5292	`flexibility.`
		5293
		5294	`The user interface remains identical: jats make ....`
		5295
		5296	`- Replaced the generated 'Makefile' with 'Makefile.gbe'. This is a text`
		5297	`file that provides sufficient information to allow JATS to locate the`
		5298	`interface directory and associated build information.`
		5299
		5300	`- Significant speed up in determining the need to rebuild a makefile.`
		5301	`On a large package this has been reduced from 30+ seconds to less`
		5302	`than one second.`
		5303
		5304	`- Significant speed up of large recursive builds through intelligent`
		5305	`building of the 'make_init' target. This is only processed once for`
		5306	`each platform type. Previously it was processed in each and every`
		5307	`makefile. This make target is used, internally, to perform sanity`
		5308	`testing of the compiler environment and to display the name of the`
		5309	`toolset. It is an expensive operation.`
		5310
		5311	`- Intelligent speed up of large recursive through better mechanism`
		5312	`for creating required directories. These are now created on the fly,`
		5313	`rather than via a slow recursive pass though all makefiles.`
		5314
		5315	`- Better makefile rebuilding`
		5316	`Makefiles can be rebuilt on the fly. The previous system was prone to`
		5317	`detecting that makefiles needs to be re-built, but then not re-`
		5318	`building them.`
		5319
		5320	`- Detection of build file changes`
		5321	`The make process will detect that the build file has been modified`
		5322	`and that the component has not been rebuilt. This is a warning. It`
		5323	`does not prevent the 'make' operation.`
		5324
		5325	`- Quieter make output`
		5326	`The 'Nothing to be done' message has been disabled.`
		5327
		5328
		5329	`Minor changes:`
		5330	`MakeAnt Directive`
		5331	`Allows ANT_HOME to be a path with spaces. ie: c:\Program Files\apache-ant-1.6.5`
		5332
		5333	`JATS command "debug" and "prod"`
		5334	`These now handle make arguments and options correctly. Thus the command:`
		5335	`jats prod WIN32 OPTIONS=args`
		5336	`Will correctly do a production build for WIN32 with command execution`
		5337	`display. Before, the system would attempt to process prod_OPTIONS=args.`
		5338
		5339	`CSHARP toolset`
		5340	`Correctly detect missing compiler directories`

		5352	`If the Ant build fails JATS will terminate.`
		5353	`Previously JATS would continue until another error forced its termination.`

		5435	`* Reverted changes made in JATS_2.68.1 to the library search path`
		5436	`Although the search order is broken, we will need to live with it.`
		5437

		5441
		5442	`For the record, the search order for header files and libraries is:`
		5443
		5444	`1) As specified with AddIncDir/AddLibDir in the local makefile.pl`

		5467	`Major changes:`
		5468
		5469	`Minor changes:`
		5470	`* Solaris Toolset`
		5471	`Corrected library search order, such that /usr/lib is search after the`
		5472	`dependent packages.`
		5473
		5474	`* RunTest operation`
		5475	`Added the current directory '.' to the PATH used when the test is run.`

		5481	`Version: JATS_2.68.0 Released: 20-Aug-07`
		5482	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5483	`Major changes:`
		5484	`* Trap use of uncontrolled versions of 'ant' and the Java Compiler (javac)`
		5485
		5486	`It was discovered that a few old makefile.pl's where invoking ant and`
		5487	`javac directly in order to build small Java components. This was`
		5488	`normally being done in the guise of the WIN32 target. These packages`
		5489	`were making assumptions about the version of Java on the users search`
		5490	`path.`
		5491
		5492	`JATS can invoke ANT and build Java based components using the MakeAnt`
		5493	`directive and the JAVA platform. This method is controlled and`
		5494	`reproducible.`
		5495
		5496	`This release provides changes such that these packages will not build.`
		5497	`This is better than building incorrectly.`
		5498
		5499	`There are several aspects to the change`
		5500	`1) JATS provides binaries (ant and javac) with an error message. If`
		5501	`the user invoked ant/javac in a manner that involves searching the`
		5502	`PATH then these will be used and report an error.`
		5503
		5504	`2) A special command (jats abt) can be used to start up the Auto Build`
		5505	`Tool in a manner that does not alter the PATH seen by the utilities.`
		5506	`Moreover it does not alter the JAVA_HOME seen by the build. This is`
		5507	`controlled separately.`
		5508
		5509	`Minor changes:`
		5510	`* Sanitize the PATH environment variable`
		5511	`Ensure the JATS bin directory is the first directory searched`
		5512	`Remove duplicates`
		5513	`Place non-existent components at the end of the PATH`
		5514
		5515	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5516	`Version: JATS_2.67.1 Released: 17-Aug-07`
		5517	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5518	`Major changes:`
		5519
		5520	`Minor changes:`
		5521	`* Makefile sanity test`
		5522	`Added a test to ensure that makefiles created on a machine of one type are`
		5523	`not then run on a machine of a different type.`
		5524
		5525	`This will prevent files created on solaris-sparc being used on a solaris-`
		5526	`x86 machine.`
		5527
		5528	`* Correct bug in RunTest`
		5529	`RunTest now extends the PATH to include the local bin directory`

		5531	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5532	`Version: JATS_2.67.0 Released: 13-Aug-07`
		5533	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5534	`Major changes:`
		5535	`* RunTest directive`
		5536	`Added support for running tests within the NUNIT test framework for the`
		5537	`CSHARP target. In the process a generalized mechanism for accessing`
		5538	`toolset specific test frameworks has been added.`
		5539
		5540	`Changes to the directive to support a FrameWork.`
		5541	`The use of a test FrameWork is signaled with the option`
		5542	`--FrameWork=<name> If this is present then the raw name of the program`
		5543	`under test will be passed to the framework. program.`
		5544
		5545	`If a FrameWork is in use, then JATS will invoke the specified framework`
		5546	`builder within the current toolset.`
		5547
		5548	`When a framework is in place JATS will pass arguments of the form:`
		5549	`'--Tag=Text' to the FrameWork. Other options are processed as normal.`
		5550
		5551	`With in the Nunit FrameWork the program under test will be a DLL Nunit`
		5552	`will only operate on a DLL. The DLL must have been created by the makefile`
		5553	`containing the RunTest directive.`
		5554
		5555	`The Nunit Framework supports the following options:`
		5556	`--Uses=<Name>[,SubOption]+`
		5557
		5558	`This option specifies other DLLs that are used by the TestDLL. They will`
		5559	`be copied in to the test directory, and may be sourced from an external`
		5560	`package or the components 'local' lib directory.`
		5561
		5562	`SubOptions available to The --Uses directive are:`
		5563	`--NonJats This is not a JATS built library. It will not have a`
		5564	`P or D suffix.`
		5565	`--Jats (Default) This is a JATS built library. JATS will`
		5566	`select the correct library type for this build.`
		5567
		5568	`Minor changes:`
		5569	`* New Cache cleanup mechanism`
		5570	`When a package is consumed from the 'cache' a flag is updated within`
		5571	`the cache. The cache aging routines use this file in preference to`
		5572	`the descpkg file, thus it will prevent the aging of packages that are`
		5573	`frequently used. The aging policy can be made more aggressive.`
		5574
		5575	`* Save Build Utility`
		5576	`This utility is used by the Auto Build System to save the 'build.pl' file`
		5577	`used in a ripple build.`
		5578
		5579	`The utility has been enhanced to detect a reserved checkout of the`
		5580	`build.pl. The checkout will be changed to unreserved - if possible.`
		5581
		5582	`* Release Utility`
		5583	`The 'jats release' command will now unlock any labels that it locked`
		5584	`when an error is encountered.`
		5585
		5586	`This simplifies the 'release' process as the developers label will be`
		5587	`unlocked if a build error occurs.`
		5588
		5589	`* Jats caching local copy of itself`
		5590	`Fixed a bug which resulted in an "Use of individualized value" message`
		5591	`being displayed a large number of times during the file transfer process.`
		5592
		5593	`* Minor extension to allow plug-in directives to perform a processing step`
		5594	`before the makefiles are created.`
		5595
		5596	`* TestProg directive`
		5597	`TestProg's are now built in exactly the same manner as Progs`
		5598
		5599	`* Correct problem introduced in 2.66.1 with packaging of files with`
		5600	`a 'space' or '$' in the file name.`

		5604	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5605	`Major changes:`
		5606	`* New build target`

		5617
		5618	`Minor changes:`
		5619	`* Added utility class to provide directory searching`
		5620	`To be used in JATS and JATS support tools`

		5623	`Correct problem with filename that start with "n" as in .\not_nice.cs`
		5624
		5625	`Create resource files with Fully Qualified Names derived from the .resx`
		5626	`and .cs files.`
		5627
		5628	`Handle Strong Key Names and creates wrappers to provide do the right`
		5629	`thing.`
		5630
		5631	`* Microtec ColdFire compiler`
		5632	`Further attempts to get the compiler to place all of its temp files in a`
		5633	`local directory. The compiler uses a large number of EnVars to control`
		5634	`were it places temp files.`
		5635
		5636	`Underlying problem is random compiler failures on big builds. Suspected`
		5637	`interaction with other builds.`
		5638
		5639	`* Release utility command`
		5640	`Added a -tag=name option to allow the Auto Build Tools to create`
		5641	`multiple instances of a static view. The tag is used to provide a unique`
		5642	`component in the clearcase tag name.`

		5731	`Major changes:`
		5732	`* Provided a mechanism by which JATS makefile.pl directives can be extended`
		5733	`through modules provided by external packages. This will be used to reduce`
		5734	`the dependancy on JATS of various packaging processes.`
		5735
		5736	`* GenerateFiles`
		5737	`Added the options:`
		5738	`--UnknownPreq - Will force the recipe to be run every time`

		5742
		5743	`--AutoGenerate - Will not force the recipe to be run during the`

		5754	`* GCC Toolset`
		5755	`Creating Shared Libaries with a 'Def' file. The library is now dependent`

		5819	`The hard-coded path to the Kernel Headers has been removed.`

		5845	`run_unit_tests phase.`
		5846
		5847	`* Sandbox support`
		5848	`Embryonic support for building multiple packages in a common sandbox`
		5849	`Will remain undocumented until fully implemented`
		5850
		5851	`Minor changes:`
		5852	`* jats build`
		5853	`Use platform configuration information to prune platforms from the list of`
		5854	`platforms that will be 'built'.`
		5855
		5856	`This simplies the construction of a GBE_BUILDFILTER`
		5857
		5858	`This information is not available for all supported platforms, but is`
		5859	`available for psuedo platforms that transform into machine specific`
		5860	`platforms. These include SOLARIS, LINUX, TP5600 and LMOS_TP5600`
		5861
		5862	`* AVR_IAR Toolset`
		5863	`Clean up 9 files that may be created by the USB license dongle.`
		5864
		5865	`* JATS.BAT`
		5866	`Example file now provides a default GBE_DPKG definition that assumes that`
		5867	`the "V" drive is mapped to \\auperaunx26\devl. This allows access to both`
		5868	`the dpkg_acrhive and the deploy_archive with the one mapping.`
		5869
		5870	`* jats label`
		5871	`Correct problem when locking a label in a specified VOB`

