		2846
377	dpurdie	2847	`A useful side effect of this change is that VS2010 running on`

		2869	`Debug information is created for both production and debug builds`
		2870	`Debug information is placed in a .dbg file, which is linked to the`
		2871	`executable, or shared library. The .dbg file is packaged in the manner`
		2872	`as the main binary.`
		2873
		2874	`This methodology does not bloat the binary with debug information, while`
		2875	`retaining debug information. The binary transferred to an embedded`
		2876	`device does not contain debug information, yet the image used in the`
		2877	`debugger can still access the debug information. This is the best of`
		2878	`both worlds.`

		2893	`* Jats Sandbox`
		2894	`Softlinks to packages within the sandbox are now relative to the root of`

		3567	`* New Utility: upddep - Update Dependencies`
		3568	`This utility will update the dependencies in a build.pl file to be`
		3569	`consistent with those of a given Release Manager Release. This simplifies`

		3571
		3572	`It will create an 'auto.pl' file, which JATS uses in preference to a`
		3573	`build.pl file. DO NOT check this file in.`
		3574
		3575	`See: 'jats upddep -help' - For brief help`
		3576	`'jats upddep -man' - For full manual`

		3583	`* MicroTec Compiler toolset`
		3584	`When creating a ShardLibrary (THX) report missing libraries before`
		3585	`compiling the objects that go into the THX.`

		3603	`all Jats Make directives. If making for the specified platform, then the`
		3604	`remainder of the arguments are inserted into the directives argument`
		3605	`stream.`
		3606
		3607	`Example:`
		3608

		3618
		3619	`* GCC Toolkit`
		3620	`Changes to the shared library dependency processing to bring it inline`
		3621	`with other toolers. Will terminate after determining that some`
		3622	`libraries cannot be found. This will ensure that the error message is at`
		3623	`the point of termination.`
		3624
		3625	`* Jats save_build utility`
		3626	`Corrected problem in unreserving a reserved checkout of a build.pl file`

		3628
		3629	`* Jats sandbox`

		3703
		3704	`* Solaris builds`
		3705	`Program and Shared library dependency checking is now done before`
		3706	`the program/library objects are built. Thus errors associated with missing`
		3707	`dependencies occur before objects are built and the user can see the cause`
		3708	`of the build failure.`
		3709

289	dpurdie	4020	`Version: 2.79.0000.cr Released: 10-Jun-09`
		4021	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		4022	`Major changes:`
		4023	`* New Platform: DELPHI7`
		4024	`Support the creation of Units,Libraries, Packages and Programs using`
		4025	`Borlands Delphi Version 7.`
		4026
		4027	`See Jats Reference Manual for complete details and Delphi specific options`
		4028	`to the Prog and SharedLib directives.`
		4029
		4030	`This toolset has a number of limitations:`
		4031	`1) It can build either Debug or Production, but not both, in a single`
		4032	`makefile.pl. This is caused by the Delphi limitation that library`
		4033	`names cannot be changed.`
		4034
		4035	`2) The generation of dependencies between the source and the generated`
		4036	`artifacts is very simplistic.`
		4037
		4038	`Units are generated with the 'Lib' directive. The name of the Unit and the`
		4039	`name of the source are linked. The source should not be provided.`
		4040	`ie: Lib ('*', 'MyUnit' );`
		4041	`Will create a unit called MyUnit.dcu from the source file 'MyUnit.pas'`
		4042
		4043	`Packages are generated with the SharedLib directive starting with a .dpk`
		4044	`file.`
		4045	`ie: SharedLib ( '*', 'MyPackage' );`
		4046	`will create a package called MyPackage.bpl/dcp from the source file`
		4047	`MyPackage.dpk.`
		4048
		4049	`Libraries are generated with the SharedLib directive starting with a .dpr`
		4050	`file.`
		4051	`ie: SharedLib ( '*', 'MyDll' );`
		4052	`will create a package called MyDll.dll/lib from the source file`
		4053	`MyDll.dpr.`
		4054
		4055	`Programs are generated with the Prog directive starting with a .dpr`
		4056	`file.`
		4057	`ie: Prog ( '*', 'MyProg' );`
		4058	`will create a package called MyProg.exe from the source file`
		4059	`MyProg.dpr.`
		4060
		4061	`Minor changes:`
		4062	`* New EnvVar: DELPHI7`
		4063	`Required only if Borland Delphi 7 has not being installed in the`
		4064	`standard location or if the Windows Short Name is not`
		4065	`c:\PROGRA~1\Borland\Delphi7`
		4066
		4067	`* BuildVersion directive`
		4068	`Added a 'Style' of 'Delphi' to allow the generation of version information`
		4069	`in a Delphi Unit.`
		4070
		4071	`Modified the operation of the "C" style generation.`
		4072	`If the name of the file is provided via '--File', then the generated files`
		4073	`will be 'known' to JATS and can be consumed from any makefile. JATS will`
		4074	`'know' the location of the files.`
		4075
		4076	`* Sanity test on the names of libraries and programs`
		4077	`Some characters are not allowed: ie: '/' as this is a mistake.`
		4078
		4079	`Internal Changes:`
		4080	`* ToolsetSHLD functions`
		4081	`Pass in the shared library version string as an argument`
		4082	`Means that the core of JATS can manage this information in a manner`
		4083	`that is decoupled from the toolsets.`
		4084
		4085	`* Reworked the mechanism used to hold data about libraries, shared libraries`
		4086	`merged libraries and programs. Created a class to manipulate build targets`
		4087	`and to maintain information about the contents of the targets.`

