		3569	`* Makefile directive helper function: If`
		3570	`Used within another directive to enable or disable arguments passed to the`

		3572	`all Jats Make directives. If making for the specified platform, then the`
		3573	`remainder of the arguments are inserted into the directives argument`
		3574	`stream.`
		3575
		3576	`Example:`
		3577
		3578	`SharedLib ( '*', 'mySharedLib', @OBJS`

		3587
		3588	`* GCC Toolkit`
		3589	`Changes to the shared library dependency processing to bring it inline`
		3590	`with other toolers. Will terminate after determining that some`
		3591	`libraries cannot be found. This will ensure that the error message is at`
		3592	`the point of termination.`
		3593
		3594	`* Jats save_build utility`
		3595	`Corrected problem in unreserving a reserved checkout of a build.pl file`
		3596	`under windows.`
		3597
		3598	`* Jats sandbox`
		3599	`ClearCase views created with in the sandbox are created with a tag that`

		3672
		3673	`* Solaris builds`
		3674	`Program and Shared library dependency checking is now done before`

		3999	`This toolset has a number of limitations:`
		4000	`1) It can build either Debug or Production, but not both, in a single`
		4001	`makefile.pl. This is caused by the Delphi limitation that library`
		4002	`names cannot be changed.`
		4003
		4004	`2) The generation of dependencies between the source and the generated`
		4005	`artifacts is very simplistic.`
		4006
		4007	`Units are generated with the 'Lib' directive. The name of the Unit and the`
		4008	`name of the source are linked. The source should not be provided.`
		4009	`ie: Lib ('*', 'MyUnit' );`
		4010	`Will create a unit called MyUnit.dcu from the source file 'MyUnit.pas'`
		4011
		4012	`Packages are generated with the SharedLib directive starting with a .dpk`
		4013	`file.`
		4014	`ie: SharedLib ( '*', 'MyPackage' );`
		4015	`will create a package called MyPackage.bpl/dcp from the source file`
		4016	`MyPackage.dpk.`
		4017
		4018	`Libraries are generated with the SharedLib directive starting with a .dpr`
		4019	`file.`
		4020	`ie: SharedLib ( '*', 'MyDll' );`
		4021	`will create a package called MyDll.dll/lib from the source file`
		4022	`MyDll.dpr.`
		4023
		4024	`Programs are generated with the Prog directive starting with a .dpr`
		4025	`file.`
		4026	`ie: Prog ( '*', 'MyProg' );`
		4027	`will create a package called MyProg.exe from the source file`
		4028	`MyProg.dpr.`
		4029
		4030	`Minor changes:`
		4031	`* New EnvVar: DELPHI7`
		4032	`Required only if Borland Delphi 7 has not being installed in the`
		4033	`standard location or if the Windows Short Name is not`
		4034	`c:\PROGRA~1\Borland\Delphi7`

		4036	`* BuildVersion directive`
		4037	`Added a 'Style' of 'Delphi' to allow the generation of version information`

		4039
		4040	`Modified the operation of the "C" style generation.`
		4041	`If the name of the file is provided via '--File', then the generated files`
		4042	`will be 'known' to JATS and can be consumed from any makefile. JATS will`
		4043	`'know' the location of the files.`
		4044
		4045	`* Sanity test on the names of libraries and programs`
		4046	`Some characters are not allowed: ie: '/' as this is a mistake.`
		4047
		4048	`Internal Changes:`
		4049	`* ToolsetSHLD functions`
		4050	`Pass in the shared library version string as an argument`
		4051	`Means that the core of JATS can manage this information in a manner`
		4052	`that is decoupled from the toolsets.`
		4053
		4054	`* Reworked the mechanism used to hold data about libraries, shared libraries`
		4055	`merged libraries and programs. Created a class to manipulate build targets`
		4056	`and to maintain information about the contents of the targets.`

277	dpurdie	4135
279	dpurdie	4136	`JATS will automatically filter out target platforms that cannot be built`
		4137	`on the users machine. ie: It will not try to build Solaris targets on a`
		4138	`Windows machine. Thus, under the new scheme a Windows GBE_BUILDFILTER need`
281	dpurdie	4139	`not contain '!SOLARIS'`

		5092	`Jats can now release itself. This is not the same a building all of its`

		5126	`* Jats Tool: CCbc2`
		5127	`Added utility to use BeyondCompare (BC2) to compare files in two`

		5129	`and starts BeyondCompare. The views are destroyed at the end of the`
		5130	`process.`
		5131
		5132	`Requires BeyondCompare to be installed in its default location.`

		5140	`* Jats test runtime helper scripts set_PLATFORM.bat`

		5188	`Added a run-time test for the presence of the required toolset`
		5189	`This will report an error if the required WINCE toolset has not been`

		5193	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		5194	`If the generating tool can only be found in the users path, don't make`

		5353
		5354	`Programs that are created with 'misalign' will automatically include the`

		5358	`Make and generation of subdirectories`

		5371	`Summary of changes:`
		5372	`- Removed the use of 'make' to perform recursion over subdirectories`
		5373	`and platforms. This has been replaced by a JATS program that performs`
		5374	`the same task - only a great deal faster and with a greater scope for`
		5375	`flexibility.`
		5376
		5377	`The user interface remains identical: jats make ....`
		5378
		5379	`- Replaced the generated 'Makefile' with 'Makefile.gbe'. This is a text`
		5380	`file that provides sufficient information to allow JATS to locate the`
		5381	`interface directory and associated build information.`
		5382
		5383	`- Significant speed up in determining the need to rebuild a makefile.`
		5384	`On a large package this has been reduced from 30+ seconds to less`
		5385	`than one second.`
		5386
		5387	`- Significant speed up of large recursive builds through intelligent`
		5388	`building of the 'make_init' target. This is only processed once for`
		5389	`each platform type. Previously it was processed in each and every`
		5390	`makefile. This make target is used, internally, to perform sanity`
		5391	`testing of the compiler environment and to display the name of the`
		5392	`toolset. It is an expensive operation.`
		5393
		5394	`- Intelligent speed up of large recursive through better mechanism`
		5395	`for creating required directories. These are now created on the fly,`
		5396	`rather than via a slow recursive pass though all makefiles.`
		5397
		5398	`- Better makefile rebuilding`
		5399	`Makefiles can be rebuilt on the fly. The previous system was prone to`
		5400	`detecting that makefiles needs to be re-built, but then not re-`
		5401	`building them.`
		5402
		5403	`- Detection of build file changes`
		5404	`The make process will detect that the build file has been modified`
		5405	`and that the component has not been rebuilt. This is a warning. It`
		5406	`does not prevent the 'make' operation.`
		5407
		5408	`- Quieter make output`
		5409	`The 'Nothing to be done' message has been disabled.`
		5410
		5411
		5412	`Minor changes:`
		5413	`MakeAnt Directive`
		5414	`Allows ANT_HOME to be a path with spaces. ie: c:\Program Files\apache-ant-1.6.5`
		5415
		5416	`JATS command "debug" and "prod"`
		5417	`These now handle make arguments and options correctly. Thus the command:`
		5418	`jats prod WIN32 OPTIONS=args`
		5419	`Will correctly do a production build for WIN32 with command execution`
		5420	`display. Before, the system would attempt to process prod_OPTIONS=args.`
		5421
		5422	`CSHARP toolset`
		5423	`Correctly detect missing compiler directories`

		5517	`Minor changes:`
		5518	`* Reverted changes made in JATS_2.68.1 to the library search path`
		5519	`Although the search order is broken, we will need to live with it.`
		5520
		5521	`Addressed the search order of /usr/lib under Solaris by adding a new`

		5523	`last.`
		5524
		5525	`For the record, the search order for header files and libraries is:`

		5550	`Major changes:`
		5551
		5552	`Minor changes:`
		5553	`* Solaris Toolset`
		5554	`Corrected library search order, such that /usr/lib is search after the`
		5555	`dependent packages.`
		5556
		5557	`* RunTest operation`

		5563	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5564	`Version: JATS_2.68.0 Released: 20-Aug-07`
		5565	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5566	`Major changes:`
		5567	`* Trap use of uncontrolled versions of 'ant' and the Java Compiler (javac)`
		5568
		5569	`It was discovered that a few old makefile.pl's where invoking ant and`
		5570	`javac directly in order to build small Java components. This was`
		5571	`normally being done in the guise of the WIN32 target. These packages`
		5572	`were making assumptions about the version of Java on the users search`
		5573	`path.`
		5574
		5575	`JATS can invoke ANT and build Java based components using the MakeAnt`
		5576	`directive and the JAVA platform. This method is controlled and`
		5577	`reproducible.`
		5578
		5579	`This release provides changes such that these packages will not build.`
		5580	`This is better than building incorrectly.`
		5581
		5582	`There are several aspects to the change`
		5583	`1) JATS provides binaries (ant and javac) with an error message. If`
		5584	`the user invoked ant/javac in a manner that involves searching the`
		5585	`PATH then these will be used and report an error.`
		5586
		5587	`2) A special command (jats abt) can be used to start up the Auto Build`
		5588	`Tool in a manner that does not alter the PATH seen by the utilities.`
		5589	`Moreover it does not alter the JAVA_HOME seen by the build. This is`
		5590	`controlled separately.`
		5591
		5592	`Minor changes:`
		5593	`* Sanitize the PATH environment variable`
		5594	`Ensure the JATS bin directory is the first directory searched`
		5595	`Remove duplicates`
		5596	`Place non-existent components at the end of the PATH`
		5597
		5598	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5599	`Version: JATS_2.67.1 Released: 17-Aug-07`
		5600	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5601	`Major changes:`
		5602
		5603	`Minor changes:`
		5604	`* Makefile sanity test`
		5605	`Added a test to ensure that makefiles created on a machine of one type are`
		5606	`not then run on a machine of a different type.`
		5607
		5608	`This will prevent files created on solaris-sparc being used on a solaris-`
		5609	`x86 machine.`
		5610
		5611	`* Correct bug in RunTest`
		5612	`RunTest now extends the PATH to include the local bin directory`