		5875	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5876	`Major changes:`
		5877	`* New build platform:`
		5878	`LMOS_TP5600`
		5879	`LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI`
		5880	`LMOS_TP5600_EMU`
		5881
		5882	`LMOS_TP5600 is a tag that will be expanded to the entire family of LMOS_TP5600`
		5883	`supported targets. A common alias of LMOS_T5600 will be created to`
		5884	`describe the group of platforms.`
		5885
		5886	`LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI and LMOS_TP5600_EMU`
		5887	`These are LMOS based targets. The 'lmos' package must be used in order to`
		5888	`build these targets.`
		5889
		5890	`The LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI can use components from the TP5600_ARM9TDMI,`
		5891	`where no LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI components are provided.`
		5892
		5893	`The LMOS_TP5600_EMU can use components from the TP5600_EMU,`
		5894	`where no LMOS_TP5600_EMU components are provided.`
		5895
		5896	`* New build platform: WINCE`
		5897	`This is a tag that will be expanded to all the known WINCE targets.`
		5898	`Use of this platform will simplify the creation of components for`
		5899	`consumption on all WINCE machines.`
		5900
		5901	`The current list of WINCE targets is:`
		5902	`WCEIT3000`
		5903	`WCEPA961`
		5904	`WCEPA962`
		5905	`WCEPCM7220`

		5910	`WCEX86A500`
		5911	`WCEX86A500_SOM4455`
		5912
		5913	`The WINCE targets actually built will be affected by GBE_BUILDFILTER.`
		5914
		5915	`* JATS makefile.pl`
		5916	`The package descriptor file, 'descpkg', will be packaged in all makefiles`
		5917	`that contain packaging directives.`
		5918
		5919	`There is now no need to explicitly package the 'descpkg' file, except in`
		5920	`very unusual configurations.`
		5921
		5922	`Minor changes:`
		5923	`* Directive: PackageFile`
		5924	`Generate a warning if the source file name does not confirm to good naming`
		5925	`conventions. The filename must not start with a '-' and must not contain`
		5926	`an '='.`
		5927
		5928	`Normally the result of an error in the directive. ie: "-Subdir=etc", instead`
		5929	`of "--Subdir=etc".`
		5930
		5931	`* JATS Internal utility: cmdfile`
		5932	`Updated Linux and Solaris targets with a version of the cmdfile that`
		5933	`provides a better error message for libraries that cannot be found.`
		5934
		5935	`This version will display the library search path with one item per line,`
		5936	`rather than all items on one, very long, line.`
		5937
		5938	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5939	`Version: JATS_2.63.0 Released: 5-Apr-07`
		5940	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5941	`Major changes:`
		5942
		5943	`* JATS release command`
		5944	`Modified the configuration spec generated when a branching rule is`
		5945	`specified. The change will ensure that directories are not branched.`
		5946
		5947	`Rules are:`
		5948	`Modify a file: File will branch`
		5949	`Adding a file: Containing directory will not branch`
		5950	`File will be placed on a branch`
		5951	`Add a directory: Containing directory will not branch`
		5952	`New directory will branch`
		5953
		5954	`Minor changes:`
		5955	`* JATS release command`
		5956	`Added -noprefex option to allow the creation of a view directory without the`
		5957	`user name being prefixed to it. This is useful in creating an escrow view.`
		5958
		5959	`* JATS label command`
		5960	`Detect and report parent directories that are checkedout when a label`
		5961	`is applied. Previously these had gone unreported.`
		5962
		5963	`* JATS make`
		5964	`Undo previous change to preserve symbolic links while Packaging and`
		5965	`Installing files. A problem was encountered when a file from a package`
		5966	`was re-packaged.`
		5967
		5968	`* JATS escrow`
		5969	`Added a tool to generate information for creating an escrow drop.`
		5970	`Use jats escrow -help for details`
		5971
		5972	`* makefile.pl directive: MakeAnt`
		5973	`This directive will create parameters to specify the location of external java`
		5974	`packages that have been referenced via a LinkPkgArchive directive.`
		5975
		5976	`This allows the build.xml to contruct a CLASSPATH to access JAR files in`
		5977	`packages, without the overhead of copying the entire package into the`
		5978	`interface directory.`
		5979
		5980	`* build.pl directive: BuildPkgArchive`
		5981	`Modified the processing of 'jar' directories.`
		5982	`Directories of the form 'jar.<target>' will be transferred into the 'jar'`
		5983	`directory as seen by the package.`
		5984
		5985	`Intended use: Deployment of oraclient for Solaris 10`
		5986
		5987	`* JAVA 6`
		5988	`JATS now supports all versions of Java through the use of JAVA_HOME_X_Y`
		5989	`environment variables. Where X andY specify the version of JAVA.`
		5990
		5991	`The jats.bat and jats.sh example files only provide indication of 1.4, 1.5`
		5992	`and 1.6 support, but all versions are now supported.`
		5993
		5994	`The "jats vars -v" command will display all JAVA_HOME environment variables`
		5995
		5996	`* Jats command: vars`
		5997	`Extended to show a "*" for EnvVars that do not address a valid directory`
		5998	`These indicate potential problems.`
		5999
		6000	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6001	`Version: JATS_2.62.4 Released: 20-Mar-07`
		6002	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6003	`Major changes:`
		6004	`* JATS create_dpkg + packageing shared libraries (Unix)`
		6005	`When a shared library is created a simple symbolic link to the versioned`
		6006	`libarry is also created.`
		6007
		6008	`Previous versions of JATS would replace the symbolic link with a physical`
		6009	`copy of the file. The effect of this is that when the shared libaries is`
		6010	`'Installed', 'Packaged' and transferred into dpkg_archive there are two`
		6011	`files, instead of one file and one link to the file (in the same directory)`
		6012	`The Solaris shared libraries can be quite large, due to the debug`
		6013	`information contained within the file.`
		6014
		6015	`This version of JATS will preserve symbolic links when 'Installing',`
		6016	`'Packaging' and transferring to dpkg_archive.`
		6017
		6018	`The advantage of this will be significant reduction in disk space used`
		6019	`within the build environment and dpkg_archive.`
		6020
		6021	`* Building Perl Modules`
		6022	`Modified the process to prevent the module builder attempting to modify the`
		6023	`documentation on the build machine.`
		6024
		6025	`Integrated the 'jats clean' operation.`
		6026
		6027	`Minor changes:`
		6028	`* jats create_dpkg`
		6029	`Added an option to create a built.generic file`
		6030	`This is only used by the Automated Built Tools.`
		6031
		6032	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6033	`Version: JATS_2.62.3 Released: 28-Feb-07`
		6034	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6035	`Major changes:`
		6036	`* JATS JAVA build target`
		6037	`The default behaviour of the JAVA build target has changed such that the`
		6038	`default version of JAVA used will be 1.4.`
		6039
		6040	`Previous behaviour was to use whichever version was specified by the EnvVar`
		6041	`JAVA_HOME. This was not controlled, thus the build was not controlled.`
		6042	`Problems occur when using the new AutoBuildTool as it uses Java 1.5 and this`
		6043	`is then picked up as the default version.`
		6044
		6045	`If a version, other than 1.4, is required then specify it within the`
		6046	`build.pl file.`
		6047
		6048	`Minor changes:`
		6049	`* jats release`
		6050	`Ensure that the 'cleartool' command can be found in the users PATH`
		6051	`Issue an error if it cannot be found.`
		6052	`This error indicates bad DevEnv setup`
		6053
		6054	`Added facility to create a view based on a config_spec, instead of a label.`
		6055	`Such a view cannot be used to create a release. It is intended to simplify`
		6056	`the creation of simple static views. The name of view is, by default,`
		6057	`based on the name of the config spec. Use the -view=name option to change`
		6058	`the name of the view.`
		6059
		6060	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		6061	`Added new --Vars() to allow packaging of JATS plugin tools.`
		6062
		6063	`* MOS Toolset`
		6064	`When using MOS fast intermodule calls the optimizer will preload commonly`
		6065	`used memory addresses into a register BEFORE the GDP has been correctly set`
		6066	`up. Use the following option to suppress this optimization`
		6067
		6068	`Added: CompileOptions ('*', 'NoGlobalOptimization' );`
		6069

		6071	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6072	`Version: JATS_2.62.2 Released: 15-Feb-07`
		6073	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6074	`Major changes:`
		6075
		6076	`Minor changes:`
		6077	`* JATS environment`
		6078	`Ensure that the true path of the Perl executable is present in the PATH`
		6079	`environment variable. This allows build tool access to various perl utilities`
		6080	`that are located in the Perl bin directory.`
		6081
		6082	`Resolves issues in locating utilities such as pod2html`
		6083
		6084	`* Use of GENERIC platforms`
		6085	`Report an error if a GENERIC platform is mixed with any other platform`
		6086	`specifier. GENERIC is used for packages that build on all machines because`
		6087	`they do not use a compiler or linker. They simply contains files that need`
		6088	`to be packaged.`
		6089
		6090	`* Generated makefiles`
		6091	`Solaris and Linux: Ensure that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is exported if it is used.`
		6092
		6093	`* Generating MOS THX files`
		6094	`Added option --BinaryImage to the SharedLib directive used to create MOS THX`
		6095	`files. This option will create a binary image (.bin) instead of a .thx file.`
		6096	`This is being used in the creation of BR Applets.`
		6097
		6098	`SharedLib ( 'MOS', "xxx", @OBJS, "--Rel=xxx.rel", "--BinaryImage" );`
		6099
		6100	`* JATS release`
		6101	`Correct the operation of the -path option under Unix`
		6102
		6103	`* JATS extract`
		6104	`New JATS command. This is the same as 'jats release -extract'`
		6105
		6106	`* JATS Toolset`
		6107	`Added support for the WinCe PSION (WCEPSION_420)`
		6108	`This is a armv4i device using 4.20 of the WCE SDK`
		6109
		6110
		6111	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6112	`Version: JATS_2.62.1 Released: 18-Jan-07`
		6113	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6114	`Major changes:`
		6115
		6116	`Minor changes:`
		6117	`* jats label`
		6118	`Added a -vob=name option`
		6119	`This allwos the label utility to create, lock, unlock, rename and delete`
		6120	`labels without the user actually being located within the VOB. This option`
		6121	`cannot be used in conjunction with operations that place labels on files.`
		6122	`It can only be used for operations that manipulate the label.`
		6123
		6124	`Added a -user=name option`
		6125	`This extends the operation of the -mine operation to change ownership of the`
		6126	`label to the named user.`
		6127
		6128	`* jats release`
		6129	`Displays the path to the view and the build file in a user friendly manner`
		6130	`Under Windows it uses \, unless running under cygwin.`
		6131
		6132	`* JATS build.pl`
		6133	`BuildProduct supports the --Uses=xxxx construct on a per-target basis.`
		6134	`ie:`
		6135	`BuildProduct ('TP5', 'LMOS_TP5600_EMU', 'LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI,--Uses=TP5600_ARM9TDMI');`
		6136

