		2247	`The default version control system has been set to 'svn'. This means that`

		2249	`Subversion instance of the command.`
		2250
		2251	`This change will not be picked up by Windows users. They will need to`

		2425	`* Makefile generation`
		2426	`Warning generation of bad source paths does not generate an error`

		2447	`This change also addressed a long-time Windows issue with the packaging`

		2825	`as the main binary.`

321	dpurdie	3550	`Version: 2.84.0000.cr Released: 16-Feb-10`
		3551	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		3552	`Major changes:`
		3553	`* Makefile directive helper function: If`
		3554	`Used within another directive to enable or disable arguments passed to the`
		3555	`outer directive. The first argument is a 'platform' specifier - as in`
		3556	`all Jats Make directives. If making for the specified platform, then the`
		3557	`remainder of the arguments are inserted into the directives argument`
		3558	`stream.`
		3559
		3560	`Example:`
		3561
		3562	`SharedLib ( '*', 'mySharedLib', @OBJS`
		3563	`, If ('WIN32', '-llibrary1', '-llibrary2' )`
		3564	`, If ('SOLARIS', '-llibrary3' )`
		3565	`);`
		3566	`Minor changes:`
		3567	`* Makefile directive: InstallLibs`
		3568	`Correctly installs, as libraries, files that are specified with a 'Src'`
		3569	`directive. This is consistent with the operation of the PackageLibs`
		3570	`directive.`
		3571
		3572	`* GCC Toolkit`
		3573	`Changes to the shared library dependency processing to bring it inline`
		3574	`with other toolers. Will terminate after determining that some`
		3575	`libraries cannot be found. This will ensure that the error message is at`
		3576	`the point of termination.`
		3577
		3578	`* Jats save_build utility`
		3579	`Corrected problem in unreserving a reserved checkout of a build.pl file`
		3580	`under windows.`
		3581
		3582	`* Jats sandbox`
		3583	`ClearCase views created with in the sandbox are created with a tag that`
		3584	`is named after the sandbox. This allows multiple instances of a view`
		3585	`in different sandboxes.`
		3586
		3587	`* Jats release`
		3588	`Display cleartool error messages when view creation fails.`

		3602	`Improved handling of the -file and -dir options`
		3603	`These options will now label the directory elements within the paths`
		3604	`specified by these options, when used in conjunction with the -up option.`
		3605	`This simplified the process of labeling complex directory structures.`
		3606
		3607	`Added -admin, to allow creation of global labels`

		3622
		3623	`* Solaris targets`
		3624	`Full support for a target called SOLARIS8_SPARC32`
		3625	`It is identical to SOLARIS in a 'sparc' build machine, but it is only`
		3626	`available on a 'sparc' build machine. Can be used to limit builds to one`
		3627	`machine type.`

		3651
		3652	`* Solaris 10, 64 Bit Sparc Builds`
		3653	`All compiles are done in a position independent manner (-KPIC)`
		3654	`This solved issues where static libraries are linked into shared`
		3655	`libraries.`
		3656
		3657	`* Solaris builds`
		3658	`Program and Shared library dependency checking is now done before`
		3659	`the program/library objects are built. Thus errors associated with missing`
		3660	`dependencies occur before objects are built and the user can see the cause`
		3661	`of the build failure.`
		3662
		3663
		3664	`Internal changes:`

		3692
		3693	`* jats help`

		3728	`Useful side effects include:`

		3739
313	dpurdie	3740	`* Perl Modules`
		3741	`Included the most recent version of the Pod module within the JATS`

		3761
		3762	`Once labels have been applied a check is done to ensure that`

		3766	`* Jats core`
		3767	`Improved the auto location of the base directory of the build to allow`

		3780
309	dpurdie	3781	`The cmdfile utility creates paths with file path separators as discovered`
307	dpurdie	3782	`in the PATH EnvVar. Now that PATH is nice it means that the use of cmdfile`
309	dpurdie	3783	`to create shell scripts resulted in scripts with unsuitable separators.`
307	dpurdie	3784

		3891	`this occurs.`
		3892
		3893	`* The LinkSandbox directive is not allowed when GBE_ABT is set.`
		3894	`This directive is highly discouraged in development: Use a jats 'sandbox'`

		3983	`This toolset has a number of limitations:`
		3984	`1) It can build either Debug or Production, but not both, in a single`

		3994	`Will create a unit called MyUnit.dcu from the source file 'MyUnit.pas'`

		5074	`Major changes:`
229	dpurdie	5075	`* Jats Release Mechanism`
		5076	`Jats can now release itself. This is not the same a building all of its`

		5078	`released using the 'standard' mechanism.`
		5079
		5080	`Jats releases will be tracked in Release Manager.`
		5081

		5096	`* Perl Version Check`
		5097	`Jats will generate a warning if the version of Perl in use is newer`

		5100
		5101	`* Build Directive: BuildVersion`
		5102	`This directive has been extended to allow the creation of a 'properties'`

		5110	`* Jats Tool: CCbc2`
		5111	`Added utility to use BeyondCompare (BC2) to compare files in two`
		5112	`packages defined as ClearCase labels. The utility creates two dynamic views`
		5113	`and starts BeyondCompare. The views are destroyed at the end of the`
		5114	`process.`
		5115
		5116	`Requires BeyondCompare to be installed in its default location.`

		5124	`* Jats test runtime helper scripts set_PLATFORM.bat`
		5125	`Uses SETLOCAL / ENDLOCAL to prevent environment variables being exported`

		5146	`-pname=Package_Name`
		5147	`-pversion=Package_Version`
		5148

		5160	`* Solaris Toolset`
		5161	`Disable the use of purify, purecov and quantify when building shared`
		5162	`libraries. Shared libraries are not supported by these tools. Executable`

		5171	`* WINCE toolsets`
		5172	`Added a run-time test for the presence of the required toolset`
		5173	`This will report an error if the required WINCE toolset has not been`

		5176
		5177	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		5178	`If the generating tool can only be found in the users path, don't make`

		5190
		5191	`* Jats Tool: release`
		5192	`Corrected a problem when multiple ant builds where located within the`

		5196	`used to limit ANT builds by specifying the name of the depends.xml file.`
		5197
		5198	`* Jats Tool: CCdiff`
		5199	`Added utility to provide difference reports in a format suitable to be`

		5314	`Major changes:`
		5315
		5316	`Minor changes:`
		5317	`PackageLib directive`
		5318	`The construct "PackageLib( '*', @SHLIBS, @LIBS );" now works as expected.`
		5319	`Packaging multiple libraries and shared libraries works as expected.`
		5320	`Packaging multiple shared libraries works as expected.`
		5321
		5322	`MakefileGenerate directive`
		5323	`This directive should only be called once. JATS will now generate a warning,`
		5324	`and not produce an erroneous, if the directive is invoked more than once.`
		5325
		5326	`Multiple Parent detection`
		5327	`A makefile.pl that is invoked from more than one other makefile.pl, or the`

		5330	`condition will be treated as a warning.`
		5331
		5332	`Solaris Toolset`
		5333	`Added option '--WithMisalign' to the SharedLib directive.`
		5334	`When used in conjunction with the 'misalign' CompleOption this option will`

		5336	`link.`
		5337
		5338	`Programs that are created with 'misalign' will automatically include the`
		5339	`misalign.o object file. The fact that shared libraries do not may be an`
		5340	`indication that this is a bad thing to do.`
		5341
		5342	`Make and generation of subdirectories`
		5343	`Fixed an issue which caused created directories to have a bad timestamp.`
		5344	`This could result in multiple attempts to generate the source dependency`
		5345	`file.`
		5346
		5347	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5348	`Version: 2.71.0.cr Released: 10-Oct-07`

		5350	`Major changes:`
		5351	`Makefile generation and make recursion`
		5352	`Extensive changes to the makefiles that are generated by JATS and method by`
		5353	`which JATS recuses through subdirectories during a build.`
		5354
		5355	`Summary of changes:`
		5356	`- Removed the use of 'make' to perform recursion over subdirectories`
		5357	`and platforms. This has been replaced by a JATS program that performs`
		5358	`the same task - only a great deal faster and with a greater scope for`
		5359	`flexibility.`
		5360
		5361	`The user interface remains identical: jats make ....`
		5362
		5363	`- Replaced the generated 'Makefile' with 'Makefile.gbe'. This is a text`
		5364	`file that provides sufficient information to allow JATS to locate the`
		5365	`interface directory and associated build information.`
		5366
		5367	`- Significant speed up in determining the need to rebuild a makefile.`
		5368	`On a large package this has been reduced from 30+ seconds to less`
		5369	`than one second.`
		5370
		5371	`- Significant speed up of large recursive builds through intelligent`
		5372	`building of the 'make_init' target. This is only processed once for`
		5373	`each platform type. Previously it was processed in each and every`
		5374	`makefile. This make target is used, internally, to perform sanity`
		5375	`testing of the compiler environment and to display the name of the`
		5376	`toolset. It is an expensive operation.`
		5377
		5378	`- Intelligent speed up of large recursive through better mechanism`
		5379	`for creating required directories. These are now created on the fly,`
		5380	`rather than via a slow recursive pass though all makefiles.`
		5381
		5382	`- Better makefile rebuilding`
		5383	`Makefiles can be rebuilt on the fly. The previous system was prone to`
		5384	`detecting that makefiles needs to be re-built, but then not re-`
		5385	`building them.`
		5386
		5387	`- Detection of build file changes`
		5388	`The make process will detect that the build file has been modified`
		5389	`and that the component has not been rebuilt. This is a warning. It`
		5390	`does not prevent the 'make' operation.`
		5391
		5392	`- Quieter make output`
		5393	`The 'Nothing to be done' message has been disabled.`
		5394
		5395
		5396	`Minor changes:`
		5397	`MakeAnt Directive`
		5398	`Allows ANT_HOME to be a path with spaces. ie: c:\Program Files\apache-ant-1.6.5`
		5399
		5400	`JATS command "debug" and "prod"`
		5401	`These now handle make arguments and options correctly. Thus the command:`
		5402	`jats prod WIN32 OPTIONS=args`
		5403	`Will correctly do a production build for WIN32 with command execution`
		5404	`display. Before, the system would attempt to process prod_OPTIONS=args.`

		5502	`* Reverted changes made in JATS_2.68.1 to the library search path`
		5503	`Although the search order is broken, we will need to live with it.`
		5504
		5505	`Addressed the search order of /usr/lib under Solaris by adding a new`