		5615	`Version: JATS_2.67.0 Released: 13-Aug-07`
		5616	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5617	`Major changes:`
		5618	`* RunTest directive`
		5619	`Added support for running tests within the NUNIT test framework for the`
		5620	`CSHARP target. In the process a generalized mechanism for accessing`
		5621	`toolset specific test frameworks has been added.`
		5622
		5623	`Changes to the directive to support a FrameWork.`
		5624	`The use of a test FrameWork is signaled with the option`
		5625	`--FrameWork=<name> If this is present then the raw name of the program`
		5626	`under test will be passed to the framework. program.`
		5627
		5628	`If a FrameWork is in use, then JATS will invoke the specified framework`
		5629	`builder within the current toolset.`
		5630
		5631	`When a framework is in place JATS will pass arguments of the form:`
		5632	`'--Tag=Text' to the FrameWork. Other options are processed as normal.`
		5633
		5634	`With in the Nunit FrameWork the program under test will be a DLL Nunit`
		5635	`will only operate on a DLL. The DLL must have been created by the makefile`
		5636	`containing the RunTest directive.`
		5637
		5638	`The Nunit Framework supports the following options:`
		5639	`--Uses=<Name>[,SubOption]+`
		5640
		5641	`This option specifies other DLLs that are used by the TestDLL. They will`
		5642	`be copied in to the test directory, and may be sourced from an external`
		5643	`package or the components 'local' lib directory.`
		5644
		5645	`SubOptions available to The --Uses directive are:`
		5646	`--NonJats This is not a JATS built library. It will not have a`
		5647	`P or D suffix.`
		5648	`--Jats (Default) This is a JATS built library. JATS will`
		5649	`select the correct library type for this build.`
		5650
		5651	`Minor changes:`
		5652	`* New Cache cleanup mechanism`
		5653	`When a package is consumed from the 'cache' a flag is updated within`
		5654	`the cache. The cache aging routines use this file in preference to`
		5655	`the descpkg file, thus it will prevent the aging of packages that are`
		5656	`frequently used. The aging policy can be made more aggressive.`
		5657
		5658	`* Save Build Utility`
		5659	`This utility is used by the Auto Build System to save the 'build.pl' file`
		5660	`used in a ripple build.`
		5661
		5662	`The utility has been enhanced to detect a reserved checkout of the`
		5663	`build.pl. The checkout will be changed to unreserved - if possible.`
		5664
		5665	`* Release Utility`
		5666	`The 'jats release' command will now unlock any labels that it locked`
		5667	`when an error is encountered.`
		5668
		5669	`This simplifies the 'release' process as the developers label will be`
		5670	`unlocked if a build error occurs.`
		5671
		5672	`* Jats caching local copy of itself`
		5673	`Fixed a bug which resulted in an "Use of individualized value" message`
		5674	`being displayed a large number of times during the file transfer process.`
		5675
		5676	`* Minor extension to allow plug-in directives to perform a processing step`
		5677	`before the makefiles are created.`
		5678
		5679	`* TestProg directive`
		5680	`TestProg's are now built in exactly the same manner as Progs`
		5681
		5682	`* Correct problem introduced in 2.66.1 with packaging of files with`
		5683	`a 'space' or '$' in the file name.`
		5684

		5687	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5688	`Major changes:`
		5689	`* New build target`
		5690	`LINUX_ETX - Support for Linux on an ETX board`
		5691	`LMOS_LINUX_ETX - Support for LMOS on the LINUX_ETX target`
		5692
		5693	`These targets have also been added to the following pseudo targets.`
		5694	`DEVLINUX`
		5695	`LMOS_DEVLINUX`
		5696
		5697	`* Internal utility dpkg_cache [Windows]`
		5698	`Modified to remove use of system utilities to perform the the file`
		5699	`transfer, after having problems the 'cp.exe' provided by JATS.`
		5700
		5701	`Minor changes:`
		5702	`* Added utility class to provide directory searching`
		5703	`To be used in JATS and JATS support tools`

		5705	`* tweaks to the C# toolset`
		5706	`Correct problem with filename that start with "n" as in .\not_nice.cs`
		5707
		5708	`Create resource files with Fully Qualified Names derived from the .resx`
		5709	`and .cs files.`
		5710
		5711	`Handle Strong Key Names and creates wrappers to provide do the right`
		5712	`thing.`
		5713
		5714	`* Microtec ColdFire compiler`
		5715	`Further attempts to get the compiler to place all of its temp files in a`
		5716	`local directory. The compiler uses a large number of EnVars to control`
		5717	`were it places temp files.`
		5718
		5719	`Underlying problem is random compiler failures on big builds. Suspected`
		5720	`interaction with other builds.`
		5721
		5722	`* Release utility command`
		5723	`Added a -tag=name option to allow the Auto Build Tools to create`
		5724	`multiple instances of a static view. The tag is used to provide a unique`
		5725	`component in the clearcase tag name.`

		5837	`* GCC Toolset`
		5838	`Creating Shared Libaries with a 'Def' file. The library is now dependent`
		5839	`on the Def file, such that changes to the Def file will cause the library to`
		5840	`be rebuilt.`
		5841
		5842	`* MakeAnt and MakeProject directives`
		5843	`Preserve the order in which projects are built.`

		5847	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5848	`Major changes:`
		5849	`* Access to Release Manager and Deployment Manager databases`
		5850	`The database location, user and password have been made configurable via`
		5851	`environment variables.`
		5852
		5853	`Reason: The Release Manager and Deployment Manager databases are being`
		5854	`moved.`
		5855
		5856	`This will affect users that:`
		5857	`1) Use tools that access RM or DM`
		5858	`Some tools that build deployable packages`
		5859
		5860	`2) Use the ABT system`
		5861	`The buildadm user, and the ABT scripts will be modified to provide`
		5862	`the required configuration`
		5863
		5864	`If you need to use tools that access RM or DM, outside of the ABT scripts on`
		5865	`the build machine then you will need to add the following environment`
		5866	`definitions to your .profile_bash, or jats.bat.`

		5889	`LMOS_ARM9TDMI, LMOS_LINUX_EMU, LMOS_WIN32`
		5890
		5891	`Many of these targets are designed to replace the badly named platforms`
		5892	`of TP5600_ARM9TDMI and TP5600_EMU. These will be removed in a future`
		5893	`release.`
		5894
		5895	`The GBE_BUILDFILTER for linux boxes may need to be changed to`
		5896	`LINUX_I386 ARM9TDMI LINUX_EMU LMOS_ARM9TDMI LMOS_LINUX_EMU`
		5897
		5898	`The TP5600* targets should be removed to make it obvious that these packages`
		5899	`need to be converted.`
		5900
		5901	`* Building Linux Device Drivers`
		5902	`The hard-coded path to the Kernel Headers has been removed.`
		5903	`Linux Drivers must be built with a suitable package to provide`
		5904	`the kernel headers. This allows multiple versions of the linux kernel to be`

		5921	`Added options to allow the and project to unit tests.`
		5922
		5923	`New options`
		5924	`--AutoTest=<target> # Run as Automated unit test`
		5925	`--UnitTest=<target> # Run as Unit test`

		5936	`Use platform configuration information to prune platforms from the list of`
		5937	`platforms that will be 'built'.`
		5938
		5939	`This simplies the construction of a GBE_BUILDFILTER`
		5940
		5941	`This information is not available for all supported platforms, but is`

		5963	`LMOS_TP5600_EMU`
		5964
		5965	`LMOS_TP5600 is a tag that will be expanded to the entire family of LMOS_TP5600`
		5966	`supported targets. A common alias of LMOS_T5600 will be created to`

		5968
		5969	`LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI and LMOS_TP5600_EMU`
		5970	`These are LMOS based targets. The 'lmos' package must be used in order to`

		5972
		5973	`The LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI can use components from the TP5600_ARM9TDMI,`

		5975
		5976	`The LMOS_TP5600_EMU can use components from the TP5600_EMU,`
		5977	`where no LMOS_TP5600_EMU components are provided.`
		5978
		5979	`* New build platform: WINCE`
		5980	`This is a tag that will be expanded to all the known WINCE targets.`
		5981	`Use of this platform will simplify the creation of components for`
		5982	`consumption on all WINCE machines.`
		5983
		5984	`The current list of WINCE targets is:`
		5985	`WCEIT3000`