		6138	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6139	`Version: JATS_2.62.0 Released: 22-Dec-06`
		6140	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6141	`Major changes:`
		6142	`* GenerateFiles and RunTest directives`
		6143	`These directives have been extended to allow a large number of makefile`
		6144	`values to be added to the command lines,without resorting to knowledge of`
		6145	`the makefile internals. ie:`
		6146	`--Var(BuildName)`
		6147	`will be expanded to (hen building MyPackage)`
		6148	`-BuildName=MyPackage`
		6149
		6150	`The complete list of Variables is provided in the JATS manual.`
		6151
		6152	`* GenerateFiles`
		6153	`Added a --Clean option to allow tools to be invoked in the 'clean' phase`
		6154	`This allows external scripts to cleanup.`
		6155
		6156	`* BuildPlatforms`
		6157	`Restored operation of the --Uses option`
		6158
		6159	`Minor changes:`
		6160	`* GCC Toolset`
		6161	`Exports path to compiler. Used by scripts to build packages`
		6162
		6163	`Internal changes:`
		6164	`* GenerateFiles`
		6165	`Maintains the arguments in an array for simpler processing.`
		6166
		6167	`--Shell is now processed by the 'make' shell rather then invoking an`
		6168	`external shell. It will be the same shell, just easier to setup.`
		6169
		6170
		6171	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6172	`Version: JATS_2.61.3 Released: 14-Dec-06`
		6173	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6174	`Major changes:`
		6175	`* Caching JATS`
		6176	`Added a mechanism whereby JATS can cache a copy of itself on the users local`
		6177	`drive. This is applicable to windows.`
		6178
		6179	`This mechanism will allow a user to address JATS via the soft-links in`
		6180	`dpkg_archive and pick up the current version of JATS without the penalty of`
		6181	`then using JATS across a slow(network) link.`
		6182
		6183	`The EnvVar GBE_CACHE_JATS controls the operation of this feature.`
		6184	`Set GBE_CACHE_JATS to one to enable the operation, but it will only be`
		6185	`effective if JATS is being run from GBE_DPKG in the first place.`
		6186
		6187	`Use: Build Machines and Windows Users`
		6188
		6189	`Minor changes:`
		6190	`* Build directive: BuildAlias with --Target option`
		6191	`Corrected a problem when the target name is a expanded platform name (ie:`
		6192	`TP5600) that prevent correct expansion.`
		6193
		6194	`* jats build`
		6195	`If the user has not configured a cache, then do not attempt to cache`
		6196	`packages. This will remove an annoying warning message for each package`
		6197	`processed by the build.`
		6198
		6199	`* jats build`
		6200	`Modified the error messages generated when JATS fails to create the`
		6201	`makefiles. The previous system would report failures while creating`
		6202	`makefiles and, at the end of the process, it would generate a large error`
		6203	`message to indicate the failure. This large message diverted the users`
		6204	`from reading the other error messages resulting in confusion.`
		6205
		6206	`* PackageFile, PackageLib, PackageProg and PackageHdr`
		6207	`Detect and report as an error use of the --Dir=<Path> option where the`
		6208	`Path is not specified.`
		6209
		6210	`Most instances of this error will be where the option has been mis-used in`
		6211	`conjunction with a package.pl file, or during transition from using a`
		6212	`package.pl file. That change is detects errors where the user has specified`
		6213	`--Dir=$Pinc`
		6214	`but $Pinc is not defined.`
		6215
		6216	`* Purify and Purecov under Windows`
		6217	`Changes to correct the operation of Rational's tools when used on the`
		6218	`Windows platform.`
		6219
		6220	`- OPTIONS=purecov`
		6221	`Forces the link operations to generate the relocation table required`
		6222	`by 'purecov.`
		6223
		6224	`Does not attempt to use purecov in the compiler tool chain`
		6225	`This is required under Solaris, but not Windows`
		6226
		6227	`- OPTIONS=purify`
		6228	`Does not attempt to use purecov in the compiler tool chain`
		6229	`This is required under Solaris, but not Windows.`
		6230	`Under WIndows this option does nothing.`

		6236	`Major changes:`
		6237	`* makefile.pl directive Platform`
		6238	`This directive has been expanded to allow for the negation operation`
		6239	`Example:`
		6240	`Platform ('!MOSCF');`
		6241	`Process makefile for all targets other than MOSCF`
		6242	`This is the same as Platform ('*', '!MOSCF');`
		6243
		6244	`Excluded platform will be processed after included platforms have`
		6245	`been determined.`
		6246
		6247	`Minor changes:`
		6248	`* Added the ScanList directive.`
		6249	`This directive allows a list of files within an external package to be`
		6250	`located at build-time.`
		6251
		6252	`* Unix based systems`
		6253	`If the EnvVar LD_LIBRARY_PATH was undefined, then a warning would be`
		6254	`generated by make under some conditions. The warning has been removed.`
		6255
		6256	`* MakeLinuxDriver`
		6257	`Added a --Define=text option to allow "defines" to be passed to the`
		6258	`driver being built.`

		6289
		6290	`GenerateFiles.`
		6291	`Added option: --NoGenerate to indicate that the directive does`

		6304	`Globally within the makefile.pl, or if applied in the common makefile.pl`
		6305	`the option can apply to all programs being built.`
		6306
		6307	`CompileOptions ( 'platform', 'StaticProgs' ); - Generate static programs`

		6358	`This is an attempt to solve a infrequent problem seen when multiple builds`
		6359	`are being performed. The 68k compiler already had a similar fix to address a`
		6360	`similar, but more pronounced, issue.`
		6361
		6362	`* Atmel toolset (DEVI-031788)`
		6363	`New Products: AT90SC7272C and AT90SC3232CS`

		6458
		6459	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6460	`Version: JATS_2.56.2 Released: 28-Aug-06`
		6461	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6462	`Major changes:`
		6463
		6464	`Minor changes:`
		6465	`* WIN32 and WINCE toolsets`
		6466	`SharedLib operation. Added an option to allow the creation of a 'stub'`
		6467	`library without creating the body of the library:`
		6468	`eg: SharedLib ( 'WIN', 'MyStub' , '--Def=windef.def','--MutualDll','--Stubonly' );`
		6469
		6470

		6488	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6489	`Version: JATS_2.56.1 Released: 23-Aug-06`
		6490	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6491	`Major changes:`
		6492	`* Support for SOLARIS10_X86 and SOLARIS10_X64`
		6493	`Initial release.`
		6494

		6496
		6497
		6498	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6499	`Version: JATS_2.56.0 Released: 18-Aug-06`
		6500	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6501	`Major changes:`
		6502	`* Support for SOLARIS10_sparc32 and SOLARIS10_sparc64`
		6503	`Initial release.`
		6504
		6505	`* Packaging directives`
		6506	`Added option --OsCommon to allow files and header files to be packed into`
		6507	`a directory known to all platforms being built for a common OS.`
		6508
		6509	`Currently this is only supported to target platforms based on`
		6510	`SOLARIS`
		6511	`WIN32`
		6512
		6513	`* Removal of support for badly formed packages`
		6514	`As of this release libraries that exist in the <packagename>/lib directory`
		6515	`will not be available to JATS. These libraries are in the incorrect`
		6516	`directory. They MUST be in a directory that indicates the intended purpose`
		6517	`of the library. A .so library cannot be used on all machines ( linux,`
		6518	`solaris-sparc, solaris-amd ... ).`
		6519
		6520	`* Build Platform target name expansion facility`
		6521	`The build targets of SOLARIS and LINUX are seen as expandable names. They`
		6522	`will be expanded to suitable targets - depending on the host machine .`
		6523
		6524
		6525	`Minor changes:`
		6526	`* Utility: JATS LABEL`
		6527	`Ensure that the 'cleartool' utility can be found in the users path.`
		6528	`Generate a suitable error message if it cannot be found.`
		6529
		6530	`* Utility: JATS RELEASE`
		6531	`Added a -root=dirname to allow the user to place the created view at a given`
		6532	`location`
		6533
		6534	`Added GBE_VIEWBASE to provide a globally configured mechanism for`
		6535	`controlling the view location. Performs the same job as -root=xxxx`
		6536
		6537	`* Utility genrc`
		6538	`Added the company name to the copyright string`
		6539
		6540	`* Utility: jats_save_build`
		6541	`Added option: -new`
		6542	`This option forces the saved file only a new branch.`
		6543	`The option can be used to save a build.pl file onto a new project-specific`
		6544	`branch. Useful when branching an entire release.`
		6545
		6546	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6547	`Added options to allow project suffixes to be replaced.`
		6548	`Use: Convert a .syd project to a .bej project.`
		6549
		6550	`* Deprecated features: package.pl and tree.dir`
		6551	`These two build features are being deprecated. They are not suitable for`
		6552	`migration to other SOLARIS based platforms.`
		6553
		6554	`The Package directives provide sufficient power to replace the package.pl`
		6555	`features - in a uniform manner.`
		6556
		6557
		6558	`Internal Changes:`
		6559	`* Major rework of the JATS BuildPlatform, BuildAlias an BuildProducts`
		6560	`directives, together with the mechanism used to describe the platform builds.`
		6561
		6562	`Introduced a CFG/<PLATFORM>.CFG file to provide:`
		6563	`1) Platform information available at build time`
		6564	`2) Dynamic platform names`
		6565
		6566	`* Major rework of the 'SOLARIS' platform`
		6567	`The SOLARIS platform will generate one or more targets, depending on the`
		6568	`machine on which the platform is invoked.`
		6569
		6570	`Consolidated a number of SOLARIS specific kludges and converted them into`
		6571	`configurable items. These kludges are really on applicable to the`
		6572	`SOLARIS8_SPARC32 platform. New SOLARIS builds will be well formed.`
		6573
		6574	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6575	`Formalized a number of kludges in operation of the SOLARIS8 under sparc32`
		6576	`platform. These are configured early in the build process and are no longer`
		6577	`needed.`
		6578
		6579	`A side effect of this work is that files from external packages may be`
		6580	`located in 'SOLARIS', 'SOLARIS_sparc' or 'sparc' directories. The change`
		6581	`should be transparent as the consumer tools should be able to handle`
		6582	`files from all of these.`

		6594	`Version: JATS_2.55.0 Released: 3-Aug-06`
		6595	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6596	`Major changes:`
		6597	`* Jats wrapper: Specify version of JATS to be used`
		6598	`Added a -version=xxxx option to force JATS to use a specific version of`
		6599	`JATS. The same operation can be achieved by setting GBE_JATS_VERSION.`
		6600
		6601	`The required version MUST be found in one of the known archives.`
		6602
		6603	`JATS will attempt to cache the version of JATS to assist in speeding up`
		6604	`the operations.`
		6605
		6606	`The version option MUST be the first option.`
		6607
		6608	`The version option MUST be followed by a '--' option.`
		6609	`This prevents JATS parsing other options and recursion issues.`
		6610
		6611	`Example: jats -version=2.54.3.cr -- build`
		6612
		6613	`* Migrated the "jats install" functionality out of the jats wrapper script`
		6614	`and into the create_dpkg utility. This is transparent to the user.`
		6615
		6616	`* Utility: create_dpkg`
		6617	`Added a '-quiet' option to allow use within scripts`
		6618	`Extended the built-in help`
		6619	`Added useful error messages`
		6620	`Migrate code to a common error reporting mechanism`
		6621
		6622	`* WinCE toolset`
		6623	`Added support for the WCEPA962 target.`
		6624
		6625	`* M16 toolset as used in building MCRFirmware`
		6626	`Added a --MotOnly option to the Prog directives. MOT files`
		6627	`are used in the creation of bootstraps.`
		6628
		6629	`Minor changes:`
		6630	`* JATS wrapper script`
		6631	`Added a -ABT=xxx option to allow the Auto Build Tool to be invoked from`
		6632	`the command line.`
		6633
		6634	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6635	`Modified so that it will display changes. These will then be present in the`
		6636	`ABT log so that a developer can see which packages have been rippled.`
		6637
		6638	`Internal Changes:`
		6639	`* Common Error Reporting`
		6640	`Will use environment variables to control DEBUG and VERBOSE levels`
		6641	`for individual users. A module reporting with a name of XXXX will use EnvVars`
		6642	`of GBE_XXXX_VERBOSE and GBE_XXXX_DEBUG to control the debug and VERBOSE`
		6643	`level.`
		6644
		6645	`Force flushing after a "Question" is asked to ensure that the prompt is`
		6646	`displayed.`
		6647
		6648	`Enable autoflush for both STDOUT and STDERR.`
		6649
		6650	`* Added JatsSystem module`
		6651	`Common code for accessing system commands`
		6652	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`