		5509	`For the record, the search order for header files and libraries is:`

		5534	`Major changes:`
		5535
		5536	`Minor changes:`
		5537	`* Solaris Toolset`

		5540
		5541	`* RunTest operation`

		5547	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5548	`Version: JATS_2.68.0 Released: 20-Aug-07`
		5549	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5550	`Major changes:`
		5551	`* Trap use of uncontrolled versions of 'ant' and the Java Compiler (javac)`
		5552
		5553	`It was discovered that a few old makefile.pl's where invoking ant and`
		5554	`javac directly in order to build small Java components. This was`
		5555	`normally being done in the guise of the WIN32 target. These packages`
		5556	`were making assumptions about the version of Java on the users search`
		5557	`path.`
		5558
		5559	`JATS can invoke ANT and build Java based components using the MakeAnt`
		5560	`directive and the JAVA platform. This method is controlled and`
		5561	`reproducible.`
		5562
		5563	`This release provides changes such that these packages will not build.`
		5564	`This is better than building incorrectly.`
		5565
		5566	`There are several aspects to the change`
		5567	`1) JATS provides binaries (ant and javac) with an error message. If`
		5568	`the user invoked ant/javac in a manner that involves searching the`
		5569	`PATH then these will be used and report an error.`
		5570
		5571	`2) A special command (jats abt) can be used to start up the Auto Build`
		5572	`Tool in a manner that does not alter the PATH seen by the utilities.`
		5573	`Moreover it does not alter the JAVA_HOME seen by the build. This is`
		5574	`controlled separately.`
		5575
		5576	`Minor changes:`
		5577	`* Sanitize the PATH environment variable`
		5578	`Ensure the JATS bin directory is the first directory searched`
		5579	`Remove duplicates`
		5580	`Place non-existent components at the end of the PATH`
		5581
		5582	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5583	`Version: JATS_2.67.1 Released: 17-Aug-07`
		5584	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5585	`Major changes:`
		5586
		5587	`Minor changes:`
		5588	`* Makefile sanity test`
		5589	`Added a test to ensure that makefiles created on a machine of one type are`
		5590	`not then run on a machine of a different type.`
		5591
		5592	`This will prevent files created on solaris-sparc being used on a solaris-`
		5593	`x86 machine.`
		5594
		5595	`* Correct bug in RunTest`
		5596	`RunTest now extends the PATH to include the local bin directory`
		5597
		5598	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5599	`Version: JATS_2.67.0 Released: 13-Aug-07`
		5600	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5601	`Major changes:`
		5602	`* RunTest directive`
		5603	`Added support for running tests within the NUNIT test framework for the`
		5604	`CSHARP target. In the process a generalized mechanism for accessing`
		5605	`toolset specific test frameworks has been added.`
		5606
		5607	`Changes to the directive to support a FrameWork.`
		5608	`The use of a test FrameWork is signaled with the option`
		5609	`--FrameWork=<name> If this is present then the raw name of the program`
		5610	`under test will be passed to the framework. program.`
		5611
		5612	`If a FrameWork is in use, then JATS will invoke the specified framework`
		5613	`builder within the current toolset.`
		5614
		5615	`When a framework is in place JATS will pass arguments of the form:`
		5616	`'--Tag=Text' to the FrameWork. Other options are processed as normal.`
		5617
		5618	`With in the Nunit FrameWork the program under test will be a DLL Nunit`
		5619	`will only operate on a DLL. The DLL must have been created by the makefile`
		5620	`containing the RunTest directive.`
		5621
		5622	`The Nunit Framework supports the following options:`
		5623	`--Uses=<Name>[,SubOption]+`
		5624
		5625	`This option specifies other DLLs that are used by the TestDLL. They will`
		5626	`be copied in to the test directory, and may be sourced from an external`
		5627	`package or the components 'local' lib directory.`
		5628
		5629	`SubOptions available to The --Uses directive are:`
		5630	`--NonJats This is not a JATS built library. It will not have a`
		5631	`P or D suffix.`
		5632	`--Jats (Default) This is a JATS built library. JATS will`
		5633	`select the correct library type for this build.`
		5634
		5635	`Minor changes:`
		5636	`* New Cache cleanup mechanism`
		5637	`When a package is consumed from the 'cache' a flag is updated within`
		5638	`the cache. The cache aging routines use this file in preference to`
		5639	`the descpkg file, thus it will prevent the aging of packages that are`
		5640	`frequently used. The aging policy can be made more aggressive.`
		5641
		5642	`* Save Build Utility`
		5643	`This utility is used by the Auto Build System to save the 'build.pl' file`
		5644	`used in a ripple build.`
		5645
		5646	`The utility has been enhanced to detect a reserved checkout of the`
		5647	`build.pl. The checkout will be changed to unreserved - if possible.`
		5648
		5649	`* Release Utility`
		5650	`The 'jats release' command will now unlock any labels that it locked`
		5651	`when an error is encountered.`
		5652
		5653	`This simplifies the 'release' process as the developers label will be`
		5654	`unlocked if a build error occurs.`
		5655
		5656	`* Jats caching local copy of itself`
		5657	`Fixed a bug which resulted in an "Use of individualized value" message`
		5658	`being displayed a large number of times during the file transfer process.`
		5659
		5660	`* Minor extension to allow plug-in directives to perform a processing step`
		5661	`before the makefiles are created.`
		5662
		5663	`* TestProg directive`
		5664	`TestProg's are now built in exactly the same manner as Progs`
		5665
		5666	`* Correct problem introduced in 2.66.1 with packaging of files with`
		5667	`a 'space' or '$' in the file name.`
		5668

		5672	`Major changes:`
		5673	`* New build target`

		5675	`LMOS_LINUX_ETX - Support for LMOS on the LINUX_ETX target`
		5676
		5677	`These targets have also been added to the following pseudo targets.`
		5678	`DEVLINUX`
		5679	`LMOS_DEVLINUX`
		5680
		5681	`* Internal utility dpkg_cache [Windows]`
		5682	`Modified to remove use of system utilities to perform the the file`
		5683	`transfer, after having problems the 'cp.exe' provided by JATS.`
		5684
		5685	`Minor changes:`
		5686	`* Added utility class to provide directory searching`
		5687	`To be used in JATS and JATS support tools`
		5688
		5689	`* tweaks to the C# toolset`
		5690	`Correct problem with filename that start with "n" as in .\not_nice.cs`
		5691
		5692	`Create resource files with Fully Qualified Names derived from the .resx`
		5693	`and .cs files.`
		5694
		5695	`Handle Strong Key Names and creates wrappers to provide do the right`
		5696	`thing.`
		5697
		5698	`* Microtec ColdFire compiler`
		5699	`Further attempts to get the compiler to place all of its temp files in a`
		5700	`local directory. The compiler uses a large number of EnVars to control`
		5701	`were it places temp files.`
		5702
		5703	`Underlying problem is random compiler failures on big builds. Suspected`
		5704	`interaction with other builds.`
		5705
		5706	`* Release utility command`
		5707	`Added a -tag=name option to allow the Auto Build Tools to create`
		5708	`multiple instances of a static view. The tag is used to provide a unique`
		5709	`component in the clearcase tag name.`

		5801	`the dependancy on JATS of various packaging processes.`
		5802
		5803	`* GenerateFiles`
		5804	`Added the options:`
		5805	`--UnknownPreq - Will force the recipe to be run every time`

		5810	`--AutoGenerate - Will not force the recipe to be run during the`

		5952
		5953	`LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI and LMOS_TP5600_EMU`
		5954	`These are LMOS based targets. The 'lmos' package must be used in order to`

		5980	`The WINCE targets actually built will be affected by GBE_BUILDFILTER.`
		5981
		5982	`* JATS makefile.pl`
		5983	`The package descriptor file, 'descpkg', will be packaged in all makefiles`

		5985
		5986	`There is now no need to explicitly package the 'descpkg' file, except in`

		5988
		5989	`Minor changes:`
		5990	`* Directive: PackageFile`
		5991	`Generate a warning if the source file name does not confirm to good naming`
		5992	`conventions. The filename must not start with a '-' and must not contain`
		5993	`an '='.`
		5994
		5995	`Normally the result of an error in the directive. ie: "-Subdir=etc", instead`

		6001
		6002	`This version will display the library search path with one item per line,`