		5994	`WCEX86A500_SOM4455`
		5995
		5996	`The WINCE targets actually built will be affected by GBE_BUILDFILTER.`
		5997
		5998	`* JATS makefile.pl`
		5999	`The package descriptor file, 'descpkg', will be packaged in all makefiles`
		6000	`that contain packaging directives.`
		6001
		6002	`There is now no need to explicitly package the 'descpkg' file, except in`
		6003	`very unusual configurations.`
		6004
		6005	`Minor changes:`
		6006	`* Directive: PackageFile`
		6007	`Generate a warning if the source file name does not confirm to good naming`
		6008	`conventions. The filename must not start with a '-' and must not contain`
		6009	`an '='.`
		6010
		6011	`Normally the result of an error in the directive. ie: "-Subdir=etc", instead`
		6012	`of "--Subdir=etc".`
		6013
		6014	`* JATS Internal utility: cmdfile`
		6015	`Updated Linux and Solaris targets with a version of the cmdfile that`
		6016	`provides a better error message for libraries that cannot be found.`
		6017
		6018	`This version will display the library search path with one item per line,`
		6019	`rather than all items on one, very long, line.`

		6021	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6022	`Version: JATS_2.63.0 Released: 5-Apr-07`
		6023	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6024	`Major changes:`
		6025
		6026	`* JATS release command`
		6027	`Modified the configuration spec generated when a branching rule is`
		6028	`specified. The change will ensure that directories are not branched.`
		6029
		6030	`Rules are:`
		6031	`Modify a file: File will branch`
		6032	`Adding a file: Containing directory will not branch`
		6033	`File will be placed on a branch`
		6034	`Add a directory: Containing directory will not branch`
		6035	`New directory will branch`
		6036
		6037	`Minor changes:`
		6038	`* JATS release command`
		6039	`Added -noprefex option to allow the creation of a view directory without the`
		6040	`user name being prefixed to it. This is useful in creating an escrow view.`
		6041
		6042	`* JATS label command`
		6043	`Detect and report parent directories that are checkedout when a label`
		6044	`is applied. Previously these had gone unreported.`
		6045
		6046	`* JATS make`
		6047	`Undo previous change to preserve symbolic links while Packaging and`
		6048	`Installing files. A problem was encountered when a file from a package`
		6049	`was re-packaged.`
		6050
		6051	`* JATS escrow`
		6052	`Added a tool to generate information for creating an escrow drop.`
		6053	`Use jats escrow -help for details`
		6054
		6055	`* makefile.pl directive: MakeAnt`
		6056	`This directive will create parameters to specify the location of external java`
		6057	`packages that have been referenced via a LinkPkgArchive directive.`
		6058
		6059	`This allows the build.xml to contruct a CLASSPATH to access JAR files in`
		6060	`packages, without the overhead of copying the entire package into the`
		6061	`interface directory.`
		6062
		6063	`* build.pl directive: BuildPkgArchive`
		6064	`Modified the processing of 'jar' directories.`
		6065	`Directories of the form 'jar.<target>' will be transferred into the 'jar'`
		6066	`directory as seen by the package.`
		6067
		6068	`Intended use: Deployment of oraclient for Solaris 10`
		6069
		6070	`* JAVA 6`
		6071	`JATS now supports all versions of Java through the use of JAVA_HOME_X_Y`
		6072	`environment variables. Where X andY specify the version of JAVA.`
		6073
		6074	`The jats.bat and jats.sh example files only provide indication of 1.4, 1.5`
		6075	`and 1.6 support, but all versions are now supported.`
		6076
		6077	`The "jats vars -v" command will display all JAVA_HOME environment variables`
		6078
		6079	`* Jats command: vars`
		6080	`Extended to show a "*" for EnvVars that do not address a valid directory`
		6081	`These indicate potential problems.`
		6082
		6083	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6084	`Version: JATS_2.62.4 Released: 20-Mar-07`
		6085	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6086	`Major changes:`
		6087	`* JATS create_dpkg + packageing shared libraries (Unix)`
		6088	`When a shared library is created a simple symbolic link to the versioned`
		6089	`libarry is also created.`
		6090
		6091	`Previous versions of JATS would replace the symbolic link with a physical`
		6092	`copy of the file. The effect of this is that when the shared libaries is`
		6093	`'Installed', 'Packaged' and transferred into dpkg_archive there are two`
		6094	`files, instead of one file and one link to the file (in the same directory)`
		6095	`The Solaris shared libraries can be quite large, due to the debug`
		6096	`information contained within the file.`
		6097
		6098	`This version of JATS will preserve symbolic links when 'Installing',`
		6099	`'Packaging' and transferring to dpkg_archive.`
		6100
		6101	`The advantage of this will be significant reduction in disk space used`
		6102	`within the build environment and dpkg_archive.`
		6103
		6104	`* Building Perl Modules`
		6105	`Modified the process to prevent the module builder attempting to modify the`
		6106	`documentation on the build machine.`
		6107
		6108	`Integrated the 'jats clean' operation.`
		6109
		6110	`Minor changes:`
		6111	`* jats create_dpkg`
		6112	`Added an option to create a built.generic file`
		6113	`This is only used by the Automated Built Tools.`
		6114
		6115	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6116	`Version: JATS_2.62.3 Released: 28-Feb-07`
		6117	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6118	`Major changes:`
		6119	`* JATS JAVA build target`
		6120	`The default behaviour of the JAVA build target has changed such that the`
		6121	`default version of JAVA used will be 1.4.`
		6122
		6123	`Previous behaviour was to use whichever version was specified by the EnvVar`
		6124	`JAVA_HOME. This was not controlled, thus the build was not controlled.`
		6125	`Problems occur when using the new AutoBuildTool as it uses Java 1.5 and this`
		6126	`is then picked up as the default version.`
		6127
		6128	`If a version, other than 1.4, is required then specify it within the`
		6129	`build.pl file.`
		6130
		6131	`Minor changes:`
		6132	`* jats release`
		6133	`Ensure that the 'cleartool' command can be found in the users PATH`
		6134	`Issue an error if it cannot be found.`
		6135	`This error indicates bad DevEnv setup`
		6136
		6137	`Added facility to create a view based on a config_spec, instead of a label.`
		6138	`Such a view cannot be used to create a release. It is intended to simplify`
		6139	`the creation of simple static views. The name of view is, by default,`
		6140	`based on the name of the config spec. Use the -view=name option to change`
		6141	`the name of the view.`
		6142
		6143	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		6144	`Added new --Vars() to allow packaging of JATS plugin tools.`
		6145
		6146	`* MOS Toolset`
		6147	`When using MOS fast intermodule calls the optimizer will preload commonly`
		6148	`used memory addresses into a register BEFORE the GDP has been correctly set`
		6149	`up. Use the following option to suppress this optimization`
		6150
		6151	`Added: CompileOptions ('*', 'NoGlobalOptimization' );`
		6152
		6153
		6154	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6155	`Version: JATS_2.62.2 Released: 15-Feb-07`
		6156	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6157	`Major changes:`
		6158
		6159	`Minor changes:`
		6160	`* JATS environment`
		6161	`Ensure that the true path of the Perl executable is present in the PATH`
		6162	`environment variable. This allows build tool access to various perl utilities`
		6163	`that are located in the Perl bin directory.`
		6164
		6165	`Resolves issues in locating utilities such as pod2html`
		6166
		6167	`* Use of GENERIC platforms`
		6168	`Report an error if a GENERIC platform is mixed with any other platform`
		6169	`specifier. GENERIC is used for packages that build on all machines because`
		6170	`they do not use a compiler or linker. They simply contains files that need`
		6171	`to be packaged.`
		6172
		6173	`* Generated makefiles`
		6174	`Solaris and Linux: Ensure that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is exported if it is used.`
		6175
		6176	`* Generating MOS THX files`
		6177	`Added option --BinaryImage to the SharedLib directive used to create MOS THX`
		6178	`files. This option will create a binary image (.bin) instead of a .thx file.`
		6179	`This is being used in the creation of BR Applets.`
		6180
		6181	`SharedLib ( 'MOS', "xxx", @OBJS, "--Rel=xxx.rel", "--BinaryImage" );`
		6182
		6183	`* JATS release`
		6184	`Correct the operation of the -path option under Unix`
		6185
		6186	`* JATS extract`
		6187	`New JATS command. This is the same as 'jats release -extract'`
		6188
		6189	`* JATS Toolset`
		6190	`Added support for the WinCe PSION (WCEPSION_420)`
		6191	`This is a armv4i device using 4.20 of the WCE SDK`
		6192
		6193
		6194	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6195	`Version: JATS_2.62.1 Released: 18-Jan-07`
		6196	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6197	`Major changes:`
		6198
		6199	`Minor changes:`
		6200	`* jats label`
		6201	`Added a -vob=name option`
		6202	`This allwos the label utility to create, lock, unlock, rename and delete`
		6203	`labels without the user actually being located within the VOB. This option`
		6204	`cannot be used in conjunction with operations that place labels on files.`
		6205	`It can only be used for operations that manipulate the label.`
		6206
		6207	`Added a -user=name option`
		6208	`This extends the operation of the -mine operation to change ownership of the`
		6209	`label to the named user.`
		6210
		6211	`* jats release`
		6212	`Displays the path to the view and the build file in a user friendly manner`
		6213	`Under Windows it uses \, unless running under cygwin.`
		6214
		6215	`* JATS build.pl`
		6216	`BuildProduct supports the --Uses=xxxx construct on a per-target basis.`
		6217	`ie:`
		6218	`BuildProduct ('TP5', 'LMOS_TP5600_EMU', 'LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI,--Uses=TP5600_ARM9TDMI');`
		6219