		6660	`.def files to include other files.`
		6661
		6662	`* IAR toolset`
		6663	`Added AT7272 support`
		6664
		6665	`* Tool: jats_manifest`
		6666	`Added links to a suitable md5sum program on target platforms`

		6675	`Corrected a problem in flagging that the non-version-1 compiler was in`
		6676	`use.`
		6677
		6678

		6682	`Major changes:`
		6683
		6684	`Minor changes:`

		6686	`Assembler files. Define DEBUG in debug builds and NDEBUG in production`
		6687	`builds.`
		6688
		6689	`* JATS Core`
		6690	`Added GBE_ABT. This is used by the Auto Build Tool to indicate that an`
		6691	`auto build is in progress. It may be used by various tools to modify their`
		6692	`behaviour.`
		6693
		6694	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6695	`Version: JATS_2.54.0 Released: 22-Jun-06`
		6696	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6697	`Major changes:`
		6698	`* Removal of non-core deployment functionality from JATS.`
		6699	`Deployment package will be affected.`
		6700
		6701	`The build.pl file of deployment package will need to import deployment`
		6702	`support with a BuildPkgArchive directive. ie:`
		6703
		6704	`BuildPkgArchive ( 'deployfiles', '1.0.0.cr' );`
		6705
		6706	`This version of deployfiles contains the same functionality as that provided`
		6707	`by the previous version of JATS. Version 2 of this package will be the start`
		6708	`of a deployment system that will provide support for building InstallShield`
		6709	`packages.`
		6710
		6711	`* Deployment support utilities must be run under JATS`
		6712	`The environment required for the deployment support utilities is complex`
		6713	`and is provided by the JATS wrapper script.`
		6714
		6715	`This is a change in usage. Instead of running the program 'updatenodespec'`
		6716	`the user will need to run 'jats updatenodespec'`
		6717
		6718	`Minor changes:`
		6719	`* SubDir directive`
		6720	`Added a sanity test to detect the case when a 'SubDir' directive specifies`
		6721	`a directory from two different makefiles.`
		6722
		6723	`* Tools: Dependancy generator mkdepend`
		6724	`If an include file was referenced by a symbolic name, then the generated`
		6725	`dependancy information would be wrong for all but the first occurrence`
		6726	`of the file usage.`
		6727
		6728	`* New utility: jats_manifest`
		6729	`Used by the build system to generate and validate source files.`
		6730	`Beta Release: Windows only at the moment`
		6731
		6732	`* Unit tests under SOLARIS_sparc`
		6733	`The LD_LIBRARY_PATH has been modified to correctly pick up libraries`
		6734	`generated within the build and have been installed locally.`
		6735
		6736	`* Default behaviour of JATS the wrapper script`
		6737	`This has been changed. Previous unknown commands were passed to make.`
		6738	`In this release unknown comamnds will be treated a 'etool' commands and`
		6739	`will execute a JATS extended command.`
		6740
		6741
		6742	`Internal Changes:`
		6743	`* Code refactor`
		6744	`Created JatsEnv to encapsulate functionality that was multiply defined.`
		6745
		6746	`* Deployment utilities`
		6747	`The Perl module Ignorelist.pm and the .ccignore file`
		6748	`Changed the mechanism by which this module locates a .ccignore file.`
		6749	`The .ccignore file has been moved to the same directory as the module and`
		6750	`the module can locate the file.`
		6751
		6752	`Previously the module required an environment variable in order to locate`
		6753	`the file, which was in a fixed location anyway.`
		6754
		6755	`* JATS core`
		6756	`Removed the use of the environment variable PERLINC.`
		6757
		6758	`Better parsing of descpkg files.`
		6759
		6760	`* JATS core debugging: JatsError.pm`
		6761	`Allow control over the debug and verbose messages of specific programs`
		6762	`through the use of environment variables.`
		6763
		6764	`A program reporting errors as "name" can be controlled via environment`
		6765	`variables GBE_name_VERBOSE and GBE_name_DEBUG.`
		6766
		6767	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6768	`Modified the subdirectories transferred with this directive to include:`
		6769	`deployfiles - as used by the deployment system`
		6770	`tools/scripts - as used by perl based extensions`
		6771
		6772	`* Make environment`
		6773	`Extended the PERL5LIB path seen by perl programs executed under make to`
		6774	`include 'tools/script' directories that contain Perl Modules.`
		6775
		6776
		6777	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6778	`Version: JATS_2.53.2 Released: 13-Jun-06`
		6779	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6780	`Major changes:`
		6781	`* Deployment. GetMassInstId.rul (From George Christidis)`
		6782	`Added support for SILENT_MODE`
		6783
		6784
		6785	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6786	`Version: JATS_2.53.1 Released: Not release`
		6787	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6788
		6789	`Not Released.`
		6790	`This label waas used as a place keeper. This version was not used as a basis`
		6791	`for JATS_2.53.2. Its much closer to JATS_2.54.0.`
		6792
		6793
		6794	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6795	`Version: JATS_2.53.0 Released: 11-Apr-06`
		6796	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6797	`Major changes:`
		6798	`* Deployment Scripts: Release Manager Database Access`
		6799	`The mechanism for communicating with the Release Manager Database has been`
		6800	`radically replaced.`
		6801
		6802	`A test tool has been added to prove connectivity to Release Manager.`
		6803	`Usage:`
		6804	`jats etool test_rmconnection`
		6805
		6806	`The pervious scripts used DBI::ODBC to communicate with the Oracle`
		6807	`Database that contains Release Manager. There were a number of problems with`
		6808	`this solution:`
		6809	`- Required the installation of two Perl Modules`
		6810	`- Required the installation of an Oracle client`
		6811	`- Required the use of an ODBC bridge machine when used on Solaris`
		6812	`- Support for Perl within Oracle appears to be on the decline`
		6813
		6814	`The solutions uses a Java application and Java's jdbc. The oracle:thin`
		6815	`client is used as this does not require any installation or configuration in`
		6816	`order to work.`
		6817
		6818	`JATS overrides Perl's DBI package with a package of the same name, but`
		6819	`reduced functionality.`
		6820
		6821
		6822	`Minor changes:`
		6823	`* makefile.pl directive: SetValue`
		6824	`Added a '--' option to disable and enable parsing of options.`
		6825	`This allows a value with leading '--' to be set.`
		6826
		6827	`* makefile.pl directive: SetList`
		6828	`Added this directive to formalise the creation and processing of lists`
		6829	`within the makefiles.`
		6830	`Options:`
		6831	`--NoWarn Disable name clash warnings`
		6832	`--Project=xxxx[,xxxx]+ Add to list in selected projects`
		6833	`--Unique Add only if not already present`
		6834	`--Clear Clear list, before adding new items`
		6835	`--Append Append items to list (default)`
		6836	`-- Disable/Enable option parsing`
		6837	`Useage:`
		6838
		6839	`SetList ('*', 'LibList', 'lib1', 'lib2', '--Project=syd');`
		6840	`SharedLib ('*', 'MyDLL', @OBJS, @LibList );`
		6841
		6842	`* Makefile.pl directive: RunTest`
		6843	`Corrected the option of the --CopyIn=file option where the specified file`
		6844	`is not in the current directory.`
		6845
		6846	`* Jats Command: ant'`
		6847	`This command has been extended to make use of the -buildfile=xxxx option`
		6848	`to allow multiple buildfiles to be differentiated.`
		6849
		6850	`eg: jats -buildfile=MyPackage ant`
		6851
		6852	`* TOOLSET: DAFBR Compiler support`
		6853	`Modified the toolset to support an optimisation feature of the next`
		6854	`generation of the daf_br_compiler. These will be enabled if the major version`
		6855	`of the package containing the compiler is greater the "1". ie: 2.0.0.cr`
		6856
		6857	`* Interface helper files: set_XXXX.bat/.sh`
		6858	`Added provision to process user command arguments.`
		6859	`Thus`
		6860
		6861	`set_WIN32.bat prog`
		6862
		6863	`will set the WIN32 environment and run the command: prog`
		6864
		6865
		6866	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6867	`Version: JATS_2.52.2 Released: 30-Mar-06`
		6868	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6869	`Major changes:`
		6870
		6871	`Minor changes:`
		6872	`* Addressed issue with BUILDNAME, an internal variable.`
		6873	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user build.pl's they need to be`
		6874	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a project`
		6875	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		6876	`$(BUILDNAME) contains two or three space seperated fields - always`
		6877
		6878	`* m16c Toolset - MCRFirmware`
		6879	`Force the generation of .thx and payload files when the .bin files are`
		6880	`created. Previously this only occured in the packaging phase.`
		6881
		6882	`Internal changes:`
		6883	`* JATS toolsets`
		6884	`Added a feature to allow a toolset to flag additional files that get created`
		6885	`as a part of a "Prog". This allows a "Prog" definition to generate a`
		6886	`number of files, some which may be packaged.`
		6887
		6888	`Previously such files where only generated during the packaging phase. Now`
		6889	`they will be generated during the make_prog phase - with the other programs.`
		6890
		6891	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6892	`Version: JATS_2.52.1 Released: 29-Mar-06`
		6893	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6894	`Major changes:`
		6895	`* Jats command: etool`
		6896	`Extended to allow execution of deployment tools. This allows the deployment`
		6897	`tools to use the JATS core perl modules.`
		6898
		6899	`* Address issues with the use of BUILDVER and ScmBuildVer`
		6900	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user makefile.pl's they need to be`
		6901	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a projectt`
		6902	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		6903	`$(BUILDVERSION) contains the project extension - always`
		6904	`$ScmBuildVersion does not contain a project extension - always`
		6905
		6906	`Minor changes:`
		6907
		6908
		6909	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6910	`Version: JATS_2.52.0 Released: 27-Mar-06`
		6911	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6912	`Major changes:`
		6913	`* JATS environment variables`
		6914	`Added GBE_DPKG_STORE`
		6915	`Optionally addresses a dpkg_archive store. This is intended to allow`
		6916	`read only access to a remote repository. The GBE_DPKG_STORE will be`
		6917	`searched after GBE_DPKG. It will be searched last. JATS, be default,`
		6918	`will not publish packages in this repository.`
		6919
		6920	`Uses: Seed repository for a complete build`
		6921	`Remote repository`
		6922
		6923	`Added GBE_DPLY`
		6924	`Optionally addresses a Deployment Archive. This is only used in the`
		6925	`placement of deployment packages. This value may be project specific.`
		6926
		6927	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		6928	`Changes the mechanism used to link against the compiler RTL.`
		6929	`Previously the RTL was included multiple times in the link order. This`
		6930	`created problem with daf_dsi as the function 'time()' was being satisfied by`
		6931	`the RTL before being satisfied by the user libraries.`
		6932
		6933	`The compiler RTL is now treated as a library of last resort. It will be`
		6934	`processed once and it will be processed last.`
		6935
		6936
		6937	`Minor changes:`
		6938	`* JATS utility: build`
		6939	`* JATS utility: cache_dpkg`
		6940	`Extended the package search algorithm to locate a package within`
		6941	`GBE_DPKG_STORE. This archive will be searched last.`
		6942
		6943	`* JATS utility: gen_cots`
		6944	`Ensure label is not locked`
		6945	`Add option to allow user to specify source directory other than a package`
		6946	`that already exists in dpkg_archive.`
		6947
		6948	`* JATS directive: PackageFile`
		6949	`Now supports --Prod and --Debug options to limit the packaging process`
		6950	`to a specific type of build.`
		6951
		6952	`* JATS directive: GenerateFiles and RunTests`
		6953	`Added a --PackageInfo() replacement tag to allow package version information`
		6954	`to be extracted and passed to generator programs.`
		6955	`ie: --PackageInfo(sysbasetypes,syd,--fullversion)`
		6956
		6957	`Extended the --PackageBase() replacement tag to work with packages such as`
		6958	`sysbasetypes, where there is a .cr and a .syd type.`
		6959	`ie: --PackageBase(sysbasetypes,syd)`
		6960
		6961	`* JATS utility: release`
		6962	`Under windows, ensure that the directory C:\Clearcase exists. There have`
		6963	`been installations of Clearcase where this is directory does not exist.`
		6964
		6965	`* JATS utility: label`
		6966	`Added option: "-comment=Text" to allow a comment to be added to a label,`
		6967	`when it is being created.`
		6968
		6969	`Internal Changes`
		6970	`* JATS utility: create_dpkg`
		6971	`Refactored code to use JATS DescPkg class.`
		6972
		6973	`Added options to allow packaging to the various archives. This is of no use`
		6974	`to the normal developer, but will be used within the complete build system.`
		6975
		6976	`* Factored out the parsing of the BuildName directive`
		6977	`This process was being done in 3 locations - and there were getting`
		6978	`different results.`
		6979
		6980	`* ToolsetRequire directive`
		6981	`This has been extended to allow JATS to locate Toolset extensions within`
		6982	`packages. They should be placed within the tool/scripts directory`
		6983
		6984	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6985	`Version: JATS_2.51.0 Released: 15-Mar-06`
		6986	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6987	`Major changes:`

