		3551	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		3552	`Major changes:`
		3553	`* New Utility: upddep - Update Dependencies`
		3554	`This utility will update the dependencies in a build.pl file to be`
		3555	`consistent with those of a given Release Manager Release. This simplifies`
		3556	`the operation of maintain build files during development.`
		3557
		3558	`It will create an 'auto.pl' file, which JATS uses in preference to a`
		3559	`build.pl file. DO NOT check this file in.`
		3560
		3561	`See: 'jats upddep -help' - For brief help`
		3562	`'jats upddep -man' - For full manual`
		3563
		3564	`Examples:`
		3565	`jats upddep -show`
		3566	`jats upddep -show=vtk`
		3567	`jats upddep -rtag=6684`
		3568
		3569	`* MicroTec Compiler toolset`
		3570	`When creating a ShardLibrary (THX) report missing libraries before`
		3571	`compiling the objects that go into the THX.`
		3572
		3573	`This ensures that the error messages the describe the missing library`
		3574	`can be seen and are not masked by the building of the objects.`
		3575
		3576	`Minor changes:`
		3577
		3578	`Internal changes:`

		3584	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		3585	`Major changes:`
		3586	`* Makefile directive helper function: If`
		3587	`Used within another directive to enable or disable arguments passed to the`
		3588	`outer directive. The first argument is a 'platform' specifier - as in`
		3589	`all Jats Make directives. If making for the specified platform, then the`
		3590	`remainder of the arguments are inserted into the directives argument`
		3591	`stream.`
		3592
		3593	`Example:`
		3594
		3595	`SharedLib ( '*', 'mySharedLib', @OBJS`
		3596	`, If ('WIN32', '-llibrary1', '-llibrary2' )`

		3600	`* Makefile directive: InstallLibs`
		3601	`Correctly installs, as libraries, files that are specified with a 'Src'`
		3602	`directive. This is consistent with the operation of the PackageLibs`
		3603	`directive.`
		3604
		3605	`* GCC Toolkit`
		3606	`Changes to the shared library dependency processing to bring it inline`
		3607	`with other toolers. Will terminate after determining that some`
		3608	`libraries cannot be found. This will ensure that the error message is at`
		3609	`the point of termination.`
		3610
		3611	`* Jats save_build utility`
		3612	`Corrected problem in unreserving a reserved checkout of a build.pl file`
		3613	`under windows.`
		3614
		3615	`* Jats sandbox`
		3616	`ClearCase views created with in the sandbox are created with a tag that`
		3617	`is named after the sandbox. This allows multiple instances of a view`
		3618	`in different sandboxes.`
		3619

		3635	`Improved handling of the -file and -dir options`
		3636	`These options will now label the directory elements within the paths`
		3637	`specified by these options, when used in conjunction with the -up option.`
		3638	`This simplified the process of labeling complex directory structures.`
		3639
		3640	`Added -admin, to allow creation of global labels`

		3655
		3656	`* Solaris targets`
		3657	`Full support for a target called SOLARIS8_SPARC32`
		3658	`It is identical to SOLARIS in a 'sparc' build machine, but it is only`
		3659	`available on a 'sparc' build machine. Can be used to limit builds to one`
		3660	`machine type.`

		3684
		3685	`* Solaris 10, 64 Bit Sparc Builds`
		3686	`All compiles are done in a position independent manner (-KPIC)`
		3687	`This solved issues where static libraries are linked into shared`
		3688	`libraries.`
		3689
		3690	`* Solaris builds`
		3691	`Program and Shared library dependency checking is now done before`
		3692	`the program/library objects are built. Thus errors associated with missing`
		3693	`dependencies occur before objects are built and the user can see the cause`
		3694	`of the build failure.`
		3695
		3696
		3697	`Internal changes:`

		3761	`Useful side effects include:`

309	dpurdie	3814	`The cmdfile utility creates paths with file path separators as discovered`
307	dpurdie	3815	`in the PATH EnvVar. Now that PATH is nice it means that the use of cmdfile`

289	dpurdie	4006	`Version: 2.79.0000.cr Released: 10-Jun-09`
		4007	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		4008	`Major changes:`
		4009	`* New Platform: DELPHI7`
		4010	`Support the creation of Units,Libraries, Packages and Programs using`
		4011	`Borlands Delphi Version 7.`
		4012
		4013	`See Jats Reference Manual for complete details and Delphi specific options`
		4014	`to the Prog and SharedLib directives.`
		4015
		4016	`This toolset has a number of limitations:`
		4017	`1) It can build either Debug or Production, but not both, in a single`
		4018	`makefile.pl. This is caused by the Delphi limitation that library`
		4019	`names cannot be changed.`
		4020
		4021	`2) The generation of dependencies between the source and the generated`
		4022	`artifacts is very simplistic.`
		4023
		4024	`Units are generated with the 'Lib' directive. The name of the Unit and the`
		4025	`name of the source are linked. The source should not be provided.`
		4026	`ie: Lib ('*', 'MyUnit' );`
		4027	`Will create a unit called MyUnit.dcu from the source file 'MyUnit.pas'`
		4028
		4029	`Packages are generated with the SharedLib directive starting with a .dpk`
		4030	`file.`
		4031	`ie: SharedLib ( '*', 'MyPackage' );`
		4032	`will create a package called MyPackage.bpl/dcp from the source file`
		4033	`MyPackage.dpk.`
		4034
		4035	`Libraries are generated with the SharedLib directive starting with a .dpr`
		4036	`file.`
		4037	`ie: SharedLib ( '*', 'MyDll' );`
		4038	`will create a package called MyDll.dll/lib from the source file`
		4039	`MyDll.dpr.`
		4040
		4041	`Programs are generated with the Prog directive starting with a .dpr`
		4042	`file.`
		4043	`ie: Prog ( '*', 'MyProg' );`
		4044	`will create a package called MyProg.exe from the source file`
		4045	`MyProg.dpr.`
		4046
		4047	`Minor changes:`
		4048	`* New EnvVar: DELPHI7`
		4049	`Required only if Borland Delphi 7 has not being installed in the`
		4050	`standard location or if the Windows Short Name is not`
		4051	`c:\PROGRA~1\Borland\Delphi7`
		4052
		4053	`* BuildVersion directive`
		4054	`Added a 'Style' of 'Delphi' to allow the generation of version information`
		4055	`in a Delphi Unit.`
		4056
		4057	`Modified the operation of the "C" style generation.`
		4058	`If the name of the file is provided via '--File', then the generated files`
		4059	`will be 'known' to JATS and can be consumed from any makefile. JATS will`
		4060	`'know' the location of the files.`
		4061
		4062	`* Sanity test on the names of libraries and programs`
		4063	`Some characters are not allowed: ie: '/' as this is a mistake.`
		4064
		4065	`Internal Changes:`
		4066	`* ToolsetSHLD functions`
		4067	`Pass in the shared library version string as an argument`
		4068	`Means that the core of JATS can manage this information in a manner`
		4069	`that is decoupled from the toolsets.`
		4070
		4071	`* Reworked the mechanism used to hold data about libraries, shared libraries`
		4072	`merged libraries and programs. Created a class to manipulate build targets`
		4073	`and to maintain information about the contents of the targets.`

287	dpurdie	4085
289	dpurdie	4086	`NOTE: Windows users will need to update their JATS.BAT file in order`

287	dpurdie	4089
		4090	`Minor changes:`
		4091	`* The jats option '-noexportvars' deletes selected JATS EnvVars from the`

277	dpurdie	4152
279	dpurdie	4153	`JATS will automatically filter out target platforms that cannot be built`
		4154	`on the users machine. ie: It will not try to build Solaris targets on a`
		4155	`Windows machine. Thus, under the new scheme a Windows GBE_BUILDFILTER need`
281	dpurdie	4156	`not contain '!SOLARIS'`
279	dpurdie	4157
		4158	`This greatly simplifies the creation of GBE_BUILDFILTER as it does not`

		4176	`Added build, make, clean, clobber commands`
		4177
		4178	`Sandbox packages may contain a file called 'stop', to exclude the`
		4179	`target from consideration in the build set.`
		4180
		4181	`* MCR Toolset`
		4182	`This toolset only supports 16 compiler search paths. An descriptive error`

		4204	`it contains 'jar' files.`
		4205
		4206	`Uses ANT 1.6 as the default version of ANT`
		4207
		4208	`Both changes will simplify the use of this command within the escrow`
		4209	`environment. ie: 'jats abt -buildfile=build1.xml'`
		4210
		4211	`* BuildVersion directive`

		5143	`* Jats Tool: CCbc2`
		5144	`Added utility to use BeyondCompare (BC2) to compare files in two`
		5145	`packages defined as ClearCase labels. The utility creates two dynamic views`
		5146	`and starts BeyondCompare. The views are destroyed at the end of the`
		5147	`process.`
		5148
		5149	`Requires BeyondCompare to be installed in its default location.`