287	dpurdie	4103
		4104	`Minor changes:`

277	dpurdie	4166
279	dpurdie	4167	`JATS will automatically filter out target platforms that cannot be built`
		4168	`on the users machine. ie: It will not try to build Solaris targets on a`
		4169	`Windows machine. Thus, under the new scheme a Windows GBE_BUILDFILTER need`
281	dpurdie	4170	`not contain '!SOLARIS'`
279	dpurdie	4171
		4172	`This greatly simplifies the creation of GBE_BUILDFILTER as it does not`

279	dpurdie	4189	`* Sandbox command`
		4190	`Added build, make, clean, clobber commands`
		4191
		4192	`Sandbox packages may contain a file called 'stop', to exclude the`
		4193	`target from consideration in the build set.`
		4194
		4195	`* MCR Toolset`

		4218	`it contains 'jar' files.`
		4219
		4220	`Uses ANT 1.6 as the default version of ANT`
		4221
		4222	`Both changes will simplify the use of this command within the escrow`
		4223	`environment. ie: 'jats abt -buildfile=build1.xml'`
		4224
		4225	`* BuildVersion directive`
		4226	`Form:`

231	dpurdie	5107	`* Jats Tool: CCbc2 [DEVI-044908]`

		5121	`Major changes:`

		5123	`Jats can now release itself. This is not the same a building all of its`

		5126
		5127	`Jats releases will be tracked in Release Manager.`
		5128

		5157	`* Jats Tool: CCbc2`
		5158	`Added utility to use BeyondCompare (BC2) to compare files in two`
		5159	`packages defined as ClearCase labels. The utility creates two dynamic views`
		5160	`and starts BeyondCompare. The views are destroyed at the end of the`
		5161	`process.`
		5162
		5163	`Requires BeyondCompare to be installed in its default location.`
		5164	`Only works under Windows.`

		5171	`* Jats test runtime helper scripts set_PLATFORM.bat`
		5172	`Uses SETLOCAL / ENDLOCAL to prevent environment variables being exported`

		5177	`directory.`

		5218	`* WINCE toolsets`
		5219	`Added a run-time test for the presence of the required toolset`
		5220	`This will report an error if the required WINCE toolset has not been`

		5223
		5224	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		5225	`If the generating tool can only be found in the users path, don't make`

		5374	`A makefile.pl that is invoked from more than one other makefile.pl, or the`