		6992	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6993	`Version: JATS_2.50.0 Released: 15-Feb-06`
		6994	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6995	`Major changes:`
		6996	`* WIN32 utilities`
		6997	`Replaced a number of the Windows utilities ( cp, rm, mv ...)`
		6998	`with versions from the GNUWin32 project.`
		6999
		7000	`The 'cp' previously used could not recursively copy large directories`
		7001	`under Windows Server 2003, when both the source and destination are on the`
		7002	`same drive. ( dpkg_cache of ace ).`
		7003
		7004	`Minor changes:`
		7005	`* BuildVersion`
		7006	`The definition of VERSION_BUILD within the generated version-defs.h file`
		7007	`will have leading zeros removed, thus allowing it to be used within a 'C'`
		7008	`program without the number being interpreted as an octal constant.`
		7009
		7010	`The string form (VERSION_BUILD_STR) will retain the zeros.`
		7011
		7012	`* Unix Builds`
		7013	`Corrected several issues encountered when specifying the name of a static`
		7014	`library or a shared library.`
		7015
		7016	`JATS will prepend 'lib' to the user specified library name. Problems occurred`
		7017	`when the user specified a library name that started with 'lib'. Now, on Unix`
		7018	`systems, JATS will only prepend 'lib' if the library name does not already`
		7019	`start with 'lib'.`
		7020
		7021	`* BuildPkgArchive`
		7022	`Since 2.45.0 JATS will only transfer files for the BuildPkgArchive, if`
		7023	`they have not already been transferred. Added a test for the source`
		7024	`package being updated and then forceing the copy to be repeated.`
		7025
		7026	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7027	`Version: JATS_2.49.0 Released: 10-Feb-06`
		7028	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7029	`Major changes:`
		7030	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		7031	`Corrected a problem with the dependencies between a .REL file and the target`
		7032	`THX file. If the .REL files was modified the output THX file did not get`
		7033	`regenerated. This was only a problem in cases where the .REL file was`
		7034	`being manually maintained.`
		7035
		7036
		7037	`Minor changes:`
		7038	`* MakeAnt directive`
		7039	`Introduced a check to ensure that this directive is only used with a toolset`
		7040	`that can handle an 'ant' build file. Currently only the JAVA toolset`
		7041	`supports ANT builds.`
		7042
		7043	`* BuildPkgArchive directive`
		7044	`Correct problem in the caching of BuildPkgArchive packages in the case where`
		7045	`there is no GBE_DPKG_LOCAL on the machine.`
		7046
		7047	`* Label utility`
		7048	`Added a 'files=filename,filename' option to allow only specified`
		7049	`files to be labeled.`
		7050
		7051	`* Build. Parsing descpkg files`
		7052	`Corrected problem in which Java Manifest files were not parsed correctly`
		7053	`on Solaris.`
		7054
		7055	`* Generated makefiles`
		7056	`Fix a bug with the CompilerOptions that allowed a '0' definition to be set to`
		7057	`nothing.`
		7058
		7059	`* MOS Toolset`
		7060	`Added 'CompileOptions' of CcSupervisor.`
		7061	`This will set a MOS internal definition suitable for building specialised`
		7062	`modules.`
		7063
		7064	`* Utility: gen_cots`
		7065	`This utility will create a JATS buildable package froma dpkg_archive entry`
		7066	`and then check it in under clearcase.`
		7067
		7068	`JATS etool gen_cots -man will provide only help.`
		7069
		7070	`* Utilty cache_dpkg`
		7071	`Detect and repair incomplete copy operations.`

		7074	`Version: JATS_2.48.0 Released: 24-Jan-06`
		7075	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7076	`Major changes:`
		7077	`None`
		7078
		7079	`Minor changes:`
		7080	`* DEVI addressed`
		7081	`DEVI-022055 JATS builds DLLs with wrong copyright symbol in version resource`
5710	dpurdie	7082	`DEVI-022054 JATS puts "VIX Group test" in Product Name of Windows resource`
227	dpurdie	7083
		7084	`* Utility: release (cbuild)`
		7085	`Added an option to create a view configured to work with a branching`
		7086	`rule. A single branch can be named with the -branch option. eg:`
		7087
		7088	`jats release -extract 'label' -branch SITS_LEGACY_BRANCH`
		7089
		7090	`will create a view based on the named label, but suitable for creating`
		7091	`a patch for Sydney Legacy work.`
		7092
		7093	`* RunTest directive`
		7094	`The 'PATH' that the test uses is extended to allow access to programs that have`
		7095	`been installed with a InstallProg directive. This allows a test script to`
		7096	`test a program that is generated elsewhere within the package.`
		7097
		7098	`* PackageFile, Option --DirTree`
		7099	`Support for filenames that contain a "$" or a ' ' within the`
		7100	`--DirTree option. Implemented to allow entire JAVA class trees to be`
		7101	`packaged under JATS`
		7102
		7103	`Note: In general the use of a $ and space within a filename is not`
		7104	`supported within JATS.`
		7105
		7106	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7107	`Added an eprog option. The allows any program to be run within the`
		7108	`sanitized environment provided by JATS.`
		7109
		7110	`The specified program may be in the current directory or the user's`
		7111	`PATH. If the program is a perl script then it will be run with the`
		7112	`JATS perl interpreter, otherwise it will be processed by the system.`
		7113
		7114	`Eg: jats eprog myscript arg1 arg2`
		7115	`Eg: jats ant`
		7116
		7117	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7118	`Added an 'ant' command. ( "jats ant" )`
		7119
5710	dpurdie	7120	`This will run an VIX ANT build by scanning the current directory for a file`
227	dpurdie	7121	`called <ProjectName>depends.xml and then looking the a file called`
		7122	`<ProjectName>.xml. Jats will then create 'auto.xml' based on the`
		7123	`<ProjectName>depends.xml file and use ant to invoke the`
		7124	`<ProjectName>.xml file.`
		7125
5710	dpurdie	7126	`If the VIX build files cannot be found then ant is simply run and it will`
227	dpurdie	7127	`expect a build.pl file.`
		7128
		7129	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7130	`Force the environment variable PERL5INC to be unset.`
		7131
		7132	`* Jats utility: create_dpkg`
		7133	`Simplify handling of ANT based projects. Look for the package within`
		7134	`the build/pkg subdirectory, in the JANTS style.`
		7135
		7136	`* Utility: gen_winrc (DEVI-022054)`
		7137	`Added a "'-product=text'" option to allow the product name to be specified.`
		7138
		7139	`* Build files`
		7140	`Handle the java generated descpkg files. These are a Manifest format with`
5710	dpurdie	7141	`VIX extensions.`
227	dpurdie	7142

		7144	`Version: JATS_2.47.0 Released: 20-Dec-05`
		7145	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7146	`Major changes:`
		7147	`* BuildVersion directive in build.pl`
		7148	`Correct a problem in the generation of version.c`
		7149	`The function GetModuleInfo() would return a string with a trailing`
		7150	`space when the 'array' mode was selected.`
		7151
		7152	`This may cause module validation to fail.`
		7153
		7154	`Minor changes:`
		7155	`* None`
		7156
		7157	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7158	`Version: JATS_2.46.0 Released: 08-Dec-05`
		7159	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7160	`Major changes:`
		7161	`* BuildProduct and BuildPlatforms directives`
		7162	`Added option --Uses=NAME`
		7163	`ie:`
		7164	`BuildProduct ( 'OBFTP,--Uses=TP5', 'MOSCF' );`
		7165
		7166	`This will create a OBFTP_MOSCF platform that will 'use' TP5`
		7167	`headers and libraries if none are specifically provided for the`
		7168	`OBFTP. It is the users responsibily to ensure that the two build`
		7169	`environments are compatible.`
		7170
		7171
		7172	`Minor changes:`
		7173	`* BuildName option`
		7174	`Modifications to allow the creation of COTS packages with buildnames`
5710	dpurdie	7175	`that do not confirm to the VIX naming scheme (--RelaxedVersion).`
227	dpurdie	7176
		7177	`* jats.bat`
		7178	`Ensure that GBE_BIN is not defined`