		5157	`* Jats test runtime helper scripts set_PLATFORM.bat`

		5205	`Added a run-time test for the presence of the required toolset`
		5206	`This will report an error if the required WINCE toolset has not been`

		5210	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		5211	`If the generating tool can only be found in the users path, don't make`

		5371	`Programs that are created with 'misalign' will automatically include the`

		5375	`Make and generation of subdirectories`

		5380	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5381	`Version: 2.71.0.cr Released: 10-Oct-07`
		5382	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5383	`Major changes:`
		5384	`Makefile generation and make recursion`
		5385	`Extensive changes to the makefiles that are generated by JATS and method by`
		5386	`which JATS recuses through subdirectories during a build.`
		5387
		5388	`Summary of changes:`
		5389	`- Removed the use of 'make' to perform recursion over subdirectories`
		5390	`and platforms. This has been replaced by a JATS program that performs`
		5391	`the same task - only a great deal faster and with a greater scope for`
		5392	`flexibility.`
		5393
		5394	`The user interface remains identical: jats make ....`
		5395
		5396	`- Replaced the generated 'Makefile' with 'Makefile.gbe'. This is a text`
		5397	`file that provides sufficient information to allow JATS to locate the`
		5398	`interface directory and associated build information.`
		5399
		5400	`- Significant speed up in determining the need to rebuild a makefile.`
		5401	`On a large package this has been reduced from 30+ seconds to less`
		5402	`than one second.`
		5403
		5404	`- Significant speed up of large recursive builds through intelligent`
		5405	`building of the 'make_init' target. This is only processed once for`
		5406	`each platform type. Previously it was processed in each and every`
		5407	`makefile. This make target is used, internally, to perform sanity`
		5408	`testing of the compiler environment and to display the name of the`
		5409	`toolset. It is an expensive operation.`
		5410
		5411	`- Intelligent speed up of large recursive through better mechanism`
		5412	`for creating required directories. These are now created on the fly,`
		5413	`rather than via a slow recursive pass though all makefiles.`
		5414
		5415	`- Better makefile rebuilding`
		5416	`Makefiles can be rebuilt on the fly. The previous system was prone to`
		5417	`detecting that makefiles needs to be re-built, but then not re-`
		5418	`building them.`
		5419
		5420	`- Detection of build file changes`
		5421	`The make process will detect that the build file has been modified`
		5422	`and that the component has not been rebuilt. This is a warning. It`
		5423	`does not prevent the 'make' operation.`
		5424
		5425	`- Quieter make output`
		5426	`The 'Nothing to be done' message has been disabled.`
		5427
		5428
		5429	`Minor changes:`
		5430	`MakeAnt Directive`
		5431	`Allows ANT_HOME to be a path with spaces. ie: c:\Program Files\apache-ant-1.6.5`
		5432
		5433	`JATS command "debug" and "prod"`
		5434	`These now handle make arguments and options correctly. Thus the command:`
		5435	`jats prod WIN32 OPTIONS=args`
		5436	`Will correctly do a production build for WIN32 with command execution`
		5437	`display. Before, the system would attempt to process prod_OPTIONS=args.`
		5438
		5439	`CSHARP toolset`
		5440	`Correctly detect missing compiler directories`

		5452	`If the Ant build fails JATS will terminate.`
		5453	`Previously JATS would continue until another error forced its termination.`

		5532	`Major changes:`
		5533
		5534	`Minor changes:`
		5535	`* Reverted changes made in JATS_2.68.1 to the library search path`
		5536	`Although the search order is broken, we will need to live with it.`
		5537
		5538	`Addressed the search order of /usr/lib under Solaris by adding a new`
		5539	`AddLibDir option (--System) to add system paths. These will be searched`
		5540	`last.`
		5541
		5542	`For the record, the search order for header files and libraries is:`
		5543
		5544	`1) As specified with AddIncDir/AddLibDir in the local makefile.pl`

		5547	`2) Within the components 'local' directories. These are populated with`

		5567	`Major changes:`
		5568
		5569	`Minor changes:`
		5570	`* Solaris Toolset`
		5571	`Corrected library search order, such that /usr/lib is search after the`
		5572	`dependent packages.`
		5573
		5574	`* RunTest operation`

		5580	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5581	`Version: JATS_2.68.0 Released: 20-Aug-07`
		5582	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5583	`Major changes:`
		5584	`* Trap use of uncontrolled versions of 'ant' and the Java Compiler (javac)`
		5585
		5586	`It was discovered that a few old makefile.pl's where invoking ant and`
		5587	`javac directly in order to build small Java components. This was`
		5588	`normally being done in the guise of the WIN32 target. These packages`
		5589	`were making assumptions about the version of Java on the users search`
		5590	`path.`
		5591
		5592	`JATS can invoke ANT and build Java based components using the MakeAnt`
		5593	`directive and the JAVA platform. This method is controlled and`
		5594	`reproducible.`
		5595
		5596	`This release provides changes such that these packages will not build.`
		5597	`This is better than building incorrectly.`
		5598
		5599	`There are several aspects to the change`
		5600	`1) JATS provides binaries (ant and javac) with an error message. If`
		5601	`the user invoked ant/javac in a manner that involves searching the`
		5602	`PATH then these will be used and report an error.`
		5603
		5604	`2) A special command (jats abt) can be used to start up the Auto Build`
		5605	`Tool in a manner that does not alter the PATH seen by the utilities.`
		5606	`Moreover it does not alter the JAVA_HOME seen by the build. This is`
		5607	`controlled separately.`
		5608
		5609	`Minor changes:`
		5610	`* Sanitize the PATH environment variable`
		5611	`Ensure the JATS bin directory is the first directory searched`
		5612	`Remove duplicates`
		5613	`Place non-existent components at the end of the PATH`
		5614
		5615	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5616	`Version: JATS_2.67.1 Released: 17-Aug-07`
		5617	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5618	`Major changes:`
		5619
		5620	`Minor changes:`
		5621	`* Makefile sanity test`
		5622	`Added a test to ensure that makefiles created on a machine of one type are`
		5623	`not then run on a machine of a different type.`
		5624
		5625	`This will prevent files created on solaris-sparc being used on a solaris-`
		5626	`x86 machine.`
		5627
		5628	`* Correct bug in RunTest`
		5629	`RunTest now extends the PATH to include the local bin directory`
		5630
		5631	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5632	`Version: JATS_2.67.0 Released: 13-Aug-07`
		5633	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5634	`Major changes:`
		5635	`* RunTest directive`
		5636	`Added support for running tests within the NUNIT test framework for the`
		5637	`CSHARP target. In the process a generalized mechanism for accessing`
		5638	`toolset specific test frameworks has been added.`
		5639
		5640	`Changes to the directive to support a FrameWork.`
		5641	`The use of a test FrameWork is signaled with the option`
		5642	`--FrameWork=<name> If this is present then the raw name of the program`
		5643	`under test will be passed to the framework. program.`
		5644
		5645	`If a FrameWork is in use, then JATS will invoke the specified framework`
		5646	`builder within the current toolset.`
		5647
		5648	`When a framework is in place JATS will pass arguments of the form:`
		5649	`'--Tag=Text' to the FrameWork. Other options are processed as normal.`
		5650
		5651	`With in the Nunit FrameWork the program under test will be a DLL Nunit`
		5652	`will only operate on a DLL. The DLL must have been created by the makefile`
		5653	`containing the RunTest directive.`
		5654
		5655	`The Nunit Framework supports the following options:`
		5656	`--Uses=<Name>[,SubOption]+`
		5657
		5658	`This option specifies other DLLs that are used by the TestDLL. They will`
		5659	`be copied in to the test directory, and may be sourced from an external`
		5660	`package or the components 'local' lib directory.`
		5661
		5662	`SubOptions available to The --Uses directive are:`
		5663	`--NonJats This is not a JATS built library. It will not have a`
		5664	`P or D suffix.`
		5665	`--Jats (Default) This is a JATS built library. JATS will`
		5666	`select the correct library type for this build.`
		5667
		5668	`Minor changes:`
		5669	`* New Cache cleanup mechanism`
		5670	`When a package is consumed from the 'cache' a flag is updated within`
		5671	`the cache. The cache aging routines use this file in preference to`
		5672	`the descpkg file, thus it will prevent the aging of packages that are`
		5673	`frequently used. The aging policy can be made more aggressive.`
		5674
		5675	`* Save Build Utility`
		5676	`This utility is used by the Auto Build System to save the 'build.pl' file`
		5677	`used in a ripple build.`
		5678
		5679	`The utility has been enhanced to detect a reserved checkout of the`
		5680	`build.pl. The checkout will be changed to unreserved - if possible.`
		5681
		5682	`* Release Utility`
		5683	`The 'jats release' command will now unlock any labels that it locked`
		5684	`when an error is encountered.`
		5685
		5686	`This simplifies the 'release' process as the developers label will be`
		5687	`unlocked if a build error occurs.`
		5688
		5689	`* Jats caching local copy of itself`
		5690	`Fixed a bug which resulted in an "Use of individualized value" message`
		5691	`being displayed a large number of times during the file transfer process.`
		5692
		5693	`* Minor extension to allow plug-in directives to perform a processing step`
		5694	`before the makefiles are created.`
		5695
		5696	`* TestProg directive`
		5697	`TestProg's are now built in exactly the same manner as Progs`
		5698
		5699	`* Correct problem introduced in 2.66.1 with packaging of files with`
		5700	`a 'space' or '$' in the file name.`
		5701

