		2175	`* Automated Build System Support for machines that do not build the package`
		2176	`This version provides a transparent 'dummy' build under conditions where`
		2177	`a package does not build for the current machine. All the commands`
		2178	`used by the 'buildtool' will perform a dummy build. There are no build`
		2179	`artifacts, but the build will not fail.`
		2180
		2181	`This mechanism improved the tracking of files created during the creation`
		2182	`of makefiles and uses this mechanism to deleted generated files.`

		2224	`Subversion instance of the command.`
		2225
		2226	`This change will not be picked up by Windows users. They will need to`

		3598	`* Solaris targets`
		3599	`Full support for a target called SOLARIS8_SPARC32`
		3600	`It is identical to SOLARIS in a 'sparc' build machine, but it is only`

		3631
		3632	`* Solaris builds`
		3633	`Program and Shared library dependency checking is now done before`

313	dpurdie	3715	`* Perl Modules`
		3716	`Included the most recent version of the Pod module within the JATS`

		3736
		3737	`Once labels have been applied a check is done to ensure that`

309	dpurdie	3756	`The cmdfile utility creates paths with file path separators as discovered`
307	dpurdie	3757	`in the PATH EnvVar. Now that PATH is nice it means that the use of cmdfile`

		3867
		3868	`* The LinkSandbox directive is not allowed when GBE_ABT is set.`

		3958	`This toolset has a number of limitations:`
		3959	`1) It can build either Debug or Production, but not both, in a single`
		3960	`makefile.pl. This is caused by the Delphi limitation that library`

		3962
		3963	`2) The generation of dependencies between the source and the generated`
		3964	`artifacts is very simplistic.`

		3978	`file.`
		3979	`ie: SharedLib ( '*', 'MyDll' );`
		3980	`will create a package called MyDll.dll/lib from the source file`

		5049	`Major changes:`
229	dpurdie	5050	`* Jats Release Mechanism`
		5051	`Jats can now release itself. This is not the same a building all of its`
		5052	`internal components, but it does mean that a new version of JATS can be`
		5053	`released using the 'standard' mechanism.`
		5054
		5055	`Jats releases will be tracked in Release Manager.`
		5056

		5059
		5060	`* Running Jats`
		5061	`Running Jats from within a ClearCase view is being deprecated.`

		5071	`* Perl Version Check`
		5072	`Jats will generate a warning if the version of Perl in use is newer`
		5073	`than the version used in test. Newer versions are not always backward`
		5074	`compatible. Currently JATS has been extensively tested with 5.8.8.`
		5075
		5076	`* Build Directive: BuildVersion`
		5077	`This directive has been extended to allow the creation of a 'properties'`

		5079	`build.`
		5080
		5081	`* Jats Internals`

		5085	`* Jats Tool: CCbc2`
		5086	`Added utility to use BeyondCompare (BC2) to compare files in two`
		5087	`packages defined as ClearCase labels. The utility creates two dynamic views`
		5088	`and starts BeyondCompare. The views are destroyed at the end of the`
		5089	`process.`
		5090
		5091	`Requires BeyondCompare to be installed in its default location.`
		5092	`Only works under Windows.`

		5094	`Use jats CCbc2 -help (or -man) for further details.`
		5095

		5099	`* Jats test runtime helper scripts set_PLATFORM.bat`
		5100	`Uses SETLOCAL / ENDLOCAL to prevent environment variables being exported`
		5101	`into the parent space. This mimics the behaviour of Unix.`
		5102
		5103	`* Jats eprog`
		5104	`Consistent cross-platform handling of programs found in the current`
		5105	`directory.`

		5117	`* Jats Tool: create_dpkg`
		5118	`Added options to allow the utility to sanity test the package name and`

		5121	`-pname=Package_Name`
		5122	`-pversion=Package_Version`
		5123

		5134
		5135	`* Solaris Toolset`
		5136	`Disable the use of purify, purecov and quantify when building shared`
		5137	`libraries. Shared libraries are not supported by these tools. Executable`

		5143	`Major changes:`
		5144
		5145	`Minor changes:`
		5146	`* WINCE toolsets`
		5147	`Added a run-time test for the presence of the required toolset`
		5148	`This will report an error if the required WINCE toolset has not been`
		5149	`installed. This is better than obscure message generated by the compilers`
		5150	`when header files cannot be found.`
		5151
		5152	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		5153	`If the generating tool can only be found in the users path, don't make`

		5155	`that are difficult to solve.`
		5156
		5157	`* MakePerlModule directive`

		5165
		5166	`* Jats Tool: release`
		5167	`Corrected a problem when multiple ant builds where located within the`
		5168	`build view. Now all ants builds will be perform.`
		5169
		5170	`Expanded the operation of the '-build=name' option such that it can be`
		5171	`used to limit ANT builds by specifying the name of the depends.xml file.`
		5172
		5173	`* Jats Tool: CCdiff`
		5174	`Added utility to provide difference reports in a format suitable to be`
		5175	`uploaded to CodeStriker.`

		5287	`Version: 2.71.1.cr Released: 16-Oct-07`
		5288	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5289	`Major changes:`
		5290
		5291	`Minor changes:`
		5292	`PackageLib directive`
		5293	`The construct "PackageLib( '*', @SHLIBS, @LIBS );" now works as expected.`
		5294	`Packaging multiple libraries and shared libraries works as expected.`
		5295	`Packaging multiple shared libraries works as expected.`
		5296
		5297	`MakefileGenerate directive`
		5298	`This directive should only be called once. JATS will now generate a warning,`
		5299	`and not produce an erroneous, if the directive is invoked more than once.`
		5300
		5301	`Multiple Parent detection`
		5302	`A makefile.pl that is invoked from more than one other makefile.pl, or the`
		5303	`build.pl, is counted as having multiple parents. This condition is`
		5304	`normally treated as an error. When run by the Auto Built Tool, this`
		5305	`condition will be treated as a warning.`
		5306
		5307	`Solaris Toolset`
		5308	`Added option '--WithMisalign' to the SharedLib directive.`
		5309	`When used in conjunction with the 'misalign' CompleOption this option will`
		5310	`cause a machine specific object file (misalign.o) to be included in the`
		5311	`link.`
		5312
		5313	`Programs that are created with 'misalign' will automatically include the`
		5314	`misalign.o object file. The fact that shared libraries do not may be an`
		5315	`indication that this is a bad thing to do.`
		5316
		5317	`Make and generation of subdirectories`
		5318	`Fixed an issue which caused created directories to have a bad timestamp.`
		5319	`This could result in multiple attempts to generate the source dependency`
		5320	`file.`
		5321
		5322	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5323	`Version: 2.71.0.cr Released: 10-Oct-07`
		5324	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5325	`Major changes:`
		5326	`Makefile generation and make recursion`
		5327	`Extensive changes to the makefiles that are generated by JATS and method by`
		5328	`which JATS recuses through subdirectories during a build.`
		5329
		5330	`Summary of changes:`
		5331	`- Removed the use of 'make' to perform recursion over subdirectories`
		5332	`and platforms. This has been replaced by a JATS program that performs`
		5333	`the same task - only a great deal faster and with a greater scope for`
		5334	`flexibility.`
		5335
		5336	`The user interface remains identical: jats make ....`
		5337
		5338	`- Replaced the generated 'Makefile' with 'Makefile.gbe'. This is a text`
		5339	`file that provides sufficient information to allow JATS to locate the`
		5340	`interface directory and associated build information.`
		5341
		5342	`- Significant speed up in determining the need to rebuild a makefile.`
		5343	`On a large package this has been reduced from 30+ seconds to less`
		5344	`than one second.`
		5345
		5346	`- Significant speed up of large recursive builds through intelligent`
		5347	`building of the 'make_init' target. This is only processed once for`
		5348	`each platform type. Previously it was processed in each and every`
		5349	`makefile. This make target is used, internally, to perform sanity`
		5350	`testing of the compiler environment and to display the name of the`
		5351	`toolset. It is an expensive operation.`
		5352
		5353	`- Intelligent speed up of large recursive through better mechanism`
		5354	`for creating required directories. These are now created on the fly,`
		5355	`rather than via a slow recursive pass though all makefiles.`
		5356
		5357	`- Better makefile rebuilding`
		5358	`Makefiles can be rebuilt on the fly. The previous system was prone to`
		5359	`detecting that makefiles needs to be re-built, but then not re-`
		5360	`building them.`
		5361
		5362	`- Detection of build file changes`
		5363	`The make process will detect that the build file has been modified`
		5364	`and that the component has not been rebuilt. This is a warning. It`
		5365	`does not prevent the 'make' operation.`
		5366
		5367	`- Quieter make output`
		5368	`The 'Nothing to be done' message has been disabled.`
		5369
		5370

		5477	`* Reverted changes made in JATS_2.68.1 to the library search path`

		5483
		5484	`For the record, the search order for header files and libraries is:`