		7182	`Version: JATS_2.45.0 Released: 29-Nov-05`
		7183	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7184	`Major changes:`
		7185	`* BuildPkgArchive directive`
		7186	`The operation of the BuildPkgArchive directive has been modified`
		7187	`so that a package will only be installed once. This significantly`
		7188	`speeds up multiple 'build' operations.`
		7189
		7190	`If the package is being extracted from the 'local archive', then`
		7191	`this mechanism is suppressed as packages in the local archive are`
		7192	`considered as under development and are subject to change.`
		7193
		7194	`If package cache is being refreshed, then the package will be`
		7195	`installed a second time. Thus it is possible to force the package to`
		7196	`be transferred into the 'interface' directory.`
		7197
		7198	`A BuildTags directory is used to track packages that have been`
		7199	`transferred.`
		7200
		7201	`* Internal changes to factor common code into a group of packages.`
		7202	`See notes below.`
		7203
		7204	`* WIN32 toolset`
		7205	`Allow the Microsoft preprocessor directive #import to operate`
		7206	`correctly.`
		7207
		7208	`Export the complete library search path into the build environment`
		7209	`for all Microsoft command, not just the linker and library commands.`
		7210
		7211	`* BuildVersion`
		7212	`Modifications to allow the generation of version files for C#`
		7213	`The mechanism has been extended to allow version information for`
		7214	`other langauges as needed.`
		7215
		7216
		7217	`Minor changes:`
		7218	`* Utility: gen_winrc.pl`
		7219	`Will extracted build number from the patch number, if present.`
		7220	`This information will be available to be placed into the generation`
		7221	`version strings.`
		7222
		7223	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		7224	`Fixed a problem detecting programs that were not in the local`
		7225	`package or an imported package.`
		7226
		7227	`* Toolsets: MOS_MRI`
		7228	`Generate an error if required tools are not found.`
		7229	`Previously this condition would generate a warning.`
		7230
		7231	`* BuildPkgArchive and LinkPkgArchive directives`
		7232	`Ensure that packages are only included once. The previous check`
		7233	`was half-hearted and could allow multiple packages of the same`
		7234	`version to be included. This could result in badly formed`
		7235	`makefiles and strange error messages.`
		7236
		7237	`Internal Changes`
		7238	`* Started to factor out internal packages and place them into a common`
		7239	`directory. This will allow common error handling thoughout the suite`
		7240	`of utilities.`
		7241
		7242	`Modified all utilities to utilize the common error reporting`
		7243	`functions.`
		7244
		7245	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7246	`Version: JATS_2.44.0 Released: 18-Nov-05`
		7247	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7248	`Major changes:`
		7249	`* Generated makefiles`
		7250	`Modified the windows shell to remove the use of the EXTENDED_LINE`
		7251	`cache. This did not work. Modified the extend.lst file to ensure`
		7252	`that sed did not process its arguments.`
		7253
		7254	`This has been done to address a problem seen within test scripts`
		7255	`within unit tests that use wildcard expansion. The windows shell was`
		7256	`incorrectly processing:`
		7257	`sed '-es~.*WIN32~~'`
		7258	`The '.*' construct was being seen as a wildcard and the shell was`
		7259	`then putting the argument into a command file - it was totally`
		7260	`confused.`
		7261
		7262	`NOTE: Attempted to remove use of EXTENDED_LINE, but this caused a`
		7263	`breakage with the DOS based gcc compiler( ie:H8S and others).`
		7264	`The construct`
		7265	`-D__SOURCE__=\"name\"`
		7266	`was corrupted somewhere. If the command is put in a command file,`
		7267	`then it works.`
		7268
		7269	`* MakeAnt directive`
		7270	`Added option: --GeneratedFile=PathOfFile`
		7271
		7272	`This option has the following effects`
		7273	`1) Marks the file a source file. It is then known to JATS and`
		7274	`can be used installed and manipulated.`
		7275
		7276	`2) Schedules the processing of the ANT build to be done`
		7277	`early - in the generated files phase.`
		7278
		7279	`Intended use. The creation of packages with a JNI. The Java`
		7280	`component needs to generate a header file early.`
		7281
		7282
		7283	`Minor changes:`
		7284	`* JATS post-installation script`
		7285	`Flag deployment tools and libraries as executable.`
		7286
		7287	`* Detection of extension type is case insensitive for non-unix`
		7288	`systems. Thus .h and .H files will considered header files in`
		7289	`windows.`
		7290
		7291	`* Build.pl rewrite tool`
		7292	`Handle all variants of BuildName`
		7293
		7294	`* Jats wrapper script`
		7295	`Generate an error if the JATS configuration variables are not usable`
		7296	`1) Contain spaces`
		7297	`2) Start with a // - Remote drives must be mapped`
		7298
		7299	`* Toolset`
		7300	`Added a 'LINUX' platform.`
		7301
		7302	`* JAVA toolset`
		7303	`Ensure the that build file passed via MakeAnt contains the following`
		7304	`directive:`
		7305
		7306	`includeAntRuntime="off"'`
		7307
		7308	`This MUST be used to ensure that ANT's classpath is not passed to`
		7309	`the java compiler thus ensuring that the compiler does not use ANT's`
		7310	`version of any JAR files that have not been specified by the user.`
		7311
		7312	`* GCC Toolset`
		7313	`Use -Map name to create map files as needed for GCC under Debian`
		7314
		7315	`* Makefile generation`
		7316	`When packages are used by name to resolve package location JATS`
		7317	`has been modified to use the package name specified by the user.`
		7318	`Previously JATS would use the package name found within the`
		7319	`descpkg file. In cases where the descpkg file was badly formed the`
		7320	`package could not be used.`
		7321
		7322	`* Unit Tests`
		7323	`The following environment variables are set:`
		7324
		7325	`GBE_TYPE - The type of build. Debug or production. This`
		7326	`will be set to either a 'P' or 'D'`
		7327
		7328	`GBE_HOST - The host machine we are running on.`
		7329	`This will be set to 'WIN' or Unix'`
		7330
		7331	`These variable should assist in the production of test scripts.`
		7332
		7333	`* New makefile.pl directive: SetValue`
		7334
		7335
		7336	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7337	`Version: JATS_2.43.0 Released: 01-Nov-05`
		7338	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7339	`Major changes:`
		7340	`* New Platform : "MCR" using the Mitsubishi m16c compiler.`
		7341
		7342	`Special features of this toolset.`
		7343	`1) A .THX source file will be converted to an obtect file`
		7344	`This allows processing of fonts within a THX file to be`
		7345	`incorporated within the target image.`
		7346
		7347	`2) Prog directive extensions:`
		7348	`--Set=Name=Value`
		7349	`The 'Name' is set to 'Value' at link time.`
		7350	`This allows the location of program segments to be set`
		7351
		7352	`--Ref=name`
		7353	`The name of a Release file. If provided, it will be used`
		7354	`to provide information that will be placed within the`
		7355	`THX header. The version number will be ignored. It`
		7356	`will be taken from the build version number.`
		7357
		7358	`Minor changes:`
		7359	`* MOS Toolset`
		7360	`Create the VisionClick files when the THX file is created.`
		7361	`Previously the files were created when the THX was installed or`
		7362	`packaged.`
		7363
		7364	`* Src directive`
		7365	`No generates a warning if no source files are located within the`
		7366	`directive. This is normally the result of a missing platform`
		7367	`specifier.`
		7368
		7369	`* WIN32 runtime support`
		7370	`Added the following 'Unix' style utilities to assist in testing.`
		7371	`1) od - dump files in octal and other formats`
		7372	`2) cmp - compare two files byte by byte`
		7373
		7374	`Internal:`
		7375	`Added an extension to allow the target toolset to handle the "Prog"`
		7376	`dependancy generation if required. This allow complex program`
		7377	`generation mechanisms to be handled by the toolset.`
		7378
		7379	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7380	`Version: JATS_2.42.0 Released: 19-Oct-05`
		7381	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7382	`Major changes:`
		7383	`* BuildAlias directive`
		7384	`Added options.`
		7385	`--Define - Does not create implicit platforms`
		7386	`--Target - Redeclares the alais as the list of all`
		7387	`platforms that are based on a given target or`
		7388	`targets.`
		7389	`Eg:`
		7390	`BuildAlias ( 'LMOS,--Target', 'LMOS_WIN32', 'LMOS_linux_armv4' );`
		7391	`BuildProduct ( 'GAK', 'LMOS', 'MOS68K', 'MOSCF' );`
		7392	`BuildProduct ( 'PCP', 'LMOS', 'MOS68K' );`
		7393
		7394	`Will export an alias of LMOS that can be used within makefile.pl's`
		7395	`that will be the list of all platforms that have a target of`
		7396	`'LMOS_WIN32' or 'LMOS_linux_armv4'.`
		7397
		7398	`Note the dual use of LMOS within the example. This is intentional.`
		7399	`The LMOS alias is used within the BuildProduct to simplify the`
		7400	`specification of all the LMOS targets.`
		7401
		7402
		7403	`Minor changes:`
		7404	`* Label utility`
		7405	`Will generate a warning message if it labels more than one`
		7406	`build.pl file`
		7407
		7408	`* Package directives. PackageFile.`
		7409	`Corrected a problem with wildcard expansion in which a --FilterIn`
		7410	`needed to be specified in order for the --FilterOut to operate.`
		7411	`Now all files in the tree are considered 'in' unless modified by the`
		7412	`--FilterIn option.`
		7413
		7414	`* jats release (cbuilder) utility`
		7415	`Correct use of the -prodOnly and -debugOnly flags.`
		7416	`The full name was not accepted; -debug and -prod was.`
		7417
		7418	`* Location of descpkg file`
		7419	`All makefile.pl's now know where the package descpkg file was`
		7420	`created. This simplifies the process og packaging this file as it`
		7421	`can be done within any makefile.pl.`
		7422
		7423	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7424	`Version: JATS_2.41.0 Released: 27-Sep-05`
		7425	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7426	`Major changes:`
		7427	`* RunTest directive`
		7428	`Extended the options and operation of RunTest`
		7429	`Additional options`
		7430	`--CopyIn=file`
		7431	`This will copy the specified file into the BIN directory before`
		7432	`the test is run. The file will be marked as executable. This`
		7433	`allows scripts and configuration files to be transferred into`
		7434	`the test area.`
		7435
		7436	`Additional operations`
		7437	`The arguments passed to the script/program allow a number of`
		7438	`transformations, similar to GenerateFiles. Transforms`
		7439	`--File(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a known file`
		7440	`--Local(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a file that has been Installed`
		7441	`--PackageBase(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a Package`
		7442	`Allows flags:`
		7443	`--dir - directory part of the pathname`
		7444	`--file - file part of the pathname`
		7445	`--abspath - as an absolute path`
		7446	`--absdrive - as an absolute path with drive letter (Windows)`
		7447
		7448	`Files and directories are prerequisites of the test. Their`
		7449	`existence is tested.`
		7450
		7451	`* Packaging Directives`
		7452	`Added a --Derived option to support the packaging of derived targets`
		7453	`such as LMOS.`
		7454
		7455	`PackageHdr ('*', 'file1.h', '--Derived=LMOS');`
		7456
		7457	`Will place file1.h into .../include/LMOS_WIN32`
		7458
		7459	`PackageHdr ('*', 'file1.h', '--Derived=LMOS,sys');`
		7460
		7461	`Will place file1.h into .../include/LMOS_WIN32/sys`
		7462
		7463	`* JAVA 1.4 and 1.5`
		7464	`Added support to the JATS JAVA platform to allow the user to specify`
		7465	`the version of Java to be used to build a package.`
		7466
		7467	`BuildPlatforms ( 'JAVA,--Version=1.5' );`
		7468
		7469	`The default will use the default machine version of JAVA.`
		7470	`This may not be sutable for all packages.`
		7471
		7472	`Non-default versions of JAVA require that an environment variable be`
		7473	`set to the root of the JDK directory. These are:`
		7474
		7475	`JAVA_HOME_1_4`
		7476	`JAVA_HOME_1_5`
		7477
		7478	`Minor changes:`
		7479	`* Script directive`
		7480	`Scripts may be copied into the BIN directory for use by a test.`
		7481	`These scripts are now always marked as executable.`
		7482
		7483	`* JATS environment`
		7484	`Ensure that all programs run under JATS in Windows have an uppercase`
		7485	`COMSPEC envvar. Windows appears to define a mixed case one. Fixed in`
		7486	`the JATS wrapper script.`
		7487
		7488	`* Label utility`
		7489	`Added -[no]checkout to control the labeling of checked out files.`
		7490	`There are three modes of operation:`
		7491	`1) -nocheckout Checked out files are not labeled`
		7492	`2) -checkout Only checked out files are labeled`
		7493	`3) Neither All files are labeled.`

		7504	`This options retains the locked state of a label.`
		7505
		7506	`* AVR_IAR toolset`
		7507	`Extended the 'Prog' directive to allow a Program Loader to be`
		7508	`added to a program as it is created. The option is:`
		7509	`--ProgLoader=name`
		7510
		7511	`* Package directives. PackageFile`
		7512	`Added support for packaging of directory trees.`
		7513	`Options to do this are:`
		7514	`--TreeDir=name`
		7515	`--FilterOut=regexp`
		7516	`--FilterIn=regexp`
		7517	`--StripDir`
		7518
		7519	`Only a single directory can be specified.`
		7520	`Multiple filters are allowed.`
		7521	`The directories must be within the current directory. It is not`
		7522	`possible to search outside the subdirectory tree below the makefile.`
		7523
		7524	`The filters allow elements within the directory to be selected.`
		7525	`The filters are regular expressions. Examples:`
		7526
		7527	`'--FilterIn=\.h$' - Select all files ending with .h`
		7528	`'--FilterOut=MyHeader.h' - Except this one`
		7529
		7530	`The --StripDir option will remove the TreeDir directory from the`
		7531	`files. This allows the top level directory to be stripped off.`
		7532
		7533
		7534	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7535	`Version: JATS_2.39.0 Released: 14-Sep-05`
		7536	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7537	`Major changes:`
		7538	`* Make commands`
		7539	`Consolidated the parsing of the OPTIONS arguments.`
		7540
		7541	`The filter and nofilter options are globally applied to all tools`
		7542	`sets. ie: jats make debug OPTIONS=nofilter`
		7543
		7544	`* Label utility`
		7545	`Generate a warning when attempting to label a symbolic link.`
		7546	`Links are very hard to maintain in a reproducible manner.`
		7547
		7548	`Minor changes:`