		5704	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5705	`Major changes:`
		5706	`* New build target`
		5707	`LINUX_ETX - Support for Linux on an ETX board`
		5708	`LMOS_LINUX_ETX - Support for LMOS on the LINUX_ETX target`
		5709
		5710	`These targets have also been added to the following pseudo targets.`
		5711	`DEVLINUX`
		5712	`LMOS_DEVLINUX`
		5713
		5714	`* Internal utility dpkg_cache [Windows]`
		5715	`Modified to remove use of system utilities to perform the the file`
		5716	`transfer, after having problems the 'cp.exe' provided by JATS.`
		5717
		5718	`Minor changes:`
		5719	`* Added utility class to provide directory searching`
		5720	`To be used in JATS and JATS support tools`
		5721
		5722	`* tweaks to the C# toolset`
		5723	`Correct problem with filename that start with "n" as in .\not_nice.cs`
		5724
		5725	`Create resource files with Fully Qualified Names derived from the .resx`
		5726	`and .cs files.`
		5727
		5728	`Handle Strong Key Names and creates wrappers to provide do the right`
		5729	`thing.`
		5730
		5731	`* Microtec ColdFire compiler`
		5732	`Further attempts to get the compiler to place all of its temp files in a`
		5733	`local directory. The compiler uses a large number of EnVars to control`
		5734	`were it places temp files.`
		5735
		5736	`Underlying problem is random compiler failures on big builds. Suspected`
		5737	`interaction with other builds.`
		5738
		5739	`* Release utility command`
		5740	`Added a -tag=name option to allow the Auto Build Tools to create`
		5741	`multiple instances of a static view. The tag is used to provide a unique`
		5742	`component in the clearcase tag name.`

		5834	`the dependancy on JATS of various packaging processes.`
		5835
		5836	`* GenerateFiles`
		5837	`Added the options:`
		5838	`--UnknownPreq - Will force the recipe to be run every time`
		5839	`the generated files are required. May be used`
		5840	`when the dependancies are too complex to`
		5841	`describe. ie: Entire directory tree.`
		5842
		5843	`--AutoGenerate - Will not force the recipe to be run during the`
		5844	`'generate' phase, unless the recipe generates`
		5845	`source files. Allows recipes to be run very`
		5846	`late. ie: when the dependent files are actually`
		5847	`required.`
		5848
		5849
		5850	`Minor changes:`
		5851	`* GenerateFile directive`
		5852	`Added --Var(BuildRoot)`
		5853
		5854	`* GCC Toolset`
		5855	`Creating Shared Libaries with a 'Def' file. The library is now dependent`
		5856	`on the Def file, such that changes to the Def file will cause the library to`
		5857	`be rebuilt.`
		5858
		5859	`* MakeAnt and MakeProject directives`
		5860	`Preserve the order in which projects are built.`

		5880
		5881	`If you need to use tools that access RM or DM, outside of the ABT scripts on`

		5997	`This is a tag that will be expanded to all the known WINCE targets.`
		5998	`Use of this platform will simplify the creation of components for`
		5999	`consumption on all WINCE machines.`

		6013	`The WINCE targets actually built will be affected by GBE_BUILDFILTER.`
		6014
		6015	`* JATS makefile.pl`
		6016	`The package descriptor file, 'descpkg', will be packaged in all makefiles`
		6017	`that contain packaging directives.`
		6018
		6019	`There is now no need to explicitly package the 'descpkg' file, except in`

		6021
		6022	`Minor changes:`
		6023	`* Directive: PackageFile`
		6024	`Generate a warning if the source file name does not confirm to good naming`

		6031	`* JATS Internal utility: cmdfile`
		6032	`Updated Linux and Solaris targets with a version of the cmdfile that`
		6033	`provides a better error message for libraries that cannot be found.`
		6034
		6035	`This version will display the library search path with one item per line,`

		6039	`Version: JATS_2.63.0 Released: 5-Apr-07`
		6040	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6041	`Major changes:`
		6042
		6043	`* JATS release command`
		6044	`Modified the configuration spec generated when a branching rule is`
		6045	`specified. The change will ensure that directories are not branched.`
		6046
		6047	`Rules are:`
		6048	`Modify a file: File will branch`
		6049	`Adding a file: Containing directory will not branch`
		6050	`File will be placed on a branch`
		6051	`Add a directory: Containing directory will not branch`
		6052	`New directory will branch`
		6053
		6054	`Minor changes:`
		6055	`* JATS release command`
		6056	`Added -noprefex option to allow the creation of a view directory without the`
		6057	`user name being prefixed to it. This is useful in creating an escrow view.`
		6058
		6059	`* JATS label command`
		6060	`Detect and report parent directories that are checkedout when a label`
		6061	`is applied. Previously these had gone unreported.`
		6062
		6063	`* JATS make`
		6064	`Undo previous change to preserve symbolic links while Packaging and`
		6065	`Installing files. A problem was encountered when a file from a package`
		6066	`was re-packaged.`
		6067
		6068	`* JATS escrow`
		6069	`Added a tool to generate information for creating an escrow drop.`
		6070	`Use jats escrow -help for details`
		6071
		6072	`* makefile.pl directive: MakeAnt`
		6073	`This directive will create parameters to specify the location of external java`
		6074	`packages that have been referenced via a LinkPkgArchive directive.`
		6075
		6076	`This allows the build.xml to contruct a CLASSPATH to access JAR files in`
		6077	`packages, without the overhead of copying the entire package into the`
		6078	`interface directory.`
		6079
		6080	`* build.pl directive: BuildPkgArchive`
		6081	`Modified the processing of 'jar' directories.`
		6082	`Directories of the form 'jar.<target>' will be transferred into the 'jar'`
		6083	`directory as seen by the package.`
		6084
		6085	`Intended use: Deployment of oraclient for Solaris 10`
		6086
		6087	`* JAVA 6`
		6088	`JATS now supports all versions of Java through the use of JAVA_HOME_X_Y`
		6089	`environment variables. Where X andY specify the version of JAVA.`
		6090
		6091	`The jats.bat and jats.sh example files only provide indication of 1.4, 1.5`
		6092	`and 1.6 support, but all versions are now supported.`
		6093
		6094	`The "jats vars -v" command will display all JAVA_HOME environment variables`
		6095
		6096	`* Jats command: vars`
		6097	`Extended to show a "*" for EnvVars that do not address a valid directory`
		6098	`These indicate potential problems.`

		6100	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6101	`Version: JATS_2.62.4 Released: 20-Mar-07`
		6102	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6103	`Major changes:`
		6104	`* JATS create_dpkg + packageing shared libraries (Unix)`
		6105	`When a shared library is created a simple symbolic link to the versioned`
		6106	`libarry is also created.`
		6107
		6108	`Previous versions of JATS would replace the symbolic link with a physical`
		6109	`copy of the file. The effect of this is that when the shared libaries is`
		6110	`'Installed', 'Packaged' and transferred into dpkg_archive there are two`
		6111	`files, instead of one file and one link to the file (in the same directory)`
		6112	`The Solaris shared libraries can be quite large, due to the debug`
		6113	`information contained within the file.`
		6114
		6115	`This version of JATS will preserve symbolic links when 'Installing',`
		6116	`'Packaging' and transferring to dpkg_archive.`
		6117
		6118	`The advantage of this will be significant reduction in disk space used`
		6119	`within the build environment and dpkg_archive.`
		6120
		6121	`* Building Perl Modules`
		6122	`Modified the process to prevent the module builder attempting to modify the`
		6123	`documentation on the build machine.`
		6124
		6125	`Integrated the 'jats clean' operation.`
		6126
		6127	`Minor changes:`
		6128	`* jats create_dpkg`
		6129	`Added an option to create a built.generic file`
		6130	`This is only used by the Automated Built Tools.`
		6131
		6132	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6133	`Version: JATS_2.62.3 Released: 28-Feb-07`
		6134	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6135	`Major changes:`
		6136	`* JATS JAVA build target`
		6137	`The default behaviour of the JAVA build target has changed such that the`
		6138	`default version of JAVA used will be 1.4.`
		6139
		6140	`Previous behaviour was to use whichever version was specified by the EnvVar`
		6141	`JAVA_HOME. This was not controlled, thus the build was not controlled.`
		6142	`Problems occur when using the new AutoBuildTool as it uses Java 1.5 and this`
		6143	`is then picked up as the default version.`
		6144
		6145	`If a version, other than 1.4, is required then specify it within the`
		6146	`build.pl file.`
		6147
		6148	`Minor changes:`
		6149	`* jats release`
		6150	`Ensure that the 'cleartool' command can be found in the users PATH`
		6151	`Issue an error if it cannot be found.`
		6152	`This error indicates bad DevEnv setup`
		6153
		6154	`Added facility to create a view based on a config_spec, instead of a label.`
		6155	`Such a view cannot be used to create a release. It is intended to simplify`
		6156	`the creation of simple static views. The name of view is, by default,`
		6157	`based on the name of the config spec. Use the -view=name option to change`
		6158	`the name of the view.`
		6159
		6160	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		6161	`Added new --Vars() to allow packaging of JATS plugin tools.`
		6162
		6163	`* MOS Toolset`
		6164	`When using MOS fast intermodule calls the optimizer will preload commonly`
		6165	`used memory addresses into a register BEFORE the GDP has been correctly set`
		6166	`up. Use the following option to suppress this optimization`
		6167
		6168	`Added: CompileOptions ('*', 'NoGlobalOptimization' );`