		5510
		5511	`Minor changes:`

		5514	`dependent packages.`
		5515
		5516	`* RunTest operation`

		5522	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5523	`Version: JATS_2.68.0 Released: 20-Aug-07`
		5524	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5525	`Major changes:`
		5526	`* Trap use of uncontrolled versions of 'ant' and the Java Compiler (javac)`
		5527
		5528	`It was discovered that a few old makefile.pl's where invoking ant and`
		5529	`javac directly in order to build small Java components. This was`
		5530	`normally being done in the guise of the WIN32 target. These packages`
		5531	`were making assumptions about the version of Java on the users search`
		5532	`path.`
		5533
		5534	`JATS can invoke ANT and build Java based components using the MakeAnt`
		5535	`directive and the JAVA platform. This method is controlled and`
		5536	`reproducible.`
		5537
		5538	`This release provides changes such that these packages will not build.`
		5539	`This is better than building incorrectly.`
		5540
		5541	`There are several aspects to the change`
		5542	`1) JATS provides binaries (ant and javac) with an error message. If`
		5543	`the user invoked ant/javac in a manner that involves searching the`
		5544	`PATH then these will be used and report an error.`
		5545
		5546	`2) A special command (jats abt) can be used to start up the Auto Build`
		5547	`Tool in a manner that does not alter the PATH seen by the utilities.`
		5548	`Moreover it does not alter the JAVA_HOME seen by the build. This is`
		5549	`controlled separately.`
		5550
		5551	`Minor changes:`
		5552	`* Sanitize the PATH environment variable`
		5553	`Ensure the JATS bin directory is the first directory searched`
		5554	`Remove duplicates`
		5555	`Place non-existent components at the end of the PATH`
		5556
		5557	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5558	`Version: JATS_2.67.1 Released: 17-Aug-07`
		5559	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5560	`Major changes:`
		5561
		5562	`Minor changes:`
		5563	`* Makefile sanity test`
		5564	`Added a test to ensure that makefiles created on a machine of one type are`
		5565	`not then run on a machine of a different type.`
		5566
		5567	`This will prevent files created on solaris-sparc being used on a solaris-`
		5568	`x86 machine.`
		5569
		5570	`* Correct bug in RunTest`
		5571	`RunTest now extends the PATH to include the local bin directory`
		5572
		5573	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5574	`Version: JATS_2.67.0 Released: 13-Aug-07`
		5575	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5576	`Major changes:`
		5577	`* RunTest directive`
		5578	`Added support for running tests within the NUNIT test framework for the`
		5579	`CSHARP target. In the process a generalized mechanism for accessing`
		5580	`toolset specific test frameworks has been added.`
		5581
		5582	`Changes to the directive to support a FrameWork.`
		5583	`The use of a test FrameWork is signaled with the option`
		5584	`--FrameWork=<name> If this is present then the raw name of the program`
		5585	`under test will be passed to the framework. program.`
		5586
		5587	`If a FrameWork is in use, then JATS will invoke the specified framework`
		5588	`builder within the current toolset.`
		5589
		5590	`When a framework is in place JATS will pass arguments of the form:`
		5591	`'--Tag=Text' to the FrameWork. Other options are processed as normal.`
		5592
		5593	`With in the Nunit FrameWork the program under test will be a DLL Nunit`
		5594	`will only operate on a DLL. The DLL must have been created by the makefile`
		5595	`containing the RunTest directive.`
		5596
		5597	`The Nunit Framework supports the following options:`
		5598	`--Uses=<Name>[,SubOption]+`
		5599
		5600	`This option specifies other DLLs that are used by the TestDLL. They will`
		5601	`be copied in to the test directory, and may be sourced from an external`
		5602	`package or the components 'local' lib directory.`
		5603
		5604	`SubOptions available to The --Uses directive are:`
		5605	`--NonJats This is not a JATS built library. It will not have a`
		5606	`P or D suffix.`
		5607	`--Jats (Default) This is a JATS built library. JATS will`
		5608	`select the correct library type for this build.`
		5609
		5610	`Minor changes:`
		5611	`* New Cache cleanup mechanism`
		5612	`When a package is consumed from the 'cache' a flag is updated within`
		5613	`the cache. The cache aging routines use this file in preference to`
		5614	`the descpkg file, thus it will prevent the aging of packages that are`
		5615	`frequently used. The aging policy can be made more aggressive.`
		5616
		5617	`* Save Build Utility`
		5618	`This utility is used by the Auto Build System to save the 'build.pl' file`
		5619	`used in a ripple build.`
		5620
		5621	`The utility has been enhanced to detect a reserved checkout of the`
		5622	`build.pl. The checkout will be changed to unreserved - if possible.`
		5623
		5624	`* Release Utility`
		5625	`The 'jats release' command will now unlock any labels that it locked`
		5626	`when an error is encountered.`
		5627
		5628	`This simplifies the 'release' process as the developers label will be`
		5629	`unlocked if a build error occurs.`
		5630
		5631	`* Jats caching local copy of itself`
		5632	`Fixed a bug which resulted in an "Use of individualized value" message`
		5633	`being displayed a large number of times during the file transfer process.`
		5634
		5635	`* Minor extension to allow plug-in directives to perform a processing step`
		5636	`before the makefiles are created.`
		5637
		5638	`* TestProg directive`
		5639	`TestProg's are now built in exactly the same manner as Progs`
		5640
		5641	`* Correct problem introduced in 2.66.1 with packaging of files with`
		5642	`a 'space' or '$' in the file name.`
		5643

		5647	`Major changes:`
		5648	`* New build target`

		5653	`DEVLINUX`
		5654	`LMOS_DEVLINUX`
		5655

		5658	`transfer, after having problems the 'cp.exe' provided by JATS.`
		5659
		5660	`Minor changes:`
		5661	`* Added utility class to provide directory searching`

		5665	`Correct problem with filename that start with "n" as in .\not_nice.cs`
		5666
		5667	`Create resource files with Fully Qualified Names derived from the .resx`
		5668	`and .cs files.`
		5669
		5670	`Handle Strong Key Names and creates wrappers to provide do the right`
		5671	`thing.`
		5672
		5673	`* Microtec ColdFire compiler`
		5674	`Further attempts to get the compiler to place all of its temp files in a`
		5675	`local directory. The compiler uses a large number of EnVars to control`
		5676	`were it places temp files.`
		5677
		5678	`Underlying problem is random compiler failures on big builds. Suspected`
		5679	`interaction with other builds.`
		5680
		5681	`* Release utility command`
		5682	`Added a -tag=name option to allow the Auto Build Tools to create`
		5683	`multiple instances of a static view. The tag is used to provide a unique`
		5684	`component in the clearcase tag name.`

		5773	`Major changes:`
		5774	`* Provided a mechanism by which JATS makefile.pl directives can be extended`

		5776	`the dependancy on JATS of various packaging processes.`

		5778	`* GenerateFiles`
		5779	`Added the options:`
		5780	`--UnknownPreq - Will force the recipe to be run every time`

		5784
		5785	`--AutoGenerate - Will not force the recipe to be run during the`

		5923
		5924	`LMOS_TP5600 is a tag that will be expanded to the entire family of LMOS_TP5600`
		5925	`supported targets. A common alias of LMOS_T5600 will be created to`

		5927
		5928	`LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI and LMOS_TP5600_EMU`
		5929	`These are LMOS based targets. The 'lmos' package must be used in order to`

		5965	`* Directive: PackageFile`
		5966	`Generate a warning if the source file name does not confirm to good naming`
		5967	`conventions. The filename must not start with a '-' and must not contain`
		5968	`an '='.`

		5974	`Updated Linux and Solaris targets with a version of the cmdfile that`
		5975	`provides a better error message for libraries that cannot be found.`
		5976
		5977	`This version will display the library search path with one item per line,`

		5983	`Major changes:`
		5984
		5985	`* JATS release command`
		5986	`Modified the configuration spec generated when a branching rule is`
		5987	`specified. The change will ensure that directories are not branched.`
		5988
		5989	`Rules are:`
		5990	`Modify a file: File will branch`
		5991	`Adding a file: Containing directory will not branch`
		5992	`File will be placed on a branch`
		5993	`Add a directory: Containing directory will not branch`
		5994	`New directory will branch`
		5995
		5996	`Minor changes:`
		5997	`* JATS release command`
		5998	`Added -noprefex option to allow the creation of a view directory without the`
		5999	`user name being prefixed to it. This is useful in creating an escrow view.`
		6000
		6001	`* JATS label command`
		6002	`Detect and report parent directories that are checkedout when a label`
		6003	`is applied. Previously these had gone unreported.`
		6004
		6005	`* JATS make`
		6006	`Undo previous change to preserve symbolic links while Packaging and`
		6007	`Installing files. A problem was encountered when a file from a package`
		6008	`was re-packaged.`
		6009
		6010	`* JATS escrow`
		6011	`Added a tool to generate information for creating an escrow drop.`
		6012	`Use jats escrow -help for details`
		6013
		6014	`* makefile.pl directive: MakeAnt`
		6015	`This directive will create parameters to specify the location of external java`
		6016	`packages that have been referenced via a LinkPkgArchive directive.`
		6017
		6018	`This allows the build.xml to contruct a CLASSPATH to access JAR files in`
		6019	`packages, without the overhead of copying the entire package into the`
		6020	`interface directory.`
		6021
		6022	`* build.pl directive: BuildPkgArchive`
		6023	`Modified the processing of 'jar' directories.`
		6024	`Directories of the form 'jar.<target>' will be transferred into the 'jar'`
		6025	`directory as seen by the package.`
		6026
		6027	`Intended use: Deployment of oraclient for Solaris 10`
		6028
		6029	`* JAVA 6`
		6030	`JATS now supports all versions of Java through the use of JAVA_HOME_X_Y`
		6031	`environment variables. Where X andY specify the version of JAVA.`
		6032
		6033	`The jats.bat and jats.sh example files only provide indication of 1.4, 1.5`
		6034	`and 1.6 support, but all versions are now supported.`
		6035
		6036	`The "jats vars -v" command will display all JAVA_HOME environment variables`
		6037
		6038	`* Jats command: vars`
		6039	`Extended to show a "*" for EnvVars that do not address a valid directory`
		6040	`These indicate potential problems.`
		6041
		6042	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6043	`Version: JATS_2.62.4 Released: 20-Mar-07`
		6044	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6045	`Major changes:`
		6046	`* JATS create_dpkg + packageing shared libraries (Unix)`
		6047	`When a shared library is created a simple symbolic link to the versioned`
		6048	`libarry is also created.`
		6049
		6050	`Previous versions of JATS would replace the symbolic link with a physical`
		6051	`copy of the file. The effect of this is that when the shared libaries is`
		6052	`'Installed', 'Packaged' and transferred into dpkg_archive there are two`
		6053	`files, instead of one file and one link to the file (in the same directory)`
		6054	`The Solaris shared libraries can be quite large, due to the debug`
		6055	`information contained within the file.`
		6056
		6057	`This version of JATS will preserve symbolic links when 'Installing',`
		6058	`'Packaging' and transferring to dpkg_archive.`
		6059
		6060	`The advantage of this will be significant reduction in disk space used`
		6061	`within the build environment and dpkg_archive.`
		6062
		6063	`* Building Perl Modules`
		6064	`Modified the process to prevent the module builder attempting to modify the`
		6065	`documentation on the build machine.`
		6066
		6067	`Integrated the 'jats clean' operation.`
		6068
		6069	`Minor changes:`
		6070	`* jats create_dpkg`
		6071	`Added an option to create a built.generic file`
		6072	`This is only used by the Automated Built Tools.`
		6073
		6074	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6075	`Version: JATS_2.62.3 Released: 28-Feb-07`
		6076	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6077	`Major changes:`
		6078	`* JATS JAVA build target`
		6079	`The default behaviour of the JAVA build target has changed such that the`
		6080	`default version of JAVA used will be 1.4.`
		6081
		6082	`Previous behaviour was to use whichever version was specified by the EnvVar`
		6083	`JAVA_HOME. This was not controlled, thus the build was not controlled.`
		6084	`Problems occur when using the new AutoBuildTool as it uses Java 1.5 and this`
		6085	`is then picked up as the default version.`
		6086
		6087	`If a version, other than 1.4, is required then specify it within the`
		6088	`build.pl file.`
		6089
		6090	`Minor changes:`
		6091	`* jats release`
		6092	`Ensure that the 'cleartool' command can be found in the users PATH`
		6093	`Issue an error if it cannot be found.`
		6094	`This error indicates bad DevEnv setup`
		6095
		6096	`Added facility to create a view based on a config_spec, instead of a label.`
		6097	`Such a view cannot be used to create a release. It is intended to simplify`
		6098	`the creation of simple static views. The name of view is, by default,`
		6099	`based on the name of the config spec. Use the -view=name option to change`
		6100	`the name of the view.`
		6101
		6102	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		6103	`Added new --Vars() to allow packaging of JATS plugin tools.`
		6104
		6105	`* MOS Toolset`
		6106	`When using MOS fast intermodule calls the optimizer will preload commonly`
		6107	`used memory addresses into a register BEFORE the GDP has been correctly set`
		6108	`up. Use the following option to suppress this optimization`
		6109
		6110	`Added: CompileOptions ('*', 'NoGlobalOptimization' );`
		6111