		5394	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5395	`Version: 2.71.0.cr Released: 10-Oct-07`
		5396	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5397	`Major changes:`
		5398	`Makefile generation and make recursion`
		5399	`Extensive changes to the makefiles that are generated by JATS and method by`
		5400	`which JATS recuses through subdirectories during a build.`
		5401
		5402	`Summary of changes:`
		5403	`- Removed the use of 'make' to perform recursion over subdirectories`
		5404	`and platforms. This has been replaced by a JATS program that performs`
		5405	`the same task - only a great deal faster and with a greater scope for`
		5406	`flexibility.`
		5407
		5408	`The user interface remains identical: jats make ....`
		5409
		5410	`- Replaced the generated 'Makefile' with 'Makefile.gbe'. This is a text`
		5411	`file that provides sufficient information to allow JATS to locate the`
		5412	`interface directory and associated build information.`
		5413
		5414	`- Significant speed up in determining the need to rebuild a makefile.`
		5415	`On a large package this has been reduced from 30+ seconds to less`
		5416	`than one second.`
		5417
		5418	`- Significant speed up of large recursive builds through intelligent`
		5419	`building of the 'make_init' target. This is only processed once for`
		5420	`each platform type. Previously it was processed in each and every`
		5421	`makefile. This make target is used, internally, to perform sanity`
		5422	`testing of the compiler environment and to display the name of the`
		5423	`toolset. It is an expensive operation.`
		5424
		5425	`- Intelligent speed up of large recursive through better mechanism`
		5426	`for creating required directories. These are now created on the fly,`
		5427	`rather than via a slow recursive pass though all makefiles.`
		5428
		5429	`- Better makefile rebuilding`
		5430	`Makefiles can be rebuilt on the fly. The previous system was prone to`
		5431	`detecting that makefiles needs to be re-built, but then not re-`
		5432	`building them.`
		5433
		5434	`- Detection of build file changes`
		5435	`The make process will detect that the build file has been modified`
		5436	`and that the component has not been rebuilt. This is a warning. It`
		5437	`does not prevent the 'make' operation.`
		5438
		5439	`- Quieter make output`
		5440	`The 'Nothing to be done' message has been disabled.`
		5441
		5442
		5443	`Minor changes:`
		5444	`MakeAnt Directive`
		5445	`Allows ANT_HOME to be a path with spaces. ie: c:\Program Files\apache-ant-1.6.5`
		5446
		5447	`JATS command "debug" and "prod"`
		5448	`These now handle make arguments and options correctly. Thus the command:`
		5449	`jats prod WIN32 OPTIONS=args`
		5450	`Will correctly do a production build for WIN32 with command execution`
		5451	`display. Before, the system would attempt to process prod_OPTIONS=args.`
		5452
		5453	`CSHARP toolset`
		5454	`Correctly detect missing compiler directories`

		5548	`Minor changes:`
		5549	`* Reverted changes made in JATS_2.68.1 to the library search path`
		5550	`Although the search order is broken, we will need to live with it.`
		5551
		5552	`Addressed the search order of /usr/lib under Solaris by adding a new`

		5554	`last.`
		5555
		5556	`For the record, the search order for header files and libraries is:`

		5581	`Major changes:`
		5582
		5583	`Minor changes:`
		5584	`* Solaris Toolset`
		5585	`Corrected library search order, such that /usr/lib is search after the`