		6175
		6176	`Minor changes:`
		6177	`* JATS environment`
		6178	`Ensure that the true path of the Perl executable is present in the PATH`
		6179	`environment variable. This allows build tool access to various perl utilities`
		6180	`that are located in the Perl bin directory.`
		6181
		6182	`Resolves issues in locating utilities such as pod2html`
		6183
		6184	`* Use of GENERIC platforms`
		6185	`Report an error if a GENERIC platform is mixed with any other platform`
		6186	`specifier. GENERIC is used for packages that build on all machines because`
		6187	`they do not use a compiler or linker. They simply contains files that need`
		6188	`to be packaged.`
		6189
		6190	`* Generated makefiles`
		6191	`Solaris and Linux: Ensure that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is exported if it is used.`
		6192
		6193	`* Generating MOS THX files`
		6194	`Added option --BinaryImage to the SharedLib directive used to create MOS THX`
		6195	`files. This option will create a binary image (.bin) instead of a .thx file.`
		6196	`This is being used in the creation of BR Applets.`
		6197
		6198	`SharedLib ( 'MOS', "xxx", @OBJS, "--Rel=xxx.rel", "--BinaryImage" );`
		6199
		6200	`* JATS release`
		6201	`Correct the operation of the -path option under Unix`

		6205
		6206	`* JATS Toolset`
		6207	`Added support for the WinCe PSION (WCEPSION_420)`
		6208	`This is a armv4i device using 4.20 of the WCE SDK`

		6214	`Major changes:`
		6215
		6216	`Minor changes:`
		6217	`* jats label`
		6218	`Added a -vob=name option`
		6219	`This allwos the label utility to create, lock, unlock, rename and delete`
		6220	`labels without the user actually being located within the VOB. This option`
		6221	`cannot be used in conjunction with operations that place labels on files.`
		6222	`It can only be used for operations that manipulate the label.`
		6223
		6224	`Added a -user=name option`
		6225	`This extends the operation of the -mine operation to change ownership of the`
		6226	`label to the named user.`
		6227
		6228	`* jats release`
		6229	`Displays the path to the view and the build file in a user friendly manner`
		6230	`Under Windows it uses \, unless running under cygwin.`
		6231
		6232	`* JATS build.pl`
		6233	`BuildProduct supports the --Uses=xxxx construct on a per-target basis.`
		6234	`ie:`
		6235	`BuildProduct ('TP5', 'LMOS_TP5600_EMU', 'LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI,--Uses=TP5600_ARM9TDMI');`

		6241	`Major changes:`
		6242	`* GenerateFiles and RunTest directives`
		6243	`These directives have been extended to allow a large number of makefile`
		6244	`values to be added to the command lines,without resorting to knowledge of`
		6245	`the makefile internals. ie:`
		6246	`--Var(BuildName)`
		6247	`will be expanded to (hen building MyPackage)`
		6248	`-BuildName=MyPackage`
		6249
		6250	`The complete list of Variables is provided in the JATS manual.`
		6251
		6252	`* GenerateFiles`
		6253	`Added a --Clean option to allow tools to be invoked in the 'clean' phase`

		6264	`* GenerateFiles`
		6265	`Maintains the arguments in an array for simpler processing.`
		6266
		6267	`--Shell is now processed by the 'make' shell rather then invoking an`
		6268	`external shell. It will be the same shell, just easier to setup.`

		6273	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6274	`Major changes:`
		6275	`* Caching JATS`
		6276	`Added a mechanism whereby JATS can cache a copy of itself on the users local`
		6277	`drive. This is applicable to windows.`
		6278
		6279	`This mechanism will allow a user to address JATS via the soft-links in`
		6280	`dpkg_archive and pick up the current version of JATS without the penalty of`
		6281	`then using JATS across a slow(network) link.`
		6282
		6283	`The EnvVar GBE_CACHE_JATS controls the operation of this feature.`
		6284	`Set GBE_CACHE_JATS to one to enable the operation, but it will only be`
		6285	`effective if JATS is being run from GBE_DPKG in the first place.`
		6286
		6287	`Use: Build Machines and Windows Users`
		6288
		6289	`Minor changes:`
		6290	`* Build directive: BuildAlias with --Target option`
		6291	`Corrected a problem when the target name is a expanded platform name (ie:`
		6292	`TP5600) that prevent correct expansion.`
		6293
		6294	`* jats build`
		6295	`If the user has not configured a cache, then do not attempt to cache`
		6296	`packages. This will remove an annoying warning message for each package`
		6297	`processed by the build.`
		6298
		6299	`* jats build`
		6300	`Modified the error messages generated when JATS fails to create the`
		6301	`makefiles. The previous system would report failures while creating`
		6302	`makefiles and, at the end of the process, it would generate a large error`
		6303	`message to indicate the failure. This large message diverted the users`
		6304	`from reading the other error messages resulting in confusion.`
		6305
		6306	`* PackageFile, PackageLib, PackageProg and PackageHdr`
		6307	`Detect and report as an error use of the --Dir=<Path> option where the`
		6308	`Path is not specified.`
		6309
		6310	`Most instances of this error will be where the option has been mis-used in`
		6311	`conjunction with a package.pl file, or during transition from using a`
		6312	`package.pl file. That change is detects errors where the user has specified`
		6313	`--Dir=$Pinc`
		6314	`but $Pinc is not defined.`
		6315
		6316	`* Purify and Purecov under Windows`
		6317	`Changes to correct the operation of Rational's tools when used on the`
		6318	`Windows platform.`
		6319
		6320	`- OPTIONS=purecov`
		6321	`Forces the link operations to generate the relocation table required`
		6322	`by 'purecov.`
		6323
		6324	`Does not attempt to use purecov in the compiler tool chain`
		6325	`This is required under Solaris, but not Windows`
		6326
		6327	`- OPTIONS=purify`
		6328	`Does not attempt to use purecov in the compiler tool chain`
		6329	`This is required under Solaris, but not Windows.`

		6351
		6352	`* Unix based systems`
		6353	`If the EnvVar LD_LIBRARY_PATH was undefined, then a warning would be`
		6354	`generated by make under some conditions. The warning has been removed.`
		6355

		6563
		6564	`Minor changes:`
		6565	`* WIN32 and WINCE toolsets`
		6566	`SharedLib operation. Added an option to allow the creation of a 'stub'`

		6608
		6609	`Currently this is only supported to target platforms based on`
		6610	`SOLARIS`
		6611	`WIN32`
		6612
		6613	`* Removal of support for badly formed packages`
		6614	`As of this release libraries that exist in the <packagename>/lib directory`
		6615	`will not be available to JATS. These libraries are in the incorrect`
		6616	`directory. They MUST be in a directory that indicates the intended purpose`
		6617	`of the library. A .so library cannot be used on all machines ( linux,`
		6618	`solaris-sparc, solaris-amd ... ).`
		6619
		6620	`* Build Platform target name expansion facility`
		6621	`The build targets of SOLARIS and LINUX are seen as expandable names. They`

