		2818	`as the main binary.`

321	dpurdie	3543	`Version: 2.84.0000.cr Released: 16-Feb-10`
		3544	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		3545	`Major changes:`
		3546	`* Makefile directive helper function: If`
		3547	`Used within another directive to enable or disable arguments passed to the`
		3548	`outer directive. The first argument is a 'platform' specifier - as in`
		3549	`all Jats Make directives. If making for the specified platform, then the`
		3550	`remainder of the arguments are inserted into the directives argument`
		3551	`stream.`
		3552
		3553	`Example:`
		3554
		3555	`SharedLib ( '*', 'mySharedLib', @OBJS`
		3556	`, If ('WIN32', '-llibrary1', '-llibrary2' )`
		3557	`, If ('SOLARIS', '-llibrary3' )`
		3558	`);`
		3559	`Minor changes:`
		3560	`* Makefile directive: InstallLibs`
		3561	`Correctly installs, as libraries, files that are specified with a 'Src'`
		3562	`directive. This is consistent with the operation of the PackageLibs`
		3563	`directive.`
		3564
		3565	`* GCC Toolkit`
		3566	`Changes to the shared library dependency processing to bring it inline`
		3567	`with other toolers. Will terminate after determining that some`
		3568	`libraries cannot be found. This will ensure that the error message is at`
		3569	`the point of termination.`
		3570
		3571	`* Jats save_build utility`
		3572	`Corrected problem in unreserving a reserved checkout of a build.pl file`
		3573	`under windows.`
		3574
		3575	`* Jats sandbox`
		3576	`ClearCase views created with in the sandbox are created with a tag that`
		3577	`is named after the sandbox. This allows multiple instances of a view`
		3578	`in different sandboxes.`
		3579
		3580	`* Jats release`
		3581	`Display cleartool error messages when view creation fails.`

319	dpurdie	3592	`directory.`
		3593
		3594	`* jats label utility`
		3595	`Improved handling of the -file and -dir options`
		3596	`These options will now label the directory elements within the paths`
		3597	`specified by these options, when used in conjunction with the -up option.`
		3598	`This simplified the process of labeling complex directory structures.`
		3599
		3600	`Added -admin, to allow creation of global labels`
		3601
		3602	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
317	dpurdie	3603	`Version: 2.83.0000.cr Released: 20-Jan-10`

		3609	`New CompileOptions operations:`
321	dpurdie	3610	`Exceptions - Enable exception handling`
317	dpurdie	3611	`noExceptions - Disable`
		3612	`Default is to retain backward compatibility. It is mixed.`
		3613	`Example:`
		3614	`CompileOptions ('*', 'Exceptions' );`
		3615
		3616	`* Solaris targets`
		3617	`Full support for a target called SOLARIS8_SPARC32`
		3618	`It is identical to SOLARIS in a 'sparc' build machine, but it is only`
		3619	`available on a 'sparc' build machine. Can be used to limit builds to one`
		3620	`machine type.`
		3621
		3622	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		3623	`Version: 2.82.0000.cr Released: 18-Jan-10`

		3627	`Jats has been enhanced to support the building of VB6 .vbg and .vbp`
		3628	`project files.`
		3629
		3630	`* Build Directive BuildVersion.`
		3631	`This has been extended to allow the creation of Version Information in a`
		3632	`form that can be consumed by Visual Basic using '--Style=VB'`
		3633
		3634	`Minor changes:`
		3635	`* Added more internal documentation`
		3636	`Use jats help to see available documentation`

		3643	`under windows.`
		3644
		3645	`* Solaris 10, 64 Bit Sparc Builds`
		3646	`All compiles are done in a position independent manner (-KPIC)`
		3647	`This solved issues where static libraries are linked into shared`
		3648	`libraries.`
		3649
		3650	`* Solaris builds`
		3651	`Program and Shared library dependency checking is now done before`
		3652	`the program/library objects are built. Thus errors associated with missing`
		3653	`dependencies occur before objects are built and the user can see the cause`
		3654	`of the build failure.`
		3655
		3656
		3657	`Internal changes:`
		3658	`* Moved 'jats vars' functionality into a separate program`

		3668	`* Solaris Builds for 64 bit targets`
		3669	`Changes to fully support the SOLARIS10_X86 and SOLARIS10_SPARC64`
		3670	`targets. These are using a different version of the compiler than the`
		3671	`existing 32-bit builds.`
		3672
		3673	`64-Bit Solaris10 builds are performed with Sun Studio 12.1`
		3674	`32-Bit Solaris10 builds are performed with Sun Studio 11`

		3680	`* Package searching`
		3681	`The BuildpkgArchive and LinkPkgArchive directives will search`

		3684	`Allows JATS to be used to process deployable packages.`
		3685
		3686	`* jats help`
		3687	`Modified the operation of the 'jats help' command.`
		3688	`This command now provides a gateway to the jats help system.`
		3689

		3704
		3705	`Extended`

		3716	`Minor changes:`
		3717
		3718	`Internal changes`
		3719	`* Created a Pseudo package to describe the interface directory`
		3720	`This simplifies the various scanning algorithms within JATS`
		3721	`Useful side effects include:`
		3722
		3723	`JATS plugins will be sourced from the interface directory if included`
		3724	`with a BuildPkgArchive. This will simplify debugging.`
		3725
		3726	`[DEVI-059682] QtBase can be consumed via a BuildPkgArchive directive,`
		3727	`simplifying the process of packaging additional fonts.`
		3728
		3729	`[DEVI-059685] Simplify implementation of --FromPackage options in other`
		3730	`tools, which obviates the need for QtBase to be consumed via a`
		3731	`BuildPkgArchive`
		3732
313	dpurdie	3733	`* Perl Modules`
		3734	`Included the most recent version of the Pod module within the JATS`
		3735	`release. This will:`
		3736	`* Ensure consistent cross platform behaviour`

		3751
		3752	`* Jats label utility`
		3753	`Changes to assist in tracking down clearcase labeling errors`
		3754
		3755	`Once labels have been applied a check is done to ensure that`
		3756	`the labels have been placed. The check is to attempt to find`
		3757	`new files and folders to label - there should be none.`
		3758
		3759	`* Jats core`
		3760	`Improved the auto location of the base directory of the build to allow`
		3761	`for ant-based packages. Allows the jats 'create_dpkg' command to be`
		3762	`used to package ant based builds.`

		3773
309	dpurdie	3774	`The cmdfile utility creates paths with file path separators as discovered`
307	dpurdie	3775	`in the PATH EnvVar. Now that PATH is nice it means that the use of cmdfile`
309	dpurdie	3776	`to create shell scripts resulted in scripts with unsuitable separators.`
307	dpurdie	3777
		3778	`* WCEPSION_500_VS2005`

		3805	`This target has been added to the WINCE target.`
		3806
		3807	`WCEPSION_500_VS2005 build cannot consume build artifacts from the`
		3808	`WCEPSION_500. The two are separate.`
		3809
		3810	`* Support for building WinCE targets under VS2005`
		3811	`Currently only the WCEPSION_500_VS2005 is fully supported`

		3819	`Note: All platform names should be in uppercase.`
		3820
		3821	`* MOS builds`
		3822	`If a 'product' name not known to JATS is used and a board base address`

		3854
		3855	`Internal changes`

		3880	`Changes are transparent to users.`

		3883	`as an error. The Microtec tools sets will create a 'pop-up' if`
		3884	`this occurs.`
		3885
		3886	`* The LinkSandbox directive is not allowed when GBE_ABT is set.`
		3887	`This directive is highly discouraged in development: Use a jats 'sandbox'`

		3889	`automated build framework.`
		3890
		3891	`* jats sandbox command`

		3974	`to the Prog and SharedLib directives.`
		3975
		3976	`This toolset has a number of limitations:`
		3977	`1) It can build either Debug or Production, but not both, in a single`
		3978	`makefile.pl. This is caused by the Delphi limitation that library`
		3979	`names cannot be changed.`
		3980
		3981	`2) The generation of dependencies between the source and the generated`
		3982	`artifacts is very simplistic.`
		3983
		3984	`Units are generated with the 'Lib' directive. The name of the Unit and the`
		3985	`name of the source are linked. The source should not be provided.`
		3986	`ie: Lib ('*', 'MyUnit' );`
		3987	`Will create a unit called MyUnit.dcu from the source file 'MyUnit.pas'`
		3988
		3989	`Packages are generated with the SharedLib directive starting with a .dpk`
		3990	`file.`
		3991	`ie: SharedLib ( '*', 'MyPackage' );`
		3992	`will create a package called MyPackage.bpl/dcp from the source file`
		3993	`MyPackage.dpk.`
		3994

		5067	`Major changes:`
229	dpurdie	5068	`* Jats Release Mechanism`
		5069	`Jats can now release itself. This is not the same a building all of its`
		5070	`internal components, but it does mean that a new version of JATS can be`
		5071	`released using the 'standard' mechanism.`
		5072
		5073	`Jats releases will be tracked in Release Manager.`
		5074

		5090	`Jats will generate a warning if the version of Perl in use is newer`

		5093
		5094	`* Build Directive: BuildVersion`
		5095	`This directive has been extended to allow the creation of a 'properties'`

		5103	`* Jats Tool: CCbc2`
		5104	`Added utility to use BeyondCompare (BC2) to compare files in two`
		5105	`packages defined as ClearCase labels. The utility creates two dynamic views`
		5106	`and starts BeyondCompare. The views are destroyed at the end of the`
		5107	`process.`
		5108
		5109	`Requires BeyondCompare to be installed in its default location.`

		5117	`* Jats test runtime helper scripts set_PLATFORM.bat`
		5118	`Uses SETLOCAL / ENDLOCAL to prevent environment variables being exported`

		5139	`-pname=Package_Name`
		5140	`-pversion=Package_Version`
		5141

		5164	`* WINCE toolsets`
		5165	`Added a run-time test for the presence of the required toolset`
		5166	`This will report an error if the required WINCE toolset has not been`

		5169
		5170	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		5171	`If the generating tool can only be found in the users path, don't make`

		5191	`* Jats Tool: CCdiff`
		5192	`Added utility to provide difference reports in a format suitable to be`

		5307	`Major changes:`
		5308
		5309	`Minor changes:`
		5310	`PackageLib directive`
		5311	`The construct "PackageLib( '*', @SHLIBS, @LIBS );" now works as expected.`
		5312	`Packaging multiple libraries and shared libraries works as expected.`
		5313	`Packaging multiple shared libraries works as expected.`
		5314
		5315	`MakefileGenerate directive`
		5316	`This directive should only be called once. JATS will now generate a warning,`
		5317	`and not produce an erroneous, if the directive is invoked more than once.`

		5319	`Multiple Parent detection`
		5320	`A makefile.pl that is invoked from more than one other makefile.pl, or the`

		5323	`condition will be treated as a warning.`
		5324
		5325	`Solaris Toolset`
		5326	`Added option '--WithMisalign' to the SharedLib directive.`
		5327	`When used in conjunction with the 'misalign' CompleOption this option will`