		6114	`Version: JATS_2.62.2 Released: 15-Feb-07`
		6115	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6116	`Major changes:`
		6117
		6118	`Minor changes:`
		6119	`* JATS environment`
		6120	`Ensure that the true path of the Perl executable is present in the PATH`
		6121	`environment variable. This allows build tool access to various perl utilities`
		6122	`that are located in the Perl bin directory.`
		6123
		6124	`Resolves issues in locating utilities such as pod2html`
		6125
		6126	`* Use of GENERIC platforms`
		6127	`Report an error if a GENERIC platform is mixed with any other platform`
		6128	`specifier. GENERIC is used for packages that build on all machines because`
		6129	`they do not use a compiler or linker. They simply contains files that need`
		6130	`to be packaged.`
		6131
		6132	`* Generated makefiles`
		6133	`Solaris and Linux: Ensure that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is exported if it is used.`
		6134
		6135	`* Generating MOS THX files`
		6136	`Added option --BinaryImage to the SharedLib directive used to create MOS THX`
		6137	`files. This option will create a binary image (.bin) instead of a .thx file.`
		6138	`This is being used in the creation of BR Applets.`
		6139
		6140	`SharedLib ( 'MOS', "xxx", @OBJS, "--Rel=xxx.rel", "--BinaryImage" );`
		6141
		6142	`* JATS release`
		6143	`Correct the operation of the -path option under Unix`
		6144
		6145	`* JATS extract`
		6146	`New JATS command. This is the same as 'jats release -extract'`
		6147
		6148	`* JATS Toolset`
		6149	`Added support for the WinCe PSION (WCEPSION_420)`
		6150	`This is a armv4i device using 4.20 of the WCE SDK`
		6151
		6152
		6153	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6154	`Version: JATS_2.62.1 Released: 18-Jan-07`
		6155	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6156	`Major changes:`
		6157
		6158	`Minor changes:`
		6159	`* jats label`
		6160	`Added a -vob=name option`
		6161	`This allwos the label utility to create, lock, unlock, rename and delete`
		6162	`labels without the user actually being located within the VOB. This option`
		6163	`cannot be used in conjunction with operations that place labels on files.`
		6164	`It can only be used for operations that manipulate the label.`
		6165
		6166	`Added a -user=name option`
		6167	`This extends the operation of the -mine operation to change ownership of the`
		6168	`label to the named user.`
		6169
		6170	`* jats release`
		6171	`Displays the path to the view and the build file in a user friendly manner`
		6172	`Under Windows it uses \, unless running under cygwin.`
		6173
		6174	`* JATS build.pl`
		6175	`BuildProduct supports the --Uses=xxxx construct on a per-target basis.`
		6176	`ie:`
		6177	`BuildProduct ('TP5', 'LMOS_TP5600_EMU', 'LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI,--Uses=TP5600_ARM9TDMI');`

		6181	`Version: JATS_2.62.0 Released: 22-Dec-06`
		6182	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6183	`Major changes:`
		6184	`* GenerateFiles and RunTest directives`
		6185	`These directives have been extended to allow a large number of makefile`
		6186	`values to be added to the command lines,without resorting to knowledge of`
		6187	`the makefile internals. ie:`
		6188	`--Var(BuildName)`
		6189	`will be expanded to (hen building MyPackage)`
		6190	`-BuildName=MyPackage`
		6191
		6192	`The complete list of Variables is provided in the JATS manual.`
		6193
		6194	`* GenerateFiles`
		6195	`Added a --Clean option to allow tools to be invoked in the 'clean' phase`
		6196	`This allows external scripts to cleanup.`
		6197
		6198	`* BuildPlatforms`
		6199	`Restored operation of the --Uses option`
		6200
		6201	`Minor changes:`
		6202	`* GCC Toolset`
		6203	`Exports path to compiler. Used by scripts to build packages`
		6204
		6205	`Internal changes:`
		6206	`* GenerateFiles`
		6207	`Maintains the arguments in an array for simpler processing.`
		6208
		6209	`--Shell is now processed by the 'make' shell rather then invoking an`
		6210	`external shell. It will be the same shell, just easier to setup.`
		6211
		6212
		6213	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6214	`Version: JATS_2.61.3 Released: 14-Dec-06`
		6215	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6216	`Major changes:`
		6217	`* Caching JATS`
		6218	`Added a mechanism whereby JATS can cache a copy of itself on the users local`
		6219	`drive. This is applicable to windows.`
		6220
		6221	`This mechanism will allow a user to address JATS via the soft-links in`
		6222	`dpkg_archive and pick up the current version of JATS without the penalty of`
		6223	`then using JATS across a slow(network) link.`
		6224
		6225	`The EnvVar GBE_CACHE_JATS controls the operation of this feature.`
		6226	`Set GBE_CACHE_JATS to one to enable the operation, but it will only be`
		6227	`effective if JATS is being run from GBE_DPKG in the first place.`
		6228
		6229	`Use: Build Machines and Windows Users`
		6230
		6231	`Minor changes:`
		6232	`* Build directive: BuildAlias with --Target option`
		6233	`Corrected a problem when the target name is a expanded platform name (ie:`
		6234	`TP5600) that prevent correct expansion.`
		6235
		6236	`* jats build`
		6237	`If the user has not configured a cache, then do not attempt to cache`
		6238	`packages. This will remove an annoying warning message for each package`
		6239	`processed by the build.`
		6240
		6241	`* jats build`
		6242	`Modified the error messages generated when JATS fails to create the`
		6243	`makefiles. The previous system would report failures while creating`
		6244	`makefiles and, at the end of the process, it would generate a large error`
		6245	`message to indicate the failure. This large message diverted the users`
		6246	`from reading the other error messages resulting in confusion.`
		6247
		6248	`* PackageFile, PackageLib, PackageProg and PackageHdr`
		6249	`Detect and report as an error use of the --Dir=<Path> option where the`
		6250	`Path is not specified.`
		6251
		6252	`Most instances of this error will be where the option has been mis-used in`
		6253	`conjunction with a package.pl file, or during transition from using a`
		6254	`package.pl file. That change is detects errors where the user has specified`
		6255	`--Dir=$Pinc`
		6256	`but $Pinc is not defined.`
		6257
		6258	`* Purify and Purecov under Windows`
		6259	`Changes to correct the operation of Rational's tools when used on the`
		6260	`Windows platform.`
		6261
		6262	`- OPTIONS=purecov`
		6263	`Forces the link operations to generate the relocation table required`
		6264	`by 'purecov.`
		6265
		6266	`Does not attempt to use purecov in the compiler tool chain`
		6267	`This is required under Solaris, but not Windows`
		6268
		6269	`- OPTIONS=purify`
		6270	`Does not attempt to use purecov in the compiler tool chain`
		6271	`This is required under Solaris, but not Windows.`
		6272	`Under WIndows this option does nothing.`

		6294	`* Unix based systems`
		6295	`If the EnvVar LD_LIBRARY_PATH was undefined, then a warning would be`

		6505
		6506	`Minor changes:`
		6507	`* WIN32 and WINCE toolsets`
		6508	`SharedLib operation. Added an option to allow the creation of a 'stub'`

		6545	`Initial release.`
		6546
		6547	`* Packaging directives`
		6548	`Added option --OsCommon to allow files and header files to be packed into`
		6549	`a directory known to all platforms being built for a common OS.`
		6550
		6551	`Currently this is only supported to target platforms based on`
		6552	`SOLARIS`
		6553	`WIN32`
		6554
		6555	`* Removal of support for badly formed packages`
		6556	`As of this release libraries that exist in the <packagename>/lib directory`
		6557	`will not be available to JATS. These libraries are in the incorrect`
		6558	`directory. They MUST be in a directory that indicates the intended purpose`
		6559	`of the library. A .so library cannot be used on all machines ( linux,`
		6560	`solaris-sparc, solaris-amd ... ).`
		6561
		6562	`* Build Platform target name expansion facility`
		6563	`The build targets of SOLARIS and LINUX are seen as expandable names. They`
		6564	`will be expanded to suitable targets - depending on the host machine .`
		6565
		6566
		6567	`Minor changes:`
		6568	`* Utility: JATS LABEL`

		6570	`Generate a suitable error message if it cannot be found.`
		6571
		6572	`* Utility: JATS RELEASE`
		6573	`Added a -root=dirname to allow the user to place the created view at a given`
		6574	`location`
		6575
		6576	`Added GBE_VIEWBASE to provide a globally configured mechanism for`
		6577	`controlling the view location. Performs the same job as -root=xxxx`
		6578
		6579	`* Utility genrc`
		6580	`Added the company name to the copyright string`
		6581
		6582	`* Utility: jats_save_build`
		6583	`Added option: -new`
		6584	`This option forces the saved file only a new branch.`
		6585	`The option can be used to save a build.pl file onto a new project-specific`
		6586	`branch. Useful when branching an entire release.`
		6587
		6588	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6589	`Added options to allow project suffixes to be replaced.`
		6590	`Use: Convert a .syd project to a .bej project.`
		6591
		6592	`* Deprecated features: package.pl and tree.dir`
		6593	`These two build features are being deprecated. They are not suitable for`
		6594	`migration to other SOLARIS based platforms.`
		6595
		6596	`The Package directives provide sufficient power to replace the package.pl`
		6597	`features - in a uniform manner.`
		6598
		6599
		6600	`Internal Changes:`
		6601	`* Major rework of the JATS BuildPlatform, BuildAlias an BuildProducts`
		6602	`directives, together with the mechanism used to describe the platform builds.`
		6603
		6604	`Introduced a CFG/<PLATFORM>.CFG file to provide:`
		6605	`1) Platform information available at build time`
		6606	`2) Dynamic platform names`
		6607
		6608	`* Major rework of the 'SOLARIS' platform`
		6609	`The SOLARIS platform will generate one or more targets, depending on the`
		6610	`machine on which the platform is invoked.`
		6611
		6612	`Consolidated a number of SOLARIS specific kludges and converted them into`
		6613	`configurable items. These kludges are really on applicable to the`
		6614	`SOLARIS8_SPARC32 platform. New SOLARIS builds will be well formed.`
		6615
		6616	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6617	`Formalized a number of kludges in operation of the SOLARIS8 under sparc32`
		6618	`platform. These are configured early in the build process and are no longer`
		6619	`needed.`
		6620
		6621	`A side effect of this work is that files from external packages may be`
		6622	`located in 'SOLARIS', 'SOLARIS_sparc' or 'sparc' directories. The change`
		6623	`should be transparent as the consumer tools should be able to handle`
		6624	`files from all of these.`

		6636	`Version: JATS_2.55.0 Released: 3-Aug-06`
		6637	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6638	`Major changes:`
		6639	`* Jats wrapper: Specify version of JATS to be used`
		6640	`Added a -version=xxxx option to force JATS to use a specific version of`
		6641	`JATS. The same operation can be achieved by setting GBE_JATS_VERSION.`
		6642
		6643	`The required version MUST be found in one of the known archives.`
		6644
		6645	`JATS will attempt to cache the version of JATS to assist in speeding up`
		6646	`the operations.`
		6647
		6648	`The version option MUST be the first option.`
		6649
		6650	`The version option MUST be followed by a '--' option.`
		6651	`This prevents JATS parsing other options and recursion issues.`
		6652
		6653	`Example: jats -version=2.54.3.cr -- build`
		6654
		6655	`* Migrated the "jats install" functionality out of the jats wrapper script`
		6656	`and into the create_dpkg utility. This is transparent to the user.`
		6657
		6658	`* Utility: create_dpkg`
		6659	`Added a '-quiet' option to allow use within scripts`
		6660	`Extended the built-in help`

		6669	`are used in the creation of bootstraps.`
		6670
		6671	`Minor changes:`
		6672	`* JATS wrapper script`
		6673	`Added a -ABT=xxx option to allow the Auto Build Tool to be invoked from`
		6674	`the command line.`
		6675
		6676	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6677	`Modified so that it will display changes. These will then be present in the`
		6678	`ABT log so that a developer can see which packages have been rippled.`
		6679
		6680	`Internal Changes:`
		6681	`* Common Error Reporting`
		6682	`Will use environment variables to control DEBUG and VERBOSE levels`
		6683	`for individual users. A module reporting with a name of XXXX will use EnvVars`
		6684	`of GBE_XXXX_VERBOSE and GBE_XXXX_DEBUG to control the debug and VERBOSE`
		6685	`level.`
		6686
		6687	`Force flushing after a "Question" is asked to ensure that the prompt is`
		6688	`displayed.`