		6222	`Version: JATS_2.62.0 Released: 22-Dec-06`
		6223	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6224	`Major changes:`
		6225	`* GenerateFiles and RunTest directives`
		6226	`These directives have been extended to allow a large number of makefile`
		6227	`values to be added to the command lines,without resorting to knowledge of`
		6228	`the makefile internals. ie:`
		6229	`--Var(BuildName)`
		6230	`will be expanded to (hen building MyPackage)`
		6231	`-BuildName=MyPackage`
		6232
		6233	`The complete list of Variables is provided in the JATS manual.`
		6234
		6235	`* GenerateFiles`
		6236	`Added a --Clean option to allow tools to be invoked in the 'clean' phase`
		6237	`This allows external scripts to cleanup.`
		6238
		6239	`* BuildPlatforms`
		6240	`Restored operation of the --Uses option`
		6241
		6242	`Minor changes:`
		6243	`* GCC Toolset`
		6244	`Exports path to compiler. Used by scripts to build packages`
		6245
		6246	`Internal changes:`
		6247	`* GenerateFiles`
		6248	`Maintains the arguments in an array for simpler processing.`
		6249
		6250	`--Shell is now processed by the 'make' shell rather then invoking an`
		6251	`external shell. It will be the same shell, just easier to setup.`
		6252
		6253
		6254	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6255	`Version: JATS_2.61.3 Released: 14-Dec-06`
		6256	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6257	`Major changes:`
		6258	`* Caching JATS`
		6259	`Added a mechanism whereby JATS can cache a copy of itself on the users local`
		6260	`drive. This is applicable to windows.`
		6261
		6262	`This mechanism will allow a user to address JATS via the soft-links in`
		6263	`dpkg_archive and pick up the current version of JATS without the penalty of`
		6264	`then using JATS across a slow(network) link.`
		6265
		6266	`The EnvVar GBE_CACHE_JATS controls the operation of this feature.`
		6267	`Set GBE_CACHE_JATS to one to enable the operation, but it will only be`
		6268	`effective if JATS is being run from GBE_DPKG in the first place.`
		6269
		6270	`Use: Build Machines and Windows Users`
		6271
		6272	`Minor changes:`
		6273	`* Build directive: BuildAlias with --Target option`
		6274	`Corrected a problem when the target name is a expanded platform name (ie:`
		6275	`TP5600) that prevent correct expansion.`
		6276
		6277	`* jats build`
		6278	`If the user has not configured a cache, then do not attempt to cache`
		6279	`packages. This will remove an annoying warning message for each package`
		6280	`processed by the build.`
		6281
		6282	`* jats build`
		6283	`Modified the error messages generated when JATS fails to create the`
		6284	`makefiles. The previous system would report failures while creating`
		6285	`makefiles and, at the end of the process, it would generate a large error`
		6286	`message to indicate the failure. This large message diverted the users`
		6287	`from reading the other error messages resulting in confusion.`
		6288
		6289	`* PackageFile, PackageLib, PackageProg and PackageHdr`
		6290	`Detect and report as an error use of the --Dir=<Path> option where the`
		6291	`Path is not specified.`
		6292
		6293	`Most instances of this error will be where the option has been mis-used in`
		6294	`conjunction with a package.pl file, or during transition from using a`
		6295	`package.pl file. That change is detects errors where the user has specified`
		6296	`--Dir=$Pinc`
		6297	`but $Pinc is not defined.`
		6298
		6299	`* Purify and Purecov under Windows`
		6300	`Changes to correct the operation of Rational's tools when used on the`
		6301	`Windows platform.`
		6302
		6303	`- OPTIONS=purecov`
		6304	`Forces the link operations to generate the relocation table required`
		6305	`by 'purecov.`
		6306
		6307	`Does not attempt to use purecov in the compiler tool chain`
		6308	`This is required under Solaris, but not Windows`
		6309
		6310	`- OPTIONS=purify`
		6311	`Does not attempt to use purecov in the compiler tool chain`
		6312	`This is required under Solaris, but not Windows.`
		6313	`Under WIndows this option does nothing.`

		6335	`* Unix based systems`
		6336	`If the EnvVar LD_LIBRARY_PATH was undefined, then a warning would be`

		6546
		6547	`Minor changes:`
		6548	`* WIN32 and WINCE toolsets`
		6549	`SharedLib operation. Added an option to allow the creation of a 'stub'`

		6590	`a directory known to all platforms being built for a common OS.`
		6591
		6592	`Currently this is only supported to target platforms based on`
		6593	`SOLARIS`
		6594	`WIN32`
		6595
		6596	`* Removal of support for badly formed packages`
		6597	`As of this release libraries that exist in the <packagename>/lib directory`
		6598	`will not be available to JATS. These libraries are in the incorrect`
		6599	`directory. They MUST be in a directory that indicates the intended purpose`
		6600	`of the library. A .so library cannot be used on all machines ( linux,`
		6601	`solaris-sparc, solaris-amd ... ).`
		6602
		6603	`* Build Platform target name expansion facility`
		6604	`The build targets of SOLARIS and LINUX are seen as expandable names. They`
		6605	`will be expanded to suitable targets - depending on the host machine .`
		6606
		6607

		6613	`* Utility: JATS RELEASE`
		6614	`Added a -root=dirname to allow the user to place the created view at a given`
		6615	`location`
		6616
		6617	`Added GBE_VIEWBASE to provide a globally configured mechanism for`
		6618	`controlling the view location. Performs the same job as -root=xxxx`
		6619
		6620	`* Utility genrc`
		6621	`Added the company name to the copyright string`
		6622
		6623	`* Utility: jats_save_build`
		6624	`Added option: -new`
		6625	`This option forces the saved file only a new branch.`
		6626	`The option can be used to save a build.pl file onto a new project-specific`
		6627	`branch. Useful when branching an entire release.`
		6628
		6629	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6630	`Added options to allow project suffixes to be replaced.`
		6631	`Use: Convert a .syd project to a .bej project.`
		6632
		6633	`* Deprecated features: package.pl and tree.dir`
		6634	`These two build features are being deprecated. They are not suitable for`
		6635	`migration to other SOLARIS based platforms.`
		6636
		6637	`The Package directives provide sufficient power to replace the package.pl`
		6638	`features - in a uniform manner.`
		6639
		6640
		6641	`Internal Changes:`
		6642	`* Major rework of the JATS BuildPlatform, BuildAlias an BuildProducts`
		6643	`directives, together with the mechanism used to describe the platform builds.`
		6644
		6645	`Introduced a CFG/<PLATFORM>.CFG file to provide:`
		6646	`1) Platform information available at build time`
		6647	`2) Dynamic platform names`
		6648
		6649	`* Major rework of the 'SOLARIS' platform`
		6650	`The SOLARIS platform will generate one or more targets, depending on the`
		6651	`machine on which the platform is invoked.`
		6652
		6653	`Consolidated a number of SOLARIS specific kludges and converted them into`
		6654	`configurable items. These kludges are really on applicable to the`
		6655	`SOLARIS8_SPARC32 platform. New SOLARIS builds will be well formed.`
		6656
		6657	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6658	`Formalized a number of kludges in operation of the SOLARIS8 under sparc32`
		6659	`platform. These are configured early in the build process and are no longer`
		6660	`needed.`
		6661
		6662	`A side effect of this work is that files from external packages may be`
		6663	`located in 'SOLARIS', 'SOLARIS_sparc' or 'sparc' directories. The change`
		6664	`should be transparent as the consumer tools should be able to handle`
		6665	`files from all of these.`

		6678	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6679	`Major changes:`
		6680	`* Jats wrapper: Specify version of JATS to be used`
		6681	`Added a -version=xxxx option to force JATS to use a specific version of`
		6682	`JATS. The same operation can be achieved by setting GBE_JATS_VERSION.`
		6683
		6684	`The required version MUST be found in one of the known archives.`
		6685
		6686	`JATS will attempt to cache the version of JATS to assist in speeding up`
		6687	`the operations.`
		6688
		6689	`The version option MUST be the first option.`
		6690
		6691	`The version option MUST be followed by a '--' option.`
		6692	`This prevents JATS parsing other options and recursion issues.`
		6693
		6694	`Example: jats -version=2.54.3.cr -- build`
		6695
		6696	`* Migrated the "jats install" functionality out of the jats wrapper script`
		6697	`and into the create_dpkg utility. This is transparent to the user.`