		7550	`Replaced the use of c:\WINDOWS and c:\Program Files with suitable`
		7551	`variables and overrides.`
		7552
		7553	`The make_init target is always run.`
		7554	`This facility had been lost. The target was being used to provide`
		7555	`compiler sanity testing, but had was not being reliably run.`
		7556
		7557	`* Deployment`
		7558	`Suppress testing of compiler existence when used in conjunction`
		7559	`with deployment operations.`
		7560
		7561	`* Release utility`
		7562	`Add options to build only the debug or the production versions.`
		7563	`The default is to build both. Note: User option may be further`
		7564	`restricted by options within the build.`
		7565
		7566	`* PackageLib, InstallLib and MergeLib directives in makefile.pl`
		7567	`The use of @LIBS and @MLIBS in unix systems was causing a`
		7568	`problem as these variables already had a 'lib' prepended to the`
		7569	`list of libraries. These directives would add another 'lib' to the`
		7570	`list of libraries under unix causing a mismatch.`
		7571
		7572	`Corrected by stripping liblib from the names within these`
		7573	`directives.`
		7574
		7575	`* MakeProject directive`
		7576	`If the project build fails the log file was not being displayed`
		7577	`because 'make' stops when a command fails.`
		7578
		7579	`The MakeProject operations have been modified to ensure that the`
		7580	`log file is always displayed. The exit code of the build command`
		7581	`is preserved.`
		7582
		7583	`* Auto build utility jats-rewrite.pl`
		7584	`Modified to support the rewrite of Java 'using' and 'project'`
		7585	`statements.`
		7586
		7587	`* Mugfile generation`
		7588	`Added a --ThxDir=xxxx option to allow the THX and load files to`
		7589	`be placed in the target package.`

		7601	`number.`
		7602
		7603	`Minor changes:`
		7604	`* AddFlags directives`
		7605	`Added a --NoWarn option that will suppress the warning of`
		7606	`duplicate flags being added.`
		7607
		7608	`* GBE_CORE environment variable (Windows)`
		7609	`Ensure that GBE_CORE has a driver letter. This allows use of JATS`
		7610	`loaded into the same dynamic view as the user code.`
		7611
		7612	`* Mug File Generation`
		7613	`Added support to allow load files to include other load files.`
		7614
		7615	`* 'cbuild' or 'release' command`
		7616	`Added a -latestroot=xxxx option. This is a work around for the`
		7617	`problem where the root level directory in the VOB has not been`
		7618	`labeled. After using this switch add the label to the root`
		7619	`directory.`
		7620
		7621	`The need to use this this switch indicates that the view is NOT`
		7622	`reproducible.`

		7627	`Major changes:`
		7628	`* jats.bat and jats.sh`
		7629	`Changes to include GBE_DPKG and GBE_DPKG_CACHE.`
		7630	`Most importantly GBE_DPKG must be a single directory. It is no`
		7631	`longer a list of directories.`
		7632
		7633	`Removal of the setup of Microsoft Visual Studio 6. This is now`
		7634	`done within the toolset.`
		7635
		7636	`*** Update your jats.bat to follow the format in this release`
		7637
		7638	`* JATS environment variables`
		7639	`Redefined variable`
		7640	`GBE_DPKG - Now the MASTER dpkg_archive`
		7641	`Previously was a list that included the`
		7642	`dpkg_archive cache.`
		7643
		7644	`New variable`
		7645	`GBE_DPKG_CACHE - Optional directory for a local cache of`

		7651	`Enhanced (thanks Ross) to allow PATH information for various`
		7652	`target platforms to be extracted.`
		7653
		7654	`Better support for Product families. This is only an issue`
		7655	`for WIN32 derived families due to the generation of a list of`
		7656	`libraries. The list now observes Product hierarchy.`
		7657
		7658	`* Utility: release (cbuilder)`
		7659	`Added -noruntests option too suppress the running of unit tests`
		7660	`Units tests will still be run by default.`
		7661
		7662	`Tighten the config specification used to build the sandbox. It has`

		7670	`structure.`
		7671
		7672	`* makefile.pl's`
		7673	`GenerateFiles directive. Added a --Prog specifier to allow tools`
		7674	`to be generated within the same script. Example:`
		7675
		7676	`Prog('*', 'Myprog', @OBJS );`
		7677	`GenerateFiles ('*', "--Prog=MyProg",`
		7678	`'--Prereq(infile)',`

		7680
		7681	`RunTest directive. Added a --Auto option to flags tests that can`
		7682	`be run within the Build Systems Auto Build environment. These`
		7683	`tests will be run with the 'run_unit_tests' target. All tests will`
		7684	`be run with the 'run_tests' targets. Only tests that confirm to`
5710	dpurdie	7685	`the VIX "Unit Test Automation" guidelines should be marked as`
227	dpurdie	7686	`-- Auto.`
		7687
		7688	`* Added a new make target: run_unit_tests`
		7689	`This will be used by the build tool to run non-interactive`
		7690	`unit tests within an automated framework.`
		7691
		7692	`* Make run_test and run_unit_test operation`
		7693	`The search path for DLL's or Shared Libraries is extended to`
		7694	`include all Shared Libraries in the build package list as well`
		7695	`as the local and interface directory. This allows tests to`
		7696	`locate required Shared Libraries at runtime.`
		7697
		7698	`* WIN32 targets built using Visual Studio 6`
		7699	`The path to the compiler is setup within JATS. It is no longer`
		7700	`imported from the users environment as the environment is`

		7722
		7723	`* UNIX Platforms (SOLARIS and LINUX)`
		7724	`Modification to allow BuildProduct and BuildPkgArchive to`

		7791	`* LinkPkgArchive and BuildPkgArchive`
		7792	`Processing soft links. Generate a warnings if a package soft`

		7861	`* Support for Windows DLLs`
		7862	`When building a WIN32 target the file interface/set_WIN32.bat is`

		7865
		7866	`The file may be "called" from a wrapper batch file to start the`
		7867	`application or visual studio.`

		7911	`force LinkPkgArchive directives to be interpreted as`

		7944	`with only a comma between the platforms: No whitespace`
		7945	`If whitespace did exist then the makefile.pl would not do what`

		7948
		7949	`* GenerateFiles directive within makefile.pl`
		7950	`Allow 3 different bracket styles for the arguments to allow for`
		7951	`embedded brackets. Now allow`

		7970	`to the package into the local_dpkg_archive. This can be used by`
		7971	`other components.`

		8001	`production.`
		8002

		8026	`The PDB files created when compiling objects for DLLs are now not`

		8171	`option. Where xxx can be one or more of: none stub map lint debug`
		8172	`or all.`
		8173
		8174	`This option may be used to limit the files that are packaged with`
		8175	`the library or program.`
		8176
		8177	`Eg: PackageLib ('MOS', 'MyThx', '--Extra=none' );`
		8178
		8179	`Will only package the .thx file. It will not package the stub`
		8180	`library or any debug files.`
		8181
		8182	`* GenerateFiles`
		8183	`All processed arguments now support two options.`
		8184
		8185	`ie: --Prerequisite(xxxx,--dir)`
		8186	`directory in which the prereq file is found`
		8187
		8188	`ie: --Prerequisite(xxxx,--file)`
		8189	`The filename of the prereq file`
		8190
		8191	`* LinkPkgArchive and BuildPkgArchive will cause the build to fail if`
		8192	`the required package is not available. A "--package" option, to`
		8193	`the build command, will prevent this behaviour.`
		8194
		8195
		8196	`Minor changes:`
		8197	`* create_dpkg utility`
		8198	`Touch descpkg files when packages are merged. This will allow`
		8199	`utilities that use the timestamp of this file to determine that`
		8200	`the package has been altered.`

		8221	`builds from different machines to be merged into dpkg_archive.`
		8222
		8223	`The default operation is to replace the package indpkg_archive.`
		8224
		8225	`* Simplify the use of GBE_BUILDFILTER`
		8226	`GBE_BUILDFILTER should be used to limit the creation of makefiles`
		8227	`to those that are supported by the underlying hardware.`
		8228
		8229	`The change allows the construct`
		8230	`GBE_BUILDFILTER=SOLARIS --TARGET=SOLARIS`
		8231	`to be replaced by the simpler`
		8232	`GBE_BUILDFILTER=SOLARIS`

		8275	`Correct two common situations`
		8276	`1) // Style comments. The following line was ignored`

		8278	`ansi, but is often done.`
		8279
		8280	`* GCC toolset`
		8281	`Corrected operation of the C++ compiler. The object file was not`
		8282	`being created in the correct place.`
		8283
		8284	`* jats "label"`
		8285	`The -auto -clone options allow a label to be created if its not`

		8351
		8352	`* Jats wrapper`

		8354	`and then change to the containing directory before execution`
		8355	`further commands.`
		8356
		8357	`Minor changes:`

		8368	`NoPDB - Disable the generation of PDBs`
		8369	`PDB - Enable the generation of PDBs (default).`
		8370
		8371	`These options operation affect all components within the`

		8390
		8391	`* The JATS wrapper script command "prod" to build and package the`

		8393
		8394	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8395	`Version: JATS_2.13.0 Released: 18-Mar-05`
		8396	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8397	`Major changes:`
		8398	`* Modified the order in which the makefiles passes operate. Merged`
		8399	`the make_shlib and the install_shlib into one phase. The`
		8400	`implication of this is that Shared Libraries that are created can`
		8401	`"installed" so that other shared libraries can link against them.`
		8402	`The order in which the makefile.pl's are processed is important as`
		8403	`this is the order in which the libraries will be created and`
		8404	`installed.`
		8405
		8406	`This solution does not handle mutual shared libraries: two shared`
		8407	`libraries that depend on each other.`
		8408
		8409	`This is an issue only in Solaris and Linux systems that do not`
		8410	`generate separate stub libraries to link against.`
		8411
		8412	`Minor changes:`
		8413	`* WIN32 and WinCE Toolsets`
		8414	`Building up resources. The RC compiler can now locate resource files`
		8415	`in the "local" and "interface" directory.`
		8416
		8417	`* The version.c, version.h and descpkg files will be created in the`
		8418	`first directory named with a BuildDir directive, unless a`
		8419	`"src" directory is encountered. This mimics the operation`
		8420	`of the older JATS, without the need for a "src" directory.`
		8421
		8422	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8423	`Version: JATS_2.12.0 Released: 18-Mar-05`
		8424	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8425	`Major changes:`
		8426
		8427	`Minor changes:`
		8428	`* Added a --Depend=xxx[,yyy]+ option to the Src directive`
		8429	`Not needed for C and C++ files, but may be used in conjunction`
		8430	`with assembler files to indicate that the file includes another`
		8431	`file.`
		8432
		8433	`* Fixed problem with the local_dpkg_archive consistency test when`
		8434	`a soft link is used to redirect to the package.`
		8435
		8436	`* Win32 and WinCE toolsets`
		8437	`Added a compiler option to enable Run Time Type Information.`
		8438	`CompileOptions ('WIN32', 'RTTI' );`
		8439
		8440	`Add an option to Shared Library creation to allow the generation of`
		8441	`a Resource Only DLL. Option is "--ResourceOnly"`
		8442
		8443	`Add an option to allow Resources to be built into Static Libraries`
		8444	`in the same manner at Shared Libraries.`
		8445
		8446	`* WinCE toolsets`
		8447	`Mutual DLL support corrected. Library path is used to resolve`
		8448	`compiler specific libraries.`
		8449
		8450	`* SOLARIS toolset`
		8451	`Prevent the compiler displaying its command line. This is in line`
		8452	`with the other tools sets. The commands can be seen with`
		8453	`OPTIONS=args and this may be set in the users environment.`
		8454
		8455	`Modified the cleanup process to delete the links to shared`
		8456	`libraries. Only files, and not links to files, where being`
		8457	`cleaned up.`
		8458
		8459	`* Microtec tools set (MOS)`
		8460	`Dependancy generation can display commands with OPTIONS=args`
		8461
		8462	`* jats_rewriter.pl`
		8463	`Allow BuildName and LinkPkgArchive directives to contains arguments`
		8464	`with either " or ' characters.`