		6741	`Deployment package will be affected.`
		6742
		6743	`The build.pl file of deployment package will need to import deployment`
		6744	`support with a BuildPkgArchive directive. ie:`
		6745
		6746	`BuildPkgArchive ( 'deployfiles', '1.0.0.cr' );`
		6747
		6748	`This version of deployfiles contains the same functionality as that provided`
		6749	`by the previous version of JATS. Version 2 of this package will be the start`
		6750	`of a deployment system that will provide support for building InstallShield`
		6751	`packages.`
		6752
		6753	`* Deployment support utilities must be run under JATS`
		6754	`The environment required for the deployment support utilities is complex`
		6755	`and is provided by the JATS wrapper script.`
		6756
		6757	`This is a change in usage. Instead of running the program 'updatenodespec'`
		6758	`the user will need to run 'jats updatenodespec'`
		6759
		6760	`Minor changes:`
		6761	`* SubDir directive`
		6762	`Added a sanity test to detect the case when a 'SubDir' directive specifies`
		6763	`a directory from two different makefiles.`
		6764
		6765	`* Tools: Dependancy generator mkdepend`
		6766	`If an include file was referenced by a symbolic name, then the generated`
		6767	`dependancy information would be wrong for all but the first occurrence`
		6768	`of the file usage.`
		6769
		6770	`* New utility: jats_manifest`
		6771	`Used by the build system to generate and validate source files.`
		6772	`Beta Release: Windows only at the moment`
		6773
		6774	`* Unit tests under SOLARIS_sparc`
		6775	`The LD_LIBRARY_PATH has been modified to correctly pick up libraries`
		6776	`generated within the build and have been installed locally.`
		6777
		6778	`* Default behaviour of JATS the wrapper script`
		6779	`This has been changed. Previous unknown commands were passed to make.`
		6780	`In this release unknown comamnds will be treated a 'etool' commands and`
		6781	`will execute a JATS extended command.`
		6782
		6783
		6784	`Internal Changes:`
		6785	`* Code refactor`
		6786	`Created JatsEnv to encapsulate functionality that was multiply defined.`
		6787
		6788	`* Deployment utilities`
		6789	`The Perl module Ignorelist.pm and the .ccignore file`
		6790	`Changed the mechanism by which this module locates a .ccignore file.`
		6791	`The .ccignore file has been moved to the same directory as the module and`
		6792	`the module can locate the file.`
		6793
		6794	`Previously the module required an environment variable in order to locate`
		6795	`the file, which was in a fixed location anyway.`
		6796
		6797	`* JATS core`
		6798	`Removed the use of the environment variable PERLINC.`
		6799
		6800	`Better parsing of descpkg files.`
		6801
		6802	`* JATS core debugging: JatsError.pm`
		6803	`Allow control over the debug and verbose messages of specific programs`
		6804	`through the use of environment variables.`
		6805
		6806	`A program reporting errors as "name" can be controlled via environment`
		6807	`variables GBE_name_VERBOSE and GBE_name_DEBUG.`
		6808
		6809	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6810	`Modified the subdirectories transferred with this directive to include:`
		6811	`deployfiles - as used by the deployment system`
		6812	`tools/scripts - as used by perl based extensions`
		6813
		6814	`* Make environment`
		6815	`Extended the PERL5LIB path seen by perl programs executed under make to`
		6816	`include 'tools/script' directories that contain Perl Modules.`
		6817

		6820	`Version: JATS_2.53.2 Released: 13-Jun-06`
		6821	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6822	`Major changes:`
		6823	`* Deployment. GetMassInstId.rul (From George Christidis)`
		6824	`Added support for SILENT_MODE`
		6825
		6826
		6827	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`

		6829	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6830
		6831	`Not Released.`
		6832	`This label waas used as a place keeper. This version was not used as a basis`
		6833	`for JATS_2.53.2. Its much closer to JATS_2.54.0.`
		6834
		6835
		6836	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6837	`Version: JATS_2.53.0 Released: 11-Apr-06`
		6838	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6839	`Major changes:`
		6840	`* Deployment Scripts: Release Manager Database Access`
		6841	`The mechanism for communicating with the Release Manager Database has been`
		6842	`radically replaced.`
		6843
		6844	`A test tool has been added to prove connectivity to Release Manager.`
		6845	`Usage:`
		6846	`jats etool test_rmconnection`
		6847
		6848	`The pervious scripts used DBI::ODBC to communicate with the Oracle`
		6849	`Database that contains Release Manager. There were a number of problems with`
		6850	`this solution:`
		6851	`- Required the installation of two Perl Modules`
		6852	`- Required the installation of an Oracle client`
		6853	`- Required the use of an ODBC bridge machine when used on Solaris`
		6854	`- Support for Perl within Oracle appears to be on the decline`
		6855
		6856	`The solutions uses a Java application and Java's jdbc. The oracle:thin`
		6857	`client is used as this does not require any installation or configuration in`
		6858	`order to work.`
		6859
		6860	`JATS overrides Perl's DBI package with a package of the same name, but`
		6861	`reduced functionality.`
		6862
		6863
		6864	`Minor changes:`
		6865	`* makefile.pl directive: SetValue`
		6866	`Added a '--' option to disable and enable parsing of options.`
		6867	`This allows a value with leading '--' to be set.`
		6868
		6869	`* makefile.pl directive: SetList`
		6870	`Added this directive to formalise the creation and processing of lists`
		6871	`within the makefiles.`
		6872	`Options:`
		6873	`--NoWarn Disable name clash warnings`
		6874	`--Project=xxxx[,xxxx]+ Add to list in selected projects`
		6875	`--Unique Add only if not already present`
		6876	`--Clear Clear list, before adding new items`
		6877	`--Append Append items to list (default)`
		6878	`-- Disable/Enable option parsing`
		6879	`Useage:`
		6880
		6881	`SetList ('*', 'LibList', 'lib1', 'lib2', '--Project=syd');`
		6882	`SharedLib ('*', 'MyDLL', @OBJS, @LibList );`
		6883
		6884	`* Makefile.pl directive: RunTest`
		6885	`Corrected the option of the --CopyIn=file option where the specified file`
		6886	`is not in the current directory.`
		6887
		6888	`* Jats Command: ant'`
		6889	`This command has been extended to make use of the -buildfile=xxxx option`
		6890	`to allow multiple buildfiles to be differentiated.`
		6891
		6892	`eg: jats -buildfile=MyPackage ant`
		6893
		6894	`* TOOLSET: DAFBR Compiler support`
		6895	`Modified the toolset to support an optimisation feature of the next`
		6896	`generation of the daf_br_compiler. These will be enabled if the major version`
		6897	`of the package containing the compiler is greater the "1". ie: 2.0.0.cr`
		6898
		6899	`* Interface helper files: set_XXXX.bat/.sh`
		6900	`Added provision to process user command arguments.`
		6901	`Thus`
		6902
		6903	`set_WIN32.bat prog`
		6904
		6905	`will set the WIN32 environment and run the command: prog`
		6906

		6908	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6909	`Version: JATS_2.52.2 Released: 30-Mar-06`
		6910	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6911	`Major changes:`
		6912
		6913	`Minor changes:`
		6914	`* Addressed issue with BUILDNAME, an internal variable.`
		6915	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user build.pl's they need to be`
		6916	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a project`
		6917	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		6918	`$(BUILDNAME) contains two or three space seperated fields - always`
		6919
		6920	`* m16c Toolset - MCRFirmware`
		6921	`Force the generation of .thx and payload files when the .bin files are`
		6922	`created. Previously this only occured in the packaging phase.`
		6923
		6924	`Internal changes:`
		6925	`* JATS toolsets`
		6926	`Added a feature to allow a toolset to flag additional files that get created`
		6927	`as a part of a "Prog". This allows a "Prog" definition to generate a`
		6928	`number of files, some which may be packaged.`
		6929
		6930	`Previously such files where only generated during the packaging phase. Now`
		6931	`they will be generated during the make_prog phase - with the other programs.`
		6932
		6933	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6934	`Version: JATS_2.52.1 Released: 29-Mar-06`
		6935	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6936	`Major changes:`
		6937	`* Jats command: etool`
		6938	`Extended to allow execution of deployment tools. This allows the deployment`
		6939	`tools to use the JATS core perl modules.`
		6940
		6941	`* Address issues with the use of BUILDVER and ScmBuildVer`
		6942	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user makefile.pl's they need to be`
		6943	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a projectt`
		6944	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		6945	`$(BUILDVERSION) contains the project extension - always`
		6946	`$ScmBuildVersion does not contain a project extension - always`
		6947
		6948	`Minor changes:`
		6949
		6950
		6951	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6952	`Version: JATS_2.52.0 Released: 27-Mar-06`
		6953	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6954	`Major changes:`
		6955	`* JATS environment variables`
		6956	`Added GBE_DPKG_STORE`
		6957	`Optionally addresses a dpkg_archive store. This is intended to allow`
		6958	`read only access to a remote repository. The GBE_DPKG_STORE will be`
		6959	`searched after GBE_DPKG. It will be searched last. JATS, be default,`
		6960	`will not publish packages in this repository.`
		6961
		6962	`Uses: Seed repository for a complete build`
		6963	`Remote repository`
		6964
		6965	`Added GBE_DPLY`
		6966	`Optionally addresses a Deployment Archive. This is only used in the`
		6967	`placement of deployment packages. This value may be project specific.`
		6968
		6969	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		6970	`Changes the mechanism used to link against the compiler RTL.`
		6971	`Previously the RTL was included multiple times in the link order. This`
		6972	`created problem with daf_dsi as the function 'time()' was being satisfied by`
		6973	`the RTL before being satisfied by the user libraries.`
		6974
		6975	`The compiler RTL is now treated as a library of last resort. It will be`
		6976	`processed once and it will be processed last.`
		6977
		6978
		6979	`Minor changes:`
		6980	`* JATS utility: build`
		6981	`* JATS utility: cache_dpkg`
		6982	`Extended the package search algorithm to locate a package within`
		6983	`GBE_DPKG_STORE. This archive will be searched last.`
		6984
		6985	`* JATS utility: gen_cots`
		6986	`Ensure label is not locked`
		6987	`Add option to allow user to specify source directory other than a package`
		6988	`that already exists in dpkg_archive.`
		6989
		6990	`* JATS directive: PackageFile`
		6991	`Now supports --Prod and --Debug options to limit the packaging process`
		6992	`to a specific type of build.`
		6993
		6994	`* JATS directive: GenerateFiles and RunTests`
		6995	`Added a --PackageInfo() replacement tag to allow package version information`
		6996	`to be extracted and passed to generator programs.`
		6997	`ie: --PackageInfo(sysbasetypes,syd,--fullversion)`
		6998
		6999	`Extended the --PackageBase() replacement tag to work with packages such as`
		7000	`sysbasetypes, where there is a .cr and a .syd type.`
		7001	`ie: --PackageBase(sysbasetypes,syd)`
		7002
		7003	`* JATS utility: release`
		7004	`Under windows, ensure that the directory C:\Clearcase exists. There have`
		7005	`been installations of Clearcase where this is directory does not exist.`
		7006
		7007	`* JATS utility: label`
		7008	`Added option: "-comment=Text" to allow a comment to be added to a label,`
		7009	`when it is being created.`
		7010
		7011	`Internal Changes`
		7012	`* JATS utility: create_dpkg`
		7013	`Refactored code to use JATS DescPkg class.`
		7014
		7015	`Added options to allow packaging to the various archives. This is of no use`
		7016	`to the normal developer, but will be used within the complete build system.`
		7017
		7018	`* Factored out the parsing of the BuildName directive`
		7019	`This process was being done in 3 locations - and there were getting`
		7020	`different results.`
		7021
		7022	`* ToolsetRequire directive`
		7023	`This has been extended to allow JATS to locate Toolset extensions within`
		7024	`packages. They should be placed within the tool/scripts directory`
		7025
		7026	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7027	`Version: JATS_2.51.0 Released: 15-Mar-06`