		5329	`link.`
		5330
		5331	`Programs that are created with 'misalign' will automatically include the`
		5332	`misalign.o object file. The fact that shared libraries do not may be an`
		5333	`indication that this is a bad thing to do.`
		5334
		5335	`Make and generation of subdirectories`
		5336	`Fixed an issue which caused created directories to have a bad timestamp.`
		5337	`This could result in multiple attempts to generate the source dependency`
		5338	`file.`

		5340	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5341	`Version: 2.71.0.cr Released: 10-Oct-07`
		5342	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5343	`Major changes:`
		5344	`Makefile generation and make recursion`
		5345	`Extensive changes to the makefiles that are generated by JATS and method by`
		5346	`which JATS recuses through subdirectories during a build.`
		5347
		5348	`Summary of changes:`
		5349	`- Removed the use of 'make' to perform recursion over subdirectories`
		5350	`and platforms. This has been replaced by a JATS program that performs`
		5351	`the same task - only a great deal faster and with a greater scope for`
		5352	`flexibility.`
		5353
		5354	`The user interface remains identical: jats make ....`
		5355
		5356	`- Replaced the generated 'Makefile' with 'Makefile.gbe'. This is a text`
		5357	`file that provides sufficient information to allow JATS to locate the`
		5358	`interface directory and associated build information.`
		5359
		5360	`- Significant speed up in determining the need to rebuild a makefile.`
		5361	`On a large package this has been reduced from 30+ seconds to less`
		5362	`than one second.`
		5363
		5364	`- Significant speed up of large recursive builds through intelligent`
		5365	`building of the 'make_init' target. This is only processed once for`
		5366	`each platform type. Previously it was processed in each and every`
		5367	`makefile. This make target is used, internally, to perform sanity`
		5368	`testing of the compiler environment and to display the name of the`
		5369	`toolset. It is an expensive operation.`
		5370
		5371	`- Intelligent speed up of large recursive through better mechanism`
		5372	`for creating required directories. These are now created on the fly,`
		5373	`rather than via a slow recursive pass though all makefiles.`
		5374
		5375	`- Better makefile rebuilding`
		5376	`Makefiles can be rebuilt on the fly. The previous system was prone to`
		5377	`detecting that makefiles needs to be re-built, but then not re-`
		5378	`building them.`
		5379
		5380	`- Detection of build file changes`
		5381	`The make process will detect that the build file has been modified`
		5382	`and that the component has not been rebuilt. This is a warning. It`
		5383	`does not prevent the 'make' operation.`
		5384
		5385	`- Quieter make output`
		5386	`The 'Nothing to be done' message has been disabled.`
		5387
		5388
		5389	`Minor changes:`
		5390	`MakeAnt Directive`
		5391	`Allows ANT_HOME to be a path with spaces. ie: c:\Program Files\apache-ant-1.6.5`
		5392
		5393	`JATS command "debug" and "prod"`
		5394	`These now handle make arguments and options correctly. Thus the command:`
		5395	`jats prod WIN32 OPTIONS=args`
		5396	`Will correctly do a production build for WIN32 with command execution`
		5397	`display. Before, the system would attempt to process prod_OPTIONS=args.`
		5398
		5399	`CSHARP toolset`
		5400	`Correctly detect missing compiler directories`

		5494	`Minor changes:`
		5495	`* Reverted changes made in JATS_2.68.1 to the library search path`
		5496	`Although the search order is broken, we will need to live with it.`
		5497
		5498	`Addressed the search order of /usr/lib under Solaris by adding a new`

		5500	`last.`
		5501
		5502	`For the record, the search order for header files and libraries is:`

		5525	`Version: JATS_2.68.1 Released: 24-Aug-07`
		5526	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5527	`Major changes:`
		5528
		5529	`Minor changes:`
		5530	`* Solaris Toolset`
		5531	`Corrected library search order, such that /usr/lib is search after the`
		5532	`dependent packages.`
		5533
		5534	`* RunTest operation`
		5535	`Added the current directory '.' to the PATH used when the test is run.`

		5540	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5541	`Version: JATS_2.68.0 Released: 20-Aug-07`
		5542	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5543	`Major changes:`
		5544	`* Trap use of uncontrolled versions of 'ant' and the Java Compiler (javac)`
		5545
		5546	`It was discovered that a few old makefile.pl's where invoking ant and`
		5547	`javac directly in order to build small Java components. This was`
		5548	`normally being done in the guise of the WIN32 target. These packages`
		5549	`were making assumptions about the version of Java on the users search`
		5550	`path.`
		5551
		5552	`JATS can invoke ANT and build Java based components using the MakeAnt`
		5553	`directive and the JAVA platform. This method is controlled and`
		5554	`reproducible.`
		5555
		5556	`This release provides changes such that these packages will not build.`
		5557	`This is better than building incorrectly.`
		5558
		5559	`There are several aspects to the change`
		5560	`1) JATS provides binaries (ant and javac) with an error message. If`
		5561	`the user invoked ant/javac in a manner that involves searching the`
		5562	`PATH then these will be used and report an error.`
		5563
		5564	`2) A special command (jats abt) can be used to start up the Auto Build`
		5565	`Tool in a manner that does not alter the PATH seen by the utilities.`
		5566	`Moreover it does not alter the JAVA_HOME seen by the build. This is`
		5567	`controlled separately.`
		5568
		5569	`Minor changes:`
		5570	`* Sanitize the PATH environment variable`
		5571	`Ensure the JATS bin directory is the first directory searched`
		5572	`Remove duplicates`
		5573	`Place non-existent components at the end of the PATH`
		5574
		5575	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5576	`Version: JATS_2.67.1 Released: 17-Aug-07`
		5577	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5578	`Major changes:`
		5579
		5580	`Minor changes:`
		5581	`* Makefile sanity test`
		5582	`Added a test to ensure that makefiles created on a machine of one type are`
		5583	`not then run on a machine of a different type.`
		5584
		5585	`This will prevent files created on solaris-sparc being used on a solaris-`
		5586	`x86 machine.`
		5587
		5588	`* Correct bug in RunTest`
		5589	`RunTest now extends the PATH to include the local bin directory`
		5590
		5591	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5592	`Version: JATS_2.67.0 Released: 13-Aug-07`
		5593	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5594	`Major changes:`
		5595	`* RunTest directive`
		5596	`Added support for running tests within the NUNIT test framework for the`
		5597	`CSHARP target. In the process a generalized mechanism for accessing`
		5598	`toolset specific test frameworks has been added.`
		5599
		5600	`Changes to the directive to support a FrameWork.`
		5601	`The use of a test FrameWork is signaled with the option`
		5602	`--FrameWork=<name> If this is present then the raw name of the program`
		5603	`under test will be passed to the framework. program.`
		5604
		5605	`If a FrameWork is in use, then JATS will invoke the specified framework`
		5606	`builder within the current toolset.`
		5607
		5608	`When a framework is in place JATS will pass arguments of the form:`
		5609	`'--Tag=Text' to the FrameWork. Other options are processed as normal.`
		5610
		5611	`With in the Nunit FrameWork the program under test will be a DLL Nunit`
		5612	`will only operate on a DLL. The DLL must have been created by the makefile`
		5613	`containing the RunTest directive.`
		5614
		5615	`The Nunit Framework supports the following options:`
		5616	`--Uses=<Name>[,SubOption]+`
		5617
		5618	`This option specifies other DLLs that are used by the TestDLL. They will`
		5619	`be copied in to the test directory, and may be sourced from an external`
		5620	`package or the components 'local' lib directory.`
		5621
		5622	`SubOptions available to The --Uses directive are:`
		5623	`--NonJats This is not a JATS built library. It will not have a`
		5624	`P or D suffix.`
		5625	`--Jats (Default) This is a JATS built library. JATS will`
		5626	`select the correct library type for this build.`
		5627
		5628	`Minor changes:`
		5629	`* New Cache cleanup mechanism`
		5630	`When a package is consumed from the 'cache' a flag is updated within`
		5631	`the cache. The cache aging routines use this file in preference to`
		5632	`the descpkg file, thus it will prevent the aging of packages that are`
		5633	`frequently used. The aging policy can be made more aggressive.`
		5634
		5635	`* Save Build Utility`
		5636	`This utility is used by the Auto Build System to save the 'build.pl' file`
		5637	`used in a ripple build.`
		5638
		5639	`The utility has been enhanced to detect a reserved checkout of the`
		5640	`build.pl. The checkout will be changed to unreserved - if possible.`
		5641
		5642	`* Release Utility`
		5643	`The 'jats release' command will now unlock any labels that it locked`
		5644	`when an error is encountered.`
		5645
		5646	`This simplifies the 'release' process as the developers label will be`
		5647	`unlocked if a build error occurs.`
		5648
		5649	`* Jats caching local copy of itself`
		5650	`Fixed a bug which resulted in an "Use of individualized value" message`
		5651	`being displayed a large number of times during the file transfer process.`
		5652
		5653	`* Minor extension to allow plug-in directives to perform a processing step`
		5654	`before the makefiles are created.`
		5655
		5656	`* TestProg directive`
		5657	`TestProg's are now built in exactly the same manner as Progs`
		5658
		5659	`* Correct problem introduced in 2.66.1 with packaging of files with`
		5660	`a 'space' or '$' in the file name.`
		5661
		5662	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`

		5664	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5665	`Major changes:`
		5666	`* New build target`
		5667	`LINUX_ETX - Support for Linux on an ETX board`
		5668	`LMOS_LINUX_ETX - Support for LMOS on the LINUX_ETX target`
		5669
		5670	`These targets have also been added to the following pseudo targets.`
		5671	`DEVLINUX`
		5672	`LMOS_DEVLINUX`
		5673
		5674	`* Internal utility dpkg_cache [Windows]`
		5675	`Modified to remove use of system utilities to perform the the file`
		5676	`transfer, after having problems the 'cp.exe' provided by JATS.`
		5677
		5678	`Minor changes:`
		5679	`* Added utility class to provide directory searching`
		5680	`To be used in JATS and JATS support tools`
		5681
		5682	`* tweaks to the C# toolset`
		5683	`Correct problem with filename that start with "n" as in .\not_nice.cs`
		5684
		5685	`Create resource files with Fully Qualified Names derived from the .resx`
		5686	`and .cs files.`
		5687
		5688	`Handle Strong Key Names and creates wrappers to provide do the right`
		5689	`thing.`
		5690
		5691	`* Microtec ColdFire compiler`
		5692	`Further attempts to get the compiler to place all of its temp files in a`
		5693	`local directory. The compiler uses a large number of EnVars to control`
		5694	`were it places temp files.`
		5695
		5696	`Underlying problem is random compiler failures on big builds. Suspected`
		5697	`interaction with other builds.`
		5698
		5699	`* Release utility command`
		5700	`Added a -tag=name option to allow the Auto Build Tools to create`
		5701	`multiple instances of a static view. The tag is used to provide a unique`
		5702	`component in the clearcase tag name.`