		6008	`Major changes:`
		6009
		6010	`* JATS release command`
		6011	`Modified the configuration spec generated when a branching rule is`
		6012	`specified. The change will ensure that directories are not branched.`
		6013
		6014	`Rules are:`
		6015	`Modify a file: File will branch`
		6016	`Adding a file: Containing directory will not branch`
		6017	`File will be placed on a branch`
		6018	`Add a directory: Containing directory will not branch`
		6019	`New directory will branch`
		6020
		6021	`Minor changes:`
		6022	`* JATS release command`
		6023	`Added -noprefex option to allow the creation of a view directory without the`
		6024	`user name being prefixed to it. This is useful in creating an escrow view.`
		6025
		6026	`* JATS label command`
		6027	`Detect and report parent directories that are checkedout when a label`
		6028	`is applied. Previously these had gone unreported.`
		6029
		6030	`* JATS make`
		6031	`Undo previous change to preserve symbolic links while Packaging and`
		6032	`Installing files. A problem was encountered when a file from a package`
		6033	`was re-packaged.`
		6034
		6035	`* JATS escrow`
		6036	`Added a tool to generate information for creating an escrow drop.`
		6037	`Use jats escrow -help for details`
		6038
		6039	`* makefile.pl directive: MakeAnt`
		6040	`This directive will create parameters to specify the location of external java`
		6041	`packages that have been referenced via a LinkPkgArchive directive.`
		6042
		6043	`This allows the build.xml to contruct a CLASSPATH to access JAR files in`
		6044	`packages, without the overhead of copying the entire package into the`
		6045	`interface directory.`
		6046
		6047	`* build.pl directive: BuildPkgArchive`
		6048	`Modified the processing of 'jar' directories.`
		6049	`Directories of the form 'jar.<target>' will be transferred into the 'jar'`
		6050	`directory as seen by the package.`
		6051
		6052	`Intended use: Deployment of oraclient for Solaris 10`
		6053
		6054	`* JAVA 6`
		6055	`JATS now supports all versions of Java through the use of JAVA_HOME_X_Y`
		6056	`environment variables. Where X andY specify the version of JAVA.`
		6057
		6058	`The jats.bat and jats.sh example files only provide indication of 1.4, 1.5`
		6059	`and 1.6 support, but all versions are now supported.`
		6060
		6061	`The "jats vars -v" command will display all JAVA_HOME environment variables`
		6062
		6063	`* Jats command: vars`
		6064	`Extended to show a "*" for EnvVars that do not address a valid directory`
		6065	`These indicate potential problems.`
		6066
		6067	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6068	`Version: JATS_2.62.4 Released: 20-Mar-07`
		6069	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6070	`Major changes:`
		6071	`* JATS create_dpkg + packageing shared libraries (Unix)`
		6072	`When a shared library is created a simple symbolic link to the versioned`
		6073	`libarry is also created.`
		6074
		6075	`Previous versions of JATS would replace the symbolic link with a physical`
		6076	`copy of the file. The effect of this is that when the shared libaries is`
		6077	`'Installed', 'Packaged' and transferred into dpkg_archive there are two`
		6078	`files, instead of one file and one link to the file (in the same directory)`
		6079	`The Solaris shared libraries can be quite large, due to the debug`
		6080	`information contained within the file.`
		6081
		6082	`This version of JATS will preserve symbolic links when 'Installing',`
		6083	`'Packaging' and transferring to dpkg_archive.`
		6084
		6085	`The advantage of this will be significant reduction in disk space used`
		6086	`within the build environment and dpkg_archive.`
		6087
		6088	`* Building Perl Modules`
		6089	`Modified the process to prevent the module builder attempting to modify the`
		6090	`documentation on the build machine.`
		6091
		6092	`Integrated the 'jats clean' operation.`
		6093
		6094	`Minor changes:`
		6095	`* jats create_dpkg`
		6096	`Added an option to create a built.generic file`
		6097	`This is only used by the Automated Built Tools.`
		6098
		6099	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6100	`Version: JATS_2.62.3 Released: 28-Feb-07`
		6101	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6102	`Major changes:`
		6103	`* JATS JAVA build target`
		6104	`The default behaviour of the JAVA build target has changed such that the`
		6105	`default version of JAVA used will be 1.4.`
		6106
		6107	`Previous behaviour was to use whichever version was specified by the EnvVar`
		6108	`JAVA_HOME. This was not controlled, thus the build was not controlled.`
		6109	`Problems occur when using the new AutoBuildTool as it uses Java 1.5 and this`
		6110	`is then picked up as the default version.`
		6111
		6112	`If a version, other than 1.4, is required then specify it within the`
		6113	`build.pl file.`
		6114
		6115	`Minor changes:`
		6116	`* jats release`
		6117	`Ensure that the 'cleartool' command can be found in the users PATH`
		6118	`Issue an error if it cannot be found.`
		6119	`This error indicates bad DevEnv setup`
		6120
		6121	`Added facility to create a view based on a config_spec, instead of a label.`
		6122	`Such a view cannot be used to create a release. It is intended to simplify`
		6123	`the creation of simple static views. The name of view is, by default,`
		6124	`based on the name of the config spec. Use the -view=name option to change`
		6125	`the name of the view.`
		6126
		6127	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		6128	`Added new --Vars() to allow packaging of JATS plugin tools.`
		6129
		6130	`* MOS Toolset`
		6131	`When using MOS fast intermodule calls the optimizer will preload commonly`
		6132	`used memory addresses into a register BEFORE the GDP has been correctly set`
		6133	`up. Use the following option to suppress this optimization`
		6134
		6135	`Added: CompileOptions ('*', 'NoGlobalOptimization' );`
		6136
		6137
		6138	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6139	`Version: JATS_2.62.2 Released: 15-Feb-07`
		6140	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6141	`Major changes:`
		6142
		6143	`Minor changes:`
		6144	`* JATS environment`
		6145	`Ensure that the true path of the Perl executable is present in the PATH`
		6146	`environment variable. This allows build tool access to various perl utilities`
		6147	`that are located in the Perl bin directory.`
		6148
		6149	`Resolves issues in locating utilities such as pod2html`
		6150
		6151	`* Use of GENERIC platforms`
		6152	`Report an error if a GENERIC platform is mixed with any other platform`
		6153	`specifier. GENERIC is used for packages that build on all machines because`
		6154	`they do not use a compiler or linker. They simply contains files that need`
		6155	`to be packaged.`
		6156
		6157	`* Generated makefiles`
		6158	`Solaris and Linux: Ensure that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is exported if it is used.`
		6159
		6160	`* Generating MOS THX files`
		6161	`Added option --BinaryImage to the SharedLib directive used to create MOS THX`
		6162	`files. This option will create a binary image (.bin) instead of a .thx file.`
		6163	`This is being used in the creation of BR Applets.`
		6164
		6165	`SharedLib ( 'MOS', "xxx", @OBJS, "--Rel=xxx.rel", "--BinaryImage" );`
		6166
		6167	`* JATS release`
		6168	`Correct the operation of the -path option under Unix`
		6169
		6170	`* JATS extract`
		6171	`New JATS command. This is the same as 'jats release -extract'`
		6172
		6173	`* JATS Toolset`
		6174	`Added support for the WinCe PSION (WCEPSION_420)`
		6175	`This is a armv4i device using 4.20 of the WCE SDK`
		6176
		6177
		6178	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6179	`Version: JATS_2.62.1 Released: 18-Jan-07`
		6180	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6181	`Major changes:`
		6182
		6183	`Minor changes:`
		6184	`* jats label`
		6185	`Added a -vob=name option`
		6186	`This allwos the label utility to create, lock, unlock, rename and delete`
		6187	`labels without the user actually being located within the VOB. This option`
		6188	`cannot be used in conjunction with operations that place labels on files.`
		6189	`It can only be used for operations that manipulate the label.`
		6190
		6191	`Added a -user=name option`
		6192	`This extends the operation of the -mine operation to change ownership of the`
		6193	`label to the named user.`
		6194
		6195	`* jats release`
		6196	`Displays the path to the view and the build file in a user friendly manner`
		6197	`Under Windows it uses \, unless running under cygwin.`
		6198
		6199	`* JATS build.pl`
		6200	`BuildProduct supports the --Uses=xxxx construct on a per-target basis.`
		6201	`ie:`
		6202	`BuildProduct ('TP5', 'LMOS_TP5600_EMU', 'LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI,--Uses=TP5600_ARM9TDMI');`
		6203
		6204
		6205	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6206	`Version: JATS_2.62.0 Released: 22-Dec-06`
		6207	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6208	`Major changes:`
		6209	`* GenerateFiles and RunTest directives`
		6210	`These directives have been extended to allow a large number of makefile`
		6211	`values to be added to the command lines,without resorting to knowledge of`
		6212	`the makefile internals. ie:`
		6213	`--Var(BuildName)`
		6214	`will be expanded to (hen building MyPackage)`
		6215	`-BuildName=MyPackage`
		6216
		6217	`The complete list of Variables is provided in the JATS manual.`
		6218
		6219	`* GenerateFiles`
		6220	`Added a --Clean option to allow tools to be invoked in the 'clean' phase`
		6221	`This allows external scripts to cleanup.`
		6222
		6223	`* BuildPlatforms`
		6224	`Restored operation of the --Uses option`
		6225
		6226	`Minor changes:`
		6227	`* GCC Toolset`
		6228	`Exports path to compiler. Used by scripts to build packages`
		6229
		6230	`Internal changes:`
		6231	`* GenerateFiles`
		6232	`Maintains the arguments in an array for simpler processing.`
		6233
		6234	`--Shell is now processed by the 'make' shell rather then invoking an`
		6235	`external shell. It will be the same shell, just easier to setup.`
		6236
		6237
		6238	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6239	`Version: JATS_2.61.3 Released: 14-Dec-06`
		6240	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6241	`Major changes:`
		6242	`* Caching JATS`
		6243	`Added a mechanism whereby JATS can cache a copy of itself on the users local`
		6244	`drive. This is applicable to windows.`
		6245
		6246	`This mechanism will allow a user to address JATS via the soft-links in`
		6247	`dpkg_archive and pick up the current version of JATS without the penalty of`
		6248	`then using JATS across a slow(network) link.`
		6249
		6250	`The EnvVar GBE_CACHE_JATS controls the operation of this feature.`
		6251	`Set GBE_CACHE_JATS to one to enable the operation, but it will only be`
		6252	`effective if JATS is being run from GBE_DPKG in the first place.`
		6253
		6254	`Use: Build Machines and Windows Users`
		6255
		6256	`Minor changes:`
		6257	`* Build directive: BuildAlias with --Target option`
		6258	`Corrected a problem when the target name is a expanded platform name (ie:`
		6259	`TP5600) that prevent correct expansion.`
		6260
		6261	`* jats build`
		6262	`If the user has not configured a cache, then do not attempt to cache`
		6263	`packages. This will remove an annoying warning message for each package`
		6264	`processed by the build.`
		6265
		6266	`* jats build`
		6267	`Modified the error messages generated when JATS fails to create the`
		6268	`makefiles. The previous system would report failures while creating`
		6269	`makefiles and, at the end of the process, it would generate a large error`
		6270	`message to indicate the failure. This large message diverted the users`
		6271	`from reading the other error messages resulting in confusion.`
		6272
		6273	`* PackageFile, PackageLib, PackageProg and PackageHdr`
		6274	`Detect and report as an error use of the --Dir=<Path> option where the`
		6275	`Path is not specified.`
		6276
		6277	`Most instances of this error will be where the option has been mis-used in`
		6278	`conjunction with a package.pl file, or during transition from using a`

		6530
		6531	`Minor changes:`
		6532	`* WIN32 and WINCE toolsets`
		6533	`SharedLib operation. Added an option to allow the creation of a 'stub'`

		6574	`a directory known to all platforms being built for a common OS.`
		6575
		6576	`Currently this is only supported to target platforms based on`
		6577	`SOLARIS`
		6578	`WIN32`
		6579
		6580	`* Removal of support for badly formed packages`
		6581	`As of this release libraries that exist in the <packagename>/lib directory`
		6582	`will not be available to JATS. These libraries are in the incorrect`
		6583	`directory. They MUST be in a directory that indicates the intended purpose`
		6584	`of the library. A .so library cannot be used on all machines ( linux,`
		6585	`solaris-sparc, solaris-amd ... ).`
		6586
		6587	`* Build Platform target name expansion facility`
		6588	`The build targets of SOLARIS and LINUX are seen as expandable names. They`