		7036	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7037	`Major changes:`
		7038	`* WIN32 utilities`
		7039	`Replaced a number of the Windows utilities ( cp, rm, mv ...)`
		7040	`with versions from the GNUWin32 project.`
		7041
		7042	`The 'cp' previously used could not recursively copy large directories`
		7043	`under Windows Server 2003, when both the source and destination are on the`
		7044	`same drive. ( dpkg_cache of ace ).`
		7045
		7046	`Minor changes:`
		7047	`* BuildVersion`
		7048	`The definition of VERSION_BUILD within the generated version-defs.h file`
		7049	`will have leading zeros removed, thus allowing it to be used within a 'C'`
		7050	`program without the number being interpreted as an octal constant.`
		7051
		7052	`The string form (VERSION_BUILD_STR) will retain the zeros.`
		7053
		7054	`* Unix Builds`
		7055	`Corrected several issues encountered when specifying the name of a static`
		7056	`library or a shared library.`
		7057
		7058	`JATS will prepend 'lib' to the user specified library name. Problems occurred`
		7059	`when the user specified a library name that started with 'lib'. Now, on Unix`
		7060	`systems, JATS will only prepend 'lib' if the library name does not already`
		7061	`start with 'lib'.`
		7062
		7063	`* BuildPkgArchive`
		7064	`Since 2.45.0 JATS will only transfer files for the BuildPkgArchive, if`
		7065	`they have not already been transferred. Added a test for the source`
		7066	`package being updated and then forceing the copy to be repeated.`
		7067
		7068	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7069	`Version: JATS_2.49.0 Released: 10-Feb-06`
		7070	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7071	`Major changes:`
		7072	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		7073	`Corrected a problem with the dependencies between a .REL file and the target`
		7074	`THX file. If the .REL files was modified the output THX file did not get`
		7075	`regenerated. This was only a problem in cases where the .REL file was`
		7076	`being manually maintained.`
		7077
		7078
		7079	`Minor changes:`
		7080	`* MakeAnt directive`
		7081	`Introduced a check to ensure that this directive is only used with a toolset`
		7082	`that can handle an 'ant' build file. Currently only the JAVA toolset`
		7083	`supports ANT builds.`
		7084
		7085	`* BuildPkgArchive directive`
		7086	`Correct problem in the caching of BuildPkgArchive packages in the case where`
		7087	`there is no GBE_DPKG_LOCAL on the machine.`
		7088
		7089	`* Label utility`
		7090	`Added a 'files=filename,filename' option to allow only specified`
		7091	`files to be labeled.`
		7092

		7094	`Corrected problem in which Java Manifest files were not parsed correctly`
		7095	`on Solaris.`
		7096
		7097	`* Generated makefiles`
		7098	`Fix a bug with the CompilerOptions that allowed a '0' definition to be set to`
		7099	`nothing.`
		7100
		7101	`* MOS Toolset`
		7102	`Added 'CompileOptions' of CcSupervisor.`
		7103	`This will set a MOS internal definition suitable for building specialised`
		7104	`modules.`
		7105
		7106	`* Utility: gen_cots`
		7107	`This utility will create a JATS buildable package froma dpkg_archive entry`
		7108	`and then check it in under clearcase.`
		7109
		7110	`JATS etool gen_cots -man will provide only help.`

		7122	`* DEVI addressed`
		7123	`DEVI-022055 JATS builds DLLs with wrong copyright symbol in version resource`
5710	dpurdie	7124	`DEVI-022054 JATS puts "VIX Group test" in Product Name of Windows resource`
227	dpurdie	7125
		7126	`* Utility: release (cbuild)`
		7127	`Added an option to create a view configured to work with a branching`
		7128	`rule. A single branch can be named with the -branch option. eg:`
		7129
		7130	`jats release -extract 'label' -branch SITS_LEGACY_BRANCH`
		7131
		7132	`will create a view based on the named label, but suitable for creating`
		7133	`a patch for Sydney Legacy work.`
		7134
		7135	`* RunTest directive`
		7136	`The 'PATH' that the test uses is extended to allow access to programs that have`
		7137	`been installed with a InstallProg directive. This allows a test script to`
		7138	`test a program that is generated elsewhere within the package.`
		7139
		7140	`* PackageFile, Option --DirTree`
		7141	`Support for filenames that contain a "$" or a ' ' within the`
		7142	`--DirTree option. Implemented to allow entire JAVA class trees to be`
		7143	`packaged under JATS`
		7144
		7145	`Note: In general the use of a $ and space within a filename is not`
		7146	`supported within JATS.`
		7147
		7148	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7149	`Added an eprog option. The allows any program to be run within the`
		7150	`sanitized environment provided by JATS.`
		7151
		7152	`The specified program may be in the current directory or the user's`
		7153	`PATH. If the program is a perl script then it will be run with the`
		7154	`JATS perl interpreter, otherwise it will be processed by the system.`
		7155
		7156	`Eg: jats eprog myscript arg1 arg2`
		7157	`Eg: jats ant`
		7158
		7159	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7160	`Added an 'ant' command. ( "jats ant" )`
		7161
5710	dpurdie	7162	`This will run an VIX ANT build by scanning the current directory for a file`
227	dpurdie	7163	`called <ProjectName>depends.xml and then looking the a file called`
		7164	`<ProjectName>.xml. Jats will then create 'auto.xml' based on the`
		7165	`<ProjectName>depends.xml file and use ant to invoke the`
		7166	`<ProjectName>.xml file.`
		7167
5710	dpurdie	7168	`If the VIX build files cannot be found then ant is simply run and it will`
227	dpurdie	7169	`expect a build.pl file.`
		7170
		7171	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7172	`Force the environment variable PERL5INC to be unset.`
		7173
		7174	`* Jats utility: create_dpkg`

		7177
		7178	`* Utility: gen_winrc (DEVI-022054)`
		7179	`Added a "'-product=text'" option to allow the product name to be specified.`
		7180
		7181	`* Build files`
		7182	`Handle the java generated descpkg files. These are a Manifest format with`
5710	dpurdie	7183	`VIX extensions.`

		7190	`Correct a problem in the generation of version.c`
		7191	`The function GetModuleInfo() would return a string with a trailing`

		7205	`ie:`
		7206	`BuildProduct ( 'OBFTP,--Uses=TP5', 'MOSCF' );`
		7207
		7208	`This will create a OBFTP_MOSCF platform that will 'use' TP5`
		7209	`headers and libraries if none are specifically provided for the`
		7210	`OBFTP. It is the users responsibily to ensure that the two build`
		7211	`environments are compatible.`