		5791	`Major changes:`
		5792	`* Provided a mechanism by which JATS makefile.pl directives can be extended`
		5793	`through modules provided by external packages. This will be used to reduce`
		5794	`the dependancy on JATS of various packaging processes.`
		5795
		5796	`* GenerateFiles`
		5797	`Added the options:`
		5798	`--UnknownPreq - Will force the recipe to be run every time`

		5802
		5803	`--AutoGenerate - Will not force the recipe to be run during the`

		6001	`Major changes:`
		6002
		6003	`* JATS release command`
		6004	`Modified the configuration spec generated when a branching rule is`
		6005	`specified. The change will ensure that directories are not branched.`
		6006
		6007	`Rules are:`
		6008	`Modify a file: File will branch`
		6009	`Adding a file: Containing directory will not branch`
		6010	`File will be placed on a branch`
		6011	`Add a directory: Containing directory will not branch`
		6012	`New directory will branch`
		6013
		6014	`Minor changes:`
		6015	`* JATS release command`
		6016	`Added -noprefex option to allow the creation of a view directory without the`
		6017	`user name being prefixed to it. This is useful in creating an escrow view.`
		6018
		6019	`* JATS label command`
		6020	`Detect and report parent directories that are checkedout when a label`
		6021	`is applied. Previously these had gone unreported.`
		6022
		6023	`* JATS make`
		6024	`Undo previous change to preserve symbolic links while Packaging and`
		6025	`Installing files. A problem was encountered when a file from a package`
		6026	`was re-packaged.`
		6027
		6028	`* JATS escrow`
		6029	`Added a tool to generate information for creating an escrow drop.`
		6030	`Use jats escrow -help for details`
		6031
		6032	`* makefile.pl directive: MakeAnt`
		6033	`This directive will create parameters to specify the location of external java`
		6034	`packages that have been referenced via a LinkPkgArchive directive.`
		6035
		6036	`This allows the build.xml to contruct a CLASSPATH to access JAR files in`
		6037	`packages, without the overhead of copying the entire package into the`
		6038	`interface directory.`
		6039
		6040	`* build.pl directive: BuildPkgArchive`
		6041	`Modified the processing of 'jar' directories.`
		6042	`Directories of the form 'jar.<target>' will be transferred into the 'jar'`
		6043	`directory as seen by the package.`
		6044
		6045	`Intended use: Deployment of oraclient for Solaris 10`
		6046
		6047	`* JAVA 6`
		6048	`JATS now supports all versions of Java through the use of JAVA_HOME_X_Y`
		6049	`environment variables. Where X andY specify the version of JAVA.`
		6050
		6051	`The jats.bat and jats.sh example files only provide indication of 1.4, 1.5`
		6052	`and 1.6 support, but all versions are now supported.`
		6053
		6054	`The "jats vars -v" command will display all JAVA_HOME environment variables`
		6055
		6056	`* Jats command: vars`
		6057	`Extended to show a "*" for EnvVars that do not address a valid directory`
		6058	`These indicate potential problems.`
		6059
		6060	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6061	`Version: JATS_2.62.4 Released: 20-Mar-07`
		6062	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6063	`Major changes:`
		6064	`* JATS create_dpkg + packageing shared libraries (Unix)`
		6065	`When a shared library is created a simple symbolic link to the versioned`
		6066	`libarry is also created.`
		6067
		6068	`Previous versions of JATS would replace the symbolic link with a physical`
		6069	`copy of the file. The effect of this is that when the shared libaries is`
		6070	`'Installed', 'Packaged' and transferred into dpkg_archive there are two`
		6071	`files, instead of one file and one link to the file (in the same directory)`
		6072	`The Solaris shared libraries can be quite large, due to the debug`
		6073	`information contained within the file.`
		6074
		6075	`This version of JATS will preserve symbolic links when 'Installing',`
		6076	`'Packaging' and transferring to dpkg_archive.`
		6077
		6078	`The advantage of this will be significant reduction in disk space used`
		6079	`within the build environment and dpkg_archive.`
		6080
		6081	`* Building Perl Modules`
		6082	`Modified the process to prevent the module builder attempting to modify the`
		6083	`documentation on the build machine.`
		6084
		6085	`Integrated the 'jats clean' operation.`
		6086
		6087	`Minor changes:`
		6088	`* jats create_dpkg`
		6089	`Added an option to create a built.generic file`
		6090	`This is only used by the Automated Built Tools.`
		6091
		6092	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6093	`Version: JATS_2.62.3 Released: 28-Feb-07`
		6094	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6095	`Major changes:`
		6096	`* JATS JAVA build target`
		6097	`The default behaviour of the JAVA build target has changed such that the`
		6098	`default version of JAVA used will be 1.4.`
		6099
		6100	`Previous behaviour was to use whichever version was specified by the EnvVar`
		6101	`JAVA_HOME. This was not controlled, thus the build was not controlled.`
		6102	`Problems occur when using the new AutoBuildTool as it uses Java 1.5 and this`
		6103	`is then picked up as the default version.`
		6104
		6105	`If a version, other than 1.4, is required then specify it within the`
		6106	`build.pl file.`
		6107
		6108	`Minor changes:`
		6109	`* jats release`
		6110	`Ensure that the 'cleartool' command can be found in the users PATH`
		6111	`Issue an error if it cannot be found.`
		6112	`This error indicates bad DevEnv setup`
		6113
		6114	`Added facility to create a view based on a config_spec, instead of a label.`
		6115	`Such a view cannot be used to create a release. It is intended to simplify`
		6116	`the creation of simple static views. The name of view is, by default,`
		6117	`based on the name of the config spec. Use the -view=name option to change`
		6118	`the name of the view.`
		6119
		6120	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		6121	`Added new --Vars() to allow packaging of JATS plugin tools.`
		6122
		6123	`* MOS Toolset`
		6124	`When using MOS fast intermodule calls the optimizer will preload commonly`
		6125	`used memory addresses into a register BEFORE the GDP has been correctly set`
		6126	`up. Use the following option to suppress this optimization`
		6127
		6128	`Added: CompileOptions ('*', 'NoGlobalOptimization' );`

		6132	`Version: JATS_2.62.2 Released: 15-Feb-07`
		6133	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6134	`Major changes:`
		6135
		6136	`Minor changes:`
		6137	`* JATS environment`
		6138	`Ensure that the true path of the Perl executable is present in the PATH`
		6139	`environment variable. This allows build tool access to various perl utilities`
		6140	`that are located in the Perl bin directory.`
		6141
		6142	`Resolves issues in locating utilities such as pod2html`
		6143
		6144	`* Use of GENERIC platforms`
		6145	`Report an error if a GENERIC platform is mixed with any other platform`
		6146	`specifier. GENERIC is used for packages that build on all machines because`
		6147	`they do not use a compiler or linker. They simply contains files that need`
		6148	`to be packaged.`
		6149
		6150	`* Generated makefiles`
		6151	`Solaris and Linux: Ensure that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is exported if it is used.`
		6152
		6153	`* Generating MOS THX files`
		6154	`Added option --BinaryImage to the SharedLib directive used to create MOS THX`
		6155	`files. This option will create a binary image (.bin) instead of a .thx file.`
		6156	`This is being used in the creation of BR Applets.`
		6157
		6158	`SharedLib ( 'MOS', "xxx", @OBJS, "--Rel=xxx.rel", "--BinaryImage" );`
		6159
		6160	`* JATS release`
		6161	`Correct the operation of the -path option under Unix`
		6162
		6163	`* JATS extract`
		6164	`New JATS command. This is the same as 'jats release -extract'`
		6165
		6166	`* JATS Toolset`
		6167	`Added support for the WinCe PSION (WCEPSION_420)`
		6168	`This is a armv4i device using 4.20 of the WCE SDK`
		6169
		6170

		6172	`Version: JATS_2.62.1 Released: 18-Jan-07`
		6173	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6174	`Major changes:`
		6175
		6176	`Minor changes:`
		6177	`* jats label`
		6178	`Added a -vob=name option`
		6179	`This allwos the label utility to create, lock, unlock, rename and delete`
		6180	`labels without the user actually being located within the VOB. This option`
		6181	`cannot be used in conjunction with operations that place labels on files.`
		6182	`It can only be used for operations that manipulate the label.`
		6183
		6184	`Added a -user=name option`
		6185	`This extends the operation of the -mine operation to change ownership of the`
		6186	`label to the named user.`
		6187
		6188	`* jats release`
		6189	`Displays the path to the view and the build file in a user friendly manner`
		6190	`Under Windows it uses \, unless running under cygwin.`
		6191
		6192	`* JATS build.pl`
		6193	`BuildProduct supports the --Uses=xxxx construct on a per-target basis.`
		6194	`ie:`
		6195	`BuildProduct ('TP5', 'LMOS_TP5600_EMU', 'LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI,--Uses=TP5600_ARM9TDMI');`
		6196

		6199	`Version: JATS_2.62.0 Released: 22-Dec-06`
		6200	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6201	`Major changes:`
		6202	`* GenerateFiles and RunTest directives`
		6203	`These directives have been extended to allow a large number of makefile`
		6204	`values to be added to the command lines,without resorting to knowledge of`
		6205	`the makefile internals. ie:`
		6206	`--Var(BuildName)`
		6207	`will be expanded to (hen building MyPackage)`
		6208	`-BuildName=MyPackage`
		6209
		6210	`The complete list of Variables is provided in the JATS manual.`
		6211
		6212	`* GenerateFiles`
		6213	`Added a --Clean option to allow tools to be invoked in the 'clean' phase`
		6214	`This allows external scripts to cleanup.`
		6215
		6216	`* BuildPlatforms`
		6217	`Restored operation of the --Uses option`
		6218
		6219	`Minor changes:`
		6220	`* GCC Toolset`
		6221	`Exports path to compiler. Used by scripts to build packages`
		6222
		6223	`Internal changes:`
		6224	`* GenerateFiles`
		6225	`Maintains the arguments in an array for simpler processing.`
		6226
		6227	`--Shell is now processed by the 'make' shell rather then invoking an`
		6228	`external shell. It will be the same shell, just easier to setup.`
		6229
		6230
		6231	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6232	`Version: JATS_2.61.3 Released: 14-Dec-06`
		6233	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6234	`Major changes:`
		6235	`* Caching JATS`
		6236	`Added a mechanism whereby JATS can cache a copy of itself on the users local`
		6237	`drive. This is applicable to windows.`
		6238
		6239	`This mechanism will allow a user to address JATS via the soft-links in`
		6240	`dpkg_archive and pick up the current version of JATS without the penalty of`
		6241	`then using JATS across a slow(network) link.`
		6242
		6243	`The EnvVar GBE_CACHE_JATS controls the operation of this feature.`
		6244	`Set GBE_CACHE_JATS to one to enable the operation, but it will only be`
		6245	`effective if JATS is being run from GBE_DPKG in the first place.`
		6246
		6247	`Use: Build Machines and Windows Users`
		6248
		6249	`Minor changes:`
		6250	`* Build directive: BuildAlias with --Target option`
		6251	`Corrected a problem when the target name is a expanded platform name (ie:`
		6252	`TP5600) that prevent correct expansion.`
		6253
		6254	`* jats build`
		6255	`If the user has not configured a cache, then do not attempt to cache`
		6256	`packages. This will remove an annoying warning message for each package`
		6257	`processed by the build.`
		6258
		6259	`* jats build`
		6260	`Modified the error messages generated when JATS fails to create the`
		6261	`makefiles. The previous system would report failures while creating`
		6262	`makefiles and, at the end of the process, it would generate a large error`
		6263	`message to indicate the failure. This large message diverted the users`
		6264	`from reading the other error messages resulting in confusion.`
		6265
		6266	`* PackageFile, PackageLib, PackageProg and PackageHdr`
		6267	`Detect and report as an error use of the --Dir=<Path> option where the`
		6268	`Path is not specified.`
		6269
		6270	`Most instances of this error will be where the option has been mis-used in`
		6271	`conjunction with a package.pl file, or during transition from using a`
		6272	`package.pl file. That change is detects errors where the user has specified`
		6273	`--Dir=$Pinc`
		6274	`but $Pinc is not defined.`
		6275