		5587
		5588	`* RunTest operation`

		5594	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5595	`Version: JATS_2.68.0 Released: 20-Aug-07`
		5596	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5597	`Major changes:`
		5598	`* Trap use of uncontrolled versions of 'ant' and the Java Compiler (javac)`
		5599
		5600	`It was discovered that a few old makefile.pl's where invoking ant and`
		5601	`javac directly in order to build small Java components. This was`
		5602	`normally being done in the guise of the WIN32 target. These packages`
		5603	`were making assumptions about the version of Java on the users search`
		5604	`path.`
		5605
		5606	`JATS can invoke ANT and build Java based components using the MakeAnt`
		5607	`directive and the JAVA platform. This method is controlled and`
		5608	`reproducible.`
		5609
		5610	`This release provides changes such that these packages will not build.`
		5611	`This is better than building incorrectly.`
		5612
		5613	`There are several aspects to the change`
		5614	`1) JATS provides binaries (ant and javac) with an error message. If`
		5615	`the user invoked ant/javac in a manner that involves searching the`
		5616	`PATH then these will be used and report an error.`
		5617
		5618	`2) A special command (jats abt) can be used to start up the Auto Build`
		5619	`Tool in a manner that does not alter the PATH seen by the utilities.`
		5620	`Moreover it does not alter the JAVA_HOME seen by the build. This is`
		5621	`controlled separately.`
		5622
		5623	`Minor changes:`
		5624	`* Sanitize the PATH environment variable`
		5625	`Ensure the JATS bin directory is the first directory searched`
		5626	`Remove duplicates`
		5627	`Place non-existent components at the end of the PATH`
		5628
		5629	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5630	`Version: JATS_2.67.1 Released: 17-Aug-07`
		5631	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5632	`Major changes:`
		5633
		5634	`Minor changes:`
		5635	`* Makefile sanity test`
		5636	`Added a test to ensure that makefiles created on a machine of one type are`
		5637	`not then run on a machine of a different type.`
		5638
		5639	`This will prevent files created on solaris-sparc being used on a solaris-`
		5640	`x86 machine.`
		5641
		5642	`* Correct bug in RunTest`
		5643	`RunTest now extends the PATH to include the local bin directory`
		5644
		5645	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5646	`Version: JATS_2.67.0 Released: 13-Aug-07`
		5647	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5648	`Major changes:`
		5649	`* RunTest directive`
		5650	`Added support for running tests within the NUNIT test framework for the`
		5651	`CSHARP target. In the process a generalized mechanism for accessing`
		5652	`toolset specific test frameworks has been added.`
		5653
		5654	`Changes to the directive to support a FrameWork.`
		5655	`The use of a test FrameWork is signaled with the option`
		5656	`--FrameWork=<name> If this is present then the raw name of the program`
		5657	`under test will be passed to the framework. program.`
		5658
		5659	`If a FrameWork is in use, then JATS will invoke the specified framework`
		5660	`builder within the current toolset.`
		5661
		5662	`When a framework is in place JATS will pass arguments of the form:`
		5663	`'--Tag=Text' to the FrameWork. Other options are processed as normal.`
		5664
		5665	`With in the Nunit FrameWork the program under test will be a DLL Nunit`
		5666	`will only operate on a DLL. The DLL must have been created by the makefile`
		5667	`containing the RunTest directive.`
		5668
		5669	`The Nunit Framework supports the following options:`
		5670	`--Uses=<Name>[,SubOption]+`
		5671
		5672	`This option specifies other DLLs that are used by the TestDLL. They will`
		5673	`be copied in to the test directory, and may be sourced from an external`
		5674	`package or the components 'local' lib directory.`
		5675
		5676	`SubOptions available to The --Uses directive are:`
		5677	`--NonJats This is not a JATS built library. It will not have a`
		5678	`P or D suffix.`
		5679	`--Jats (Default) This is a JATS built library. JATS will`
		5680	`select the correct library type for this build.`
		5681
		5682	`Minor changes:`
		5683	`* New Cache cleanup mechanism`
		5684	`When a package is consumed from the 'cache' a flag is updated within`
		5685	`the cache. The cache aging routines use this file in preference to`
		5686	`the descpkg file, thus it will prevent the aging of packages that are`
		5687	`frequently used. The aging policy can be made more aggressive.`
		5688
		5689	`* Save Build Utility`
		5690	`This utility is used by the Auto Build System to save the 'build.pl' file`
		5691	`used in a ripple build.`
		5692
		5693	`The utility has been enhanced to detect a reserved checkout of the`
		5694	`build.pl. The checkout will be changed to unreserved - if possible.`
		5695
		5696	`* Release Utility`
		5697	`The 'jats release' command will now unlock any labels that it locked`
		5698	`when an error is encountered.`
		5699
		5700	`This simplifies the 'release' process as the developers label will be`
		5701	`unlocked if a build error occurs.`
		5702
		5703	`* Jats caching local copy of itself`
		5704	`Fixed a bug which resulted in an "Use of individualized value" message`
		5705	`being displayed a large number of times during the file transfer process.`
		5706
		5707	`* Minor extension to allow plug-in directives to perform a processing step`
		5708	`before the makefiles are created.`
		5709
		5710	`* TestProg directive`
		5711	`TestProg's are now built in exactly the same manner as Progs`
		5712
		5713	`* Correct problem introduced in 2.66.1 with packaging of files with`
		5714	`a 'space' or '$' in the file name.`
		5715
		5716	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`

		5718	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5719	`Major changes:`
		5720	`* New build target`

		5722	`LMOS_LINUX_ETX - Support for LMOS on the LINUX_ETX target`
		5723
		5724	`These targets have also been added to the following pseudo targets.`
		5725	`DEVLINUX`
		5726	`LMOS_DEVLINUX`
		5727
		5728	`* Internal utility dpkg_cache [Windows]`
		5729	`Modified to remove use of system utilities to perform the the file`
		5730	`transfer, after having problems the 'cp.exe' provided by JATS.`
		5731
		5732	`Minor changes:`
		5733	`* Added utility class to provide directory searching`
		5734	`To be used in JATS and JATS support tools`

		5737	`Correct problem with filename that start with "n" as in .\not_nice.cs`
		5738
		5739	`Create resource files with Fully Qualified Names derived from the .resx`
		5740	`and .cs files.`
		5741
		5742	`Handle Strong Key Names and creates wrappers to provide do the right`
		5743	`thing.`
		5744
		5745	`* Microtec ColdFire compiler`
		5746	`Further attempts to get the compiler to place all of its temp files in a`
		5747	`local directory. The compiler uses a large number of EnVars to control`
		5748	`were it places temp files.`
		5749
		5750	`Underlying problem is random compiler failures on big builds. Suspected`
		5751	`interaction with other builds.`
		5752
		5753	`* Release utility command`
		5754	`Added a -tag=name option to allow the Auto Build Tools to create`
		5755	`multiple instances of a static view. The tag is used to provide a unique`
		5756	`component in the clearcase tag name.`