		6631	`Added a -root=dirname to allow the user to place the created view at a given`
		6632	`location`
		6633
		6634	`Added GBE_VIEWBASE to provide a globally configured mechanism for`
		6635	`controlling the view location. Performs the same job as -root=xxxx`
		6636
		6637	`* Utility genrc`
		6638	`Added the company name to the copyright string`
		6639
		6640	`* Utility: jats_save_build`
		6641	`Added option: -new`
		6642	`This option forces the saved file only a new branch.`
		6643	`The option can be used to save a build.pl file onto a new project-specific`
		6644	`branch. Useful when branching an entire release.`
		6645
		6646	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6647	`Added options to allow project suffixes to be replaced.`
		6648	`Use: Convert a .syd project to a .bej project.`
		6649
		6650	`* Deprecated features: package.pl and tree.dir`
		6651	`These two build features are being deprecated. They are not suitable for`
		6652	`migration to other SOLARIS based platforms.`
		6653
		6654	`The Package directives provide sufficient power to replace the package.pl`
		6655	`features - in a uniform manner.`
		6656
		6657
		6658	`Internal Changes:`
		6659	`* Major rework of the JATS BuildPlatform, BuildAlias an BuildProducts`
		6660	`directives, together with the mechanism used to describe the platform builds.`
		6661
		6662	`Introduced a CFG/<PLATFORM>.CFG file to provide:`
		6663	`1) Platform information available at build time`
		6664	`2) Dynamic platform names`
		6665
		6666	`* Major rework of the 'SOLARIS' platform`
		6667	`The SOLARIS platform will generate one or more targets, depending on the`
		6668	`machine on which the platform is invoked.`
		6669
		6670	`Consolidated a number of SOLARIS specific kludges and converted them into`
		6671	`configurable items. These kludges are really on applicable to the`
		6672	`SOLARIS8_SPARC32 platform. New SOLARIS builds will be well formed.`
		6673
		6674	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6675	`Formalized a number of kludges in operation of the SOLARIS8 under sparc32`
		6676	`platform. These are configured early in the build process and are no longer`
		6677	`needed.`
		6678
		6679	`A side effect of this work is that files from external packages may be`
		6680	`located in 'SOLARIS', 'SOLARIS_sparc' or 'sparc' directories. The change`
		6681	`should be transparent as the consumer tools should be able to handle`
		6682	`files from all of these.`

		6694	`Version: JATS_2.55.0 Released: 3-Aug-06`
		6695	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6696	`Major changes:`
		6697	`* Jats wrapper: Specify version of JATS to be used`
		6698	`Added a -version=xxxx option to force JATS to use a specific version of`
		6699	`JATS. The same operation can be achieved by setting GBE_JATS_VERSION.`
		6700
		6701	`The required version MUST be found in one of the known archives.`
		6702
		6703	`JATS will attempt to cache the version of JATS to assist in speeding up`
		6704	`the operations.`
		6705
		6706	`The version option MUST be the first option.`
		6707
		6708	`The version option MUST be followed by a '--' option.`
		6709	`This prevents JATS parsing other options and recursion issues.`
		6710
		6711	`Example: jats -version=2.54.3.cr -- build`
		6712
		6713	`* Migrated the "jats install" functionality out of the jats wrapper script`
		6714	`and into the create_dpkg utility. This is transparent to the user.`
		6715
		6716	`* Utility: create_dpkg`
		6717	`Added a '-quiet' option to allow use within scripts`
		6718	`Extended the built-in help`

		6727	`are used in the creation of bootstraps.`
		6728
		6729	`Minor changes:`
		6730	`* JATS wrapper script`
		6731	`Added a -ABT=xxx option to allow the Auto Build Tool to be invoked from`
		6732	`the command line.`
		6733
		6734	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6735	`Modified so that it will display changes. These will then be present in the`
		6736	`ABT log so that a developer can see which packages have been rippled.`
		6737
		6738	`Internal Changes:`
		6739	`* Common Error Reporting`
		6740	`Will use environment variables to control DEBUG and VERBOSE levels`
		6741	`for individual users. A module reporting with a name of XXXX will use EnvVars`
		6742	`of GBE_XXXX_VERBOSE and GBE_XXXX_DEBUG to control the debug and VERBOSE`
		6743	`level.`
		6744
		6745	`Force flushing after a "Question" is asked to ensure that the prompt is`

		6763	`Added AT7272 support`
		6764

		6782	`Major changes:`
		6783
		6784	`Minor changes:`
		6785	`* Mictotec toolset`
		6786	`Assembler files. Define DEBUG in debug builds and NDEBUG in production`
		6787	`builds.`
		6788
		6789	`* JATS Core`
		6790	`Added GBE_ABT. This is used by the Auto Build Tool to indicate that an`
		6791	`auto build is in progress. It may be used by various tools to modify their`
		6792	`behaviour.`
		6793
		6794	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6795	`Version: JATS_2.54.0 Released: 22-Jun-06`
		6796	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6797	`Major changes:`
		6798	`* Removal of non-core deployment functionality from JATS.`
		6799	`Deployment package will be affected.`
		6800
		6801	`The build.pl file of deployment package will need to import deployment`
		6802	`support with a BuildPkgArchive directive. ie:`
		6803
		6804	`BuildPkgArchive ( 'deployfiles', '1.0.0.cr' );`
		6805
		6806	`This version of deployfiles contains the same functionality as that provided`
		6807	`by the previous version of JATS. Version 2 of this package will be the start`
		6808	`of a deployment system that will provide support for building InstallShield`
		6809	`packages.`
		6810
		6811	`* Deployment support utilities must be run under JATS`
		6812	`The environment required for the deployment support utilities is complex`
		6813	`and is provided by the JATS wrapper script.`
		6814
		6815	`This is a change in usage. Instead of running the program 'updatenodespec'`
		6816	`the user will need to run 'jats updatenodespec'`
		6817
		6818	`Minor changes:`
		6819	`* SubDir directive`
		6820	`Added a sanity test to detect the case when a 'SubDir' directive specifies`
		6821	`a directory from two different makefiles.`
		6822
		6823	`* Tools: Dependancy generator mkdepend`
		6824	`If an include file was referenced by a symbolic name, then the generated`
		6825	`dependancy information would be wrong for all but the first occurrence`
		6826	`of the file usage.`
		6827
		6828	`* New utility: jats_manifest`
		6829	`Used by the build system to generate and validate source files.`
		6830	`Beta Release: Windows only at the moment`
		6831
		6832	`* Unit tests under SOLARIS_sparc`
		6833	`The LD_LIBRARY_PATH has been modified to correctly pick up libraries`
		6834	`generated within the build and have been installed locally.`
		6835
		6836	`* Default behaviour of JATS the wrapper script`
		6837	`This has been changed. Previous unknown commands were passed to make.`
		6838	`In this release unknown comamnds will be treated a 'etool' commands and`
		6839	`will execute a JATS extended command.`
		6840
		6841
		6842	`Internal Changes:`
		6843	`* Code refactor`
		6844	`Created JatsEnv to encapsulate functionality that was multiply defined.`
		6845
		6846	`* Deployment utilities`
		6847	`The Perl module Ignorelist.pm and the .ccignore file`
		6848	`Changed the mechanism by which this module locates a .ccignore file.`
		6849	`The .ccignore file has been moved to the same directory as the module and`
		6850	`the module can locate the file.`
		6851
		6852	`Previously the module required an environment variable in order to locate`
		6853	`the file, which was in a fixed location anyway.`
		6854
		6855	`* JATS core`
		6856	`Removed the use of the environment variable PERLINC.`
		6857
		6858	`Better parsing of descpkg files.`
		6859
		6860	`* JATS core debugging: JatsError.pm`
		6861	`Allow control over the debug and verbose messages of specific programs`
		6862	`through the use of environment variables.`
		6863
		6864	`A program reporting errors as "name" can be controlled via environment`
		6865	`variables GBE_name_VERBOSE and GBE_name_DEBUG.`
		6866
		6867	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6868	`Modified the subdirectories transferred with this directive to include:`
		6869	`deployfiles - as used by the deployment system`
		6870	`tools/scripts - as used by perl based extensions`
		6871
		6872	`* Make environment`
		6873	`Extended the PERL5LIB path seen by perl programs executed under make to`
		6874	`include 'tools/script' directories that contain Perl Modules.`
		6875
		6876
		6877	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6878	`Version: JATS_2.53.2 Released: 13-Jun-06`
		6879	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6880	`Major changes:`
		6881	`* Deployment. GetMassInstId.rul (From George Christidis)`
		6882	`Added support for SILENT_MODE`
		6883
		6884
		6885	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6886	`Version: JATS_2.53.1 Released: Not release`
		6887	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6888
		6889	`Not Released.`
		6890	`This label waas used as a place keeper. This version was not used as a basis`
		6891	`for JATS_2.53.2. Its much closer to JATS_2.54.0.`
		6892
		6893
		6894	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6895	`Version: JATS_2.53.0 Released: 11-Apr-06`
		6896	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6897	`Major changes:`
		6898	`* Deployment Scripts: Release Manager Database Access`
		6899	`The mechanism for communicating with the Release Manager Database has been`
		6900	`radically replaced.`
		6901
		6902	`A test tool has been added to prove connectivity to Release Manager.`
		6903	`Usage:`
		6904	`jats etool test_rmconnection`
		6905
		6906	`The pervious scripts used DBI::ODBC to communicate with the Oracle`
		6907	`Database that contains Release Manager. There were a number of problems with`
		6908	`this solution:`
		6909	`- Required the installation of two Perl Modules`
		6910	`- Required the installation of an Oracle client`
		6911	`- Required the use of an ODBC bridge machine when used on Solaris`
		6912	`- Support for Perl within Oracle appears to be on the decline`
		6913
		6914	`The solutions uses a Java application and Java's jdbc. The oracle:thin`
		6915	`client is used as this does not require any installation or configuration in`
		6916	`order to work.`
		6917
		6918	`JATS overrides Perl's DBI package with a package of the same name, but`
		6919	`reduced functionality.`
		6920
		6921
		6922	`Minor changes:`
		6923	`* makefile.pl directive: SetValue`
		6924	`Added a '--' option to disable and enable parsing of options.`
		6925	`This allows a value with leading '--' to be set.`
		6926
		6927	`* makefile.pl directive: SetList`
		6928	`Added this directive to formalise the creation and processing of lists`
		6929	`within the makefiles.`
		6930	`Options:`
		6931	`--NoWarn Disable name clash warnings`
		6932	`--Project=xxxx[,xxxx]+ Add to list in selected projects`
		6933	`--Unique Add only if not already present`
		6934	`--Clear Clear list, before adding new items`
		6935	`--Append Append items to list (default)`
		6936	`-- Disable/Enable option parsing`
		6937	`Useage:`
		6938
		6939	`SetList ('*', 'LibList', 'lib1', 'lib2', '--Project=syd');`
		6940	`SharedLib ('*', 'MyDLL', @OBJS, @LibList );`
		6941
		6942	`* Makefile.pl directive: RunTest`
		6943	`Corrected the option of the --CopyIn=file option where the specified file`
		6944	`is not in the current directory.`
		6945
		6946	`* Jats Command: ant'`
		6947	`This command has been extended to make use of the -buildfile=xxxx option`
		6948	`to allow multiple buildfiles to be differentiated.`
		6949
		6950	`eg: jats -buildfile=MyPackage ant`
		6951
		6952	`* TOOLSET: DAFBR Compiler support`
		6953	`Modified the toolset to support an optimisation feature of the next`
		6954	`generation of the daf_br_compiler. These will be enabled if the major version`
		6955	`of the package containing the compiler is greater the "1". ie: 2.0.0.cr`
		6956
		6957	`* Interface helper files: set_XXXX.bat/.sh`
		6958	`Added provision to process user command arguments.`
		6959	`Thus`
		6960
		6961	`set_WIN32.bat prog`
		6962
		6963	`will set the WIN32 environment and run the command: prog`
		6964