		6523
		6524	`Minor changes:`
		6525	`* WIN32 and WINCE toolsets`
		6526	`SharedLib operation. Added an option to allow the creation of a 'stub'`

		6565	`* Packaging directives`
		6566	`Added option --OsCommon to allow files and header files to be packed into`
		6567	`a directory known to all platforms being built for a common OS.`
		6568
		6569	`Currently this is only supported to target platforms based on`
		6570	`SOLARIS`
		6571	`WIN32`
		6572
		6573	`* Removal of support for badly formed packages`
		6574	`As of this release libraries that exist in the <packagename>/lib directory`
		6575	`will not be available to JATS. These libraries are in the incorrect`
		6576	`directory. They MUST be in a directory that indicates the intended purpose`
		6577	`of the library. A .so library cannot be used on all machines ( linux,`
		6578	`solaris-sparc, solaris-amd ... ).`
		6579
		6580	`* Build Platform target name expansion facility`
		6581	`The build targets of SOLARIS and LINUX are seen as expandable names. They`

		6591	`Added a -root=dirname to allow the user to place the created view at a given`
		6592	`location`
		6593
		6594	`Added GBE_VIEWBASE to provide a globally configured mechanism for`
		6595	`controlling the view location. Performs the same job as -root=xxxx`
		6596
		6597	`* Utility genrc`
		6598	`Added the company name to the copyright string`
		6599
		6600	`* Utility: jats_save_build`
		6601	`Added option: -new`
		6602	`This option forces the saved file only a new branch.`
		6603	`The option can be used to save a build.pl file onto a new project-specific`
		6604	`branch. Useful when branching an entire release.`
		6605
		6606	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6607	`Added options to allow project suffixes to be replaced.`
		6608	`Use: Convert a .syd project to a .bej project.`
		6609
		6610	`* Deprecated features: package.pl and tree.dir`
		6611	`These two build features are being deprecated. They are not suitable for`
		6612	`migration to other SOLARIS based platforms.`
		6613
		6614	`The Package directives provide sufficient power to replace the package.pl`
		6615	`features - in a uniform manner.`
		6616
		6617
		6618	`Internal Changes:`
		6619	`* Major rework of the JATS BuildPlatform, BuildAlias an BuildProducts`
		6620	`directives, together with the mechanism used to describe the platform builds.`
		6621
		6622	`Introduced a CFG/<PLATFORM>.CFG file to provide:`
		6623	`1) Platform information available at build time`
		6624	`2) Dynamic platform names`
		6625
		6626	`* Major rework of the 'SOLARIS' platform`
		6627	`The SOLARIS platform will generate one or more targets, depending on the`
		6628	`machine on which the platform is invoked.`
		6629
		6630	`Consolidated a number of SOLARIS specific kludges and converted them into`
		6631	`configurable items. These kludges are really on applicable to the`
		6632	`SOLARIS8_SPARC32 platform. New SOLARIS builds will be well formed.`
		6633
		6634	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6635	`Formalized a number of kludges in operation of the SOLARIS8 under sparc32`
		6636	`platform. These are configured early in the build process and are no longer`
		6637	`needed.`
		6638
		6639	`A side effect of this work is that files from external packages may be`
		6640	`located in 'SOLARIS', 'SOLARIS_sparc' or 'sparc' directories. The change`
		6641	`should be transparent as the consumer tools should be able to handle`
		6642	`files from all of these.`

		6655	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6656	`Major changes:`
		6657	`* Jats wrapper: Specify version of JATS to be used`
		6658	`Added a -version=xxxx option to force JATS to use a specific version of`
		6659	`JATS. The same operation can be achieved by setting GBE_JATS_VERSION.`
		6660
		6661	`The required version MUST be found in one of the known archives.`
		6662
		6663	`JATS will attempt to cache the version of JATS to assist in speeding up`
		6664	`the operations.`
		6665
		6666	`The version option MUST be the first option.`
		6667
		6668	`The version option MUST be followed by a '--' option.`
		6669	`This prevents JATS parsing other options and recursion issues.`
		6670
		6671	`Example: jats -version=2.54.3.cr -- build`
		6672
		6673	`* Migrated the "jats install" functionality out of the jats wrapper script`
		6674	`and into the create_dpkg utility. This is transparent to the user.`

		6677	`Added a '-quiet' option to allow use within scripts`
		6678	`Extended the built-in help`

		6687	`are used in the creation of bootstraps.`
		6688
		6689	`Minor changes:`
		6690	`* JATS wrapper script`
		6691	`Added a -ABT=xxx option to allow the Auto Build Tool to be invoked from`
		6692	`the command line.`
		6693
		6694	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6695	`Modified so that it will display changes. These will then be present in the`
		6696	`ABT log so that a developer can see which packages have been rippled.`
		6697
		6698	`Internal Changes:`
		6699	`* Common Error Reporting`
		6700	`Will use environment variables to control DEBUG and VERBOSE levels`
		6701	`for individual users. A module reporting with a name of XXXX will use EnvVars`

		6703	`level.`
		6704
		6705	`Force flushing after a "Question" is asked to ensure that the prompt is`
		6706	`displayed.`