		6700	`Added a '-quiet' option to allow use within scripts`
		6701	`Extended the built-in help`

		6711
		6712	`Minor changes:`
		6713	`* JATS wrapper script`
		6714	`Added a -ABT=xxx option to allow the Auto Build Tool to be invoked from`
		6715	`the command line.`
		6716
		6717	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6718	`Modified so that it will display changes. These will then be present in the`
		6719	`ABT log so that a developer can see which packages have been rippled.`
		6720
		6721	`Internal Changes:`
		6722	`* Common Error Reporting`
		6723	`Will use environment variables to control DEBUG and VERBOSE levels`
		6724	`for individual users. A module reporting with a name of XXXX will use EnvVars`
		6725	`of GBE_XXXX_VERBOSE and GBE_XXXX_DEBUG to control the debug and VERBOSE`
		6726	`level.`
		6727
		6728	`Force flushing after a "Question" is asked to ensure that the prompt is`
		6729	`displayed.`

		6754	`Major changes:`
		6755
		6756	`Minor changes:`
		6757	`* BR Compiler toolset`
		6758	`Corrected a problem in flagging that the non-version-1 compiler was in`
		6759	`use.`
		6760
		6761
		6762	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6763	`Version: JATS_2.54.1 Released: 29-Jun-06`
		6764	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6765	`Major changes:`
		6766
		6767	`Minor changes:`
		6768	`* Mictotec toolset`
		6769	`Assembler files. Define DEBUG in debug builds and NDEBUG in production`
		6770	`builds.`
		6771
		6772	`* JATS Core`
		6773	`Added GBE_ABT. This is used by the Auto Build Tool to indicate that an`
		6774	`auto build is in progress. It may be used by various tools to modify their`
		6775	`behaviour.`
		6776
		6777	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6778	`Version: JATS_2.54.0 Released: 22-Jun-06`
		6779	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6780	`Major changes:`
		6781	`* Removal of non-core deployment functionality from JATS.`
		6782	`Deployment package will be affected.`
		6783
		6784	`The build.pl file of deployment package will need to import deployment`
		6785	`support with a BuildPkgArchive directive. ie:`
		6786
		6787	`BuildPkgArchive ( 'deployfiles', '1.0.0.cr' );`
		6788
		6789	`This version of deployfiles contains the same functionality as that provided`
		6790	`by the previous version of JATS. Version 2 of this package will be the start`
		6791	`of a deployment system that will provide support for building InstallShield`
		6792	`packages.`
		6793
		6794	`* Deployment support utilities must be run under JATS`
		6795	`The environment required for the deployment support utilities is complex`
		6796	`and is provided by the JATS wrapper script.`
		6797
		6798	`This is a change in usage. Instead of running the program 'updatenodespec'`
		6799	`the user will need to run 'jats updatenodespec'`
		6800
		6801	`Minor changes:`
		6802	`* SubDir directive`
		6803	`Added a sanity test to detect the case when a 'SubDir' directive specifies`
		6804	`a directory from two different makefiles.`
		6805
		6806	`* Tools: Dependancy generator mkdepend`
		6807	`If an include file was referenced by a symbolic name, then the generated`
		6808	`dependancy information would be wrong for all but the first occurrence`
		6809	`of the file usage.`
		6810
		6811	`* New utility: jats_manifest`
		6812	`Used by the build system to generate and validate source files.`
		6813	`Beta Release: Windows only at the moment`
		6814
		6815	`* Unit tests under SOLARIS_sparc`
		6816	`The LD_LIBRARY_PATH has been modified to correctly pick up libraries`
		6817	`generated within the build and have been installed locally.`
		6818
		6819	`* Default behaviour of JATS the wrapper script`
		6820	`This has been changed. Previous unknown commands were passed to make.`
		6821	`In this release unknown comamnds will be treated a 'etool' commands and`
		6822	`will execute a JATS extended command.`
		6823
		6824
		6825	`Internal Changes:`
		6826	`* Code refactor`
		6827	`Created JatsEnv to encapsulate functionality that was multiply defined.`
		6828
		6829	`* Deployment utilities`
		6830	`The Perl module Ignorelist.pm and the .ccignore file`
		6831	`Changed the mechanism by which this module locates a .ccignore file.`
		6832	`The .ccignore file has been moved to the same directory as the module and`
		6833	`the module can locate the file.`
		6834
		6835	`Previously the module required an environment variable in order to locate`
		6836	`the file, which was in a fixed location anyway.`
		6837
		6838	`* JATS core`
		6839	`Removed the use of the environment variable PERLINC.`
		6840
		6841	`Better parsing of descpkg files.`
		6842
		6843	`* JATS core debugging: JatsError.pm`
		6844	`Allow control over the debug and verbose messages of specific programs`
		6845	`through the use of environment variables.`
		6846
		6847	`A program reporting errors as "name" can be controlled via environment`
		6848	`variables GBE_name_VERBOSE and GBE_name_DEBUG.`
		6849
		6850	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6851	`Modified the subdirectories transferred with this directive to include:`
		6852	`deployfiles - as used by the deployment system`
		6853	`tools/scripts - as used by perl based extensions`
		6854
		6855	`* Make environment`
		6856	`Extended the PERL5LIB path seen by perl programs executed under make to`
		6857	`include 'tools/script' directories that contain Perl Modules.`
		6858
		6859
		6860	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6861	`Version: JATS_2.53.2 Released: 13-Jun-06`
		6862	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6863	`Major changes:`
		6864	`* Deployment. GetMassInstId.rul (From George Christidis)`
		6865	`Added support for SILENT_MODE`
		6866
		6867
		6868	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6869	`Version: JATS_2.53.1 Released: Not release`
		6870	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6871
		6872	`Not Released.`
		6873	`This label waas used as a place keeper. This version was not used as a basis`
		6874	`for JATS_2.53.2. Its much closer to JATS_2.54.0.`
		6875
		6876
		6877	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6878	`Version: JATS_2.53.0 Released: 11-Apr-06`
		6879	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6880	`Major changes:`
		6881	`* Deployment Scripts: Release Manager Database Access`
		6882	`The mechanism for communicating with the Release Manager Database has been`
		6883	`radically replaced.`
		6884
		6885	`A test tool has been added to prove connectivity to Release Manager.`
		6886	`Usage:`
		6887	`jats etool test_rmconnection`
		6888
		6889	`The pervious scripts used DBI::ODBC to communicate with the Oracle`
		6890	`Database that contains Release Manager. There were a number of problems with`
		6891	`this solution:`
		6892	`- Required the installation of two Perl Modules`
		6893	`- Required the installation of an Oracle client`
		6894	`- Required the use of an ODBC bridge machine when used on Solaris`
		6895	`- Support for Perl within Oracle appears to be on the decline`
		6896
		6897	`The solutions uses a Java application and Java's jdbc. The oracle:thin`
		6898	`client is used as this does not require any installation or configuration in`
		6899	`order to work.`
		6900
		6901	`JATS overrides Perl's DBI package with a package of the same name, but`
		6902	`reduced functionality.`
		6903
		6904
		6905	`Minor changes:`
		6906	`* makefile.pl directive: SetValue`
		6907	`Added a '--' option to disable and enable parsing of options.`
		6908	`This allows a value with leading '--' to be set.`
		6909
		6910	`* makefile.pl directive: SetList`
		6911	`Added this directive to formalise the creation and processing of lists`
		6912	`within the makefiles.`
		6913	`Options:`
		6914	`--NoWarn Disable name clash warnings`
		6915	`--Project=xxxx[,xxxx]+ Add to list in selected projects`
		6916	`--Unique Add only if not already present`
		6917	`--Clear Clear list, before adding new items`
		6918	`--Append Append items to list (default)`
		6919	`-- Disable/Enable option parsing`
		6920	`Useage:`
		6921
		6922	`SetList ('*', 'LibList', 'lib1', 'lib2', '--Project=syd');`
		6923	`SharedLib ('*', 'MyDLL', @OBJS, @LibList );`
		6924
		6925	`* Makefile.pl directive: RunTest`
		6926	`Corrected the option of the --CopyIn=file option where the specified file`
		6927	`is not in the current directory.`
		6928
		6929	`* Jats Command: ant'`
		6930	`This command has been extended to make use of the -buildfile=xxxx option`
		6931	`to allow multiple buildfiles to be differentiated.`
		6932
		6933	`eg: jats -buildfile=MyPackage ant`
		6934
		6935	`* TOOLSET: DAFBR Compiler support`
		6936	`Modified the toolset to support an optimisation feature of the next`
		6937	`generation of the daf_br_compiler. These will be enabled if the major version`
		6938	`of the package containing the compiler is greater the "1". ie: 2.0.0.cr`
		6939
		6940	`* Interface helper files: set_XXXX.bat/.sh`
		6941	`Added provision to process user command arguments.`
		6942	`Thus`
		6943
		6944	`set_WIN32.bat prog`
		6945
		6946	`will set the WIN32 environment and run the command: prog`
		6947