		7213
		7214	`Minor changes:`
		7215	`* BuildName option`
		7216	`Modifications to allow the creation of COTS packages with buildnames`
5710	dpurdie	7217	`that do not confirm to the VIX naming scheme (--RelaxedVersion).`
227	dpurdie	7218
		7219	`* jats.bat`
		7220	`Ensure that GBE_BIN is not defined`
		7221	`It will be set by the jats.pl to a fully qualified path.`
		7222
		7223	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7224	`Version: JATS_2.45.0 Released: 29-Nov-05`
		7225	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7226	`Major changes:`
		7227	`* BuildPkgArchive directive`
		7228	`The operation of the BuildPkgArchive directive has been modified`
		7229	`so that a package will only be installed once. This significantly`
		7230	`speeds up multiple 'build' operations.`
		7231
		7232	`If the package is being extracted from the 'local archive', then`
		7233	`this mechanism is suppressed as packages in the local archive are`
		7234	`considered as under development and are subject to change.`
		7235
		7236	`If package cache is being refreshed, then the package will be`
		7237	`installed a second time. Thus it is possible to force the package to`
		7238	`be transferred into the 'interface' directory.`
		7239
		7240	`A BuildTags directory is used to track packages that have been`
		7241	`transferred.`
		7242
		7243	`* Internal changes to factor common code into a group of packages.`
		7244	`See notes below.`
		7245
		7246	`* WIN32 toolset`
		7247	`Allow the Microsoft preprocessor directive #import to operate`
		7248	`correctly.`
		7249
		7250	`Export the complete library search path into the build environment`
		7251	`for all Microsoft command, not just the linker and library commands.`
		7252
		7253	`* BuildVersion`
		7254	`Modifications to allow the generation of version files for C#`
		7255	`The mechanism has been extended to allow version information for`
		7256	`other langauges as needed.`
		7257
		7258
		7259	`Minor changes:`
		7260	`* Utility: gen_winrc.pl`
		7261	`Will extracted build number from the patch number, if present.`
		7262	`This information will be available to be placed into the generation`
		7263	`version strings.`
		7264
		7265	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		7266	`Fixed a problem detecting programs that were not in the local`
		7267	`package or an imported package.`
		7268
		7269	`* Toolsets: MOS_MRI`
		7270	`Generate an error if required tools are not found.`
		7271	`Previously this condition would generate a warning.`
		7272
		7273	`* BuildPkgArchive and LinkPkgArchive directives`
		7274	`Ensure that packages are only included once. The previous check`
		7275	`was half-hearted and could allow multiple packages of the same`
		7276	`version to be included. This could result in badly formed`
		7277	`makefiles and strange error messages.`
		7278
		7279	`Internal Changes`
		7280	`* Started to factor out internal packages and place them into a common`
		7281	`directory. This will allow common error handling thoughout the suite`
		7282	`of utilities.`
		7283
		7284	`Modified all utilities to utilize the common error reporting`
		7285	`functions.`
		7286
		7287	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7288	`Version: JATS_2.44.0 Released: 18-Nov-05`
		7289	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7290	`Major changes:`
		7291	`* Generated makefiles`
		7292	`Modified the windows shell to remove the use of the EXTENDED_LINE`
		7293	`cache. This did not work. Modified the extend.lst file to ensure`
		7294	`that sed did not process its arguments.`
		7295
		7296	`This has been done to address a problem seen within test scripts`
		7297	`within unit tests that use wildcard expansion. The windows shell was`
		7298	`incorrectly processing:`
		7299	`sed '-es~.*WIN32~~'`
		7300	`The '.*' construct was being seen as a wildcard and the shell was`
		7301	`then putting the argument into a command file - it was totally`
		7302	`confused.`
		7303
		7304	`NOTE: Attempted to remove use of EXTENDED_LINE, but this caused a`
		7305	`breakage with the DOS based gcc compiler( ie:H8S and others).`
		7306	`The construct`
		7307	`-D__SOURCE__=\"name\"`
		7308	`was corrupted somewhere. If the command is put in a command file,`
		7309	`then it works.`
		7310
		7311	`* MakeAnt directive`
		7312	`Added option: --GeneratedFile=PathOfFile`
		7313
		7314	`This option has the following effects`
		7315	`1) Marks the file a source file. It is then known to JATS and`
		7316	`can be used installed and manipulated.`
		7317
		7318	`2) Schedules the processing of the ANT build to be done`
		7319	`early - in the generated files phase.`
		7320
		7321	`Intended use. The creation of packages with a JNI. The Java`
		7322	`component needs to generate a header file early.`
		7323
		7324
		7325	`Minor changes:`
		7326	`* JATS post-installation script`
		7327	`Flag deployment tools and libraries as executable.`
		7328
		7329	`* Detection of extension type is case insensitive for non-unix`
		7330	`systems. Thus .h and .H files will considered header files in`
		7331	`windows.`
		7332
		7333	`* Build.pl rewrite tool`
		7334	`Handle all variants of BuildName`
		7335
		7336	`* Jats wrapper script`
		7337	`Generate an error if the JATS configuration variables are not usable`
		7338	`1) Contain spaces`
		7339	`2) Start with a // - Remote drives must be mapped`
		7340
		7341	`* Toolset`
		7342	`Added a 'LINUX' platform.`
		7343
		7344	`* JAVA toolset`
		7345	`Ensure the that build file passed via MakeAnt contains the following`
		7346	`directive:`
		7347
		7348	`includeAntRuntime="off"'`
		7349
		7350	`This MUST be used to ensure that ANT's classpath is not passed to`
		7351	`the java compiler thus ensuring that the compiler does not use ANT's`
		7352	`version of any JAR files that have not been specified by the user.`
		7353
		7354	`* GCC Toolset`
		7355	`Use -Map name to create map files as needed for GCC under Debian`
		7356
		7357	`* Makefile generation`
		7358	`When packages are used by name to resolve package location JATS`
		7359	`has been modified to use the package name specified by the user.`
		7360	`Previously JATS would use the package name found within the`
		7361	`descpkg file. In cases where the descpkg file was badly formed the`
		7362	`package could not be used.`
		7363
		7364	`* Unit Tests`
		7365	`The following environment variables are set:`
		7366
		7367	`GBE_TYPE - The type of build. Debug or production. This`
		7368	`will be set to either a 'P' or 'D'`
		7369
		7370	`GBE_HOST - The host machine we are running on.`
		7371	`This will be set to 'WIN' or Unix'`
		7372
		7373	`These variable should assist in the production of test scripts.`
		7374
		7375	`* New makefile.pl directive: SetValue`
		7376
		7377
		7378	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7379	`Version: JATS_2.43.0 Released: 01-Nov-05`
		7380	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7381	`Major changes:`
		7382	`* New Platform : "MCR" using the Mitsubishi m16c compiler.`
		7383
		7384	`Special features of this toolset.`
		7385	`1) A .THX source file will be converted to an obtect file`
		7386	`This allows processing of fonts within a THX file to be`
		7387	`incorporated within the target image.`
		7388
		7389	`2) Prog directive extensions:`
		7390	`--Set=Name=Value`
		7391	`The 'Name' is set to 'Value' at link time.`
		7392	`This allows the location of program segments to be set`
		7393
		7394	`--Ref=name`
		7395	`The name of a Release file. If provided, it will be used`
		7396	`to provide information that will be placed within the`
		7397	`THX header. The version number will be ignored. It`
		7398	`will be taken from the build version number.`
		7399
		7400	`Minor changes:`
		7401	`* MOS Toolset`
		7402	`Create the VisionClick files when the THX file is created.`
		7403	`Previously the files were created when the THX was installed or`
		7404	`packaged.`
		7405
		7406	`* Src directive`
		7407	`No generates a warning if no source files are located within the`
		7408	`directive. This is normally the result of a missing platform`
		7409	`specifier.`
		7410
		7411	`* WIN32 runtime support`
		7412	`Added the following 'Unix' style utilities to assist in testing.`
		7413	`1) od - dump files in octal and other formats`
		7414	`2) cmp - compare two files byte by byte`
		7415
		7416	`Internal:`
		7417	`Added an extension to allow the target toolset to handle the "Prog"`
		7418	`dependancy generation if required. This allow complex program`
		7419	`generation mechanisms to be handled by the toolset.`
		7420
		7421	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7422	`Version: JATS_2.42.0 Released: 19-Oct-05`
		7423	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7424	`Major changes:`
		7425	`* BuildAlias directive`
		7426	`Added options.`
		7427	`--Define - Does not create implicit platforms`
		7428	`--Target - Redeclares the alais as the list of all`
		7429	`platforms that are based on a given target or`
		7430	`targets.`
		7431	`Eg:`
		7432	`BuildAlias ( 'LMOS,--Target', 'LMOS_WIN32', 'LMOS_linux_armv4' );`
		7433	`BuildProduct ( 'GAK', 'LMOS', 'MOS68K', 'MOSCF' );`
		7434	`BuildProduct ( 'PCP', 'LMOS', 'MOS68K' );`
		7435
		7436	`Will export an alias of LMOS that can be used within makefile.pl's`
		7437	`that will be the list of all platforms that have a target of`
		7438	`'LMOS_WIN32' or 'LMOS_linux_armv4'.`
		7439
		7440	`Note the dual use of LMOS within the example. This is intentional.`
		7441	`The LMOS alias is used within the BuildProduct to simplify the`
		7442	`specification of all the LMOS targets.`
		7443
		7444
		7445	`Minor changes:`
		7446	`* Label utility`
		7447	`Will generate a warning message if it labels more than one`
		7448	`build.pl file`
		7449
		7450	`* Package directives. PackageFile.`
		7451	`Corrected a problem with wildcard expansion in which a --FilterIn`
		7452	`needed to be specified in order for the --FilterOut to operate.`
		7453	`Now all files in the tree are considered 'in' unless modified by the`
		7454	`--FilterIn option.`
		7455
		7456	`* jats release (cbuilder) utility`
		7457	`Correct use of the -prodOnly and -debugOnly flags.`
		7458	`The full name was not accepted; -debug and -prod was.`
		7459
		7460	`* Location of descpkg file`
		7461	`All makefile.pl's now know where the package descpkg file was`
		7462	`created. This simplifies the process og packaging this file as it`
		7463	`can be done within any makefile.pl.`
		7464
		7465	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7466	`Version: JATS_2.41.0 Released: 27-Sep-05`
		7467	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7468	`Major changes:`
		7469	`* RunTest directive`
		7470	`Extended the options and operation of RunTest`
		7471	`Additional options`
		7472	`--CopyIn=file`
		7473	`This will copy the specified file into the BIN directory before`
		7474	`the test is run. The file will be marked as executable. This`
		7475	`allows scripts and configuration files to be transferred into`
		7476	`the test area.`
		7477
		7478	`Additional operations`
		7479	`The arguments passed to the script/program allow a number of`
		7480	`transformations, similar to GenerateFiles. Transforms`
		7481	`--File(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a known file`
		7482	`--Local(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a file that has been Installed`
		7483	`--PackageBase(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a Package`
		7484	`Allows flags:`
		7485	`--dir - directory part of the pathname`
		7486	`--file - file part of the pathname`
		7487	`--abspath - as an absolute path`
		7488	`--absdrive - as an absolute path with drive letter (Windows)`
		7489
		7490	`Files and directories are prerequisites of the test. Their`
		7491	`existence is tested.`
		7492
		7493	`* Packaging Directives`
		7494	`Added a --Derived option to support the packaging of derived targets`
		7495	`such as LMOS.`
		7496
		7497	`PackageHdr ('*', 'file1.h', '--Derived=LMOS');`
		7498
		7499	`Will place file1.h into .../include/LMOS_WIN32`

		7502
		7503	`Will place file1.h into .../include/LMOS_WIN32/sys`
		7504
		7505	`* JAVA 1.4 and 1.5`
		7506	`Added support to the JATS JAVA platform to allow the user to specify`
		7507	`the version of Java to be used to build a package.`
		7508
		7509	`BuildPlatforms ( 'JAVA,--Version=1.5' );`
		7510
		7511	`The default will use the default machine version of JAVA.`
		7512	`This may not be sutable for all packages.`
		7513
		7514	`Non-default versions of JAVA require that an environment variable be`
		7515	`set to the root of the JDK directory. These are:`
		7516
		7517	`JAVA_HOME_1_4`
		7518	`JAVA_HOME_1_5`
		7519
		7520	`Minor changes:`
		7521	`* Script directive`
		7522	`Scripts may be copied into the BIN directory for use by a test.`
		7523	`These scripts are now always marked as executable.`
		7524
		7525	`* JATS environment`
		7526	`Ensure that all programs run under JATS in Windows have an uppercase`
		7527	`COMSPEC envvar. Windows appears to define a mixed case one. Fixed in`
		7528	`the JATS wrapper script.`
		7529
		7530	`* Label utility`
		7531	`Added -[no]checkout to control the labeling of checked out files.`
		7532	`There are three modes of operation:`
		7533	`1) -nocheckout Checked out files are not labeled`
		7534	`2) -checkout Only checked out files are labeled`
		7535	`3) Neither All files are labeled.`

		7546	`This options retains the locked state of a label.`
		7547
		7548	`* AVR_IAR toolset`
		7549	`Extended the 'Prog' directive to allow a Program Loader to be`
		7550	`added to a program as it is created. The option is:`
		7551	`--ProgLoader=name`
		7552
		7553	`* Package directives. PackageFile`
		7554	`Added support for packaging of directory trees.`
		7555	`Options to do this are:`

		7558	`--FilterIn=regexp`
		7559	`--StripDir`
		7560
		7561	`Only a single directory can be specified.`
		7562	`Multiple filters are allowed.`
		7563	`The directories must be within the current directory. It is not`
		7564	`possible to search outside the subdirectory tree below the makefile.`
		7565
		7566	`The filters allow elements within the directory to be selected.`
		7567	`The filters are regular expressions. Examples:`
		7568
		7569	`'--FilterIn=\.h$' - Select all files ending with .h`
		7570	`'--FilterOut=MyHeader.h' - Except this one`
		7571
		7572	`The --StripDir option will remove the TreeDir directory from the`
		7573	`files. This allows the top level directory to be stripped off.`
		7574
		7575
		7576	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7577	`Version: JATS_2.39.0 Released: 14-Sep-05`
		7578	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7579	`Major changes:`
		7580	`* Make commands`
		7581	`Consolidated the parsing of the OPTIONS arguments.`
		7582
		7583	`The filter and nofilter options are globally applied to all tools`
		7584	`sets. ie: jats make debug OPTIONS=nofilter`
		7585

		7592	`Replaced the use of c:\WINDOWS and c:\Program Files with suitable`
		7593	`variables and overrides.`
		7594
		7595	`The make_init target is always run.`

		7597	`compiler sanity testing, but had was not being reliably run.`
		7598
		7599	`* Deployment`
		7600	`Suppress testing of compiler existence when used in conjunction`
		7601	`with deployment operations.`
		7602
		7603	`* Release utility`
		7604	`Add options to build only the debug or the production versions.`
		7605	`The default is to build both. Note: User option may be further`
		7606	`restricted by options within the build.`
		7607
		7608	`* PackageLib, InstallLib and MergeLib directives in makefile.pl`
		7609	`The use of @LIBS and @MLIBS in unix systems was causing a`
		7610	`problem as these variables already had a 'lib' prepended to the`
		7611	`list of libraries. These directives would add another 'lib' to the`
		7612	`list of libraries under unix causing a mismatch.`
		7613
		7614	`Corrected by stripping liblib from the names within these`
		7615	`directives.`
		7616
		7617	`* MakeProject directive`
		7618	`If the project build fails the log file was not being displayed`
		7619	`because 'make' stops when a command fails.`
		7620
		7621	`The MakeProject operations have been modified to ensure that the`
		7622	`log file is always displayed. The exit code of the build command`
		7623	`is preserved.`
		7624
		7625	`* Auto build utility jats-rewrite.pl`
		7626	`Modified to support the rewrite of Java 'using' and 'project'`
		7627	`statements.`
		7628
		7629	`* Mugfile generation`
		7630	`Added a --ThxDir=xxxx option to allow the THX and load files to`