		6967	`Version: JATS_2.52.2 Released: 30-Mar-06`
		6968	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6969	`Major changes:`
		6970
		6971	`Minor changes:`
		6972	`* Addressed issue with BUILDNAME, an internal variable.`
		6973	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user build.pl's they need to be`
		6974	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a project`
		6975	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		6976	`$(BUILDNAME) contains two or three space seperated fields - always`
		6977
		6978	`* m16c Toolset - MCRFirmware`
		6979	`Force the generation of .thx and payload files when the .bin files are`
		6980	`created. Previously this only occured in the packaging phase.`
		6981
		6982	`Internal changes:`
		6983	`* JATS toolsets`
		6984	`Added a feature to allow a toolset to flag additional files that get created`
		6985	`as a part of a "Prog". This allows a "Prog" definition to generate a`
		6986	`number of files, some which may be packaged.`
		6987
		6988	`Previously such files where only generated during the packaging phase. Now`
		6989	`they will be generated during the make_prog phase - with the other programs.`
		6990
		6991	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6992	`Version: JATS_2.52.1 Released: 29-Mar-06`
		6993	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6994	`Major changes:`
		6995	`* Jats command: etool`
		6996	`Extended to allow execution of deployment tools. This allows the deployment`
		6997	`tools to use the JATS core perl modules.`
		6998
		6999	`* Address issues with the use of BUILDVER and ScmBuildVer`
		7000	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user makefile.pl's they need to be`
		7001	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a projectt`
		7002	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		7003	`$(BUILDVERSION) contains the project extension - always`
		7004	`$ScmBuildVersion does not contain a project extension - always`
		7005
		7006	`Minor changes:`
		7007
		7008
		7009	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7010	`Version: JATS_2.52.0 Released: 27-Mar-06`
		7011	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7012	`Major changes:`
		7013	`* JATS environment variables`
		7014	`Added GBE_DPKG_STORE`
		7015	`Optionally addresses a dpkg_archive store. This is intended to allow`
		7016	`read only access to a remote repository. The GBE_DPKG_STORE will be`
		7017	`searched after GBE_DPKG. It will be searched last. JATS, be default,`
		7018	`will not publish packages in this repository.`
		7019
		7020	`Uses: Seed repository for a complete build`
		7021	`Remote repository`
		7022
		7023	`Added GBE_DPLY`
		7024	`Optionally addresses a Deployment Archive. This is only used in the`
		7025	`placement of deployment packages. This value may be project specific.`
		7026
		7027	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		7028	`Changes the mechanism used to link against the compiler RTL.`
		7029	`Previously the RTL was included multiple times in the link order. This`
		7030	`created problem with daf_dsi as the function 'time()' was being satisfied by`
		7031	`the RTL before being satisfied by the user libraries.`
		7032
		7033	`The compiler RTL is now treated as a library of last resort. It will be`
		7034	`processed once and it will be processed last.`
		7035
		7036
		7037	`Minor changes:`
		7038	`* JATS utility: build`
		7039	`* JATS utility: cache_dpkg`
		7040	`Extended the package search algorithm to locate a package within`
		7041	`GBE_DPKG_STORE. This archive will be searched last.`
		7042
		7043	`* JATS utility: gen_cots`
		7044	`Ensure label is not locked`
		7045	`Add option to allow user to specify source directory other than a package`
		7046	`that already exists in dpkg_archive.`
		7047
		7048	`* JATS directive: PackageFile`
		7049	`Now supports --Prod and --Debug options to limit the packaging process`
		7050	`to a specific type of build.`
		7051
		7052	`* JATS directive: GenerateFiles and RunTests`
		7053	`Added a --PackageInfo() replacement tag to allow package version information`
		7054	`to be extracted and passed to generator programs.`
		7055	`ie: --PackageInfo(sysbasetypes,syd,--fullversion)`
		7056
		7057	`Extended the --PackageBase() replacement tag to work with packages such as`
		7058	`sysbasetypes, where there is a .cr and a .syd type.`
		7059	`ie: --PackageBase(sysbasetypes,syd)`
		7060
		7061	`* JATS utility: release`
		7062	`Under windows, ensure that the directory C:\Clearcase exists. There have`
		7063	`been installations of Clearcase where this is directory does not exist.`
		7064
		7065	`* JATS utility: label`
		7066	`Added option: "-comment=Text" to allow a comment to be added to a label,`
		7067	`when it is being created.`
		7068
		7069	`Internal Changes`
		7070	`* JATS utility: create_dpkg`
		7071	`Refactored code to use JATS DescPkg class.`
		7072
		7073	`Added options to allow packaging to the various archives. This is of no use`
		7074	`to the normal developer, but will be used within the complete build system.`
		7075
		7076	`* Factored out the parsing of the BuildName directive`
		7077	`This process was being done in 3 locations - and there were getting`
		7078	`different results.`
		7079
		7080	`* ToolsetRequire directive`
		7081	`This has been extended to allow JATS to locate Toolset extensions within`
		7082	`packages. They should be placed within the tool/scripts directory`
		7083
		7084	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7085	`Version: JATS_2.51.0 Released: 15-Mar-06`

		7094	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7095	`Major changes:`
		7096	`* WIN32 utilities`
		7097	`Replaced a number of the Windows utilities ( cp, rm, mv ...)`
		7098	`with versions from the GNUWin32 project.`
		7099
		7100	`The 'cp' previously used could not recursively copy large directories`
		7101	`under Windows Server 2003, when both the source and destination are on the`
		7102	`same drive. ( dpkg_cache of ace ).`
		7103
		7104	`Minor changes:`
		7105	`* BuildVersion`
		7106	`The definition of VERSION_BUILD within the generated version-defs.h file`
		7107	`will have leading zeros removed, thus allowing it to be used within a 'C'`
		7108	`program without the number being interpreted as an octal constant.`
		7109
		7110	`The string form (VERSION_BUILD_STR) will retain the zeros.`
		7111
		7112	`* Unix Builds`
		7113	`Corrected several issues encountered when specifying the name of a static`
		7114	`library or a shared library.`
		7115
		7116	`JATS will prepend 'lib' to the user specified library name. Problems occurred`
		7117	`when the user specified a library name that started with 'lib'. Now, on Unix`
		7118	`systems, JATS will only prepend 'lib' if the library name does not already`
		7119	`start with 'lib'.`
		7120
		7121	`* BuildPkgArchive`
		7122	`Since 2.45.0 JATS will only transfer files for the BuildPkgArchive, if`
		7123	`they have not already been transferred. Added a test for the source`
		7124	`package being updated and then forceing the copy to be repeated.`
		7125
		7126	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7127	`Version: JATS_2.49.0 Released: 10-Feb-06`
		7128	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7129	`Major changes:`
		7130	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		7131	`Corrected a problem with the dependencies between a .REL file and the target`
		7132	`THX file. If the .REL files was modified the output THX file did not get`
		7133	`regenerated. This was only a problem in cases where the .REL file was`
		7134	`being manually maintained.`
		7135
		7136
		7137	`Minor changes:`
		7138	`* MakeAnt directive`
		7139	`Introduced a check to ensure that this directive is only used with a toolset`
		7140	`that can handle an 'ant' build file. Currently only the JAVA toolset`
		7141	`supports ANT builds.`
		7142
		7143	`* BuildPkgArchive directive`
		7144	`Correct problem in the caching of BuildPkgArchive packages in the case where`
		7145	`there is no GBE_DPKG_LOCAL on the machine.`
		7146
		7147	`* Label utility`
		7148	`Added a 'files=filename,filename' option to allow only specified`
		7149	`files to be labeled.`