		6949	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6950	`Version: JATS_2.52.2 Released: 30-Mar-06`
		6951	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6952	`Major changes:`
		6953
		6954	`Minor changes:`
		6955	`* Addressed issue with BUILDNAME, an internal variable.`
		6956	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user build.pl's they need to be`
		6957	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a project`
		6958	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		6959	`$(BUILDNAME) contains two or three space seperated fields - always`
		6960
		6961	`* m16c Toolset - MCRFirmware`
		6962	`Force the generation of .thx and payload files when the .bin files are`
		6963	`created. Previously this only occured in the packaging phase.`
		6964
		6965	`Internal changes:`
		6966	`* JATS toolsets`
		6967	`Added a feature to allow a toolset to flag additional files that get created`
		6968	`as a part of a "Prog". This allows a "Prog" definition to generate a`
		6969	`number of files, some which may be packaged.`
		6970
		6971	`Previously such files where only generated during the packaging phase. Now`
		6972	`they will be generated during the make_prog phase - with the other programs.`
		6973
		6974	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6975	`Version: JATS_2.52.1 Released: 29-Mar-06`
		6976	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6977	`Major changes:`
		6978	`* Jats command: etool`
		6979	`Extended to allow execution of deployment tools. This allows the deployment`
		6980	`tools to use the JATS core perl modules.`
		6981
		6982	`* Address issues with the use of BUILDVER and ScmBuildVer`
		6983	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user makefile.pl's they need to be`
		6984	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a projectt`
		6985	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		6986	`$(BUILDVERSION) contains the project extension - always`
		6987	`$ScmBuildVersion does not contain a project extension - always`
		6988
		6989	`Minor changes:`
		6990
		6991
		6992	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6993	`Version: JATS_2.52.0 Released: 27-Mar-06`
		6994	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6995	`Major changes:`
		6996	`* JATS environment variables`
		6997	`Added GBE_DPKG_STORE`
		6998	`Optionally addresses a dpkg_archive store. This is intended to allow`
		6999	`read only access to a remote repository. The GBE_DPKG_STORE will be`
		7000	`searched after GBE_DPKG. It will be searched last. JATS, be default,`
		7001	`will not publish packages in this repository.`
		7002
		7003	`Uses: Seed repository for a complete build`
		7004	`Remote repository`
		7005
		7006	`Added GBE_DPLY`
		7007	`Optionally addresses a Deployment Archive. This is only used in the`
		7008	`placement of deployment packages. This value may be project specific.`
		7009
		7010	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		7011	`Changes the mechanism used to link against the compiler RTL.`
		7012	`Previously the RTL was included multiple times in the link order. This`
		7013	`created problem with daf_dsi as the function 'time()' was being satisfied by`
		7014	`the RTL before being satisfied by the user libraries.`
		7015
		7016	`The compiler RTL is now treated as a library of last resort. It will be`
		7017	`processed once and it will be processed last.`
		7018
		7019
		7020	`Minor changes:`
		7021	`* JATS utility: build`
		7022	`* JATS utility: cache_dpkg`
		7023	`Extended the package search algorithm to locate a package within`
		7024	`GBE_DPKG_STORE. This archive will be searched last.`
		7025
		7026	`* JATS utility: gen_cots`
		7027	`Ensure label is not locked`
		7028	`Add option to allow user to specify source directory other than a package`
		7029	`that already exists in dpkg_archive.`
		7030
		7031	`* JATS directive: PackageFile`
		7032	`Now supports --Prod and --Debug options to limit the packaging process`
		7033	`to a specific type of build.`
		7034
		7035	`* JATS directive: GenerateFiles and RunTests`
		7036	`Added a --PackageInfo() replacement tag to allow package version information`
		7037	`to be extracted and passed to generator programs.`
		7038	`ie: --PackageInfo(sysbasetypes,syd,--fullversion)`
		7039
		7040	`Extended the --PackageBase() replacement tag to work with packages such as`
		7041	`sysbasetypes, where there is a .cr and a .syd type.`
		7042	`ie: --PackageBase(sysbasetypes,syd)`
		7043
		7044	`* JATS utility: release`
		7045	`Under windows, ensure that the directory C:\Clearcase exists. There have`
		7046	`been installations of Clearcase where this is directory does not exist.`
		7047
		7048	`* JATS utility: label`
		7049	`Added option: "-comment=Text" to allow a comment to be added to a label,`
		7050	`when it is being created.`
		7051
		7052	`Internal Changes`
		7053	`* JATS utility: create_dpkg`
		7054	`Refactored code to use JATS DescPkg class.`
		7055
		7056	`Added options to allow packaging to the various archives. This is of no use`
		7057	`to the normal developer, but will be used within the complete build system.`
		7058
		7059	`* Factored out the parsing of the BuildName directive`
		7060	`This process was being done in 3 locations - and there were getting`
		7061	`different results.`
		7062
		7063	`* ToolsetRequire directive`
		7064	`This has been extended to allow JATS to locate Toolset extensions within`
		7065	`packages. They should be placed within the tool/scripts directory`
		7066
		7067	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7068	`Version: JATS_2.51.0 Released: 15-Mar-06`
		7069	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7070	`Major changes:`
		7071
		7072	`* MCR toolset`

		7074
		7075	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7076	`Version: JATS_2.50.0 Released: 15-Feb-06`
		7077	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7078	`Major changes:`
		7079	`* WIN32 utilities`
		7080	`Replaced a number of the Windows utilities ( cp, rm, mv ...)`
		7081	`with versions from the GNUWin32 project.`
		7082
		7083	`The 'cp' previously used could not recursively copy large directories`
		7084	`under Windows Server 2003, when both the source and destination are on the`
		7085	`same drive. ( dpkg_cache of ace ).`
		7086
		7087	`Minor changes:`
		7088	`* BuildVersion`
		7089	`The definition of VERSION_BUILD within the generated version-defs.h file`
		7090	`will have leading zeros removed, thus allowing it to be used within a 'C'`
		7091	`program without the number being interpreted as an octal constant.`
		7092
		7093	`The string form (VERSION_BUILD_STR) will retain the zeros.`
		7094
		7095	`* Unix Builds`
		7096	`Corrected several issues encountered when specifying the name of a static`
		7097	`library or a shared library.`
		7098
		7099	`JATS will prepend 'lib' to the user specified library name. Problems occurred`
		7100	`when the user specified a library name that started with 'lib'. Now, on Unix`
		7101	`systems, JATS will only prepend 'lib' if the library name does not already`
		7102	`start with 'lib'.`
		7103
		7104	`* BuildPkgArchive`
		7105	`Since 2.45.0 JATS will only transfer files for the BuildPkgArchive, if`
		7106	`they have not already been transferred. Added a test for the source`
		7107	`package being updated and then forceing the copy to be repeated.`
		7108
		7109	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7110	`Version: JATS_2.49.0 Released: 10-Feb-06`
		7111	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7112	`Major changes:`
		7113	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		7114	`Corrected a problem with the dependencies between a .REL file and the target`
		7115	`THX file. If the .REL files was modified the output THX file did not get`
		7116	`regenerated. This was only a problem in cases where the .REL file was`
		7117	`being manually maintained.`
		7118
		7119
		7120	`Minor changes:`
		7121	`* MakeAnt directive`
		7122	`Introduced a check to ensure that this directive is only used with a toolset`
		7123	`that can handle an 'ant' build file. Currently only the JAVA toolset`
		7124	`supports ANT builds.`
		7125
		7126	`* BuildPkgArchive directive`
		7127	`Correct problem in the caching of BuildPkgArchive packages in the case where`
		7128	`there is no GBE_DPKG_LOCAL on the machine.`
		7129
		7130	`* Label utility`
		7131	`Added a 'files=filename,filename' option to allow only specified`
		7132	`files to be labeled.`
		7133
		7134	`* Build. Parsing descpkg files`
		7135	`Corrected problem in which Java Manifest files were not parsed correctly`
		7136	`on Solaris.`
		7137
		7138	`* Generated makefiles`
		7139	`Fix a bug with the CompilerOptions that allowed a '0' definition to be set to`
		7140	`nothing.`
		7141
		7142	`* MOS Toolset`
		7143	`Added 'CompileOptions' of CcSupervisor.`
		7144	`This will set a MOS internal definition suitable for building specialised`
		7145	`modules.`
		7146
		7147	`* Utility: gen_cots`
		7148	`This utility will create a JATS buildable package froma dpkg_archive entry`
		7149	`and then check it in under clearcase.`
		7150
		7151	`JATS etool gen_cots -man will provide only help.`
		7152
		7153	`* Utilty cache_dpkg`
		7154	`Detect and repair incomplete copy operations.`
		7155