		7643	`number.`
		7644
		7645	`Minor changes:`
		7646	`* AddFlags directives`
		7647	`Added a --NoWarn option that will suppress the warning of`
		7648	`duplicate flags being added.`
		7649
		7650	`* GBE_CORE environment variable (Windows)`
		7651	`Ensure that GBE_CORE has a driver letter. This allows use of JATS`
		7652	`loaded into the same dynamic view as the user code.`
		7653
		7654	`* Mug File Generation`
		7655	`Added support to allow load files to include other load files.`
		7656
		7657	`* 'cbuild' or 'release' command`
		7658	`Added a -latestroot=xxxx option. This is a work around for the`
		7659	`problem where the root level directory in the VOB has not been`
		7660	`labeled. After using this switch add the label to the root`
		7661	`directory.`
		7662
		7663	`The need to use this this switch indicates that the view is NOT`
		7664	`reproducible.`

		7669	`Major changes:`
		7670	`* jats.bat and jats.sh`
		7671	`Changes to include GBE_DPKG and GBE_DPKG_CACHE.`
		7672	`Most importantly GBE_DPKG must be a single directory. It is no`
		7673	`longer a list of directories.`
		7674
		7675	`Removal of the setup of Microsoft Visual Studio 6. This is now`
		7676	`done within the toolset.`
		7677
		7678	`*** Update your jats.bat to follow the format in this release`
		7679
		7680	`* JATS environment variables`

		7682	`GBE_DPKG - Now the MASTER dpkg_archive`
		7683	`Previously was a list that included the`
		7684	`dpkg_archive cache.`
		7685

		7697	`for WIN32 derived families due to the generation of a list of`
		7698	`libraries. The list now observes Product hierarchy.`
		7699
		7700	`* Utility: release (cbuilder)`

227	dpurdie	7728	`-- Auto.`
		7729

		7903	`* Support for Windows DLLs`
		7904	`When building a WIN32 target the file interface/set_WIN32.bat is`

		7987	`If whitespace did exist then the makefile.pl would not do what`

		8156	`Version: JATS_2.26.0 Released: 03-May-05`
		8157	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8158	`Major changes:`
		8159	`* WIN32 Toolset`
		8160	`Correct a problem linking in required / correct libraries for`
		8161	`use with multithreaded modes.`
		8162
		8163	`* Complete the support for Global build options of --OnlyDebug and`
		8164	`--OnlyProd.`
		8165
		8166	`These options can now be provided in the "Platform" directive`
		8167	`within the makefile.pl.`
		8168
		8169	`Minor changes:`
		8170	`* Platform directive within makefile.pl`
		8171	`These use of the "*" platform specifier has been modified such`
		8172	`that options provided within the directive will be added to all`
		8173	`platforms.`
		8174
		8175	`eg: Platform ('*', '--OnlyProduction' );`
		8176
		8177	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8178	`Version: JATS_2.25.0 Released: 29-Apr-05`
		8179	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8180	`Major changes:`
		8181	`* Correct problem in handling the SOLARIS_SPARC platform.`
		8182	`The SOLARIS platform is a bit of a kludge for backward`
		8183	`compatibility. JATS was not differentiating between SOLARIS and`
		8184	`SOLARIS_SPARC correctly.`
		8185
		8186	`* Preliminary Support`
		8187	`Global build options of --OnlyDebug and --OnlyProd, which are`
		8188	`mutually exclusive. These may between specified in the build.pl`
		8189	`file as build arguments in any of the three standard mechanism.`
		8190
		8191	`BuildPlatforms ( 'SOLARIS', '--OnlyDebug' );`
		8192	`BuildProduct ( 'GAK', 'MOS68K,--OnlyProduction' );`
		8193	`BuildArgument ( 'WIN', '--OnlyProduction' );`
		8194
		8195	`These options limit processing to either Production or Debug`
		8196	`building. The default build will build both.`
		8197
		8198	`Minor changes:`
		8199	`* Extended the search path that JATS will use attempting to locate`
		8200	`a build.pl file. JATS will now look in ., build and build/jats`
		8201	`directories in the current directory and 3 directories up.`
		8202
		8203	`* WCEX86A420 toolset`
		8204	`Added suitable libflags entry. Prevents the warning:`
		8205	warning: undefined variable `WCE_LIBFLAGS'

		8211	`Major changes:`
		8212	`* PackageLib and PackageProg directives now have a --Extra=xxx[,xxx]`
		8213	`option. Where xxx can be one or more of: none stub map lint debug`
		8214	`or all.`
		8215
		8216	`This option may be used to limit the files that are packaged with`
		8217	`the library or program.`
		8218
		8219	`Eg: PackageLib ('MOS', 'MyThx', '--Extra=none' );`
		8220
		8221	`Will only package the .thx file. It will not package the stub`
		8222	`library or any debug files.`
		8223
		8224	`* GenerateFiles`
		8225	`All processed arguments now support two options.`
		8226
		8227	`ie: --Prerequisite(xxxx,--dir)`
		8228	`directory in which the prereq file is found`
		8229
		8230	`ie: --Prerequisite(xxxx,--file)`
		8231	`The filename of the prereq file`
		8232
		8233	`* LinkPkgArchive and BuildPkgArchive will cause the build to fail if`
		8234	`the required package is not available. A "--package" option, to`
		8235	`the build command, will prevent this behaviour.`
		8236
		8237
		8238	`Minor changes:`
		8239	`* create_dpkg utility`
		8240	`Touch descpkg files when packages are merged. This will allow`
		8241	`utilities that use the timestamp of this file to determine that`
		8242	`the package has been altered.`
		8243
		8244	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`

		8259	`MRI68K. Now supports the Microtec 5.1 68k compiler`
		8260
		8261	`Minor changes:`
		8262	`* "cbuild" or "release" command now has a -merge option to allow`
		8263	`builds from different machines to be merged into dpkg_archive.`
		8264
		8265	`The default operation is to replace the package indpkg_archive.`
		8266
		8267	`* Simplify the use of GBE_BUILDFILTER`
		8268	`GBE_BUILDFILTER should be used to limit the creation of makefiles`
		8269	`to those that are supported by the underlying hardware.`
		8270
		8271	`The change allows the construct`
		8272	`GBE_BUILDFILTER=SOLARIS --TARGET=SOLARIS`
		8273	`to be replaced by the simpler`
		8274	`GBE_BUILDFILTER=SOLARIS`
		8275
		8276	`The default operation is to allow or disallow all TARGETS of the`
		8277	`specified name.`

		8297	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8298	`Major changes:`
		8299	`* The "package.pl" file.`
		8300	`Setting $Pbase to "." is now supported and will result in the`
		8301	`package name being taken from the build name`
		8302
		8303	`It is an error to set Pbase to a value other than "." or the`
		8304	`package Build Name.`
		8305
		8306	`Minor changes:`
		8307	`* create_dpkg utility`

		8316	`* Dependancy generator`
		8317	`Correct two common situations`
		8318	`1) // Style comments. The following line was ignored`
		8319	`2) Allow preprocessor directives to be indents. This is not`
		8320	`ansi, but is often done.`
		8321
		8322	`* GCC toolset`
		8323	`Corrected operation of the C++ compiler. The object file was not`
		8324	`being created in the correct place.`
		8325
		8326	`* jats "label"`
		8327	`The -auto -clone options allow a label to be created if its not`
		8328	`present. Previously this would label all files in the VOB.`

		8339	`be transferred to the "pkg" directory.`
		8340
		8341	`If there are no directores of the form "pkg.xxxxx" then the entire`
		8342	`pkg directory will be transferred.`
		8343
		8344	`* Transfer to dpkg_acrhive`
		8345	`Corrected a problem in which a file with the same name as the`
		8346	`package was not being transferred.`
		8347
		8348	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8349	`Version: JATS_2.17.0 Released: 06-Apr-05`

		8356	`The platform SOLARIS_I386 has been created to build on this target`
		8357	`with the GCC compiler.`
		8358
		8359	`The JATS startup shell has been modified to allow specfic values`
		8360	`to be imported from the environment. Under Unix such values may`
		8361	`need to be specified in the /etc/profile file.`
		8362
		8363	`Minor changes:`
		8364	`* The InstallHdr, InstallLib, InstallJar and InstallProd directives`

		8389
		8390	`* SubDir - in makefile.pl`
		8391	`It is now an error if the specified subdirectory does not exist`
		8392	`and does not contain the file "makefile.pl".`
		8393
		8394	`* Jats wrapper`
		8395	`Added a "-locate" option to force JATS to locate the build.pl file`
		8396	`and then change to the containing directory before execution`
		8397	`further commands.`
		8398
		8399	`Minor changes:`
		8400	`* WinCe and Win32 toolsets`
		8401	`Corrected a problem in the generation of .dep files used in the`

		8405	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8406	`Version: JATS_2.15.0 Released: 22-Mar-05`
		8407	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8408	`Major changes:`
		8409	`* WIN32 and WinCE Toolset. New CompileOptions`
		8410	`NoPDB - Disable the generation of PDBs`
		8411	`PDB - Enable the generation of PDBs (default).`
		8412
		8413	`These options operation affect all components within the`
		8414	`makefile.pl. If the directive is used within the common makefile.pl`
		8415	`then they will affect all components within the build.`
		8416
		8417	`Note: It is not possible to create a merged library in which some`
		8418	`of the component libraries have PDB's and some do not.`
		8419
		8420	`Minor changes:`
		8421
		8422	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8423	`Version: JATS_2.14.0 Released: 18-Mar-05`
		8424	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8425	`Major changes:`

		8430	`* gen_winrc tool can add an icon to a program.`
		8431	`The utility supports -icon=filename.ico`
		8432
		8433	`* The JATS wrapper script command "prod" to build and package the`
		8434	`production parts. This is similar to the "dev" command.`
		8435
		8436	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8437	`Version: JATS_2.13.0 Released: 18-Mar-05`
		8438	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8439	`Major changes:`
		8440	`* Modified the order in which the makefiles passes operate. Merged`
		8441	`the make_shlib and the install_shlib into one phase. The`
		8442	`implication of this is that Shared Libraries that are created can`
		8443	`"installed" so that other shared libraries can link against them.`
		8444	`The order in which the makefile.pl's are processed is important as`
		8445	`this is the order in which the libraries will be created and`
		8446	`installed.`
		8447
		8448	`This solution does not handle mutual shared libraries: two shared`
		8449	`libraries that depend on each other.`
		8450
		8451	`This is an issue only in Solaris and Linux systems that do not`
		8452	`generate separate stub libraries to link against.`
		8453
		8454	`Minor changes:`
		8455	`* WIN32 and WinCE Toolsets`
		8456	`Building up resources. The RC compiler can now locate resource files`
		8457	`in the "local" and "interface" directory.`
		8458
		8459	`* The version.c, version.h and descpkg files will be created in the`
		8460	`first directory named with a BuildDir directive, unless a`
		8461	`"src" directory is encountered. This mimics the operation`
		8462	`of the older JATS, without the need for a "src" directory.`
		8463
		8464	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8465	`Version: JATS_2.12.0 Released: 18-Mar-05`
		8466	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8467	`Major changes:`
		8468
		8469	`Minor changes:`
		8470	`* Added a --Depend=xxx[,yyy]+ option to the Src directive`
		8471	`Not needed for C and C++ files, but may be used in conjunction`
		8472	`with assembler files to indicate that the file includes another`
		8473	`file.`
		8474
		8475	`* Fixed problem with the local_dpkg_archive consistency test when`
		8476	`a soft link is used to redirect to the package.`
		8477
		8478	`* Win32 and WinCE toolsets`
		8479	`Added a compiler option to enable Run Time Type Information.`
		8480	`CompileOptions ('WIN32', 'RTTI' );`
		8481
		8482	`Add an option to Shared Library creation to allow the generation of`
		8483	`a Resource Only DLL. Option is "--ResourceOnly"`
		8484
		8485	`Add an option to allow Resources to be built into Static Libraries`
		8486	`in the same manner at Shared Libraries.`
		8487
		8488	`* WinCE toolsets`
		8489	`Mutual DLL support corrected. Library path is used to resolve`
		8490	`compiler specific libraries.`
		8491
		8492	`* SOLARIS toolset`
		8493	`Prevent the compiler displaying its command line. This is in line`
		8494	`with the other tools sets. The commands can be seen with`
		8495	`OPTIONS=args and this may be set in the users environment.`
		8496
		8497	`Modified the cleanup process to delete the links to shared`
		8498	`libraries. Only files, and not links to files, where being`
		8499	`cleaned up.`
		8500
		8501	`* Microtec tools set (MOS)`
		8502	`Dependancy generation can display commands with OPTIONS=args`
		8503
		8504	`* jats_rewriter.pl`
		8505	`Allow BuildName and LinkPkgArchive directives to contains arguments`
		8506	`with either " or ' characters.`