		7156	`Fix a bug with the CompilerOptions that allowed a '0' definition to be set to`
		7157	`nothing.`
		7158
		7159	`* MOS Toolset`
		7160	`Added 'CompileOptions' of CcSupervisor.`
		7161	`This will set a MOS internal definition suitable for building specialised`
		7162	`modules.`
		7163
		7164	`* Utility: gen_cots`
		7165	`This utility will create a JATS buildable package froma dpkg_archive entry`
		7166	`and then check it in under clearcase.`
		7167
		7168	`JATS etool gen_cots -man will provide only help.`

		7178
		7179	`Minor changes:`
		7180	`* DEVI addressed`
		7181	`DEVI-022055 JATS builds DLLs with wrong copyright symbol in version resource`
5710	dpurdie	7182	`DEVI-022054 JATS puts "VIX Group test" in Product Name of Windows resource`
227	dpurdie	7183
		7184	`* Utility: release (cbuild)`
		7185	`Added an option to create a view configured to work with a branching`
		7186	`rule. A single branch can be named with the -branch option. eg:`
		7187
		7188	`jats release -extract 'label' -branch SITS_LEGACY_BRANCH`
		7189
		7190	`will create a view based on the named label, but suitable for creating`
		7191	`a patch for Sydney Legacy work.`
		7192
		7193	`* RunTest directive`
		7194	`The 'PATH' that the test uses is extended to allow access to programs that have`
		7195	`been installed with a InstallProg directive. This allows a test script to`
		7196	`test a program that is generated elsewhere within the package.`
		7197
		7198	`* PackageFile, Option --DirTree`
		7199	`Support for filenames that contain a "$" or a ' ' within the`
		7200	`--DirTree option. Implemented to allow entire JAVA class trees to be`
		7201	`packaged under JATS`
		7202
		7203	`Note: In general the use of a $ and space within a filename is not`
		7204	`supported within JATS.`
		7205

		7211	`PATH. If the program is a perl script then it will be run with the`
		7212	`JATS perl interpreter, otherwise it will be processed by the system.`
		7213
		7214	`Eg: jats eprog myscript arg1 arg2`
		7215	`Eg: jats ant`
		7216
		7217	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7218	`Added an 'ant' command. ( "jats ant" )`
		7219
5710	dpurdie	7220	`This will run an VIX ANT build by scanning the current directory for a file`
227	dpurdie	7221	`called <ProjectName>depends.xml and then looking the a file called`
		7222	`<ProjectName>.xml. Jats will then create 'auto.xml' based on the`
		7223	`<ProjectName>depends.xml file and use ant to invoke the`
		7224	`<ProjectName>.xml file.`
		7225
5710	dpurdie	7226	`If the VIX build files cannot be found then ant is simply run and it will`
227	dpurdie	7227	`expect a build.pl file.`
		7228
		7229	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7230	`Force the environment variable PERL5INC to be unset.`
		7231
		7232	`* Jats utility: create_dpkg`
		7233	`Simplify handling of ANT based projects. Look for the package within`
		7234	`the build/pkg subdirectory, in the JANTS style.`
		7235
		7236	`* Utility: gen_winrc (DEVI-022054)`
		7237	`Added a "'-product=text'" option to allow the product name to be specified.`
		7238
		7239	`* Build files`
		7240	`Handle the java generated descpkg files. These are a Manifest format with`
5710	dpurdie	7241	`VIX extensions.`

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

		7562
		7563	`* JAVA 1.4 and 1.5`
		7564	`Added support to the JATS JAVA platform to allow the user to specify`
		7565	`the version of Java to be used to build a package.`
		7566
		7567	`BuildPlatforms ( 'JAVA,--Version=1.5' );`
		7568
		7569	`The default will use the default machine version of JAVA.`
		7570	`This may not be sutable for all packages.`
		7571
		7572	`Non-default versions of JAVA require that an environment variable be`
		7573	`set to the root of the JDK directory. These are:`
		7574
		7575	`JAVA_HOME_1_4`
		7576	`JAVA_HOME_1_5`
		7577
		7578	`Minor changes:`
		7579	`* Script directive`

		7581	`These scripts are now always marked as executable.`
		7582
		7583	`* JATS environment`
		7584	`Ensure that all programs run under JATS in Windows have an uppercase`
		7585	`COMSPEC envvar. Windows appears to define a mixed case one. Fixed in`
		7586	`the JATS wrapper script.`
		7587
		7588	`* Label utility`
		7589	`Added -[no]checkout to control the labeling of checked out files.`
		7590	`There are three modes of operation:`
		7591	`1) -nocheckout Checked out files are not labeled`
		7592	`2) -checkout Only checked out files are labeled`

		7604	`This options retains the locked state of a label.`
		7605
		7606	`* AVR_IAR toolset`
		7607	`Extended the 'Prog' directive to allow a Program Loader to be`
		7608	`added to a program as it is created. The option is:`
		7609	`--ProgLoader=name`
		7610
		7611	`* Package directives. PackageFile`
		7612	`Added support for packaging of directory trees.`
		7613	`Options to do this are:`

		7616	`--FilterIn=regexp`
		7617	`--StripDir`
		7618
		7619	`Only a single directory can be specified.`
		7620	`Multiple filters are allowed.`
		7621	`The directories must be within the current directory. It is not`
		7622	`possible to search outside the subdirectory tree below the makefile.`
		7623
		7624	`The filters allow elements within the directory to be selected.`
		7625	`The filters are regular expressions. Examples:`
		7626
		7627	`'--FilterIn=\.h$' - Select all files ending with .h`
		7628	`'--FilterOut=MyHeader.h' - Except this one`
		7629
		7630	`The --StripDir option will remove the TreeDir directory from the`
		7631	`files. This allows the top level directory to be stripped off.`
		7632
		7633
		7634	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7635	`Version: JATS_2.39.0 Released: 14-Sep-05`
		7636	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7637	`Major changes:`
		7638	`* Make commands`
		7639	`Consolidated the parsing of the OPTIONS arguments.`
		7640
		7641	`The filter and nofilter options are globally applied to all tools`
		7642	`sets. ie: jats make debug OPTIONS=nofilter`
		7643
		7644	`* Label utility`
		7645	`Generate a warning when attempting to label a symbolic link.`
		7646	`Links are very hard to maintain in a reproducible manner.`
		7647
		7648	`Minor changes:`

		7650	`Replaced the use of c:\WINDOWS and c:\Program Files with suitable`
		7651	`variables and overrides.`
		7652

		7654	`This facility had been lost. The target was being used to provide`
		7655	`compiler sanity testing, but had was not being reliably run.`
		7656
		7657	`* Deployment`
		7658	`Suppress testing of compiler existence when used in conjunction`
		7659	`with deployment operations.`
		7660
		7661	`* Release utility`
		7662	`Add options to build only the debug or the production versions.`
		7663	`The default is to build both. Note: User option may be further`
		7664	`restricted by options within the build.`
		7665
		7666	`* PackageLib, InstallLib and MergeLib directives in makefile.pl`
		7667	`The use of @LIBS and @MLIBS in unix systems was causing a`
		7668	`problem as these variables already had a 'lib' prepended to the`
		7669	`list of libraries. These directives would add another 'lib' to the`
		7670	`list of libraries under unix causing a mismatch.`
		7671
		7672	`Corrected by stripping liblib from the names within these`
		7673	`directives.`
		7674
		7675	`* MakeProject directive`
		7676	`If the project build fails the log file was not being displayed`
		7677	`because 'make' stops when a command fails.`

		7720
		7721	`The need to use this this switch indicates that the view is NOT`

		7961	`* Support for Windows DLLs`
		7962	`When building a WIN32 target the file interface/set_WIN32.bat is`

		8045	`If whitespace did exist then the makefile.pl would not do what`

		8048
		8049	`* GenerateFiles directive within makefile.pl`

		8243
		8244	`* Preliminary Support`
		8245	`Global build options of --OnlyDebug and --OnlyProd, which are`

		8290
		8291	`* LinkPkgArchive and BuildPkgArchive will cause the build to fail if`