		5842	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5843	`Version: JATS_2.65.1 Released: 30-May-07`
		5844	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5845	`Major changes:`
		5846	`* Provided a mechanism by which JATS makefile.pl directives can be extended`
		5847	`through modules provided by external packages. This will be used to reduce`
		5848	`the dependancy on JATS of various packaging processes.`
		5849
		5850	`* GenerateFiles`
		5851	`Added the options:`
		5852	`--UnknownPreq - Will force the recipe to be run every time`
		5853	`the generated files are required. May be used`
		5854	`when the dependancies are too complex to`
		5855	`describe. ie: Entire directory tree.`
		5856
		5857	`--AutoGenerate - Will not force the recipe to be run during the`
		5858	`'generate' phase, unless the recipe generates`
		5859	`source files. Allows recipes to be run very`
		5860	`late. ie: when the dependent files are actually`
		5861	`required.`
		5862
		5863
		5864	`Minor changes:`
		5865	`* GenerateFile directive`
		5866	`Added --Var(BuildRoot)`
		5867
		5868	`* GCC Toolset`
		5869	`Creating Shared Libaries with a 'Def' file. The library is now dependent`
		5870	`on the Def file, such that changes to the Def file will cause the library to`
		5871	`be rebuilt.`
		5872
		5873	`* MakeAnt and MakeProject directives`
		5874	`Preserve the order in which projects are built.`

		5879	`Major changes:`
		5880	`* Access to Release Manager and Deployment Manager databases`
		5881	`The database location, user and password have been made configurable via`
		5882	`environment variables.`
		5883
		5884	`Reason: The Release Manager and Deployment Manager databases are being`
		5885	`moved.`
		5886
		5887	`This will affect users that:`
		5888	`1) Use tools that access RM or DM`
		5889	`Some tools that build deployable packages`
		5890
		5891	`2) Use the ABT system`
		5892	`The buildadm user, and the ABT scripts will be modified to provide`
		5893	`the required configuration`
		5894
		5895	`If you need to use tools that access RM or DM, outside of the ABT scripts on`
		5896	`the build machine then you will need to add the following environment`
		5897	`definitions to your .profile_bash, or jats.bat.`

		5929	`The TP5600* targets should be removed to make it obvious that these packages`
		5930	`need to be converted.`
		5931
		5932	`* Building Linux Device Drivers`
		5933	`The hard-coded path to the Kernel Headers has been removed.`
		5934	`Linux Drivers must be built with a suitable package to provide`

		5995
		5996	`LMOS_TP5600 is a tag that will be expanded to the entire family of LMOS_TP5600`

		5999
		6000	`LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI and LMOS_TP5600_EMU`
		6001	`These are LMOS based targets. The 'lmos' package must be used in order to`

		6003
		6004	`The LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI can use components from the TP5600_ARM9TDMI,`

		6011	`This is a tag that will be expanded to all the known WINCE targets.`
		6012	`Use of this platform will simplify the creation of components for`
		6013	`consumption on all WINCE machines.`

		6027	`The WINCE targets actually built will be affected by GBE_BUILDFILTER.`
		6028
		6029	`* JATS makefile.pl`
		6030	`The package descriptor file, 'descpkg', will be packaged in all makefiles`

		6037	`* Directive: PackageFile`
		6038	`Generate a warning if the source file name does not confirm to good naming`

		6045	`* JATS Internal utility: cmdfile`
		6046	`Updated Linux and Solaris targets with a version of the cmdfile that`
		6047	`provides a better error message for libraries that cannot be found.`
		6048
		6049	`This version will display the library search path with one item per line,`