		6752	`behaviour.`
		6753
		6754	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6755	`Version: JATS_2.54.0 Released: 22-Jun-06`
		6756	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6757	`Major changes:`
		6758	`* Removal of non-core deployment functionality from JATS.`
		6759	`Deployment package will be affected.`
		6760
		6761	`The build.pl file of deployment package will need to import deployment`
		6762	`support with a BuildPkgArchive directive. ie:`
		6763
		6764	`BuildPkgArchive ( 'deployfiles', '1.0.0.cr' );`
		6765
		6766	`This version of deployfiles contains the same functionality as that provided`
		6767	`by the previous version of JATS. Version 2 of this package will be the start`
		6768	`of a deployment system that will provide support for building InstallShield`
		6769	`packages.`
		6770
		6771	`* Deployment support utilities must be run under JATS`
		6772	`The environment required for the deployment support utilities is complex`
		6773	`and is provided by the JATS wrapper script.`
		6774
		6775	`This is a change in usage. Instead of running the program 'updatenodespec'`
		6776	`the user will need to run 'jats updatenodespec'`
		6777
		6778	`Minor changes:`
		6779	`* SubDir directive`
		6780	`Added a sanity test to detect the case when a 'SubDir' directive specifies`
		6781	`a directory from two different makefiles.`
		6782
		6783	`* Tools: Dependancy generator mkdepend`
		6784	`If an include file was referenced by a symbolic name, then the generated`
		6785	`dependancy information would be wrong for all but the first occurrence`
		6786	`of the file usage.`
		6787
		6788	`* New utility: jats_manifest`
		6789	`Used by the build system to generate and validate source files.`
		6790	`Beta Release: Windows only at the moment`
		6791
		6792	`* Unit tests under SOLARIS_sparc`
		6793	`The LD_LIBRARY_PATH has been modified to correctly pick up libraries`
		6794	`generated within the build and have been installed locally.`
		6795
		6796	`* Default behaviour of JATS the wrapper script`
		6797	`This has been changed. Previous unknown commands were passed to make.`
		6798	`In this release unknown comamnds will be treated a 'etool' commands and`
		6799	`will execute a JATS extended command.`
		6800
		6801
		6802	`Internal Changes:`
		6803	`* Code refactor`
		6804	`Created JatsEnv to encapsulate functionality that was multiply defined.`
		6805
		6806	`* Deployment utilities`
		6807	`The Perl module Ignorelist.pm and the .ccignore file`
		6808	`Changed the mechanism by which this module locates a .ccignore file.`
		6809	`The .ccignore file has been moved to the same directory as the module and`
		6810	`the module can locate the file.`
		6811
		6812	`Previously the module required an environment variable in order to locate`
		6813	`the file, which was in a fixed location anyway.`
		6814
		6815	`* JATS core`
		6816	`Removed the use of the environment variable PERLINC.`
		6817
		6818	`Better parsing of descpkg files.`
		6819
		6820	`* JATS core debugging: JatsError.pm`
		6821	`Allow control over the debug and verbose messages of specific programs`
		6822	`through the use of environment variables.`
		6823
		6824	`A program reporting errors as "name" can be controlled via environment`
		6825	`variables GBE_name_VERBOSE and GBE_name_DEBUG.`
		6826
		6827	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6828	`Modified the subdirectories transferred with this directive to include:`
		6829	`deployfiles - as used by the deployment system`
		6830	`tools/scripts - as used by perl based extensions`
		6831
		6832	`* Make environment`
		6833	`Extended the PERL5LIB path seen by perl programs executed under make to`
		6834	`include 'tools/script' directories that contain Perl Modules.`
		6835
		6836
		6837	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6838	`Version: JATS_2.53.2 Released: 13-Jun-06`
		6839	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6840	`Major changes:`
		6841	`* Deployment. GetMassInstId.rul (From George Christidis)`
		6842	`Added support for SILENT_MODE`
		6843
		6844
		6845	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6846	`Version: JATS_2.53.1 Released: Not release`
		6847	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6848
		6849	`Not Released.`
		6850	`This label waas used as a place keeper. This version was not used as a basis`
		6851	`for JATS_2.53.2. Its much closer to JATS_2.54.0.`
		6852
		6853
		6854	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6855	`Version: JATS_2.53.0 Released: 11-Apr-06`
		6856	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6857	`Major changes:`
		6858	`* Deployment Scripts: Release Manager Database Access`
		6859	`The mechanism for communicating with the Release Manager Database has been`
		6860	`radically replaced.`
		6861
		6862	`A test tool has been added to prove connectivity to Release Manager.`
		6863	`Usage:`
		6864	`jats etool test_rmconnection`
		6865
		6866	`The pervious scripts used DBI::ODBC to communicate with the Oracle`
		6867	`Database that contains Release Manager. There were a number of problems with`
		6868	`this solution:`
		6869	`- Required the installation of two Perl Modules`
		6870	`- Required the installation of an Oracle client`
		6871	`- Required the use of an ODBC bridge machine when used on Solaris`
		6872	`- Support for Perl within Oracle appears to be on the decline`
		6873
		6874	`The solutions uses a Java application and Java's jdbc. The oracle:thin`
		6875	`client is used as this does not require any installation or configuration in`
		6876	`order to work.`
		6877
		6878	`JATS overrides Perl's DBI package with a package of the same name, but`
		6879	`reduced functionality.`
		6880
		6881
		6882	`Minor changes:`
		6883	`* makefile.pl directive: SetValue`
		6884	`Added a '--' option to disable and enable parsing of options.`
		6885	`This allows a value with leading '--' to be set.`
		6886
		6887	`* makefile.pl directive: SetList`
		6888	`Added this directive to formalise the creation and processing of lists`
		6889	`within the makefiles.`
		6890	`Options:`
		6891	`--NoWarn Disable name clash warnings`
		6892	`--Project=xxxx[,xxxx]+ Add to list in selected projects`
		6893	`--Unique Add only if not already present`
		6894	`--Clear Clear list, before adding new items`
		6895	`--Append Append items to list (default)`
		6896	`-- Disable/Enable option parsing`
		6897	`Useage:`
		6898
		6899	`SetList ('*', 'LibList', 'lib1', 'lib2', '--Project=syd');`
		6900	`SharedLib ('*', 'MyDLL', @OBJS, @LibList );`
		6901
		6902	`* Makefile.pl directive: RunTest`
		6903	`Corrected the option of the --CopyIn=file option where the specified file`
		6904	`is not in the current directory.`
		6905
		6906	`* Jats Command: ant'`
		6907	`This command has been extended to make use of the -buildfile=xxxx option`
		6908	`to allow multiple buildfiles to be differentiated.`
		6909
		6910	`eg: jats -buildfile=MyPackage ant`
		6911
		6912	`* TOOLSET: DAFBR Compiler support`
		6913	`Modified the toolset to support an optimisation feature of the next`
		6914	`generation of the daf_br_compiler. These will be enabled if the major version`
		6915	`of the package containing the compiler is greater the "1". ie: 2.0.0.cr`
		6916
		6917	`* Interface helper files: set_XXXX.bat/.sh`
		6918	`Added provision to process user command arguments.`
		6919	`Thus`
		6920
		6921	`set_WIN32.bat prog`
		6922
		6923	`will set the WIN32 environment and run the command: prog`
		6924
		6925
		6926	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6927	`Version: JATS_2.52.2 Released: 30-Mar-06`
		6928	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6929	`Major changes:`
		6930
		6931	`Minor changes:`
		6932	`* Addressed issue with BUILDNAME, an internal variable.`
		6933	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user build.pl's they need to be`
		6934	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a project`
		6935	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		6936	`$(BUILDNAME) contains two or three space seperated fields - always`
		6937
		6938	`* m16c Toolset - MCRFirmware`
		6939	`Force the generation of .thx and payload files when the .bin files are`
		6940	`created. Previously this only occured in the packaging phase.`
		6941
		6942	`Internal changes:`
		6943	`* JATS toolsets`
		6944	`Added a feature to allow a toolset to flag additional files that get created`
		6945	`as a part of a "Prog". This allows a "Prog" definition to generate a`
		6946	`number of files, some which may be packaged.`
		6947
		6948	`Previously such files where only generated during the packaging phase. Now`
		6949	`they will be generated during the make_prog phase - with the other programs.`
		6950
		6951	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6952	`Version: JATS_2.52.1 Released: 29-Mar-06`
		6953	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6954	`Major changes:`
		6955	`* Jats command: etool`
		6956	`Extended to allow execution of deployment tools. This allows the deployment`
		6957	`tools to use the JATS core perl modules.`
		6958
		6959	`* Address issues with the use of BUILDVER and ScmBuildVer`
		6960	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user makefile.pl's they need to be`
		6961	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a projectt`
		6962	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		6963	`$(BUILDVERSION) contains the project extension - always`
		6964	`$ScmBuildVersion does not contain a project extension - always`
		6965
		6966	`Minor changes:`
		6967
		6968
		6969	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6970	`Version: JATS_2.52.0 Released: 27-Mar-06`
		6971	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6972	`Major changes:`
		6973	`* JATS environment variables`
		6974	`Added GBE_DPKG_STORE`
		6975	`Optionally addresses a dpkg_archive store. This is intended to allow`
		6976	`read only access to a remote repository. The GBE_DPKG_STORE will be`
		6977	`searched after GBE_DPKG. It will be searched last. JATS, be default,`
		6978	`will not publish packages in this repository.`
		6979
		6980	`Uses: Seed repository for a complete build`
		6981	`Remote repository`
		6982
		6983	`Added GBE_DPLY`
		6984	`Optionally addresses a Deployment Archive. This is only used in the`
		6985	`placement of deployment packages. This value may be project specific.`
		6986
		6987	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		6988	`Changes the mechanism used to link against the compiler RTL.`
		6989	`Previously the RTL was included multiple times in the link order. This`
		6990	`created problem with daf_dsi as the function 'time()' was being satisfied by`
		6991	`the RTL before being satisfied by the user libraries.`
		6992
		6993	`The compiler RTL is now treated as a library of last resort. It will be`
		6994	`processed once and it will be processed last.`
		6995
		6996
		6997	`Minor changes:`
		6998	`* JATS utility: build`
		6999	`* JATS utility: cache_dpkg`
		7000	`Extended the package search algorithm to locate a package within`
		7001	`GBE_DPKG_STORE. This archive will be searched last.`
		7002
		7003	`* JATS utility: gen_cots`
		7004	`Ensure label is not locked`
		7005	`Add option to allow user to specify source directory other than a package`
		7006	`that already exists in dpkg_archive.`
		7007
		7008	`* JATS directive: PackageFile`
		7009	`Now supports --Prod and --Debug options to limit the packaging process`
		7010	`to a specific type of build.`
		7011
		7012	`* JATS directive: GenerateFiles and RunTests`
		7013	`Added a --PackageInfo() replacement tag to allow package version information`
		7014	`to be extracted and passed to generator programs.`
		7015	`ie: --PackageInfo(sysbasetypes,syd,--fullversion)`
		7016
		7017	`Extended the --PackageBase() replacement tag to work with packages such as`
		7018	`sysbasetypes, where there is a .cr and a .syd type.`
		7019	`ie: --PackageBase(sysbasetypes,syd)`
		7020
		7021	`* JATS utility: release`
		7022	`Under windows, ensure that the directory C:\Clearcase exists. There have`
		7023	`been installations of Clearcase where this is directory does not exist.`
		7024
		7025	`* JATS utility: label`
		7026	`Added option: "-comment=Text" to allow a comment to be added to a label,`
		7027	`when it is being created.`
		7028
		7029	`Internal Changes`
		7030	`* JATS utility: create_dpkg`
		7031	`Refactored code to use JATS DescPkg class.`
		7032
		7033	`Added options to allow packaging to the various archives. This is of no use`
		7034	`to the normal developer, but will be used within the complete build system.`
		7035
		7036	`* Factored out the parsing of the BuildName directive`
		7037	`This process was being done in 3 locations - and there were getting`
		7038	`different results.`
		7039
		7040	`* ToolsetRequire directive`
		7041	`This has been extended to allow JATS to locate Toolset extensions within`
		7042	`packages. They should be placed within the tool/scripts directory`
		7043
		7044	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7045	`Version: JATS_2.51.0 Released: 15-Mar-06`
		7046	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`

		7053	`Version: JATS_2.50.0 Released: 15-Feb-06`
		7054	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7055	`Major changes:`
		7056	`* WIN32 utilities`
		7057	`Replaced a number of the Windows utilities ( cp, rm, mv ...)`
		7058	`with versions from the GNUWin32 project.`
		7059
		7060	`The 'cp' previously used could not recursively copy large directories`
		7061	`under Windows Server 2003, when both the source and destination are on the`
		7062	`same drive. ( dpkg_cache of ace ).`
		7063
		7064	`Minor changes:`
		7065	`* BuildVersion`
		7066	`The definition of VERSION_BUILD within the generated version-defs.h file`
		7067	`will have leading zeros removed, thus allowing it to be used within a 'C'`
		7068	`program without the number being interpreted as an octal constant.`
		7069
		7070	`The string form (VERSION_BUILD_STR) will retain the zeros.`
		7071
		7072	`* Unix Builds`
		7073	`Corrected several issues encountered when specifying the name of a static`
		7074	`library or a shared library.`
		7075
		7076	`JATS will prepend 'lib' to the user specified library name. Problems occurred`
		7077	`when the user specified a library name that started with 'lib'. Now, on Unix`
		7078	`systems, JATS will only prepend 'lib' if the library name does not already`
		7079	`start with 'lib'.`
		7080
		7081	`* BuildPkgArchive`
		7082	`Since 2.45.0 JATS will only transfer files for the BuildPkgArchive, if`
		7083	`they have not already been transferred. Added a test for the source`
		7084	`package being updated and then forceing the copy to be repeated.`
		7085
		7086	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7087	`Version: JATS_2.49.0 Released: 10-Feb-06`
		7088	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7089	`Major changes:`
		7090	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		7091	`Corrected a problem with the dependencies between a .REL file and the target`
		7092	`THX file. If the .REL files was modified the output THX file did not get`
		7093	`regenerated. This was only a problem in cases where the .REL file was`
		7094	`being manually maintained.`
		7095
		7096
		7097	`Minor changes:`
		7098	`* MakeAnt directive`
		7099	`Introduced a check to ensure that this directive is only used with a toolset`
		7100	`that can handle an 'ant' build file. Currently only the JAVA toolset`
		7101	`supports ANT builds.`
		7102
		7103	`* BuildPkgArchive directive`
		7104	`Correct problem in the caching of BuildPkgArchive packages in the case where`
		7105	`there is no GBE_DPKG_LOCAL on the machine.`
		7106
		7107	`* Label utility`
		7108	`Added a 'files=filename,filename' option to allow only specified`
		7109	`files to be labeled.`
		7110
		7111	`* Build. Parsing descpkg files`
		7112	`Corrected problem in which Java Manifest files were not parsed correctly`
		7113	`on Solaris.`
		7114
		7115	`* Generated makefiles`
		7116	`Fix a bug with the CompilerOptions that allowed a '0' definition to be set to`
		7117	`nothing.`
		7118
		7119	`* MOS Toolset`
		7120	`Added 'CompileOptions' of CcSupervisor.`
		7121	`This will set a MOS internal definition suitable for building specialised`
		7122	`modules.`
		7123
		7124	`* Utility: gen_cots`
		7125	`This utility will create a JATS buildable package froma dpkg_archive entry`
		7126	`and then check it in under clearcase.`
		7127
		7128	`JATS etool gen_cots -man will provide only help.`
		7129
		7130	`* Utilty cache_dpkg`
		7131	`Detect and repair incomplete copy operations.`
		7132