		6598	`Added a -root=dirname to allow the user to place the created view at a given`
		6599	`location`
		6600
		6601	`Added GBE_VIEWBASE to provide a globally configured mechanism for`
		6602	`controlling the view location. Performs the same job as -root=xxxx`
		6603
		6604	`* Utility genrc`
		6605	`Added the company name to the copyright string`
		6606
		6607	`* Utility: jats_save_build`
		6608	`Added option: -new`
		6609	`This option forces the saved file only a new branch.`
		6610	`The option can be used to save a build.pl file onto a new project-specific`
		6611	`branch. Useful when branching an entire release.`
		6612
		6613	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6614	`Added options to allow project suffixes to be replaced.`
		6615	`Use: Convert a .syd project to a .bej project.`
		6616
		6617	`* Deprecated features: package.pl and tree.dir`
		6618	`These two build features are being deprecated. They are not suitable for`
		6619	`migration to other SOLARIS based platforms.`
		6620
		6621	`The Package directives provide sufficient power to replace the package.pl`
		6622	`features - in a uniform manner.`
		6623
		6624
		6625	`Internal Changes:`
		6626	`* Major rework of the JATS BuildPlatform, BuildAlias an BuildProducts`
		6627	`directives, together with the mechanism used to describe the platform builds.`
		6628
		6629	`Introduced a CFG/<PLATFORM>.CFG file to provide:`
		6630	`1) Platform information available at build time`
		6631	`2) Dynamic platform names`
		6632
		6633	`* Major rework of the 'SOLARIS' platform`
		6634	`The SOLARIS platform will generate one or more targets, depending on the`
		6635	`machine on which the platform is invoked.`
		6636
		6637	`Consolidated a number of SOLARIS specific kludges and converted them into`
		6638	`configurable items. These kludges are really on applicable to the`
		6639	`SOLARIS8_SPARC32 platform. New SOLARIS builds will be well formed.`
		6640
		6641	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6642	`Formalized a number of kludges in operation of the SOLARIS8 under sparc32`
		6643	`platform. These are configured early in the build process and are no longer`
		6644	`needed.`
		6645
		6646	`A side effect of this work is that files from external packages may be`
		6647	`located in 'SOLARIS', 'SOLARIS_sparc' or 'sparc' directories. The change`
		6648	`should be transparent as the consumer tools should be able to handle`
		6649	`files from all of these.`

		6662	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6663	`Major changes:`
		6664	`* Jats wrapper: Specify version of JATS to be used`
		6665	`Added a -version=xxxx option to force JATS to use a specific version of`
		6666	`JATS. The same operation can be achieved by setting GBE_JATS_VERSION.`
		6667
		6668	`The required version MUST be found in one of the known archives.`
		6669
		6670	`JATS will attempt to cache the version of JATS to assist in speeding up`
		6671	`the operations.`
		6672
		6673	`The version option MUST be the first option.`
		6674
		6675	`The version option MUST be followed by a '--' option.`
		6676	`This prevents JATS parsing other options and recursion issues.`
		6677
		6678	`Example: jats -version=2.54.3.cr -- build`
		6679
		6680	`* Migrated the "jats install" functionality out of the jats wrapper script`
		6681	`and into the create_dpkg utility. This is transparent to the user.`

		6684	`Added a '-quiet' option to allow use within scripts`
		6685	`Extended the built-in help`

		6695
		6696	`Minor changes:`
		6697	`* JATS wrapper script`
		6698	`Added a -ABT=xxx option to allow the Auto Build Tool to be invoked from`
		6699	`the command line.`
		6700
		6701	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6702	`Modified so that it will display changes. These will then be present in the`
		6703	`ABT log so that a developer can see which packages have been rippled.`
		6704
		6705	`Internal Changes:`
		6706	`* Common Error Reporting`
		6707	`Will use environment variables to control DEBUG and VERBOSE levels`
		6708	`for individual users. A module reporting with a name of XXXX will use EnvVars`
		6709	`of GBE_XXXX_VERBOSE and GBE_XXXX_DEBUG to control the debug and VERBOSE`
		6710	`level.`
		6711
		6712	`Force flushing after a "Question" is asked to ensure that the prompt is`
		6713	`displayed.`

		6757	`Added GBE_ABT. This is used by the Auto Build Tool to indicate that an`
		6758	`auto build is in progress. It may be used by various tools to modify their`
		6759	`behaviour.`
		6760
		6761	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6762	`Version: JATS_2.54.0 Released: 22-Jun-06`
		6763	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6764	`Major changes:`
		6765	`* Removal of non-core deployment functionality from JATS.`
		6766	`Deployment package will be affected.`
		6767
		6768	`The build.pl file of deployment package will need to import deployment`
		6769	`support with a BuildPkgArchive directive. ie:`
		6770
		6771	`BuildPkgArchive ( 'deployfiles', '1.0.0.cr' );`
		6772
		6773	`This version of deployfiles contains the same functionality as that provided`
		6774	`by the previous version of JATS. Version 2 of this package will be the start`
		6775	`of a deployment system that will provide support for building InstallShield`
		6776	`packages.`
		6777
		6778	`* Deployment support utilities must be run under JATS`
		6779	`The environment required for the deployment support utilities is complex`
		6780	`and is provided by the JATS wrapper script.`
		6781
		6782	`This is a change in usage. Instead of running the program 'updatenodespec'`
		6783	`the user will need to run 'jats updatenodespec'`
		6784
		6785	`Minor changes:`
		6786	`* SubDir directive`
		6787	`Added a sanity test to detect the case when a 'SubDir' directive specifies`
		6788	`a directory from two different makefiles.`
		6789
		6790	`* Tools: Dependancy generator mkdepend`
		6791	`If an include file was referenced by a symbolic name, then the generated`
		6792	`dependancy information would be wrong for all but the first occurrence`
		6793	`of the file usage.`
		6794
		6795	`* New utility: jats_manifest`
		6796	`Used by the build system to generate and validate source files.`
		6797	`Beta Release: Windows only at the moment`
		6798
		6799	`* Unit tests under SOLARIS_sparc`
		6800	`The LD_LIBRARY_PATH has been modified to correctly pick up libraries`
		6801	`generated within the build and have been installed locally.`
		6802
		6803	`* Default behaviour of JATS the wrapper script`
		6804	`This has been changed. Previous unknown commands were passed to make.`
		6805	`In this release unknown comamnds will be treated a 'etool' commands and`
		6806	`will execute a JATS extended command.`
		6807
		6808
		6809	`Internal Changes:`
		6810	`* Code refactor`
		6811	`Created JatsEnv to encapsulate functionality that was multiply defined.`
		6812
		6813	`* Deployment utilities`
		6814	`The Perl module Ignorelist.pm and the .ccignore file`
		6815	`Changed the mechanism by which this module locates a .ccignore file.`
		6816	`The .ccignore file has been moved to the same directory as the module and`
		6817	`the module can locate the file.`
		6818
		6819	`Previously the module required an environment variable in order to locate`
		6820	`the file, which was in a fixed location anyway.`
		6821
		6822	`* JATS core`
		6823	`Removed the use of the environment variable PERLINC.`
		6824
		6825	`Better parsing of descpkg files.`
		6826
		6827	`* JATS core debugging: JatsError.pm`
		6828	`Allow control over the debug and verbose messages of specific programs`
		6829	`through the use of environment variables.`
		6830
		6831	`A program reporting errors as "name" can be controlled via environment`
		6832	`variables GBE_name_VERBOSE and GBE_name_DEBUG.`
		6833
		6834	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6835	`Modified the subdirectories transferred with this directive to include:`
		6836	`deployfiles - as used by the deployment system`
		6837	`tools/scripts - as used by perl based extensions`
		6838
		6839	`* Make environment`
		6840	`Extended the PERL5LIB path seen by perl programs executed under make to`
		6841	`include 'tools/script' directories that contain Perl Modules.`
		6842
		6843
		6844	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6845	`Version: JATS_2.53.2 Released: 13-Jun-06`
		6846	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6847	`Major changes:`
		6848	`* Deployment. GetMassInstId.rul (From George Christidis)`
		6849	`Added support for SILENT_MODE`
		6850
		6851
		6852	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6853	`Version: JATS_2.53.1 Released: Not release`
		6854	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6855
		6856	`Not Released.`
		6857	`This label waas used as a place keeper. This version was not used as a basis`
		6858	`for JATS_2.53.2. Its much closer to JATS_2.54.0.`
		6859
		6860
		6861	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6862	`Version: JATS_2.53.0 Released: 11-Apr-06`
		6863	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6864	`Major changes:`
		6865	`* Deployment Scripts: Release Manager Database Access`
		6866	`The mechanism for communicating with the Release Manager Database has been`
		6867	`radically replaced.`
		6868
		6869	`A test tool has been added to prove connectivity to Release Manager.`
		6870	`Usage:`
		6871	`jats etool test_rmconnection`
		6872
		6873	`The pervious scripts used DBI::ODBC to communicate with the Oracle`
		6874	`Database that contains Release Manager. There were a number of problems with`
		6875	`this solution:`
		6876	`- Required the installation of two Perl Modules`
		6877	`- Required the installation of an Oracle client`
		6878	`- Required the use of an ODBC bridge machine when used on Solaris`
		6879	`- Support for Perl within Oracle appears to be on the decline`
		6880
		6881	`The solutions uses a Java application and Java's jdbc. The oracle:thin`
		6882	`client is used as this does not require any installation or configuration in`
		6883	`order to work.`
		6884
		6885	`JATS overrides Perl's DBI package with a package of the same name, but`
		6886	`reduced functionality.`
		6887
		6888
		6889	`Minor changes:`
		6890	`* makefile.pl directive: SetValue`
		6891	`Added a '--' option to disable and enable parsing of options.`
		6892	`This allows a value with leading '--' to be set.`
		6893
		6894	`* makefile.pl directive: SetList`
		6895	`Added this directive to formalise the creation and processing of lists`
		6896	`within the makefiles.`
		6897	`Options:`
		6898	`--NoWarn Disable name clash warnings`
		6899	`--Project=xxxx[,xxxx]+ Add to list in selected projects`
		6900	`--Unique Add only if not already present`
		6901	`--Clear Clear list, before adding new items`
		6902	`--Append Append items to list (default)`
		6903	`-- Disable/Enable option parsing`
		6904	`Useage:`
		6905
		6906	`SetList ('*', 'LibList', 'lib1', 'lib2', '--Project=syd');`
		6907	`SharedLib ('*', 'MyDLL', @OBJS, @LibList );`
		6908
		6909	`* Makefile.pl directive: RunTest`
		6910	`Corrected the option of the --CopyIn=file option where the specified file`
		6911	`is not in the current directory.`
		6912
		6913	`* Jats Command: ant'`
		6914	`This command has been extended to make use of the -buildfile=xxxx option`
		6915	`to allow multiple buildfiles to be differentiated.`
		6916
		6917	`eg: jats -buildfile=MyPackage ant`
		6918
		6919	`* TOOLSET: DAFBR Compiler support`
		6920	`Modified the toolset to support an optimisation feature of the next`
		6921	`generation of the daf_br_compiler. These will be enabled if the major version`
		6922	`of the package containing the compiler is greater the "1". ie: 2.0.0.cr`
		6923
		6924	`* Interface helper files: set_XXXX.bat/.sh`
		6925	`Added provision to process user command arguments.`
		6926	`Thus`
		6927
		6928	`set_WIN32.bat prog`
		6929
		6930	`will set the WIN32 environment and run the command: prog`
		6931
		6932
		6933	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6934	`Version: JATS_2.52.2 Released: 30-Mar-06`
		6935	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6936	`Major changes:`
		6937
		6938	`Minor changes:`
		6939	`* Addressed issue with BUILDNAME, an internal variable.`
		6940	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user build.pl's they need to be`
		6941	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a project`
		6942	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		6943	`$(BUILDNAME) contains two or three space seperated fields - always`
		6944
		6945	`* m16c Toolset - MCRFirmware`
		6946	`Force the generation of .thx and payload files when the .bin files are`
		6947	`created. Previously this only occured in the packaging phase.`
		6948
		6949	`Internal changes:`
		6950	`* JATS toolsets`
		6951	`Added a feature to allow a toolset to flag additional files that get created`
		6952	`as a part of a "Prog". This allows a "Prog" definition to generate a`
		6953	`number of files, some which may be packaged.`
		6954
		6955	`Previously such files where only generated during the packaging phase. Now`
		6956	`they will be generated during the make_prog phase - with the other programs.`
		6957
		6958	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6959	`Version: JATS_2.52.1 Released: 29-Mar-06`
		6960	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6961	`Major changes:`
		6962	`* Jats command: etool`
		6963	`Extended to allow execution of deployment tools. This allows the deployment`
		6964	`tools to use the JATS core perl modules.`
		6965
		6966	`* Address issues with the use of BUILDVER and ScmBuildVer`
		6967	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user makefile.pl's they need to be`
		6968	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a projectt`
		6969	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		6970	`$(BUILDVERSION) contains the project extension - always`
		6971	`$ScmBuildVersion does not contain a project extension - always`
		6972
		6973	`Minor changes:`
		6974
		6975
		6976	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6977	`Version: JATS_2.52.0 Released: 27-Mar-06`
		6978	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6979	`Major changes:`
		6980	`* JATS environment variables`
		6981	`Added GBE_DPKG_STORE`
		6982	`Optionally addresses a dpkg_archive store. This is intended to allow`
		6983	`read only access to a remote repository. The GBE_DPKG_STORE will be`
		6984	`searched after GBE_DPKG. It will be searched last. JATS, be default,`
		6985	`will not publish packages in this repository.`
		6986
		6987	`Uses: Seed repository for a complete build`
		6988	`Remote repository`
		6989
		6990	`Added GBE_DPLY`
		6991	`Optionally addresses a Deployment Archive. This is only used in the`
		6992	`placement of deployment packages. This value may be project specific.`
		6993
		6994	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		6995	`Changes the mechanism used to link against the compiler RTL.`
		6996	`Previously the RTL was included multiple times in the link order. This`
		6997	`created problem with daf_dsi as the function 'time()' was being satisfied by`
		6998	`the RTL before being satisfied by the user libraries.`
		6999
		7000	`The compiler RTL is now treated as a library of last resort. It will be`
		7001	`processed once and it will be processed last.`
		7002
		7003
		7004	`Minor changes:`
		7005	`* JATS utility: build`
		7006	`* JATS utility: cache_dpkg`
		7007	`Extended the package search algorithm to locate a package within`
		7008	`GBE_DPKG_STORE. This archive will be searched last.`
		7009
		7010	`* JATS utility: gen_cots`
		7011	`Ensure label is not locked`
		7012	`Add option to allow user to specify source directory other than a package`
		7013	`that already exists in dpkg_archive.`
		7014
		7015	`* JATS directive: PackageFile`
		7016	`Now supports --Prod and --Debug options to limit the packaging process`
		7017	`to a specific type of build.`
		7018
		7019	`* JATS directive: GenerateFiles and RunTests`
		7020	`Added a --PackageInfo() replacement tag to allow package version information`
		7021	`to be extracted and passed to generator programs.`
		7022	`ie: --PackageInfo(sysbasetypes,syd,--fullversion)`
		7023
		7024	`Extended the --PackageBase() replacement tag to work with packages such as`
		7025	`sysbasetypes, where there is a .cr and a .syd type.`
		7026	`ie: --PackageBase(sysbasetypes,syd)`
		7027
		7028	`* JATS utility: release`
		7029	`Under windows, ensure that the directory C:\Clearcase exists. There have`
		7030	`been installations of Clearcase where this is directory does not exist.`
		7031
		7032	`* JATS utility: label`
		7033	`Added option: "-comment=Text" to allow a comment to be added to a label,`
		7034	`when it is being created.`
		7035
		7036	`Internal Changes`
		7037	`* JATS utility: create_dpkg`
		7038	`Refactored code to use JATS DescPkg class.`
		7039
		7040	`Added options to allow packaging to the various archives. This is of no use`
		7041	`to the normal developer, but will be used within the complete build system.`
		7042
		7043	`* Factored out the parsing of the BuildName directive`
		7044	`This process was being done in 3 locations - and there were getting`
		7045	`different results.`
		7046
		7047	`* ToolsetRequire directive`
		7048	`This has been extended to allow JATS to locate Toolset extensions within`
		7049	`packages. They should be placed within the tool/scripts directory`
		7050
		7051	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7052	`Version: JATS_2.51.0 Released: 15-Mar-06`
		7053	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7054	`Major changes:`
		7055
		7056	`* MCR toolset`