		6053	`Version: JATS_2.63.0 Released: 5-Apr-07`
		6054	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6055	`Major changes:`
		6056
		6057	`* JATS release command`
		6058	`Modified the configuration spec generated when a branching rule is`
		6059	`specified. The change will ensure that directories are not branched.`
		6060
		6061	`Rules are:`
		6062	`Modify a file: File will branch`
		6063	`Adding a file: Containing directory will not branch`
		6064	`File will be placed on a branch`
		6065	`Add a directory: Containing directory will not branch`
		6066	`New directory will branch`
		6067
		6068	`Minor changes:`
		6069	`* JATS release command`
		6070	`Added -noprefex option to allow the creation of a view directory without the`
		6071	`user name being prefixed to it. This is useful in creating an escrow view.`
		6072
		6073	`* JATS label command`
		6074	`Detect and report parent directories that are checkedout when a label`
		6075	`is applied. Previously these had gone unreported.`
		6076
		6077	`* JATS make`
		6078	`Undo previous change to preserve symbolic links while Packaging and`
		6079	`Installing files. A problem was encountered when a file from a package`
		6080	`was re-packaged.`
		6081
		6082	`* JATS escrow`
		6083	`Added a tool to generate information for creating an escrow drop.`
		6084	`Use jats escrow -help for details`
		6085
		6086	`* makefile.pl directive: MakeAnt`
		6087	`This directive will create parameters to specify the location of external java`
		6088	`packages that have been referenced via a LinkPkgArchive directive.`
		6089
		6090	`This allows the build.xml to contruct a CLASSPATH to access JAR files in`
		6091	`packages, without the overhead of copying the entire package into the`
		6092	`interface directory.`
		6093
		6094	`* build.pl directive: BuildPkgArchive`
		6095	`Modified the processing of 'jar' directories.`
		6096	`Directories of the form 'jar.<target>' will be transferred into the 'jar'`
		6097	`directory as seen by the package.`
		6098
		6099	`Intended use: Deployment of oraclient for Solaris 10`
		6100
		6101	`* JAVA 6`
		6102	`JATS now supports all versions of Java through the use of JAVA_HOME_X_Y`
		6103	`environment variables. Where X andY specify the version of JAVA.`
		6104
		6105	`The jats.bat and jats.sh example files only provide indication of 1.4, 1.5`
		6106	`and 1.6 support, but all versions are now supported.`
		6107
		6108	`The "jats vars -v" command will display all JAVA_HOME environment variables`
		6109
		6110	`* Jats command: vars`
		6111	`Extended to show a "*" for EnvVars that do not address a valid directory`
		6112	`These indicate potential problems.`

		6115	`Version: JATS_2.62.4 Released: 20-Mar-07`
		6116	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6117	`Major changes:`
		6118	`* JATS create_dpkg + packageing shared libraries (Unix)`
		6119	`When a shared library is created a simple symbolic link to the versioned`
		6120	`libarry is also created.`
		6121
		6122	`Previous versions of JATS would replace the symbolic link with a physical`
		6123	`copy of the file. The effect of this is that when the shared libaries is`
		6124	`'Installed', 'Packaged' and transferred into dpkg_archive there are two`
		6125	`files, instead of one file and one link to the file (in the same directory)`
		6126	`The Solaris shared libraries can be quite large, due to the debug`
		6127	`information contained within the file.`
		6128
		6129	`This version of JATS will preserve symbolic links when 'Installing',`
		6130	`'Packaging' and transferring to dpkg_archive.`
		6131
		6132	`The advantage of this will be significant reduction in disk space used`
		6133	`within the build environment and dpkg_archive.`
		6134
		6135	`* Building Perl Modules`
		6136	`Modified the process to prevent the module builder attempting to modify the`
		6137	`documentation on the build machine.`
		6138
		6139	`Integrated the 'jats clean' operation.`
		6140
		6141	`Minor changes:`
		6142	`* jats create_dpkg`
		6143	`Added an option to create a built.generic file`
		6144	`This is only used by the Automated Built Tools.`
		6145
		6146	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6147	`Version: JATS_2.62.3 Released: 28-Feb-07`
		6148	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6149	`Major changes:`
		6150	`* JATS JAVA build target`
		6151	`The default behaviour of the JAVA build target has changed such that the`
		6152	`default version of JAVA used will be 1.4.`
		6153
		6154	`Previous behaviour was to use whichever version was specified by the EnvVar`
		6155	`JAVA_HOME. This was not controlled, thus the build was not controlled.`
		6156	`Problems occur when using the new AutoBuildTool as it uses Java 1.5 and this`
		6157	`is then picked up as the default version.`
		6158
		6159	`If a version, other than 1.4, is required then specify it within the`
		6160	`build.pl file.`
		6161
		6162	`Minor changes:`
		6163	`* jats release`
		6164	`Ensure that the 'cleartool' command can be found in the users PATH`
		6165	`Issue an error if it cannot be found.`
		6166	`This error indicates bad DevEnv setup`
		6167
		6168	`Added facility to create a view based on a config_spec, instead of a label.`
		6169	`Such a view cannot be used to create a release. It is intended to simplify`
		6170	`the creation of simple static views. The name of view is, by default,`
		6171	`based on the name of the config spec. Use the -view=name option to change`
		6172	`the name of the view.`
		6173
		6174	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		6175	`Added new --Vars() to allow packaging of JATS plugin tools.`
		6176
		6177	`* MOS Toolset`
		6178	`When using MOS fast intermodule calls the optimizer will preload commonly`
		6179	`used memory addresses into a register BEFORE the GDP has been correctly set`
		6180	`up. Use the following option to suppress this optimization`
		6181
		6182	`Added: CompileOptions ('*', 'NoGlobalOptimization' );`