		7158	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7159	`Major changes:`
		7160	`None`
		7161
		7162	`Minor changes:`
		7163	`* DEVI addressed`
		7164	`DEVI-022055 JATS builds DLLs with wrong copyright symbol in version resource`
5710	dpurdie	7165	`DEVI-022054 JATS puts "VIX Group test" in Product Name of Windows resource`
227	dpurdie	7166
		7167	`* Utility: release (cbuild)`
		7168	`Added an option to create a view configured to work with a branching`
		7169	`rule. A single branch can be named with the -branch option. eg:`
		7170
		7171	`jats release -extract 'label' -branch SITS_LEGACY_BRANCH`
		7172
		7173	`will create a view based on the named label, but suitable for creating`
		7174	`a patch for Sydney Legacy work.`
		7175
		7176	`* RunTest directive`
		7177	`The 'PATH' that the test uses is extended to allow access to programs that have`
		7178	`been installed with a InstallProg directive. This allows a test script to`
		7179	`test a program that is generated elsewhere within the package.`
		7180
		7181	`* PackageFile, Option --DirTree`
		7182	`Support for filenames that contain a "$" or a ' ' within the`
		7183	`--DirTree option. Implemented to allow entire JAVA class trees to be`
		7184	`packaged under JATS`
		7185
		7186	`Note: In general the use of a $ and space within a filename is not`
		7187	`supported within JATS.`
		7188
		7189	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7190	`Added an eprog option. The allows any program to be run within the`
		7191	`sanitized environment provided by JATS.`
		7192
		7193	`The specified program may be in the current directory or the user's`
		7194	`PATH. If the program is a perl script then it will be run with the`
		7195	`JATS perl interpreter, otherwise it will be processed by the system.`
		7196
		7197	`Eg: jats eprog myscript arg1 arg2`
		7198	`Eg: jats ant`
		7199
		7200	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7201	`Added an 'ant' command. ( "jats ant" )`
		7202
5710	dpurdie	7203	`This will run an VIX ANT build by scanning the current directory for a file`
227	dpurdie	7204	`called <ProjectName>depends.xml and then looking the a file called`
		7205	`<ProjectName>.xml. Jats will then create 'auto.xml' based on the`
		7206	`<ProjectName>depends.xml file and use ant to invoke the`
		7207	`<ProjectName>.xml file.`
		7208
5710	dpurdie	7209	`If the VIX build files cannot be found then ant is simply run and it will`
227	dpurdie	7210	`expect a build.pl file.`
		7211
		7212	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7213	`Force the environment variable PERL5INC to be unset.`
		7214
		7215	`* Jats utility: create_dpkg`
		7216	`Simplify handling of ANT based projects. Look for the package within`
		7217	`the build/pkg subdirectory, in the JANTS style.`
		7218
		7219	`* Utility: gen_winrc (DEVI-022054)`
		7220	`Added a "'-product=text'" option to allow the product name to be specified.`
		7221
		7222	`* Build files`
		7223	`Handle the java generated descpkg files. These are a Manifest format with`

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

		7509	`Major changes:`
		7510	`* RunTest directive`
		7511	`Extended the options and operation of RunTest`
		7512	`Additional options`
		7513	`--CopyIn=file`
		7514	`This will copy the specified file into the BIN directory before`
		7515	`the test is run. The file will be marked as executable. This`
		7516	`allows scripts and configuration files to be transferred into`
		7517	`the test area.`
		7518
		7519	`Additional operations`
		7520	`The arguments passed to the script/program allow a number of`
		7521	`transformations, similar to GenerateFiles. Transforms`
		7522	`--File(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a known file`
		7523	`--Local(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a file that has been Installed`
		7524	`--PackageBase(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a Package`
		7525	`Allows flags:`
		7526	`--dir - directory part of the pathname`
		7527	`--file - file part of the pathname`
		7528	`--abspath - as an absolute path`
		7529	`--absdrive - as an absolute path with drive letter (Windows)`
		7530
		7531	`Files and directories are prerequisites of the test. Their`
		7532	`existence is tested.`
		7533
		7534	`* Packaging Directives`
		7535	`Added a --Derived option to support the packaging of derived targets`
		7536	`such as LMOS.`
		7537
		7538	`PackageHdr ('*', 'file1.h', '--Derived=LMOS');`
		7539

		7545
		7546	`* JAVA 1.4 and 1.5`
		7547	`Added support to the JATS JAVA platform to allow the user to specify`
		7548	`the version of Java to be used to build a package.`
		7549
		7550	`BuildPlatforms ( 'JAVA,--Version=1.5' );`
		7551
		7552	`The default will use the default machine version of JAVA.`
		7553	`This may not be sutable for all packages.`
		7554
		7555	`Non-default versions of JAVA require that an environment variable be`
		7556	`set to the root of the JDK directory. These are:`
		7557
		7558	`JAVA_HOME_1_4`
		7559	`JAVA_HOME_1_5`
		7560
		7561	`Minor changes:`
		7562	`* Script directive`

		7564	`These scripts are now always marked as executable.`
		7565
		7566	`* JATS environment`
		7567	`Ensure that all programs run under JATS in Windows have an uppercase`
		7568	`COMSPEC envvar. Windows appears to define a mixed case one. Fixed in`
		7569	`the JATS wrapper script.`
		7570
		7571	`* Label utility`
		7572	`Added -[no]checkout to control the labeling of checked out files.`
		7573	`There are three modes of operation:`
		7574	`1) -nocheckout Checked out files are not labeled`

		7587	`This options retains the locked state of a label.`
		7588
		7589	`* AVR_IAR toolset`
		7590	`Extended the 'Prog' directive to allow a Program Loader to be`
		7591	`added to a program as it is created. The option is:`
		7592	`--ProgLoader=name`
		7593
		7594	`* Package directives. PackageFile`
		7595	`Added support for packaging of directory trees.`

		7600	`--StripDir`
		7601
		7602	`Only a single directory can be specified.`
		7603	`Multiple filters are allowed.`
		7604	`The directories must be within the current directory. It is not`
		7605	`possible to search outside the subdirectory tree below the makefile.`
		7606
		7607	`The filters allow elements within the directory to be selected.`
		7608	`The filters are regular expressions. Examples:`
		7609
		7610	`'--FilterIn=\.h$' - Select all files ending with .h`
		7611	`'--FilterOut=MyHeader.h' - Except this one`
		7612
		7613	`The --StripDir option will remove the TreeDir directory from the`
		7614	`files. This allows the top level directory to be stripped off.`
		7615
		7616
		7617	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7618	`Version: JATS_2.39.0 Released: 14-Sep-05`
		7619	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7620	`Major changes:`
		7621	`* Make commands`
		7622	`Consolidated the parsing of the OPTIONS arguments.`
		7623
		7624	`The filter and nofilter options are globally applied to all tools`
		7625	`sets. ie: jats make debug OPTIONS=nofilter`
		7626

		7634	`variables and overrides.`
		7635

		7639
		7640	`* Deployment`
		7641	`Suppress testing of compiler existence when used in conjunction`
		7642	`with deployment operations.`
		7643
		7644	`* Release utility`
		7645	`Add options to build only the debug or the production versions.`
		7646	`The default is to build both. Note: User option may be further`
		7647	`restricted by options within the build.`
		7648
		7649	`* PackageLib, InstallLib and MergeLib directives in makefile.pl`
		7650	`The use of @LIBS and @MLIBS in unix systems was causing a`
		7651	`problem as these variables already had a 'lib' prepended to the`
		7652	`list of libraries. These directives would add another 'lib' to the`
		7653	`list of libraries under unix causing a mismatch.`
		7654
		7655	`Corrected by stripping liblib from the names within these`
		7656	`directives.`
		7657
		7658	`* MakeProject directive`
		7659	`If the project build fails the log file was not being displayed`
		7660	`because 'make' stops when a command fails.`
		7661
		7662	`The MakeProject operations have been modified to ensure that the`
		7663	`log file is always displayed. The exit code of the build command`

		7702	`directory.`
		7703
		7704	`The need to use this this switch indicates that the view is NOT`

		7944	`* Support for Windows DLLs`
		7945	`When building a WIN32 target the file interface/set_WIN32.bat is`

		8028	`If whitespace did exist then the makefile.pl would not do what`

		8031
		8032	`* GenerateFiles directive within makefile.pl`
		8033	`Allow 3 different bracket styles for the arguments to allow for`

		8184	`The process of creating a Shared Libraries creates a soft link`
		8185	`to the the "GBEBIN" directory. This directory was not listed as`

		8187	`corrected.`
		8188
		8189	`* JATS will detect an "auto.pl" file and use it as an alternate`
		8190	`build.pl file. Previously this file was named build.use.pl.`
		8191

		8226
		8227	`* Preliminary Support`
		8228	`Global build options of --OnlyDebug and --OnlyProd, which are`

		8236	`These options limit processing to either Production or Debug`
		8237	`building. The default build will build both.`
		8238
		8239	`Minor changes:`
		8240	`* Extended the search path that JATS will use attempting to locate`

		8278
		8279	`Minor changes:`
		8280	`* create_dpkg utility`

		8480	`Major changes:`
		8481	`* Modified the order in which the makefiles passes operate. Merged`
		8482	`the make_shlib and the install_shlib into one phase. The`
		8483	`implication of this is that Shared Libraries that are created can`
		8484	`"installed" so that other shared libraries can link against them.`
		8485	`The order in which the makefile.pl's are processed is important as`