		7058
		7059	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7060	`Version: JATS_2.50.0 Released: 15-Feb-06`
		7061	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7062	`Major changes:`
		7063	`* WIN32 utilities`
		7064	`Replaced a number of the Windows utilities ( cp, rm, mv ...)`
		7065	`with versions from the GNUWin32 project.`
		7066
		7067	`The 'cp' previously used could not recursively copy large directories`
		7068	`under Windows Server 2003, when both the source and destination are on the`
		7069	`same drive. ( dpkg_cache of ace ).`
		7070
		7071	`Minor changes:`
		7072	`* BuildVersion`
		7073	`The definition of VERSION_BUILD within the generated version-defs.h file`
		7074	`will have leading zeros removed, thus allowing it to be used within a 'C'`
		7075	`program without the number being interpreted as an octal constant.`
		7076
		7077	`The string form (VERSION_BUILD_STR) will retain the zeros.`
		7078
		7079	`* Unix Builds`
		7080	`Corrected several issues encountered when specifying the name of a static`
		7081	`library or a shared library.`
		7082
		7083	`JATS will prepend 'lib' to the user specified library name. Problems occurred`
		7084	`when the user specified a library name that started with 'lib'. Now, on Unix`
		7085	`systems, JATS will only prepend 'lib' if the library name does not already`
		7086	`start with 'lib'.`
		7087
		7088	`* BuildPkgArchive`
		7089	`Since 2.45.0 JATS will only transfer files for the BuildPkgArchive, if`
		7090	`they have not already been transferred. Added a test for the source`
		7091	`package being updated and then forceing the copy to be repeated.`
		7092
		7093	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7094	`Version: JATS_2.49.0 Released: 10-Feb-06`
		7095	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7096	`Major changes:`
		7097	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		7098	`Corrected a problem with the dependencies between a .REL file and the target`
		7099	`THX file. If the .REL files was modified the output THX file did not get`
		7100	`regenerated. This was only a problem in cases where the .REL file was`
		7101	`being manually maintained.`
		7102
		7103
		7104	`Minor changes:`
		7105	`* MakeAnt directive`
		7106	`Introduced a check to ensure that this directive is only used with a toolset`
		7107	`that can handle an 'ant' build file. Currently only the JAVA toolset`
		7108	`supports ANT builds.`
		7109
		7110	`* BuildPkgArchive directive`
		7111	`Correct problem in the caching of BuildPkgArchive packages in the case where`
		7112	`there is no GBE_DPKG_LOCAL on the machine.`
		7113
		7114	`* Label utility`
		7115	`Added a 'files=filename,filename' option to allow only specified`
		7116	`files to be labeled.`
		7117
		7118	`* Build. Parsing descpkg files`
		7119	`Corrected problem in which Java Manifest files were not parsed correctly`
		7120	`on Solaris.`
		7121
		7122	`* Generated makefiles`
		7123	`Fix a bug with the CompilerOptions that allowed a '0' definition to be set to`
		7124	`nothing.`
		7125
		7126	`* MOS Toolset`
		7127	`Added 'CompileOptions' of CcSupervisor.`
		7128	`This will set a MOS internal definition suitable for building specialised`
		7129	`modules.`
		7130
		7131	`* Utility: gen_cots`
		7132	`This utility will create a JATS buildable package froma dpkg_archive entry`
		7133	`and then check it in under clearcase.`
		7134
		7135	`JATS etool gen_cots -man will provide only help.`
		7136
		7137	`* Utilty cache_dpkg`
		7138	`Detect and repair incomplete copy operations.`
		7139

		7142	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7143	`Major changes:`
		7144	`None`
		7145
		7146	`Minor changes:`
		7147	`* DEVI addressed`
		7148	`DEVI-022055 JATS builds DLLs with wrong copyright symbol in version resource`
5710	dpurdie	7149	`DEVI-022054 JATS puts "VIX Group test" in Product Name of Windows resource`
227	dpurdie	7150
		7151	`* Utility: release (cbuild)`
		7152	`Added an option to create a view configured to work with a branching`
		7153	`rule. A single branch can be named with the -branch option. eg:`
		7154
		7155	`jats release -extract 'label' -branch SITS_LEGACY_BRANCH`
		7156
		7157	`will create a view based on the named label, but suitable for creating`
		7158	`a patch for Sydney Legacy work.`
		7159
		7160	`* RunTest directive`
		7161	`The 'PATH' that the test uses is extended to allow access to programs that have`
		7162	`been installed with a InstallProg directive. This allows a test script to`
		7163	`test a program that is generated elsewhere within the package.`
		7164
		7165	`* PackageFile, Option --DirTree`
		7166	`Support for filenames that contain a "$" or a ' ' within the`
		7167	`--DirTree option. Implemented to allow entire JAVA class trees to be`
		7168	`packaged under JATS`
		7169
		7170	`Note: In general the use of a $ and space within a filename is not`
		7171	`supported within JATS.`
		7172
		7173	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7174	`Added an eprog option. The allows any program to be run within the`
		7175	`sanitized environment provided by JATS.`
		7176
		7177	`The specified program may be in the current directory or the user's`
		7178	`PATH. If the program is a perl script then it will be run with the`
		7179	`JATS perl interpreter, otherwise it will be processed by the system.`
		7180
		7181	`Eg: jats eprog myscript arg1 arg2`
		7182	`Eg: jats ant`
		7183
		7184	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7185	`Added an 'ant' command. ( "jats ant" )`
		7186
5710	dpurdie	7187	`This will run an VIX ANT build by scanning the current directory for a file`
227	dpurdie	7188	`called <ProjectName>depends.xml and then looking the a file called`
		7189	`<ProjectName>.xml. Jats will then create 'auto.xml' based on the`
		7190	`<ProjectName>depends.xml file and use ant to invoke the`
		7191	`<ProjectName>.xml file.`
		7192
5710	dpurdie	7193	`If the VIX build files cannot be found then ant is simply run and it will`
227	dpurdie	7194	`expect a build.pl file.`
		7195
		7196	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7197	`Force the environment variable PERL5INC to be unset.`
		7198
		7199	`* Jats utility: create_dpkg`
		7200	`Simplify handling of ANT based projects. Look for the package within`
		7201	`the build/pkg subdirectory, in the JANTS style.`
		7202
		7203	`* Utility: gen_winrc (DEVI-022054)`
		7204	`Added a "'-product=text'" option to allow the product name to be specified.`
		7205
		7206	`* Build files`
		7207	`Handle the java generated descpkg files. These are a Manifest format with`
5710	dpurdie	7208	`VIX extensions.`