		8467	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8468	`Version: JATS_2.11.0 Released: 15-Mar-05`
		8469	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8470	`Major changes:`
		8471	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		8472	`The entire "include" directory is copied into the interface area`
		8473	`The installer was trying to be too smart and only copy platform`
		8474	`specific files,but was missing out many needed subdirectories`
		8475
		8476	`Reduce the warnings generated. These were an artifact of the process`
		8477	`of picking up all the strange variations of the directory structures.`
		8478
		8479	`* Cleaned up the handling of object files that were generated by the`
		8480	`user.`
		8481
		8482	`* MOS Microtec Toolset`
		8483	`Always present an absolute filename to the compiler`
		8484	`Display a shortened filename to allow the user to track progress`
		8485
		8486	`This will remove error messages about the path being too long`
		8487	`for the -Gf option.`
		8488
		8489	`Minor changes:`
		8490	`* SOLARIS Toolset`
		8491	`Remove duplicate -KPIC flags on the command line`
		8492
		8493	`* Win32 and WinCE Toolset`
		8494	`Source files are either compiled by the C compiler as C files or`
		8495	`the C++ compiler as C++ files. The option to allow the compiler to`
		8496	`figure out what sort of file it is has been removed.`
		8497
		8498	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8499	`Version: JATS_2.10.0 Released: 11-Mar-05`
		8500	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8501	`Major changes:`
		8502	`* Extended BuildName to accept the form`
		8503	`BuildName ('package_name', 'nn.nn.nn.xxx' );`
		8504
		8505	`* MOS68K and MOSCF toolset.`
		8506	`Extended the --board option to allow the user to define code and`
		8507	`data addresses for the board.`
		8508
		8509	`BuildProduct( 'TP5', 'MOSCF','--board=01234H,05678H' );`
		8510
		8511	`Will set the code,data address for the debugable image`
		8512
		8513	`* Extended the PackageXxxxx options`
		8514	`1) Allow --Platform=xxx,yyy`
		8515	`Where xxx is a directory prefix and yyy is suffix to the`
		8516	`"platform" name. Only useful within the context of the`
		8517	`PackageFile`
		8518
		8519	`2) The operation of --Platform=xxx when used by the PackageFile`
		8520	`directive now treats the xxx directory as a prefix to the`
		8521	`platform name. Other Package directives still treat it as a`
		8522	`suffix. In practice this is the logical use.`
		8523
		8524	`* Allow InstallLib and PackageLib to install a file that has been`
		8525	`discovered with a "Src" directive. This allows generated files`
		8526	`to be installed and packaged.`
		8527
		8528	`Minor changes:`
		8529
		8530	`* cache_dpkg utility`
		8531	`If a package is found in the local_dpkg_archive then the cache`
		8532	`entry will be deleted and the master archive will not be accessed.`
		8533
		8534	`* label utility`
		8535	`New option -auto to create and label`
		8536
		8537	`* Build WIN32 and WinCe Mutual DLLs with all the object files`
		8538	`This allows the generated import library to contain C++ names`
		8539
		8540	`* The BuildDirTree directive now supports an empty first argument`
		8541	`This allows a NULL tree.dir file, while still creating the root`
		8542	`directory. ie:`
		8543
		8544	`BuildDirTree ( '', 'pkg' );`
		8545
		8546	`* Fixed DEVIM 00019520`
		8547	`The problem was that /bin/pwd could return a different path to`
		8548	`the Cwd:getpwd() function. Solution: Use one mechanism throughout.`
		8549
		8550
		8551	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8552	`Version: JATS_2.9.0 Released: 28-Feb-05`
		8553	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8554	`Major changes:`
		8555	`* First release for Back Office and Front Office use.`
		8556
		8557	`* Added the jats tool jats_rewrite.pl to rewrite build.pl files.`
		8558	`To be used by the nightly build process.`
		8559
		8560	`* Work around a problem in the Microtec 68K compiler.`
		8561	`The compiler uses temp files. If the temp file name that the`
		8562	`compiler uses already exists, then the compiler will not delete`
		8563	`the file. Instead it appends information to the existing file.`
		8564
		8565	`The workaround is to create the temp files within the build's`
		8566	`interface directory and to remove all temp files before each`
		8567	`compilation.`
		8568
		8569	`This bug does not affect the Mictotec CF compiler.`
		8570
		8571	`Minor changes:`
		8572	`* The "jats clobber" command will remove version definition file, if`
		8573	`one is being produced.`
		8574
		8575	`* Using JATS within a Visual Studio project. The "rebuild all"`
		8576	`option now translates to the JATS unbuild command to do a better`
		8577	`job of cleaning the workspace.`
		8578
		8579	`* Added GetPackageRoot() directive to support the packaging of MOS`
		8580
		8581	`* Generate error message for misuse of the SubDir directive`
		8582
		8583	`* Modified BuildName to allow an '-' in the name.`
		8584	`This provides backward compatibility with existing packages.`
		8585
		8586	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8587	`Version: JATS_2.8.0 Released: 17-Feb-05`
		8588	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8589	`Major changes:`
		8590	`* Added some new WINCE based targets. These require WINCE SDKs to be`
		8591	`installed in order for the compilers to work.`
		8592
		8593	`* New PLATFORMS are WCEIT3000, WCEPA961 and WCEPCM7220`
		8594
		8595	`* All invocations of xmake specify the name of the makefile`
		8596	`This allow GNUMakefiles and the Jats makefiles to exist in the`
		8597	`same directory`
		8598
		8599	`* Overcome a limitation of the Microtec compiler in which the flag`
		8600	`_DEBUG is defined enev in production builds - contrary to the`
		8601	`documenattion.`
		8602
		8603	`Minor changes:`
		8604	`* Process of descpkg files allows for both Unix and DOS line endings`
		8605	`Under Unix JATS would report that the package names don't match`
		8606
		8607	`* Corrected a problem with BuildPkgArchive in which file names with`
		8608	`spaces could not be soft linked. Only affects Unix systems.`
		8609
		8610	`* Added a -rename to the "jats label" utility.`
		8611	`Ensure that the user specified label exists in the VOB`
		8612
		8613	`* Correct problem with "make clean" that resulted in a verbose display`
		8614	`when the verbose option had not been selected`
		8615
		8616	`* Correct a problem with "make unbuild". Changes in the build files`
		8617	`would prevent the execution of the command. This command should`
		8618	`be exempt from this test.`
		8619
		8620	`* Correct a problem with "make clean" in the WIN32 and WINCE`
		8621	`platforms where the .exp files were not deleted.`
		8622
		8623	`* The "JATS clobber" command now invokes "make clobber" and "build`
		8624	`clobber". The result is as clean a clean as it can be.`
		8625
		8626	`Note: Jats "clean" does not remove a lot of files. These can be`
		8627	`removed with "unbuild" and "unpackage". This is what "clobber"`
		8628	`does.`
		8629
		8630	`* The operation of "build clobber" has been cleaned up. It will`
		8631	`not try to invoke make if the makefiles have already been removed.`
		8632
		8633
		8634	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8635	`Version: JATS_2.7.0 Released: 09-Feb-05`
		8636	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8637	`Major changes:`
		8638	`* First release with support for the DAFBR compiler`
		8639
		8640	`* Extended MergeLibrary. Added per-file options of:`
		8641	`--Interface - Pull lib from Interface directory`
		8642	`--Local - Pull lib from Local directory (default)`
		8643	`--SubDir=pathname - Pull lib from a subdirectory`
		8644	`Note: xxxx,pathname still works`
		8645
		8646	`* Added "jats label" to provide a number of useful labeling`
		8647	`operations.`
		8648
		8649	`* Added extensive help to JATS. JATS -man.`
		8650
		8651	`* Added this manual ChangeLog file`
		8652
		8653	`Minor changes`
		8654	`* Added an 'ebin' command to jats to allow the JATS binary tools to`
		8655	`be run in a controlled environment from the command line.`
		8656
		8657	`* Prune the list of library paths passed through to the various`
		8658	`toolsets. If a directory does not have any files in it then the`
		8659	`directory is not added to the library path.`
		8660
		8661	`Thus if a library is located in xxxx/lib/WIN32 then JATS will`
		8662	`not add the xxxx/lib to the path.`
		8663
		8664	`* cbuilder will now look in all VOBs for the user specified label.`
		8665	`The program has a list of "known" labels which it will search`
		8666	`first in an attempt to speed up the process.`
		8667
		8668	`* The AddFlags directive will issue a warning if the flags does not`
		8669	`begin with a -D or a -U. The user should not be using compiler`
		8670	`specific flags.`
		8671
		8672	`* The use of linker flags will issue a warning.`
		8673
		8674	`* Process the common makefile.pl after the toolset has been`
		8675	`determined. This allows the toolset to extend the CompileOptions`
		8676	`such they are available to the common makefile.pl.`
		8677
		8678	`* Added the WIN32 CompileOptions "jats_v1" to force JATS to specify`
		8679	`a number of compile time definitions used by earlier versions of`
		8680	`JATS.`
		8681
		8682	`* Fixed bug in the --Debug option to the PackageProg directives that`
		8683	`caused both the production and debug versions to be packaged.`
		8684
		8685	`* The gen_msproject utility now creates simpler names for the MS`
		8686	`projects that it creates. The name no longer contains the full`
		8687	`pathname, thus making them shorter and readable.`
		8688
		8689	`* The ShowDlls utility now handles absolute and relative paths to`
		8690	`the initial DLL or EXE.`
		8691
		8692	`* Correct problem in which the use of Generate/Rule directives may`
		8693	`fail since prerequisite subdirectories were not being created`
		8694	`since the "generate" phase was not being run.`
		8695
		8696	`Added messages to prompt the user to remove Generate, Generated`
		8697	`and Rule directives. Use the GenerateFiles directive`
		8698
		8699	`* JATS.BAT file will exclude LINUX builds by default.`
		8700
		8701	`* The make NODEPEND=1 processing now does not recurse at all.`
		8702	`Previously each subdirectory was visited - only to do nothing.`
		8703
		8704	`* Correct a problem in creating stub libraries for MOS targets if`
		8705	`the stub library object was not listed with the SharedLib's`
		8706	`objects.`
		8707
		8708	`* Correct a problem with the MS Studio support. The invoked make`
		8709	`command is XXX_all_debug. There was a problem with this command in`
		8710	`that it did not do any dependancy checking and would not always`
		8711	`build defendants.`