		8501	`first directory named with a BuildDir directive, unless a`

		8530	`Mutual DLL support corrected. Library path is used to resolve`
		8531	`compiler specific libraries.`
		8532
		8533	`* SOLARIS toolset`
		8534	`Prevent the compiler displaying its command line. This is in line`
		8535	`with the other tools sets. The commands can be seen with`
		8536	`OPTIONS=args and this may be set in the users environment.`
		8537
		8538	`Modified the cleanup process to delete the links to shared`
		8539	`libraries. Only files, and not links to files, where being`

		8554	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		8555	`The entire "include" directory is copied into the interface area`
		8556	`The installer was trying to be too smart and only copy platform`
		8557	`specific files,but was missing out many needed subdirectories`

		8559	`Reduce the warnings generated. These were an artifact of the process`
		8560	`of picking up all the strange variations of the directory structures.`

		8562	`* Cleaned up the handling of object files that were generated by the`
		8563	`user.`

		8602	`2) The operation of --Platform=xxx when used by the PackageFile`
		8603	`directive now treats the xxx directory as a prefix to the`
		8604	`platform name. Other Package directives still treat it as a`
		8605	`suffix. In practice this is the logical use.`
		8606
		8607	`* Allow InstallLib and PackageLib to install a file that has been`
		8608	`discovered with a "Src" directive. This allows generated files`

		8615	`entry will be deleted and the master archive will not be accessed.`
		8616
		8617	`* label utility`
		8618	`New option -auto to create and label`
		8619
		8620	`* Build WIN32 and WinCe Mutual DLLs with all the object files`
		8621	`This allows the generated import library to contain C++ names`
		8622
		8623	`* The BuildDirTree directive now supports an empty first argument`
		8624	`This allows a NULL tree.dir file, while still creating the root`
		8625	`directory. ie:`
		8626
		8627	`BuildDirTree ( '', 'pkg' );`
		8628
		8629	`* Fixed DEVIM 00019520`
		8630	`The problem was that /bin/pwd could return a different path to`
		8631	`the Cwd:getpwd() function. Solution: Use one mechanism throughout.`

		8633
		8634	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8635	`Version: JATS_2.9.0 Released: 28-Feb-05`
		8636	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8637	`Major changes:`
		8638	`* First release for Back Office and Front Office use.`
		8639
		8640	`* Added the jats tool jats_rewrite.pl to rewrite build.pl files.`
		8641	`To be used by the nightly build process.`
		8642
		8643	`* Work around a problem in the Microtec 68K compiler.`
		8644	`The compiler uses temp files. If the temp file name that the`
		8645	`compiler uses already exists, then the compiler will not delete`
		8646	`the file. Instead it appends information to the existing file.`
		8647
		8648	`The workaround is to create the temp files within the build's`
		8649	`interface directory and to remove all temp files before each`
		8650	`compilation.`
		8651
		8652	`This bug does not affect the Mictotec CF compiler.`
		8653
		8654	`Minor changes:`
		8655	`* The "jats clobber" command will remove version definition file, if`
		8656	`one is being produced.`
		8657
		8658	`* Using JATS within a Visual Studio project. The "rebuild all"`
		8659	`option now translates to the JATS unbuild command to do a better`
		8660	`job of cleaning the workspace.`
		8661
		8662	`* Added GetPackageRoot() directive to support the packaging of MOS`
		8663
		8664	`* Generate error message for misuse of the SubDir directive`
		8665
		8666	`* Modified BuildName to allow an '-' in the name.`
		8667	`This provides backward compatibility with existing packages.`
		8668
		8669	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8670	`Version: JATS_2.8.0 Released: 17-Feb-05`
		8671	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8672	`Major changes:`
		8673	`* Added some new WINCE based targets. These require WINCE SDKs to be`
		8674	`installed in order for the compilers to work.`
		8675
		8676	`* New PLATFORMS are WCEIT3000, WCEPA961 and WCEPCM7220`
		8677
		8678	`* All invocations of xmake specify the name of the makefile`
		8679	`This allow GNUMakefiles and the Jats makefiles to exist in the`
		8680	`same directory`
		8681
		8682	`* Overcome a limitation of the Microtec compiler in which the flag`
		8683	`_DEBUG is defined enev in production builds - contrary to the`
		8684	`documenattion.`
		8685
		8686	`Minor changes:`
		8687	`* Process of descpkg files allows for both Unix and DOS line endings`
		8688	`Under Unix JATS would report that the package names don't match`
		8689
		8690	`* Corrected a problem with BuildPkgArchive in which file names with`
		8691	`spaces could not be soft linked. Only affects Unix systems.`
		8692
		8693	`* Added a -rename to the "jats label" utility.`
		8694	`Ensure that the user specified label exists in the VOB`
		8695
		8696	`* Correct problem with "make clean" that resulted in a verbose display`
		8697	`when the verbose option had not been selected`
		8698
		8699	`* Correct a problem with "make unbuild". Changes in the build files`
		8700	`would prevent the execution of the command. This command should`
		8701	`be exempt from this test.`
		8702
		8703	`* Correct a problem with "make clean" in the WIN32 and WINCE`
		8704	`platforms where the .exp files were not deleted.`
		8705
		8706	`* The "JATS clobber" command now invokes "make clobber" and "build`
		8707	`clobber". The result is as clean a clean as it can be.`
		8708
		8709	`Note: Jats "clean" does not remove a lot of files. These can be`
		8710	`removed with "unbuild" and "unpackage". This is what "clobber"`
		8711	`does.`
		8712
		8713	`* The operation of "build clobber" has been cleaned up. It will`
		8714	`not try to invoke make if the makefiles have already been removed.`
		8715
		8716
		8717	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8718	`Version: JATS_2.7.0 Released: 09-Feb-05`
		8719	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8720	`Major changes:`
		8721	`* First release with support for the DAFBR compiler`
		8722
		8723	`* Extended MergeLibrary. Added per-file options of:`
		8724	`--Interface - Pull lib from Interface directory`
		8725	`--Local - Pull lib from Local directory (default)`
		8726	`--SubDir=pathname - Pull lib from a subdirectory`
		8727	`Note: xxxx,pathname still works`
		8728
		8729	`* Added "jats label" to provide a number of useful labeling`
		8730	`operations.`
		8731
		8732	`* Added extensive help to JATS. JATS -man.`
		8733
		8734	`* Added this manual ChangeLog file`
		8735
		8736	`Minor changes`
		8737	`* Added an 'ebin' command to jats to allow the JATS binary tools to`
		8738	`be run in a controlled environment from the command line.`
		8739
		8740	`* Prune the list of library paths passed through to the various`
		8741	`toolsets. If a directory does not have any files in it then the`
		8742	`directory is not added to the library path.`
		8743
		8744	`Thus if a library is located in xxxx/lib/WIN32 then JATS will`
		8745	`not add the xxxx/lib to the path.`
		8746
		8747	`* cbuilder will now look in all VOBs for the user specified label.`
		8748	`The program has a list of "known" labels which it will search`
		8749	`first in an attempt to speed up the process.`
		8750
		8751	`* The AddFlags directive will issue a warning if the flags does not`
		8752	`begin with a -D or a -U. The user should not be using compiler`
		8753	`specific flags.`
		8754
		8755	`* The use of linker flags will issue a warning.`
		8756
		8757	`* Process the common makefile.pl after the toolset has been`
		8758	`determined. This allows the toolset to extend the CompileOptions`
		8759	`such they are available to the common makefile.pl.`
		8760
		8761	`* Added the WIN32 CompileOptions "jats_v1" to force JATS to specify`
		8762	`a number of compile time definitions used by earlier versions of`
		8763	`JATS.`
		8764
		8765	`* Fixed bug in the --Debug option to the PackageProg directives that`
		8766	`caused both the production and debug versions to be packaged.`
		8767
		8768	`* The gen_msproject utility now creates simpler names for the MS`
		8769	`projects that it creates. The name no longer contains the full`
		8770	`pathname, thus making them shorter and readable.`
		8771
		8772	`* The ShowDlls utility now handles absolute and relative paths to`
		8773	`the initial DLL or EXE.`
		8774
		8775	`* Correct problem in which the use of Generate/Rule directives may`
		8776	`fail since prerequisite subdirectories were not being created`
		8777	`since the "generate" phase was not being run.`
		8778
		8779	`Added messages to prompt the user to remove Generate, Generated`
		8780	`and Rule directives. Use the GenerateFiles directive`
		8781
		8782	`* JATS.BAT file will exclude LINUX builds by default.`
		8783
		8784	`* The make NODEPEND=1 processing now does not recurse at all.`
		8785	`Previously each subdirectory was visited - only to do nothing.`
		8786
		8787	`* Correct a problem in creating stub libraries for MOS targets if`
		8788	`the stub library object was not listed with the SharedLib's`
		8789	`objects.`
		8790
		8791	`* Correct a problem with the MS Studio support. The invoked make`
		8792	`command is XXX_all_debug. There was a problem with this command in`
		8793	`that it did not do any dependancy checking and would not always`
		8794	`build defendants.`