		6188	`Major changes:`
		6189
		6190	`Minor changes:`
		6191	`* JATS environment`
		6192	`Ensure that the true path of the Perl executable is present in the PATH`
		6193	`environment variable. This allows build tool access to various perl utilities`
		6194	`that are located in the Perl bin directory.`
		6195
		6196	`Resolves issues in locating utilities such as pod2html`
		6197
		6198	`* Use of GENERIC platforms`
		6199	`Report an error if a GENERIC platform is mixed with any other platform`
		6200	`specifier. GENERIC is used for packages that build on all machines because`
		6201	`they do not use a compiler or linker. They simply contains files that need`
		6202	`to be packaged.`
		6203
		6204	`* Generated makefiles`
		6205	`Solaris and Linux: Ensure that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is exported if it is used.`
		6206
		6207	`* Generating MOS THX files`
		6208	`Added option --BinaryImage to the SharedLib directive used to create MOS THX`
		6209	`files. This option will create a binary image (.bin) instead of a .thx file.`
		6210	`This is being used in the creation of BR Applets.`
		6211
		6212	`SharedLib ( 'MOS', "xxx", @OBJS, "--Rel=xxx.rel", "--BinaryImage" );`
		6213

		6219
		6220	`* JATS Toolset`
		6221	`Added support for the WinCe PSION (WCEPSION_420)`
		6222	`This is a armv4i device using 4.20 of the WCE SDK`

		6228	`Major changes:`
		6229
		6230	`Minor changes:`
		6231	`* jats label`
		6232	`Added a -vob=name option`
		6233	`This allwos the label utility to create, lock, unlock, rename and delete`
		6234	`labels without the user actually being located within the VOB. This option`
		6235	`cannot be used in conjunction with operations that place labels on files.`
		6236	`It can only be used for operations that manipulate the label.`
		6237
		6238	`Added a -user=name option`
		6239	`This extends the operation of the -mine operation to change ownership of the`
		6240	`label to the named user.`
		6241
		6242	`* jats release`
		6243	`Displays the path to the view and the build file in a user friendly manner`
		6244	`Under Windows it uses \, unless running under cygwin.`
		6245
		6246	`* JATS build.pl`
		6247	`BuildProduct supports the --Uses=xxxx construct on a per-target basis.`
		6248	`ie:`

		6257	`These directives have been extended to allow a large number of makefile`
		6258	`values to be added to the command lines,without resorting to knowledge of`
		6259	`the makefile internals. ie:`
		6260	`--Var(BuildName)`
		6261	`will be expanded to (hen building MyPackage)`
		6262	`-BuildName=MyPackage`
		6263
		6264	`The complete list of Variables is provided in the JATS manual.`
		6265
		6266	`* GenerateFiles`

		6281	`--Shell is now processed by the 'make' shell rather then invoking an`
		6282	`external shell. It will be the same shell, just easier to setup.`
		6283
		6284
		6285	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6286	`Version: JATS_2.61.3 Released: 14-Dec-06`
		6287	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6288	`Major changes:`
		6289	`* Caching JATS`
		6290	`Added a mechanism whereby JATS can cache a copy of itself on the users local`
		6291	`drive. This is applicable to windows.`
		6292
		6293	`This mechanism will allow a user to address JATS via the soft-links in`
		6294	`dpkg_archive and pick up the current version of JATS without the penalty of`
		6295	`then using JATS across a slow(network) link.`
		6296
		6297	`The EnvVar GBE_CACHE_JATS controls the operation of this feature.`
		6298	`Set GBE_CACHE_JATS to one to enable the operation, but it will only be`
		6299	`effective if JATS is being run from GBE_DPKG in the first place.`
		6300
		6301	`Use: Build Machines and Windows Users`
		6302
		6303	`Minor changes:`
		6304	`* Build directive: BuildAlias with --Target option`
		6305	`Corrected a problem when the target name is a expanded platform name (ie:`
		6306	`TP5600) that prevent correct expansion.`
		6307
		6308	`* jats build`
		6309	`If the user has not configured a cache, then do not attempt to cache`
		6310	`packages. This will remove an annoying warning message for each package`
		6311	`processed by the build.`
		6312
		6313	`* jats build`
		6314	`Modified the error messages generated when JATS fails to create the`
		6315	`makefiles. The previous system would report failures while creating`
		6316	`makefiles and, at the end of the process, it would generate a large error`
		6317	`message to indicate the failure. This large message diverted the users`
		6318	`from reading the other error messages resulting in confusion.`
		6319
		6320	`* PackageFile, PackageLib, PackageProg and PackageHdr`
		6321	`Detect and report as an error use of the --Dir=<Path> option where the`
		6322	`Path is not specified.`
		6323
		6324	`Most instances of this error will be where the option has been mis-used in`
		6325	`conjunction with a package.pl file, or during transition from using a`
		6326	`package.pl file. That change is detects errors where the user has specified`
		6327	`--Dir=$Pinc`
		6328	`but $Pinc is not defined.`
		6329
		6330	`* Purify and Purecov under Windows`
		6331	`Changes to correct the operation of Rational's tools when used on the`
		6332	`Windows platform.`
		6333
		6334	`- OPTIONS=purecov`
		6335	`Forces the link operations to generate the relocation table required`
		6336	`by 'purecov.`
		6337
		6338	`Does not attempt to use purecov in the compiler tool chain`
		6339	`This is required under Solaris, but not Windows`
		6340
		6341	`- OPTIONS=purify`
		6342	`Does not attempt to use purecov in the compiler tool chain`
		6343	`This is required under Solaris, but not Windows.`
		6344	`Under WIndows this option does nothing.`