		7211	`Version: JATS_2.47.0 Released: 20-Dec-05`
		7212	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7213	`Major changes:`
		7214	`* BuildVersion directive in build.pl`
		7215	`Correct a problem in the generation of version.c`
		7216	`The function GetModuleInfo() would return a string with a trailing`
		7217	`space when the 'array' mode was selected.`
		7218
		7219	`This may cause module validation to fail.`
		7220
		7221	`Minor changes:`
		7222	`* None`
		7223
		7224	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7225	`Version: JATS_2.46.0 Released: 08-Dec-05`
		7226	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7227	`Major changes:`
		7228	`* BuildProduct and BuildPlatforms directives`
		7229	`Added option --Uses=NAME`
		7230	`ie:`
		7231	`BuildProduct ( 'OBFTP,--Uses=TP5', 'MOSCF' );`
		7232
		7233	`This will create a OBFTP_MOSCF platform that will 'use' TP5`
		7234	`headers and libraries if none are specifically provided for the`
		7235	`OBFTP. It is the users responsibily to ensure that the two build`
		7236	`environments are compatible.`
		7237
		7238
		7239	`Minor changes:`
		7240	`* BuildName option`
		7241	`Modifications to allow the creation of COTS packages with buildnames`
5710	dpurdie	7242	`that do not confirm to the VIX naming scheme (--RelaxedVersion).`
227	dpurdie	7243
		7244	`* jats.bat`
		7245	`Ensure that GBE_BIN is not defined`
		7246	`It will be set by the jats.pl to a fully qualified path.`
		7247
		7248	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7249	`Version: JATS_2.45.0 Released: 29-Nov-05`
		7250	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7251	`Major changes:`
		7252	`* BuildPkgArchive directive`
		7253	`The operation of the BuildPkgArchive directive has been modified`
		7254	`so that a package will only be installed once. This significantly`
		7255	`speeds up multiple 'build' operations.`
		7256
		7257	`If the package is being extracted from the 'local archive', then`
		7258	`this mechanism is suppressed as packages in the local archive are`
		7259	`considered as under development and are subject to change.`
		7260
		7261	`If package cache is being refreshed, then the package will be`
		7262	`installed a second time. Thus it is possible to force the package to`
		7263	`be transferred into the 'interface' directory.`
		7264
		7265	`A BuildTags directory is used to track packages that have been`
		7266	`transferred.`
		7267
		7268	`* Internal changes to factor common code into a group of packages.`
		7269	`See notes below.`
		7270
		7271	`* WIN32 toolset`
		7272	`Allow the Microsoft preprocessor directive #import to operate`
		7273	`correctly.`
		7274
		7275	`Export the complete library search path into the build environment`
		7276	`for all Microsoft command, not just the linker and library commands.`
		7277
		7278	`* BuildVersion`
		7279	`Modifications to allow the generation of version files for C#`
		7280	`The mechanism has been extended to allow version information for`
		7281	`other langauges as needed.`
		7282
		7283
		7284	`Minor changes:`
		7285	`* Utility: gen_winrc.pl`
		7286	`Will extracted build number from the patch number, if present.`
		7287	`This information will be available to be placed into the generation`
		7288	`version strings.`
		7289
		7290	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		7291	`Fixed a problem detecting programs that were not in the local`
		7292	`package or an imported package.`
		7293
		7294	`* Toolsets: MOS_MRI`
		7295	`Generate an error if required tools are not found.`
		7296	`Previously this condition would generate a warning.`
		7297
		7298	`* BuildPkgArchive and LinkPkgArchive directives`
		7299	`Ensure that packages are only included once. The previous check`
		7300	`was half-hearted and could allow multiple packages of the same`
		7301	`version to be included. This could result in badly formed`
		7302	`makefiles and strange error messages.`
		7303
		7304	`Internal Changes`
		7305	`* Started to factor out internal packages and place them into a common`
		7306	`directory. This will allow common error handling thoughout the suite`
		7307	`of utilities.`
		7308
		7309	`Modified all utilities to utilize the common error reporting`
		7310	`functions.`
		7311
		7312	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7313	`Version: JATS_2.44.0 Released: 18-Nov-05`
		7314	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7315	`Major changes:`
		7316	`* Generated makefiles`
		7317	`Modified the windows shell to remove the use of the EXTENDED_LINE`
		7318	`cache. This did not work. Modified the extend.lst file to ensure`
		7319	`that sed did not process its arguments.`
		7320
		7321	`This has been done to address a problem seen within test scripts`
		7322	`within unit tests that use wildcard expansion. The windows shell was`
		7323	`incorrectly processing:`
		7324	`sed '-es~.*WIN32~~'`
		7325	`The '.*' construct was being seen as a wildcard and the shell was`
		7326	`then putting the argument into a command file - it was totally`
		7327	`confused.`
		7328
		7329	`NOTE: Attempted to remove use of EXTENDED_LINE, but this caused a`
		7330	`breakage with the DOS based gcc compiler( ie:H8S and others).`
		7331	`The construct`
		7332	`-D__SOURCE__=\"name\"`
		7333	`was corrupted somewhere. If the command is put in a command file,`
		7334	`then it works.`
		7335
		7336	`* MakeAnt directive`
		7337	`Added option: --GeneratedFile=PathOfFile`
		7338
		7339	`This option has the following effects`
		7340	`1) Marks the file a source file. It is then known to JATS and`
		7341	`can be used installed and manipulated.`
		7342
		7343	`2) Schedules the processing of the ANT build to be done`
		7344	`early - in the generated files phase.`
		7345
		7346	`Intended use. The creation of packages with a JNI. The Java`
		7347	`component needs to generate a header file early.`
		7348
		7349
		7350	`Minor changes:`
		7351	`* JATS post-installation script`
		7352	`Flag deployment tools and libraries as executable.`
		7353
		7354	`* Detection of extension type is case insensitive for non-unix`
		7355	`systems. Thus .h and .H files will considered header files in`
		7356	`windows.`
		7357
		7358	`* Build.pl rewrite tool`
		7359	`Handle all variants of BuildName`
		7360
		7361	`* Jats wrapper script`
		7362	`Generate an error if the JATS configuration variables are not usable`
		7363	`1) Contain spaces`
		7364	`2) Start with a // - Remote drives must be mapped`
		7365
		7366	`* Toolset`
		7367	`Added a 'LINUX' platform.`
		7368
		7369	`* JAVA toolset`
		7370	`Ensure the that build file passed via MakeAnt contains the following`
		7371	`directive:`
		7372
		7373	`includeAntRuntime="off"'`
		7374
		7375	`This MUST be used to ensure that ANT's classpath is not passed to`
		7376	`the java compiler thus ensuring that the compiler does not use ANT's`
		7377	`version of any JAR files that have not been specified by the user.`
		7378
		7379	`* GCC Toolset`
		7380	`Use -Map name to create map files as needed for GCC under Debian`
		7381
		7382	`* Makefile generation`
		7383	`When packages are used by name to resolve package location JATS`
		7384	`has been modified to use the package name specified by the user.`
		7385	`Previously JATS would use the package name found within the`
		7386	`descpkg file. In cases where the descpkg file was badly formed the`
		7387	`package could not be used.`
		7388
		7389	`* Unit Tests`
		7390	`The following environment variables are set:`
		7391
		7392	`GBE_TYPE - The type of build. Debug or production. This`
		7393	`will be set to either a 'P' or 'D'`
		7394
		7395	`GBE_HOST - The host machine we are running on.`
		7396	`This will be set to 'WIN' or Unix'`
		7397
		7398	`These variable should assist in the production of test scripts.`
		7399
		7400	`* New makefile.pl directive: SetValue`
		7401
		7402
		7403	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7404	`Version: JATS_2.43.0 Released: 01-Nov-05`
		7405	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7406	`Major changes:`
		7407	`* New Platform : "MCR" using the Mitsubishi m16c compiler.`
		7408
		7409	`Special features of this toolset.`
		7410	`1) A .THX source file will be converted to an obtect file`
		7411	`This allows processing of fonts within a THX file to be`
		7412	`incorporated within the target image.`
		7413
		7414	`2) Prog directive extensions:`
		7415	`--Set=Name=Value`
		7416	`The 'Name' is set to 'Value' at link time.`
		7417	`This allows the location of program segments to be set`
		7418
		7419	`--Ref=name`
		7420	`The name of a Release file. If provided, it will be used`
		7421	`to provide information that will be placed within the`
		7422	`THX header. The version number will be ignored. It`
		7423	`will be taken from the build version number.`
		7424
		7425	`Minor changes:`
		7426	`* MOS Toolset`
		7427	`Create the VisionClick files when the THX file is created.`
		7428	`Previously the files were created when the THX was installed or`
		7429	`packaged.`
		7430
		7431	`* Src directive`
		7432	`No generates a warning if no source files are located within the`
		7433	`directive. This is normally the result of a missing platform`
		7434	`specifier.`
		7435
		7436	`* WIN32 runtime support`
		7437	`Added the following 'Unix' style utilities to assist in testing.`
		7438	`1) od - dump files in octal and other formats`
		7439	`2) cmp - compare two files byte by byte`
		7440
		7441	`Internal:`
		7442	`Added an extension to allow the target toolset to handle the "Prog"`
		7443	`dependancy generation if required. This allow complex program`
		7444	`generation mechanisms to be handled by the toolset.`
		7445
		7446	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7447	`Version: JATS_2.42.0 Released: 19-Oct-05`
		7448	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7449	`Major changes:`
		7450	`* BuildAlias directive`
		7451	`Added options.`
		7452	`--Define - Does not create implicit platforms`
		7453	`--Target - Redeclares the alais as the list of all`
		7454	`platforms that are based on a given target or`
		7455	`targets.`
		7456	`Eg:`
		7457	`BuildAlias ( 'LMOS,--Target', 'LMOS_WIN32', 'LMOS_linux_armv4' );`
		7458	`BuildProduct ( 'GAK', 'LMOS', 'MOS68K', 'MOSCF' );`
		7459	`BuildProduct ( 'PCP', 'LMOS', 'MOS68K' );`
		7460
		7461	`Will export an alias of LMOS that can be used within makefile.pl's`
		7462	`that will be the list of all platforms that have a target of`
		7463	`'LMOS_WIN32' or 'LMOS_linux_armv4'.`
		7464
		7465	`Note the dual use of LMOS within the example. This is intentional.`
		7466	`The LMOS alias is used within the BuildProduct to simplify the`
		7467	`specification of all the LMOS targets.`
		7468
		7469
		7470	`Minor changes:`
		7471	`* Label utility`
		7472	`Will generate a warning message if it labels more than one`
		7473	`build.pl file`
		7474
		7475	`* Package directives. PackageFile.`
		7476	`Corrected a problem with wildcard expansion in which a --FilterIn`
		7477	`needed to be specified in order for the --FilterOut to operate.`
		7478	`Now all files in the tree are considered 'in' unless modified by the`
		7479	`--FilterIn option.`
		7480
		7481	`* jats release (cbuilder) utility`
		7482	`Correct use of the -prodOnly and -debugOnly flags.`
		7483	`The full name was not accepted; -debug and -prod was.`
		7484
		7485	`* Location of descpkg file`
		7486	`All makefile.pl's now know where the package descpkg file was`
		7487	`created. This simplifies the process og packaging this file as it`
		7488	`can be done within any makefile.pl.`
		7489
		7490	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7491	`Version: JATS_2.41.0 Released: 27-Sep-05`
		7492	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7493	`Major changes:`
		7494	`* RunTest directive`
		7495	`Extended the options and operation of RunTest`
		7496	`Additional options`
		7497	`--CopyIn=file`
		7498	`This will copy the specified file into the BIN directory before`
		7499	`the test is run. The file will be marked as executable. This`
		7500	`allows scripts and configuration files to be transferred into`
		7501	`the test area.`
		7502
		7503	`Additional operations`
		7504	`The arguments passed to the script/program allow a number of`
		7505	`transformations, similar to GenerateFiles. Transforms`
		7506	`--File(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a known file`
		7507	`--Local(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a file that has been Installed`
		7508	`--PackageBase(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a Package`
		7509	`Allows flags:`
		7510	`--dir - directory part of the pathname`
		7511	`--file - file part of the pathname`
		7512	`--abspath - as an absolute path`
		7513	`--absdrive - as an absolute path with drive letter (Windows)`
		7514
		7515	`Files and directories are prerequisites of the test. Their`
		7516	`existence is tested.`
		7517
		7518	`* Packaging Directives`
		7519	`Added a --Derived option to support the packaging of derived targets`
		7520	`such as LMOS.`
		7521
		7522	`PackageHdr ('*', 'file1.h', '--Derived=LMOS');`
		7523
		7524	`Will place file1.h into .../include/LMOS_WIN32`
		7525
		7526	`PackageHdr ('*', 'file1.h', '--Derived=LMOS,sys');`
		7527
		7528	`Will place file1.h into .../include/LMOS_WIN32/sys`
		7529
		7530	`* JAVA 1.4 and 1.5`
		7531	`Added support to the JATS JAVA platform to allow the user to specify`
		7532	`the version of Java to be used to build a package.`
		7533
		7534	`BuildPlatforms ( 'JAVA,--Version=1.5' );`
		7535
		7536	`The default will use the default machine version of JAVA.`
		7537	`This may not be sutable for all packages.`
		7538
		7539	`Non-default versions of JAVA require that an environment variable be`
		7540	`set to the root of the JDK directory. These are:`
		7541
		7542	`JAVA_HOME_1_4`
		7543	`JAVA_HOME_1_5`
		7544
		7545	`Minor changes:`
		7546	`* Script directive`
		7547	`Scripts may be copied into the BIN directory for use by a test.`
		7548	`These scripts are now always marked as executable.`
		7549
		7550	`* JATS environment`
		7551	`Ensure that all programs run under JATS in Windows have an uppercase`
		7552	`COMSPEC envvar. Windows appears to define a mixed case one. Fixed in`
		7553	`the JATS wrapper script.`
		7554
		7555	`* Label utility`
		7556	`Added -[no]checkout to control the labeling of checked out files.`
		7557	`There are three modes of operation:`
		7558	`1) -nocheckout Checked out files are not labeled`
		7559	`2) -checkout Only checked out files are labeled`
		7560	`3) Neither All files are labeled.`