		8510	`Version: JATS_2.11.0 Released: 15-Mar-05`
		8511	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8512	`Major changes:`
		8513	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		8514	`The entire "include" directory is copied into the interface area`
		8515	`The installer was trying to be too smart and only copy platform`
		8516	`specific files,but was missing out many needed subdirectories`
		8517
		8518	`Reduce the warnings generated. These were an artifact of the process`
		8519	`of picking up all the strange variations of the directory structures.`
		8520
		8521	`* Cleaned up the handling of object files that were generated by the`
		8522	`user.`
		8523
		8524	`* MOS Microtec Toolset`
		8525	`Always present an absolute filename to the compiler`
		8526	`Display a shortened filename to allow the user to track progress`
		8527
		8528	`This will remove error messages about the path being too long`
		8529	`for the -Gf option.`
		8530
		8531	`Minor changes:`
		8532	`* SOLARIS Toolset`
		8533	`Remove duplicate -KPIC flags on the command line`
		8534
		8535	`* Win32 and WinCE Toolset`
		8536	`Source files are either compiled by the C compiler as C files or`
		8537	`the C++ compiler as C++ files. The option to allow the compiler to`
		8538	`figure out what sort of file it is has been removed.`
		8539
		8540	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8541	`Version: JATS_2.10.0 Released: 11-Mar-05`
		8542	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8543	`Major changes:`
		8544	`* Extended BuildName to accept the form`
		8545	`BuildName ('package_name', 'nn.nn.nn.xxx' );`
		8546
		8547	`* MOS68K and MOSCF toolset.`
		8548	`Extended the --board option to allow the user to define code and`
		8549	`data addresses for the board.`
		8550
		8551	`BuildProduct( 'TP5', 'MOSCF','--board=01234H,05678H' );`
		8552
		8553	`Will set the code,data address for the debugable image`
		8554
		8555	`* Extended the PackageXxxxx options`
		8556	`1) Allow --Platform=xxx,yyy`
		8557	`Where xxx is a directory prefix and yyy is suffix to the`
		8558	`"platform" name. Only useful within the context of the`
		8559	`PackageFile`
		8560
		8561	`2) The operation of --Platform=xxx when used by the PackageFile`
		8562	`directive now treats the xxx directory as a prefix to the`
		8563	`platform name. Other Package directives still treat it as a`
		8564	`suffix. In practice this is the logical use.`
		8565
		8566	`* Allow InstallLib and PackageLib to install a file that has been`
		8567	`discovered with a "Src" directive. This allows generated files`
		8568	`to be installed and packaged.`
		8569
		8570	`Minor changes:`
		8571
		8572	`* cache_dpkg utility`
		8573	`If a package is found in the local_dpkg_archive then the cache`
		8574	`entry will be deleted and the master archive will not be accessed.`
		8575
		8576	`* label utility`
		8577	`New option -auto to create and label`
		8578
		8579	`* Build WIN32 and WinCe Mutual DLLs with all the object files`
		8580	`This allows the generated import library to contain C++ names`
		8581
		8582	`* The BuildDirTree directive now supports an empty first argument`
		8583	`This allows a NULL tree.dir file, while still creating the root`
		8584	`directory. ie:`
		8585
		8586	`BuildDirTree ( '', 'pkg' );`
		8587
		8588	`* Fixed DEVIM 00019520`
		8589	`The problem was that /bin/pwd could return a different path to`
		8590	`the Cwd:getpwd() function. Solution: Use one mechanism throughout.`

		8596	`Major changes:`
		8597	`* First release for Back Office and Front Office use.`
		8598
		8599	`* Added the jats tool jats_rewrite.pl to rewrite build.pl files.`
		8600	`To be used by the nightly build process.`
		8601
		8602	`* Work around a problem in the Microtec 68K compiler.`
		8603	`The compiler uses temp files. If the temp file name that the`
		8604	`compiler uses already exists, then the compiler will not delete`
		8605	`the file. Instead it appends information to the existing file.`
		8606
		8607	`The workaround is to create the temp files within the build's`
		8608	`interface directory and to remove all temp files before each`
		8609	`compilation.`
		8610
		8611	`This bug does not affect the Mictotec CF compiler.`
		8612
		8613	`Minor changes:`
		8614	`* The "jats clobber" command will remove version definition file, if`
		8615	`one is being produced.`
		8616
		8617	`* Using JATS within a Visual Studio project. The "rebuild all"`
		8618	`option now translates to the JATS unbuild command to do a better`
		8619	`job of cleaning the workspace.`
		8620
		8621	`* Added GetPackageRoot() directive to support the packaging of MOS`
		8622
		8623	`* Generate error message for misuse of the SubDir directive`
		8624
		8625	`* Modified BuildName to allow an '-' in the name.`
		8626	`This provides backward compatibility with existing packages.`
		8627
		8628	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8629	`Version: JATS_2.8.0 Released: 17-Feb-05`
		8630	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8631	`Major changes:`
		8632	`* Added some new WINCE based targets. These require WINCE SDKs to be`
		8633	`installed in order for the compilers to work.`
		8634
		8635	`* New PLATFORMS are WCEIT3000, WCEPA961 and WCEPCM7220`
		8636
		8637	`* All invocations of xmake specify the name of the makefile`
		8638	`This allow GNUMakefiles and the Jats makefiles to exist in the`
		8639	`same directory`
		8640
		8641	`* Overcome a limitation of the Microtec compiler in which the flag`
		8642	`_DEBUG is defined enev in production builds - contrary to the`
		8643	`documenattion.`
		8644
		8645	`Minor changes:`
		8646	`* Process of descpkg files allows for both Unix and DOS line endings`
		8647	`Under Unix JATS would report that the package names don't match`
		8648
		8649	`* Corrected a problem with BuildPkgArchive in which file names with`
		8650	`spaces could not be soft linked. Only affects Unix systems.`
		8651
		8652	`* Added a -rename to the "jats label" utility.`
		8653	`Ensure that the user specified label exists in the VOB`
		8654
		8655	`* Correct problem with "make clean" that resulted in a verbose display`
		8656	`when the verbose option had not been selected`
		8657
		8658	`* Correct a problem with "make unbuild". Changes in the build files`
		8659	`would prevent the execution of the command. This command should`
		8660	`be exempt from this test.`
		8661
		8662	`* Correct a problem with "make clean" in the WIN32 and WINCE`
		8663	`platforms where the .exp files were not deleted.`
		8664
		8665	`* The "JATS clobber" command now invokes "make clobber" and "build`
		8666	`clobber". The result is as clean a clean as it can be.`
		8667
		8668	`Note: Jats "clean" does not remove a lot of files. These can be`
		8669	`removed with "unbuild" and "unpackage". This is what "clobber"`
		8670	`does.`
		8671
		8672	`* The operation of "build clobber" has been cleaned up. It will`
		8673	`not try to invoke make if the makefiles have already been removed.`
		8674
		8675
		8676	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8677	`Version: JATS_2.7.0 Released: 09-Feb-05`
		8678	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8679	`Major changes:`
		8680	`* First release with support for the DAFBR compiler`
		8681
		8682	`* Extended MergeLibrary. Added per-file options of:`
		8683	`--Interface - Pull lib from Interface directory`
		8684	`--Local - Pull lib from Local directory (default)`
		8685	`--SubDir=pathname - Pull lib from a subdirectory`
		8686	`Note: xxxx,pathname still works`
		8687
		8688	`* Added "jats label" to provide a number of useful labeling`
		8689	`operations.`
		8690
		8691	`* Added extensive help to JATS. JATS -man.`
		8692
		8693	`* Added this manual ChangeLog file`
		8694
		8695	`Minor changes`
		8696	`* Added an 'ebin' command to jats to allow the JATS binary tools to`
		8697	`be run in a controlled environment from the command line.`
		8698
		8699	`* Prune the list of library paths passed through to the various`
		8700	`toolsets. If a directory does not have any files in it then the`
		8701	`directory is not added to the library path.`
		8702
		8703	`Thus if a library is located in xxxx/lib/WIN32 then JATS will`
		8704	`not add the xxxx/lib to the path.`
		8705
		8706	`* cbuilder will now look in all VOBs for the user specified label.`
		8707	`The program has a list of "known" labels which it will search`
		8708	`first in an attempt to speed up the process.`
		8709
		8710	`* The AddFlags directive will issue a warning if the flags does not`
		8711	`begin with a -D or a -U. The user should not be using compiler`
		8712	`specific flags.`
		8713
		8714	`* The use of linker flags will issue a warning.`
		8715
		8716	`* Process the common makefile.pl after the toolset has been`
		8717	`determined. This allows the toolset to extend the CompileOptions`
		8718	`such they are available to the common makefile.pl.`
		8719
		8720	`* Added the WIN32 CompileOptions "jats_v1" to force JATS to specify`
		8721	`a number of compile time definitions used by earlier versions of`
		8722	`JATS.`
		8723
		8724	`* Fixed bug in the --Debug option to the PackageProg directives that`
		8725	`caused both the production and debug versions to be packaged.`
		8726
		8727	`* The gen_msproject utility now creates simpler names for the MS`
		8728	`projects that it creates. The name no longer contains the full`
		8729	`pathname, thus making them shorter and readable.`
		8730
		8731	`* The ShowDlls utility now handles absolute and relative paths to`
		8732	`the initial DLL or EXE.`
		8733
		8734	`* Correct problem in which the use of Generate/Rule directives may`
		8735	`fail since prerequisite subdirectories were not being created`
		8736	`since the "generate" phase was not being run.`
		8737
		8738	`Added messages to prompt the user to remove Generate, Generated`
		8739	`and Rule directives. Use the GenerateFiles directive`
		8740
		8741	`* JATS.BAT file will exclude LINUX builds by default.`
		8742
		8743	`* The make NODEPEND=1 processing now does not recurse at all.`
		8744	`Previously each subdirectory was visited - only to do nothing.`
		8745
		8746	`* Correct a problem in creating stub libraries for MOS targets if`
		8747	`the stub library object was not listed with the SharedLib's`
		8748	`objects.`
		8749
		8750	`* Correct a problem with the MS Studio support. The invoked make`
		8751	`command is XXX_all_debug. There was a problem with this command in`
		8752	`that it did not do any dependancy checking and would not always`
		8753	`build defendants.`