		7135	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7136	`Major changes:`
		7137	`None`
		7138
		7139	`Minor changes:`
		7140	`* DEVI addressed`
		7141	`DEVI-022055 JATS builds DLLs with wrong copyright symbol in version resource`
5710	dpurdie	7142	`DEVI-022054 JATS puts "VIX Group test" in Product Name of Windows resource`
227	dpurdie	7143
		7144	`* Utility: release (cbuild)`
		7145	`Added an option to create a view configured to work with a branching`
		7146	`rule. A single branch can be named with the -branch option. eg:`
		7147
		7148	`jats release -extract 'label' -branch SITS_LEGACY_BRANCH`
		7149
		7150	`will create a view based on the named label, but suitable for creating`
		7151	`a patch for Sydney Legacy work.`
		7152
		7153	`* RunTest directive`
		7154	`The 'PATH' that the test uses is extended to allow access to programs that have`
		7155	`been installed with a InstallProg directive. This allows a test script to`
		7156	`test a program that is generated elsewhere within the package.`
		7157
		7158	`* PackageFile, Option --DirTree`
		7159	`Support for filenames that contain a "$" or a ' ' within the`
		7160	`--DirTree option. Implemented to allow entire JAVA class trees to be`
		7161	`packaged under JATS`
		7162
		7163	`Note: In general the use of a $ and space within a filename is not`
		7164	`supported within JATS.`
		7165
		7166	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7167	`Added an eprog option. The allows any program to be run within the`
		7168	`sanitized environment provided by JATS.`
		7169
		7170	`The specified program may be in the current directory or the user's`
		7171	`PATH. If the program is a perl script then it will be run with the`
		7172	`JATS perl interpreter, otherwise it will be processed by the system.`
		7173
		7174	`Eg: jats eprog myscript arg1 arg2`
		7175	`Eg: jats ant`
		7176
		7177	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7178	`Added an 'ant' command. ( "jats ant" )`
		7179
5710	dpurdie	7180	`This will run an VIX ANT build by scanning the current directory for a file`
227	dpurdie	7181	`called <ProjectName>depends.xml and then looking the a file called`
		7182	`<ProjectName>.xml. Jats will then create 'auto.xml' based on the`
		7183	`<ProjectName>depends.xml file and use ant to invoke the`
		7184	`<ProjectName>.xml file.`
		7185
5710	dpurdie	7186	`If the VIX build files cannot be found then ant is simply run and it will`
227	dpurdie	7187	`expect a build.pl file.`
		7188
		7189	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7190	`Force the environment variable PERL5INC to be unset.`
		7191
		7192	`* Jats utility: create_dpkg`
		7193	`Simplify handling of ANT based projects. Look for the package within`
		7194	`the build/pkg subdirectory, in the JANTS style.`
		7195
		7196	`* Utility: gen_winrc (DEVI-022054)`
		7197	`Added a "'-product=text'" option to allow the product name to be specified.`
		7198
		7199	`* Build files`
		7200	`Handle the java generated descpkg files. These are a Manifest format with`
5710	dpurdie	7201	`VIX extensions.`

		7207	`* BuildVersion directive in build.pl`
		7208	`Correct a problem in the generation of version.c`
		7209	`The function GetModuleInfo() would return a string with a trailing`
		7210	`space when the 'array' mode was selected.`
		7211
		7212	`This may cause module validation to fail.`
		7213
		7214	`Minor changes:`
		7215	`* None`
		7216
		7217	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7218	`Version: JATS_2.46.0 Released: 08-Dec-05`
		7219	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7220	`Major changes:`
		7221	`* BuildProduct and BuildPlatforms directives`
		7222	`Added option --Uses=NAME`
		7223	`ie:`
		7224	`BuildProduct ( 'OBFTP,--Uses=TP5', 'MOSCF' );`
		7225
		7226	`This will create a OBFTP_MOSCF platform that will 'use' TP5`
		7227	`headers and libraries if none are specifically provided for the`
		7228	`OBFTP. It is the users responsibily to ensure that the two build`
		7229	`environments are compatible.`
		7230
		7231
		7232	`Minor changes:`
		7233	`* BuildName option`
		7234	`Modifications to allow the creation of COTS packages with buildnames`
5710	dpurdie	7235	`that do not confirm to the VIX naming scheme (--RelaxedVersion).`
227	dpurdie	7236
		7237	`* jats.bat`
		7238	`Ensure that GBE_BIN is not defined`
		7239	`It will be set by the jats.pl to a fully qualified path.`
		7240
		7241	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7242	`Version: JATS_2.45.0 Released: 29-Nov-05`
		7243	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7244	`Major changes:`
		7245	`* BuildPkgArchive directive`
		7246	`The operation of the BuildPkgArchive directive has been modified`
		7247	`so that a package will only be installed once. This significantly`
		7248	`speeds up multiple 'build' operations.`
		7249
		7250	`If the package is being extracted from the 'local archive', then`
		7251	`this mechanism is suppressed as packages in the local archive are`
		7252	`considered as under development and are subject to change.`
		7253
		7254	`If package cache is being refreshed, then the package will be`
		7255	`installed a second time. Thus it is possible to force the package to`
		7256	`be transferred into the 'interface' directory.`
		7257
		7258	`A BuildTags directory is used to track packages that have been`
		7259	`transferred.`
		7260
		7261	`* Internal changes to factor common code into a group of packages.`
		7262	`See notes below.`
		7263
		7264	`* WIN32 toolset`
		7265	`Allow the Microsoft preprocessor directive #import to operate`
		7266	`correctly.`
		7267
		7268	`Export the complete library search path into the build environment`
		7269	`for all Microsoft command, not just the linker and library commands.`
		7270
		7271	`* BuildVersion`
		7272	`Modifications to allow the generation of version files for C#`
		7273	`The mechanism has been extended to allow version information for`
		7274	`other langauges as needed.`
		7275
		7276
		7277	`Minor changes:`
		7278	`* Utility: gen_winrc.pl`
		7279	`Will extracted build number from the patch number, if present.`
		7280	`This information will be available to be placed into the generation`
		7281	`version strings.`
		7282
		7283	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		7284	`Fixed a problem detecting programs that were not in the local`
		7285	`package or an imported package.`
		7286
		7287	`* Toolsets: MOS_MRI`
		7288	`Generate an error if required tools are not found.`
		7289	`Previously this condition would generate a warning.`
		7290
		7291	`* BuildPkgArchive and LinkPkgArchive directives`
		7292	`Ensure that packages are only included once. The previous check`
		7293	`was half-hearted and could allow multiple packages of the same`
		7294	`version to be included. This could result in badly formed`
		7295	`makefiles and strange error messages.`
		7296
		7297	`Internal Changes`
		7298	`* Started to factor out internal packages and place them into a common`
		7299	`directory. This will allow common error handling thoughout the suite`
		7300	`of utilities.`
		7301
		7302	`Modified all utilities to utilize the common error reporting`
		7303	`functions.`
		7304
		7305	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7306	`Version: JATS_2.44.0 Released: 18-Nov-05`
		7307	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7308	`Major changes:`
		7309	`* Generated makefiles`
		7310	`Modified the windows shell to remove the use of the EXTENDED_LINE`
		7311	`cache. This did not work. Modified the extend.lst file to ensure`
		7312	`that sed did not process its arguments.`
		7313
		7314	`This has been done to address a problem seen within test scripts`
		7315	`within unit tests that use wildcard expansion. The windows shell was`
		7316	`incorrectly processing:`
		7317	`sed '-es~.*WIN32~~'`
		7318	`The '.*' construct was being seen as a wildcard and the shell was`
		7319	`then putting the argument into a command file - it was totally`
		7320	`confused.`
		7321
		7322	`NOTE: Attempted to remove use of EXTENDED_LINE, but this caused a`
		7323	`breakage with the DOS based gcc compiler( ie:H8S and others).`
		7324	`The construct`
		7325	`-D__SOURCE__=\"name\"`
		7326	`was corrupted somewhere. If the command is put in a command file,`
		7327	`then it works.`
		7328
		7329	`* MakeAnt directive`
		7330	`Added option: --GeneratedFile=PathOfFile`
		7331
		7332	`This option has the following effects`
		7333	`1) Marks the file a source file. It is then known to JATS and`
		7334	`can be used installed and manipulated.`
		7335
		7336	`2) Schedules the processing of the ANT build to be done`
		7337	`early - in the generated files phase.`
		7338
		7339	`Intended use. The creation of packages with a JNI. The Java`
		7340	`component needs to generate a header file early.`
		7341
		7342
		7343	`Minor changes:`
		7344	`* JATS post-installation script`
		7345	`Flag deployment tools and libraries as executable.`
		7346
		7347	`* Detection of extension type is case insensitive for non-unix`
		7348	`systems. Thus .h and .H files will considered header files in`
		7349	`windows.`
		7350
		7351	`* Build.pl rewrite tool`
		7352	`Handle all variants of BuildName`
		7353
		7354	`* Jats wrapper script`
		7355	`Generate an error if the JATS configuration variables are not usable`
		7356	`1) Contain spaces`
		7357	`2) Start with a // - Remote drives must be mapped`
		7358
		7359	`* Toolset`
		7360	`Added a 'LINUX' platform.`
		7361
		7362	`* JAVA toolset`
		7363	`Ensure the that build file passed via MakeAnt contains the following`
		7364	`directive:`
		7365
		7366	`includeAntRuntime="off"'`
		7367
		7368	`This MUST be used to ensure that ANT's classpath is not passed to`
		7369	`the java compiler thus ensuring that the compiler does not use ANT's`
		7370	`version of any JAR files that have not been specified by the user.`
		7371
		7372	`* GCC Toolset`
		7373	`Use -Map name to create map files as needed for GCC under Debian`
		7374
		7375	`* Makefile generation`
		7376	`When packages are used by name to resolve package location JATS`
		7377	`has been modified to use the package name specified by the user.`
		7378	`Previously JATS would use the package name found within the`
		7379	`descpkg file. In cases where the descpkg file was badly formed the`
		7380	`package could not be used.`
		7381
		7382	`* Unit Tests`
		7383	`The following environment variables are set:`
		7384
		7385	`GBE_TYPE - The type of build. Debug or production. This`
		7386	`will be set to either a 'P' or 'D'`
		7387
		7388	`GBE_HOST - The host machine we are running on.`
		7389	`This will be set to 'WIN' or Unix'`
		7390
		7391	`These variable should assist in the production of test scripts.`
		7392
		7393	`* New makefile.pl directive: SetValue`
		7394
		7395
		7396	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7397	`Version: JATS_2.43.0 Released: 01-Nov-05`
		7398	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7399	`Major changes:`
		7400	`* New Platform : "MCR" using the Mitsubishi m16c compiler.`
		7401
		7402	`Special features of this toolset.`
		7403	`1) A .THX source file will be converted to an obtect file`
		7404	`This allows processing of fonts within a THX file to be`
		7405	`incorporated within the target image.`
		7406
		7407	`2) Prog directive extensions:`
		7408	`--Set=Name=Value`
		7409	`The 'Name' is set to 'Value' at link time.`
		7410	`This allows the location of program segments to be set`
		7411
		7412	`--Ref=name`
		7413	`The name of a Release file. If provided, it will be used`
		7414	`to provide information that will be placed within the`
		7415	`THX header. The version number will be ignored. It`
		7416	`will be taken from the build version number.`
		7417
		7418	`Minor changes:`
		7419	`* MOS Toolset`
		7420	`Create the VisionClick files when the THX file is created.`
		7421	`Previously the files were created when the THX was installed or`
		7422	`packaged.`
		7423
		7424	`* Src directive`
		7425	`No generates a warning if no source files are located within the`
		7426	`directive. This is normally the result of a missing platform`
		7427	`specifier.`
		7428
		7429	`* WIN32 runtime support`
		7430	`Added the following 'Unix' style utilities to assist in testing.`
		7431	`1) od - dump files in octal and other formats`
		7432	`2) cmp - compare two files byte by byte`
		7433
		7434	`Internal:`
		7435	`Added an extension to allow the target toolset to handle the "Prog"`
		7436	`dependancy generation if required. This allow complex program`
		7437	`generation mechanisms to be handled by the toolset.`
		7438
		7439	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7440	`Version: JATS_2.42.0 Released: 19-Oct-05`
		7441	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7442	`Major changes:`
		7443	`* BuildAlias directive`
		7444	`Added options.`
		7445	`--Define - Does not create implicit platforms`
		7446	`--Target - Redeclares the alais as the list of all`
		7447	`platforms that are based on a given target or`
		7448	`targets.`
		7449	`Eg:`
		7450	`BuildAlias ( 'LMOS,--Target', 'LMOS_WIN32', 'LMOS_linux_armv4' );`
		7451	`BuildProduct ( 'GAK', 'LMOS', 'MOS68K', 'MOSCF' );`
		7452	`BuildProduct ( 'PCP', 'LMOS', 'MOS68K' );`
		7453
		7454	`Will export an alias of LMOS that can be used within makefile.pl's`
		7455	`that will be the list of all platforms that have a target of`
		7456	`'LMOS_WIN32' or 'LMOS_linux_armv4'.`
		7457
		7458	`Note the dual use of LMOS within the example. This is intentional.`
		7459	`The LMOS alias is used within the BuildProduct to simplify the`
		7460	`specification of all the LMOS targets.`
		7461
		7462
		7463	`Minor changes:`
		7464	`* Label utility`
		7465	`Will generate a warning message if it labels more than one`
		7466	`build.pl file`
		7467
		7468	`* Package directives. PackageFile.`
		7469	`Corrected a problem with wildcard expansion in which a --FilterIn`
		7470	`needed to be specified in order for the --FilterOut to operate.`
		7471	`Now all files in the tree are considered 'in' unless modified by the`
		7472	`--FilterIn option.`
		7473
		7474	`* jats release (cbuilder) utility`
		7475	`Correct use of the -prodOnly and -debugOnly flags.`
		7476	`The full name was not accepted; -debug and -prod was.`
		7477
		7478	`* Location of descpkg file`
		7479	`All makefile.pl's now know where the package descpkg file was`
		7480	`created. This simplifies the process og packaging this file as it`
		7481	`can be done within any makefile.pl.`
		7482
		7483	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7484	`Version: JATS_2.41.0 Released: 27-Sep-05`
		7485	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7486	`Major changes:`
		7487	`* RunTest directive`
		7488	`Extended the options and operation of RunTest`
		7489	`Additional options`
		7490	`--CopyIn=file`
		7491	`This will copy the specified file into the BIN directory before`
		7492	`the test is run. The file will be marked as executable. This`
		7493	`allows scripts and configuration files to be transferred into`
		7494	`the test area.`
		7495
		7496	`Additional operations`
		7497	`The arguments passed to the script/program allow a number of`
		7498	`transformations, similar to GenerateFiles. Transforms`
		7499	`--File(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a known file`
		7500	`--Local(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a file that has been Installed`
		7501	`--PackageBase(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a Package`
		7502	`Allows flags:`
		7503	`--dir - directory part of the pathname`
		7504	`--file - file part of the pathname`
		7505	`--abspath - as an absolute path`
		7506	`--absdrive - as an absolute path with drive letter (Windows)`
		7507
		7508	`Files and directories are prerequisites of the test. Their`
		7509	`existence is tested.`
		7510
		7511	`* Packaging Directives`
		7512	`Added a --Derived option to support the packaging of derived targets`
		7513	`such as LMOS.`
		7514
		7515	`PackageHdr ('*', 'file1.h', '--Derived=LMOS');`
		7516
		7517	`Will place file1.h into .../include/LMOS_WIN32`
		7518
		7519	`PackageHdr ('*', 'file1.h', '--Derived=LMOS,sys');`
		7520
		7521	`Will place file1.h into .../include/LMOS_WIN32/sys`
		7522
		7523	`* JAVA 1.4 and 1.5`
		7524	`Added support to the JATS JAVA platform to allow the user to specify`
		7525	`the version of Java to be used to build a package.`
		7526
		7527	`BuildPlatforms ( 'JAVA,--Version=1.5' );`
		7528
		7529	`The default will use the default machine version of JAVA.`
		7530	`This may not be sutable for all packages.`
		7531
		7532	`Non-default versions of JAVA require that an environment variable be`
		7533	`set to the root of the JDK directory. These are:`
		7534
		7535	`JAVA_HOME_1_4`
		7536	`JAVA_HOME_1_5`
		7537
		7538	`Minor changes:`
		7539	`* Script directive`
		7540	`Scripts may be copied into the BIN directory for use by a test.`
		7541	`These scripts are now always marked as executable.`
		7542
		7543	`* JATS environment`
		7544	`Ensure that all programs run under JATS in Windows have an uppercase`
		7545	`COMSPEC envvar. Windows appears to define a mixed case one. Fixed in`
		7546	`the JATS wrapper script.`
		7547
		7548	`* Label utility`
		7549	`Added -[no]checkout to control the labeling of checked out files.`
		7550	`There are three modes of operation:`
		7551	`1) -nocheckout Checked out files are not labeled`
		7552	`2) -checkout Only checked out files are labeled`
		7553	`3) Neither All files are labeled.`