		7571	`This options retains the locked state of a label.`
		7572
		7573	`* AVR_IAR toolset`
		7574	`Extended the 'Prog' directive to allow a Program Loader to be`
		7575	`added to a program as it is created. The option is:`
		7576	`--ProgLoader=name`
		7577
		7578	`* Package directives. PackageFile`
		7579	`Added support for packaging of directory trees.`
		7580	`Options to do this are:`
		7581	`--TreeDir=name`
		7582	`--FilterOut=regexp`
		7583	`--FilterIn=regexp`
		7584	`--StripDir`
		7585
		7586	`Only a single directory can be specified.`
		7587	`Multiple filters are allowed.`
		7588	`The directories must be within the current directory. It is not`
		7589	`possible to search outside the subdirectory tree below the makefile.`
		7590
		7591	`The filters allow elements within the directory to be selected.`
		7592	`The filters are regular expressions. Examples:`
		7593
		7594	`'--FilterIn=\.h$' - Select all files ending with .h`
		7595	`'--FilterOut=MyHeader.h' - Except this one`
		7596
		7597	`The --StripDir option will remove the TreeDir directory from the`
		7598	`files. This allows the top level directory to be stripped off.`
		7599
		7600
		7601	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7602	`Version: JATS_2.39.0 Released: 14-Sep-05`
		7603	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7604	`Major changes:`
		7605	`* Make commands`
		7606	`Consolidated the parsing of the OPTIONS arguments.`
		7607
		7608	`The filter and nofilter options are globally applied to all tools`
		7609	`sets. ie: jats make debug OPTIONS=nofilter`
		7610
		7611	`* Label utility`
		7612	`Generate a warning when attempting to label a symbolic link.`
		7613	`Links are very hard to maintain in a reproducible manner.`
		7614
		7615	`Minor changes:`

		7617	`Replaced the use of c:\WINDOWS and c:\Program Files with suitable`
		7618	`variables and overrides.`
		7619
		7620	`The make_init target is always run.`
		7621	`This facility had been lost. The target was being used to provide`
		7622	`compiler sanity testing, but had was not being reliably run.`
		7623
		7624	`* Deployment`
		7625	`Suppress testing of compiler existence when used in conjunction`
		7626	`with deployment operations.`
		7627
		7628	`* Release utility`
		7629	`Add options to build only the debug or the production versions.`
		7630	`The default is to build both. Note: User option may be further`
		7631	`restricted by options within the build.`
		7632
		7633	`* PackageLib, InstallLib and MergeLib directives in makefile.pl`
		7634	`The use of @LIBS and @MLIBS in unix systems was causing a`
		7635	`problem as these variables already had a 'lib' prepended to the`
		7636	`list of libraries. These directives would add another 'lib' to the`
		7637	`list of libraries under unix causing a mismatch.`
		7638
		7639	`Corrected by stripping liblib from the names within these`
		7640	`directives.`
		7641
		7642	`* MakeProject directive`
		7643	`If the project build fails the log file was not being displayed`
		7644	`because 'make' stops when a command fails.`
		7645
		7646	`The MakeProject operations have been modified to ensure that the`
		7647	`log file is always displayed. The exit code of the build command`
		7648	`is preserved.`
		7649
		7650	`* Auto build utility jats-rewrite.pl`
		7651	`Modified to support the rewrite of Java 'using' and 'project'`
		7652	`statements.`
		7653
		7654	`* Mugfile generation`
		7655	`Added a --ThxDir=xxxx option to allow the THX and load files to`

		7668	`number.`
		7669
		7670	`Minor changes:`
		7671	`* AddFlags directives`
		7672	`Added a --NoWarn option that will suppress the warning of`
		7673	`duplicate flags being added.`
		7674
		7675	`* GBE_CORE environment variable (Windows)`
		7676	`Ensure that GBE_CORE has a driver letter. This allows use of JATS`
		7677	`loaded into the same dynamic view as the user code.`
		7678
		7679	`* Mug File Generation`
		7680	`Added support to allow load files to include other load files.`
		7681
		7682	`* 'cbuild' or 'release' command`
		7683	`Added a -latestroot=xxxx option. This is a work around for the`

		7685	`labeled. After using this switch add the label to the root`
		7686	`directory.`
		7687
		7688	`The need to use this this switch indicates that the view is NOT`

		7769	`installed on the machine.`
		7770
		7771	`* WINCE Targets`
		7772	`The name of the SDK is case sensitive.`

		7928	`* Support for Windows DLLs`
		7929	`When building a WIN32 target the file interface/set_WIN32.bat is`

		8011	`with only a comma between the platforms: No whitespace`
		8012	`If whitespace did exist then the makefile.pl would not do what`

		8167	`* SOLARIS_SPARC platform (GCC toolset)`
		8168	`The process of creating a Shared Libraries creates a soft link`
		8169	`to the the "GBEBIN" directory. This directory was not listed as`

		8171	`corrected.`
		8172
		8173	`* JATS will detect an "auto.pl" file and use it as an alternate`
		8174	`build.pl file. Previously this file was named build.use.pl.`
		8175
		8176	`* Correct problem when .PDB files are installed from a merged`

		8210
		8211	`* Preliminary Support`
		8212	`Global build options of --OnlyDebug and --OnlyProd, which are`

		8220	`These options limit processing to either Production or Debug`
		8221	`building. The default build will build both.`
		8222
		8223	`Minor changes:`
		8224	`* Extended the search path that JATS will use attempting to locate`
		8225	`a build.pl file. JATS will now look in ., build and build/jats`
		8226	`directories in the current directory and 3 directories up.`