		8295
		8296	`Minor changes:`

		8499	`the make_shlib and the install_shlib into one phase. The`

		8550	`* SOLARIS toolset`
		8551	`Prevent the compiler displaying its command line. This is in line`

		8553	`OPTIONS=args and this may be set in the users environment.`
		8554
		8555	`Modified the cleanup process to delete the links to shared`

		8614	`1) Allow --Platform=xxx,yyy`
		8615	`Where xxx is a directory prefix and yyy is suffix to the`
		8616	`"platform" name. Only useful within the context of the`
		8617	`PackageFile`
		8618
		8619	`2) The operation of --Platform=xxx when used by the PackageFile`
		8620	`directive now treats the xxx directory as a prefix to the`
		8621	`platform name. Other Package directives still treat it as a`
		8622	`suffix. In practice this is the logical use.`
		8623
		8624	`* Allow InstallLib and PackageLib to install a file that has been`
		8625	`discovered with a "Src" directive. This allows generated files`
		8626	`to be installed and packaged.`
		8627
		8628	`Minor changes:`
		8629
		8630	`* cache_dpkg utility`
		8631	`If a package is found in the local_dpkg_archive then the cache`
		8632	`entry will be deleted and the master archive will not be accessed.`
		8633
		8634	`* label utility`
		8635	`New option -auto to create and label`
		8636
		8637	`* Build WIN32 and WinCe Mutual DLLs with all the object files`
		8638	`This allows the generated import library to contain C++ names`
		8639
		8640	`* The BuildDirTree directive now supports an empty first argument`
		8641	`This allows a NULL tree.dir file, while still creating the root`
		8642	`directory. ie:`
		8643
		8644	`BuildDirTree ( '', 'pkg' );`
		8645
		8646	`* Fixed DEVIM 00019520`
		8647	`The problem was that /bin/pwd could return a different path to`
		8648	`the Cwd:getpwd() function. Solution: Use one mechanism throughout.`
		8649
		8650
		8651	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8652	`Version: JATS_2.9.0 Released: 28-Feb-05`
		8653	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8654	`Major changes:`
		8655	`* First release for Back Office and Front Office use.`
		8656
		8657	`* Added the jats tool jats_rewrite.pl to rewrite build.pl files.`
		8658	`To be used by the nightly build process.`
		8659
		8660	`* Work around a problem in the Microtec 68K compiler.`
		8661	`The compiler uses temp files. If the temp file name that the`
		8662	`compiler uses already exists, then the compiler will not delete`
		8663	`the file. Instead it appends information to the existing file.`
		8664
		8665	`The workaround is to create the temp files within the build's`
		8666	`interface directory and to remove all temp files before each`
		8667	`compilation.`
		8668
		8669	`This bug does not affect the Mictotec CF compiler.`
		8670
		8671	`Minor changes:`
		8672	`* The "jats clobber" command will remove version definition file, if`
		8673	`one is being produced.`
		8674
		8675	`* Using JATS within a Visual Studio project. The "rebuild all"`
		8676	`option now translates to the JATS unbuild command to do a better`
		8677	`job of cleaning the workspace.`
		8678
		8679	`* Added GetPackageRoot() directive to support the packaging of MOS`
		8680
		8681	`* Generate error message for misuse of the SubDir directive`
		8682
		8683	`* Modified BuildName to allow an '-' in the name.`
		8684	`This provides backward compatibility with existing packages.`
		8685
		8686	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8687	`Version: JATS_2.8.0 Released: 17-Feb-05`
		8688	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8689	`Major changes:`
		8690	`* Added some new WINCE based targets. These require WINCE SDKs to be`
		8691	`installed in order for the compilers to work.`
		8692
		8693	`* New PLATFORMS are WCEIT3000, WCEPA961 and WCEPCM7220`
		8694
		8695	`* All invocations of xmake specify the name of the makefile`
		8696	`This allow GNUMakefiles and the Jats makefiles to exist in the`
		8697	`same directory`
		8698
		8699	`* Overcome a limitation of the Microtec compiler in which the flag`
		8700	`_DEBUG is defined enev in production builds - contrary to the`
		8701	`documenattion.`
		8702
		8703	`Minor changes:`
		8704	`* Process of descpkg files allows for both Unix and DOS line endings`
		8705	`Under Unix JATS would report that the package names don't match`
		8706
		8707	`* Corrected a problem with BuildPkgArchive in which file names with`
		8708	`spaces could not be soft linked. Only affects Unix systems.`
		8709
		8710	`* Added a -rename to the "jats label" utility.`
		8711	`Ensure that the user specified label exists in the VOB`
		8712
		8713	`* Correct problem with "make clean" that resulted in a verbose display`
		8714	`when the verbose option had not been selected`
		8715
		8716	`* Correct a problem with "make unbuild". Changes in the build files`
		8717	`would prevent the execution of the command. This command should`
		8718	`be exempt from this test.`
		8719
		8720	`* Correct a problem with "make clean" in the WIN32 and WINCE`
		8721	`platforms where the .exp files were not deleted.`
		8722
		8723	`* The "JATS clobber" command now invokes "make clobber" and "build`
		8724	`clobber". The result is as clean a clean as it can be.`
		8725
		8726	`Note: Jats "clean" does not remove a lot of files. These can be`
		8727	`removed with "unbuild" and "unpackage". This is what "clobber"`
		8728	`does.`
		8729
		8730	`* The operation of "build clobber" has been cleaned up. It will`
		8731	`not try to invoke make if the makefiles have already been removed.`
		8732
		8733
		8734	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8735	`Version: JATS_2.7.0 Released: 09-Feb-05`
		8736	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8737	`Major changes:`
		8738	`* First release with support for the DAFBR compiler`
		8739
		8740	`* Extended MergeLibrary. Added per-file options of:`
		8741	`--Interface - Pull lib from Interface directory`
		8742	`--Local - Pull lib from Local directory (default)`
		8743	`--SubDir=pathname - Pull lib from a subdirectory`
		8744	`Note: xxxx,pathname still works`
		8745
		8746	`* Added "jats label" to provide a number of useful labeling`
		8747	`operations.`
		8748
		8749	`* Added extensive help to JATS. JATS -man.`
		8750
		8751	`* Added this manual ChangeLog file`
		8752
		8753	`Minor changes`
		8754	`* Added an 'ebin' command to jats to allow the JATS binary tools to`
		8755	`be run in a controlled environment from the command line.`
		8756
		8757	`* Prune the list of library paths passed through to the various`
		8758	`toolsets. If a directory does not have any files in it then the`
		8759	`directory is not added to the library path.`
		8760
		8761	`Thus if a library is located in xxxx/lib/WIN32 then JATS will`
		8762	`not add the xxxx/lib to the path.`
		8763
		8764	`* cbuilder will now look in all VOBs for the user specified label.`
		8765	`The program has a list of "known" labels which it will search`
		8766	`first in an attempt to speed up the process.`
		8767
		8768	`* The AddFlags directive will issue a warning if the flags does not`
		8769	`begin with a -D or a -U. The user should not be using compiler`
		8770	`specific flags.`
		8771
		8772	`* The use of linker flags will issue a warning.`
		8773
		8774	`* Process the common makefile.pl after the toolset has been`
		8775	`determined. This allows the toolset to extend the CompileOptions`
		8776	`such they are available to the common makefile.pl.`
		8777
		8778	`* Added the WIN32 CompileOptions "jats_v1" to force JATS to specify`
		8779	`a number of compile time definitions used by earlier versions of`
		8780	`JATS.`
		8781
		8782	`* Fixed bug in the --Debug option to the PackageProg directives that`
		8783	`caused both the production and debug versions to be packaged.`
		8784
		8785	`* The gen_msproject utility now creates simpler names for the MS`
		8786	`projects that it creates. The name no longer contains the full`
		8787	`pathname, thus making them shorter and readable.`
		8788
		8789	`* The ShowDlls utility now handles absolute and relative paths to`
		8790	`the initial DLL or EXE.`
		8791
		8792	`* Correct problem in which the use of Generate/Rule directives may`
		8793	`fail since prerequisite subdirectories were not being created`
		8794	`since the "generate" phase was not being run.`
		8795
		8796	`Added messages to prompt the user to remove Generate, Generated`
		8797	`and Rule directives. Use the GenerateFiles directive`
		8798
		8799	`* JATS.BAT file will exclude LINUX builds by default.`
		8800
		8801	`* The make NODEPEND=1 processing now does not recurse at all.`
		8802	`Previously each subdirectory was visited - only to do nothing.`
		8803
		8804	`* Correct a problem in creating stub libraries for MOS targets if`
		8805	`the stub library object was not listed with the SharedLib's`
		8806	`objects.`
		8807
		8808	`* Correct a problem with the MS Studio support. The invoked make`
		8809	`command is XXX_all_debug. There was a problem with this command in`
		8810	`that it did not do any dependancy checking and would not always`
		8811	`build defendants.`