		7560
		7561	`Minor changes:`
		7562	`* label utility`

		7564	`This options retains the locked state of a label.`
		7565
		7566	`* AVR_IAR toolset`
		7567	`Extended the 'Prog' directive to allow a Program Loader to be`
		7568	`added to a program as it is created. The option is:`
		7569	`--ProgLoader=name`
		7570
		7571	`* Package directives. PackageFile`
		7572	`Added support for packaging of directory trees.`
		7573	`Options to do this are:`
		7574	`--TreeDir=name`
		7575	`--FilterOut=regexp`
		7576	`--FilterIn=regexp`
		7577	`--StripDir`
		7578
		7579	`Only a single directory can be specified.`
		7580	`Multiple filters are allowed.`
		7581	`The directories must be within the current directory. It is not`
		7582	`possible to search outside the subdirectory tree below the makefile.`
		7583
		7584	`The filters allow elements within the directory to be selected.`
		7585	`The filters are regular expressions. Examples:`
		7586
		7587	`'--FilterIn=\.h$' - Select all files ending with .h`
		7588	`'--FilterOut=MyHeader.h' - Except this one`
		7589
		7590	`The --StripDir option will remove the TreeDir directory from the`
		7591	`files. This allows the top level directory to be stripped off.`
		7592
		7593
		7594	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7595	`Version: JATS_2.39.0 Released: 14-Sep-05`
		7596	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7597	`Major changes:`
		7598	`* Make commands`
		7599	`Consolidated the parsing of the OPTIONS arguments.`
		7600
		7601	`The filter and nofilter options are globally applied to all tools`
		7602	`sets. ie: jats make debug OPTIONS=nofilter`
		7603
		7604	`* Label utility`
		7605	`Generate a warning when attempting to label a symbolic link.`
		7606	`Links are very hard to maintain in a reproducible manner.`
		7607
		7608	`Minor changes:`
		7609	`* Toolsets`
		7610	`Replaced the use of c:\WINDOWS and c:\Program Files with suitable`
		7611	`variables and overrides.`
		7612
		7613	`The make_init target is always run.`
		7614	`This facility had been lost. The target was being used to provide`
		7615	`compiler sanity testing, but had was not being reliably run.`
		7616
		7617	`* Deployment`
		7618	`Suppress testing of compiler existence when used in conjunction`
		7619	`with deployment operations.`
		7620
		7621	`* Release utility`
		7622	`Add options to build only the debug or the production versions.`
		7623	`The default is to build both. Note: User option may be further`
		7624	`restricted by options within the build.`
		7625
		7626	`* PackageLib, InstallLib and MergeLib directives in makefile.pl`
		7627	`The use of @LIBS and @MLIBS in unix systems was causing a`
		7628	`problem as these variables already had a 'lib' prepended to the`
		7629	`list of libraries. These directives would add another 'lib' to the`
		7630	`list of libraries under unix causing a mismatch.`
		7631
		7632	`Corrected by stripping liblib from the names within these`
		7633	`directives.`
		7634
		7635	`* MakeProject directive`
		7636	`If the project build fails the log file was not being displayed`
		7637	`because 'make' stops when a command fails.`
		7638
		7639	`The MakeProject operations have been modified to ensure that the`
		7640	`log file is always displayed. The exit code of the build command`
		7641	`is preserved.`
		7642
		7643	`* Auto build utility jats-rewrite.pl`
		7644	`Modified to support the rewrite of Java 'using' and 'project'`
		7645	`statements.`
		7646
		7647	`* Mugfile generation`
		7648	`Added a --ThxDir=xxxx option to allow the THX and load files to`

		7661	`number.`
		7662
		7663	`Minor changes:`
		7664	`* AddFlags directives`
		7665	`Added a --NoWarn option that will suppress the warning of`
		7666	`duplicate flags being added.`
		7667
		7668	`* GBE_CORE environment variable (Windows)`
		7669	`Ensure that GBE_CORE has a driver letter. This allows use of JATS`
		7670	`loaded into the same dynamic view as the user code.`
		7671
		7672	`* Mug File Generation`
		7673	`Added support to allow load files to include other load files.`
		7674
		7675	`* 'cbuild' or 'release' command`
		7676	`Added a -latestroot=xxxx option. This is a work around for the`
		7677	`problem where the root level directory in the VOB has not been`
		7678	`labeled. After using this switch add the label to the root`
		7679	`directory.`
		7680

		7921	`* Support for Windows DLLs`
		7922	`When building a WIN32 target the file interface/set_WIN32.bat is`

		8005	`If whitespace did exist then the makefile.pl would not do what`

		8160	`* SOLARIS_SPARC platform (GCC toolset)`
		8161	`The process of creating a Shared Libraries creates a soft link`
		8162	`to the the "GBEBIN" directory. This directory was not listed as`
		8163	`a prerequisite and was not being created. This problem has been`
		8164	`corrected.`
		8165
		8166	`* JATS will detect an "auto.pl" file and use it as an alternate`
		8167	`build.pl file. Previously this file was named build.use.pl.`
		8168