		8257
		8258	`* LinkPkgArchive and BuildPkgArchive will cause the build to fail if`

		8262
		8263	`Minor changes:`
		8264	`* create_dpkg utility`

		8463	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8464	`Major changes:`
		8465	`* Modified the order in which the makefiles passes operate. Merged`
		8466	`the make_shlib and the install_shlib into one phase. The`
		8467	`implication of this is that Shared Libraries that are created can`
		8468	`"installed" so that other shared libraries can link against them.`
		8469	`The order in which the makefile.pl's are processed is important as`
		8470	`this is the order in which the libraries will be created and`
		8471	`installed.`
		8472
		8473	`This solution does not handle mutual shared libraries: two shared`
		8474	`libraries that depend on each other.`

		8485	`first directory named with a BuildDir directive, unless a`

		8487	`of the older JATS, without the need for a "src" directory.`

		8500	`* Fixed problem with the local_dpkg_archive consistency test when`
		8501	`a soft link is used to redirect to the package.`

		8511	`in the same manner at Shared Libraries.`
		8512
		8513	`* WinCE toolsets`
		8514	`Mutual DLL support corrected. Library path is used to resolve`
		8515	`compiler specific libraries.`
		8516
		8517	`* SOLARIS toolset`
		8518	`Prevent the compiler displaying its command line. This is in line`
		8519	`with the other tools sets. The commands can be seen with`
		8520	`OPTIONS=args and this may be set in the users environment.`
		8521
		8522	`Modified the cleanup process to delete the links to shared`
		8523	`libraries. Only files, and not links to files, where being`

		8537	`Major changes:`
		8538	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		8539	`The entire "include" directory is copied into the interface area`
		8540	`The installer was trying to be too smart and only copy platform`
		8541	`specific files,but was missing out many needed subdirectories`
		8542
		8543	`Reduce the warnings generated. These were an artifact of the process`
		8544	`of picking up all the strange variations of the directory structures.`
		8545
		8546	`* Cleaned up the handling of object files that were generated by the`
		8547	`user.`
		8548
		8549	`* MOS Microtec Toolset`
		8550	`Always present an absolute filename to the compiler`
		8551	`Display a shortened filename to allow the user to track progress`

		8581	`1) Allow --Platform=xxx,yyy`
		8582	`Where xxx is a directory prefix and yyy is suffix to the`
		8583	`"platform" name. Only useful within the context of the`
		8584	`PackageFile`
		8585
		8586	`2) The operation of --Platform=xxx when used by the PackageFile`
		8587	`directive now treats the xxx directory as a prefix to the`
		8588	`platform name. Other Package directives still treat it as a`
		8589	`suffix. In practice this is the logical use.`
		8590
		8591	`* Allow InstallLib and PackageLib to install a file that has been`
		8592	`discovered with a "Src" directive. This allows generated files`
		8593	`to be installed and packaged.`

		8595	`Minor changes:`
		8596
		8597	`* cache_dpkg utility`

		8602	`New option -auto to create and label`

		8604	`* Build WIN32 and WinCe Mutual DLLs with all the object files`
		8605	`This allows the generated import library to contain C++ names`
		8606
		8607	`* The BuildDirTree directive now supports an empty first argument`
		8608	`This allows a NULL tree.dir file, while still creating the root`
		8609	`directory. ie:`
		8610
		8611	`BuildDirTree ( '', 'pkg' );`
		8612
		8613	`* Fixed DEVIM 00019520`
		8614	`The problem was that /bin/pwd could return a different path to`
		8615	`the Cwd:getpwd() function. Solution: Use one mechanism throughout.`

		8617
		8618	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8619	`Version: JATS_2.9.0 Released: 28-Feb-05`
		8620	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8621	`Major changes:`
		8622	`* First release for Back Office and Front Office use.`
		8623
		8624	`* Added the jats tool jats_rewrite.pl to rewrite build.pl files.`
		8625	`To be used by the nightly build process.`
		8626
		8627	`* Work around a problem in the Microtec 68K compiler.`
		8628	`The compiler uses temp files. If the temp file name that the`
		8629	`compiler uses already exists, then the compiler will not delete`
		8630	`the file. Instead it appends information to the existing file.`
		8631
		8632	`The workaround is to create the temp files within the build's`
		8633	`interface directory and to remove all temp files before each`
		8634	`compilation.`
		8635
		8636	`This bug does not affect the Mictotec CF compiler.`
		8637
		8638	`Minor changes:`
		8639	`* The "jats clobber" command will remove version definition file, if`
		8640	`one is being produced.`
		8641
		8642	`* Using JATS within a Visual Studio project. The "rebuild all"`
		8643	`option now translates to the JATS unbuild command to do a better`
		8644	`job of cleaning the workspace.`
		8645
		8646	`* Added GetPackageRoot() directive to support the packaging of MOS`
		8647
		8648	`* Generate error message for misuse of the SubDir directive`
		8649
		8650	`* Modified BuildName to allow an '-' in the name.`
		8651	`This provides backward compatibility with existing packages.`
		8652
		8653	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8654	`Version: JATS_2.8.0 Released: 17-Feb-05`
		8655	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8656	`Major changes:`
		8657	`* Added some new WINCE based targets. These require WINCE SDKs to be`
		8658	`installed in order for the compilers to work.`
		8659
		8660	`* New PLATFORMS are WCEIT3000, WCEPA961 and WCEPCM7220`
		8661
		8662	`* All invocations of xmake specify the name of the makefile`
		8663	`This allow GNUMakefiles and the Jats makefiles to exist in the`
		8664	`same directory`
		8665
		8666	`* Overcome a limitation of the Microtec compiler in which the flag`
		8667	`_DEBUG is defined enev in production builds - contrary to the`
		8668	`documenattion.`
		8669
		8670	`Minor changes:`
		8671	`* Process of descpkg files allows for both Unix and DOS line endings`
		8672	`Under Unix JATS would report that the package names don't match`
		8673
		8674	`* Corrected a problem with BuildPkgArchive in which file names with`
		8675	`spaces could not be soft linked. Only affects Unix systems.`
		8676
		8677	`* Added a -rename to the "jats label" utility.`
		8678	`Ensure that the user specified label exists in the VOB`
		8679
		8680	`* Correct problem with "make clean" that resulted in a verbose display`
		8681	`when the verbose option had not been selected`
		8682
		8683	`* Correct a problem with "make unbuild". Changes in the build files`
		8684	`would prevent the execution of the command. This command should`
		8685	`be exempt from this test.`
		8686
		8687	`* Correct a problem with "make clean" in the WIN32 and WINCE`
		8688	`platforms where the .exp files were not deleted.`
		8689
		8690	`* The "JATS clobber" command now invokes "make clobber" and "build`
		8691	`clobber". The result is as clean a clean as it can be.`
		8692
		8693	`Note: Jats "clean" does not remove a lot of files. These can be`
		8694	`removed with "unbuild" and "unpackage". This is what "clobber"`
		8695	`does.`
		8696
		8697	`* The operation of "build clobber" has been cleaned up. It will`
		8698	`not try to invoke make if the makefiles have already been removed.`
		8699
		8700
		8701	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8702	`Version: JATS_2.7.0 Released: 09-Feb-05`
		8703	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8704	`Major changes:`
		8705	`* First release with support for the DAFBR compiler`
		8706
		8707	`* Extended MergeLibrary. Added per-file options of:`
		8708	`--Interface - Pull lib from Interface directory`
		8709	`--Local - Pull lib from Local directory (default)`
		8710	`--SubDir=pathname - Pull lib from a subdirectory`
		8711	`Note: xxxx,pathname still works`
		8712
		8713	`* Added "jats label" to provide a number of useful labeling`
		8714	`operations.`
		8715
		8716	`* Added extensive help to JATS. JATS -man.`
		8717
		8718	`* Added this manual ChangeLog file`
		8719
		8720	`Minor changes`
		8721	`* Added an 'ebin' command to jats to allow the JATS binary tools to`
		8722	`be run in a controlled environment from the command line.`
		8723
		8724	`* Prune the list of library paths passed through to the various`
		8725	`toolsets. If a directory does not have any files in it then the`
		8726	`directory is not added to the library path.`
		8727
		8728	`Thus if a library is located in xxxx/lib/WIN32 then JATS will`
		8729	`not add the xxxx/lib to the path.`
		8730
		8731	`* cbuilder will now look in all VOBs for the user specified label.`
		8732	`The program has a list of "known" labels which it will search`
		8733	`first in an attempt to speed up the process.`
		8734
		8735	`* The AddFlags directive will issue a warning if the flags does not`
		8736	`begin with a -D or a -U. The user should not be using compiler`
		8737	`specific flags.`
		8738
		8739	`* The use of linker flags will issue a warning.`
		8740
		8741	`* Process the common makefile.pl after the toolset has been`
		8742	`determined. This allows the toolset to extend the CompileOptions`
		8743	`such they are available to the common makefile.pl.`
		8744
		8745	`* Added the WIN32 CompileOptions "jats_v1" to force JATS to specify`
		8746	`a number of compile time definitions used by earlier versions of`
		8747	`JATS.`
		8748
		8749	`* Fixed bug in the --Debug option to the PackageProg directives that`
		8750	`caused both the production and debug versions to be packaged.`
		8751
		8752	`* The gen_msproject utility now creates simpler names for the MS`
		8753	`projects that it creates. The name no longer contains the full`
		8754	`pathname, thus making them shorter and readable.`
		8755
		8756	`* The ShowDlls utility now handles absolute and relative paths to`
		8757	`the initial DLL or EXE.`
		8758
		8759	`* Correct problem in which the use of Generate/Rule directives may`
		8760	`fail since prerequisite subdirectories were not being created`
		8761	`since the "generate" phase was not being run.`
		8762
		8763	`Added messages to prompt the user to remove Generate, Generated`
		8764	`and Rule directives. Use the GenerateFiles directive`
		8765
		8766	`* JATS.BAT file will exclude LINUX builds by default.`
		8767
		8768	`* The make NODEPEND=1 processing now does not recurse at all.`
		8769	`Previously each subdirectory was visited - only to do nothing.`
		8770
		8771	`* Correct a problem in creating stub libraries for MOS targets if`
		8772	`the stub library object was not listed with the SharedLib's`
		8773	`objects.`
		8774
		8775	`* Correct a problem with the MS Studio support. The invoked make`
		8776	`command is XXX_all_debug. There was a problem with this command in`
		8777	`that it did not do any dependancy checking and would not always`
		8778	`build defendants.`