		8199	`* Correct problem in handling the SOLARIS_SPARC platform.`
		8200	`The SOLARIS platform is a bit of a kludge for backward`

		8203
		8204	`* Preliminary Support`
		8205	`Global build options of --OnlyDebug and --OnlyProd, which are`

		8212
		8213	`These options limit processing to either Production or Debug`
		8214	`building. The default build will build both.`
		8215
		8216	`Minor changes:`
		8217	`* Extended the search path that JATS will use attempting to locate`
		8218	`a build.pl file. JATS will now look in ., build and build/jats`
		8219	`directories in the current directory and 3 directories up.`

		8250
		8251	`* LinkPkgArchive and BuildPkgArchive will cause the build to fail if`

		8255

		8456	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8457	`Major changes:`
		8458	`* Modified the order in which the makefiles passes operate. Merged`
		8459	`the make_shlib and the install_shlib into one phase. The`
		8460	`implication of this is that Shared Libraries that are created can`
		8461	`"installed" so that other shared libraries can link against them.`
		8462	`The order in which the makefile.pl's are processed is important as`
		8463	`this is the order in which the libraries will be created and`
		8464	`installed.`
		8465
		8466	`This solution does not handle mutual shared libraries: two shared`
		8467	`libraries that depend on each other.`

		8478	`first directory named with a BuildDir directive, unless a`

		8480	`of the older JATS, without the need for a "src" directory.`

		8493	`* Fixed problem with the local_dpkg_archive consistency test when`
		8494	`a soft link is used to redirect to the package.`

		8499
		8500	`Add an option to Shared Library creation to allow the generation of`

		8504	`in the same manner at Shared Libraries.`
		8505
		8506	`* WinCE toolsets`
		8507	`Mutual DLL support corrected. Library path is used to resolve`
		8508	`compiler specific libraries.`
		8509
		8510	`* SOLARIS toolset`
		8511	`Prevent the compiler displaying its command line. This is in line`
		8512	`with the other tools sets. The commands can be seen with`
		8513	`OPTIONS=args and this may be set in the users environment.`
		8514
		8515	`Modified the cleanup process to delete the links to shared`
		8516	`libraries. Only files, and not links to files, where being`

		8530	`Major changes:`
		8531	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		8532	`The entire "include" directory is copied into the interface area`
		8533	`The installer was trying to be too smart and only copy platform`
		8534	`specific files,but was missing out many needed subdirectories`
		8535
		8536	`Reduce the warnings generated. These were an artifact of the process`
		8537	`of picking up all the strange variations of the directory structures.`
		8538
		8539	`* Cleaned up the handling of object files that were generated by the`
		8540	`user.`
		8541
		8542	`* MOS Microtec Toolset`
		8543	`Always present an absolute filename to the compiler`
		8544	`Display a shortened filename to allow the user to track progress`

		8574	`1) Allow --Platform=xxx,yyy`
		8575	`Where xxx is a directory prefix and yyy is suffix to the`
		8576	`"platform" name. Only useful within the context of the`
		8577	`PackageFile`
		8578
		8579	`2) The operation of --Platform=xxx when used by the PackageFile`
		8580	`directive now treats the xxx directory as a prefix to the`
		8581	`platform name. Other Package directives still treat it as a`
		8582	`suffix. In practice this is the logical use.`
		8583
		8584	`* Allow InstallLib and PackageLib to install a file that has been`
		8585	`discovered with a "Src" directive. This allows generated files`
		8586	`to be installed and packaged.`

		8588	`Minor changes:`
		8589
		8590	`* cache_dpkg utility`

		8595	`New option -auto to create and label`
		8596
		8597	`* Build WIN32 and WinCe Mutual DLLs with all the object files`
		8598	`This allows the generated import library to contain C++ names`
		8599
		8600	`* The BuildDirTree directive now supports an empty first argument`
		8601	`This allows a NULL tree.dir file, while still creating the root`
		8602	`directory. ie:`
		8603
		8604	`BuildDirTree ( '', 'pkg' );`
		8605
		8606	`* Fixed DEVIM 00019520`

		8615	`* First release for Back Office and Front Office use.`
		8616
		8617	`* Added the jats tool jats_rewrite.pl to rewrite build.pl files.`
		8618	`To be used by the nightly build process.`
		8619
		8620	`* Work around a problem in the Microtec 68K compiler.`
		8621	`The compiler uses temp files. If the temp file name that the`
		8622	`compiler uses already exists, then the compiler will not delete`
		8623	`the file. Instead it appends information to the existing file.`
		8624
		8625	`The workaround is to create the temp files within the build's`
		8626	`interface directory and to remove all temp files before each`
		8627	`compilation.`
		8628
		8629	`This bug does not affect the Mictotec CF compiler.`
		8630
		8631	`Minor changes:`
		8632	`* The "jats clobber" command will remove version definition file, if`
		8633	`one is being produced.`
		8634
		8635	`* Using JATS within a Visual Studio project. The "rebuild all"`
		8636	`option now translates to the JATS unbuild command to do a better`
		8637	`job of cleaning the workspace.`
		8638
		8639	`* Added GetPackageRoot() directive to support the packaging of MOS`
		8640
		8641	`* Generate error message for misuse of the SubDir directive`
		8642
		8643	`* Modified BuildName to allow an '-' in the name.`
		8644	`This provides backward compatibility with existing packages.`
		8645
		8646	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8647	`Version: JATS_2.8.0 Released: 17-Feb-05`
		8648	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8649	`Major changes:`
		8650	`* Added some new WINCE based targets. These require WINCE SDKs to be`
		8651	`installed in order for the compilers to work.`
		8652
		8653	`* New PLATFORMS are WCEIT3000, WCEPA961 and WCEPCM7220`
		8654
		8655	`* All invocations of xmake specify the name of the makefile`
		8656	`This allow GNUMakefiles and the Jats makefiles to exist in the`
		8657	`same directory`
		8658
		8659	`* Overcome a limitation of the Microtec compiler in which the flag`
		8660	`_DEBUG is defined enev in production builds - contrary to the`
		8661	`documenattion.`
		8662
		8663	`Minor changes:`
		8664	`* Process of descpkg files allows for both Unix and DOS line endings`
		8665	`Under Unix JATS would report that the package names don't match`
		8666
		8667	`* Corrected a problem with BuildPkgArchive in which file names with`
		8668	`spaces could not be soft linked. Only affects Unix systems.`
		8669
		8670	`* Added a -rename to the "jats label" utility.`
		8671	`Ensure that the user specified label exists in the VOB`
		8672
		8673	`* Correct problem with "make clean" that resulted in a verbose display`
		8674	`when the verbose option had not been selected`
		8675
		8676	`* Correct a problem with "make unbuild". Changes in the build files`
		8677	`would prevent the execution of the command. This command should`
		8678	`be exempt from this test.`
		8679
		8680	`* Correct a problem with "make clean" in the WIN32 and WINCE`
		8681	`platforms where the .exp files were not deleted.`
		8682
		8683	`* The "JATS clobber" command now invokes "make clobber" and "build`
		8684	`clobber". The result is as clean a clean as it can be.`
		8685
		8686	`Note: Jats "clean" does not remove a lot of files. These can be`
		8687	`removed with "unbuild" and "unpackage". This is what "clobber"`
		8688	`does.`
		8689
		8690	`* The operation of "build clobber" has been cleaned up. It will`
		8691	`not try to invoke make if the makefiles have already been removed.`
		8692
		8693
		8694	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8695	`Version: JATS_2.7.0 Released: 09-Feb-05`
		8696	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8697	`Major changes:`
		8698	`* First release with support for the DAFBR compiler`
		8699
		8700	`* Extended MergeLibrary. Added per-file options of:`
		8701	`--Interface - Pull lib from Interface directory`
		8702	`--Local - Pull lib from Local directory (default)`
		8703	`--SubDir=pathname - Pull lib from a subdirectory`
		8704	`Note: xxxx,pathname still works`
		8705
		8706	`* Added "jats label" to provide a number of useful labeling`
		8707	`operations.`
		8708
		8709	`* Added extensive help to JATS. JATS -man.`
		8710
		8711	`* Added this manual ChangeLog file`
		8712
		8713	`Minor changes`
		8714	`* Added an 'ebin' command to jats to allow the JATS binary tools to`
		8715	`be run in a controlled environment from the command line.`
		8716
		8717	`* Prune the list of library paths passed through to the various`
		8718	`toolsets. If a directory does not have any files in it then the`
		8719	`directory is not added to the library path.`
		8720
		8721	`Thus if a library is located in xxxx/lib/WIN32 then JATS will`
		8722	`not add the xxxx/lib to the path.`
		8723
		8724	`* cbuilder will now look in all VOBs for the user specified label.`
		8725	`The program has a list of "known" labels which it will search`
		8726	`first in an attempt to speed up the process.`
		8727
		8728	`* The AddFlags directive will issue a warning if the flags does not`
		8729	`begin with a -D or a -U. The user should not be using compiler`
		8730	`specific flags.`
		8731
		8732	`* The use of linker flags will issue a warning.`
		8733
		8734	`* Process the common makefile.pl after the toolset has been`
		8735	`determined. This allows the toolset to extend the CompileOptions`
		8736	`such they are available to the common makefile.pl.`
		8737
		8738	`* Added the WIN32 CompileOptions "jats_v1" to force JATS to specify`
		8739	`a number of compile time definitions used by earlier versions of`
		8740	`JATS.`
		8741
		8742	`* Fixed bug in the --Debug option to the PackageProg directives that`
		8743	`caused both the production and debug versions to be packaged.`
		8744
		8745	`* The gen_msproject utility now creates simpler names for the MS`
		8746	`projects that it creates. The name no longer contains the full`
		8747	`pathname, thus making them shorter and readable.`
		8748
		8749	`* The ShowDlls utility now handles absolute and relative paths to`
		8750	`the initial DLL or EXE.`
		8751
		8752	`* Correct problem in which the use of Generate/Rule directives may`
		8753	`fail since prerequisite subdirectories were not being created`
		8754	`since the "generate" phase was not being run.`
		8755
		8756	`Added messages to prompt the user to remove Generate, Generated`
		8757	`and Rule directives. Use the GenerateFiles directive`
		8758
		8759	`* JATS.BAT file will exclude LINUX builds by default.`
		8760
		8761	`* The make NODEPEND=1 processing now does not recurse at all.`
		8762	`Previously each subdirectory was visited - only to do nothing.`
		8763
		8764	`* Correct a problem in creating stub libraries for MOS targets if`
		8765	`the stub library object was not listed with the SharedLib's`
		8766	`objects.`
		8767
		8768	`* Correct a problem with the MS Studio support. The invoked make`
		8769	`command is XXX_all_debug. There was a problem with this command in`
		8770	`that it did not do any dependancy checking and would not always`
		8771	`build defendants.`