		6348	`Version: JATS_2.61.2 Released: 27-Nov-06`
		6349	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6350	`Major changes:`
		6351	`* makefile.pl directive Platform`
		6352	`This directive has been expanded to allow for the negation operation`
		6353	`Example:`
		6354	`Platform ('!MOSCF');`
		6355	`Process makefile for all targets other than MOSCF`
		6356	`This is the same as Platform ('*', '!MOSCF');`
		6357
		6358	`Excluded platform will be processed after included platforms have`
		6359	`been determined.`
		6360
		6361	`Minor changes:`
		6362	`* Added the ScanList directive.`
		6363	`This directive allows a list of files within an external package to be`
		6364	`located at build-time.`
		6365
		6366	`* Unix based systems`
		6367	`If the EnvVar LD_LIBRARY_PATH was undefined, then a warning would be`
		6368	`generated by make under some conditions. The warning has been removed.`
		6369
		6370	`* MakeLinuxDriver`
		6371	`Added a --Define=text option to allow "defines" to be passed to the`
		6372	`driver being built.`

		6403
		6404	`GenerateFiles.`
		6405	`Added option: --NoGenerate to indicate that the directive does`

		6413
		6414	`* GCC Toolset (Used to build Linux)`
		6415	`Added options to allow the generation of statically linked programs.`
		6416	`There are two mechanism:`
		6417
		6418	`Globally within the makefile.pl, or if applied in the common makefile.pl`
		6419	`the option can apply to all programs being built.`
		6420
		6421	`CompileOptions ( 'platform', 'StaticProgs' ); - Generate static programs`
		6422	`CompileOptions ( 'platform', 'No_StaticProgs' ); - Default`
		6423
		6424	`Within the Prog directive, the following options will override the global`

		6432	`Major changes:`
		6433	`* SunWorks Toolset`
		6434	`Better determination of the location of the SunWorks compiler and library`
		6435	`Does not use an environment variable to locate compiler libraries`
		6436	`It is based on machine type.`

		6453	`Altered the mechanism used to determine cross compilation`
		6454	`Extended the cross compilers that can be handled by the toolset`
		6455	Removed the use of `uname`.
		6456
		6457	`* Added platforms`
		6458	`TP5600 ( Expands to TP5600_ARM9TDMI and TP5600_EMU )`
		6459	`TP5600_ARM9TDMI`
		6460	`TP5600_EMU`

		6472	`This is an attempt to solve a infrequent problem seen when multiple builds`
		6473	`are being performed. The 68k compiler already had a similar fix to address a`
		6474	`similar, but more pronounced, issue.`
		6475
		6476	`* Atmel toolset (DEVI-031788)`
		6477	`New Products: AT90SC7272C and AT90SC3232CS`
		6478	`The AT90SC3232CS is identical to the existing AT3232`

		6544	`Theses are:`
		6545	`SOLARIS_SPARC`
		6546	`SOLARIS_AMD`
		6547	`These may be used to limit operations to only flavor of SOLARIS. eg: The`
		6548	`utility 'rtc_patch_area' is only usable on sparc machines.`
		6549

		6576	`Major changes:`
		6577
		6578	`Minor changes:`
		6579	`* WIN32 and WINCE toolsets`
		6580	`SharedLib operation. Added an option to allow the creation of a 'stub'`
		6581	`library without creating the body of the library:`

		6617	`Initial release.`
		6618
		6619	`* Packaging directives`
		6620	`Added option --OsCommon to allow files and header files to be packed into`
		6621	`a directory known to all platforms being built for a common OS.`
		6622
		6623	`Currently this is only supported to target platforms based on`
		6624	`SOLARIS`
		6625	`WIN32`
		6626
		6627	`* Removal of support for badly formed packages`
		6628	`As of this release libraries that exist in the <packagename>/lib directory`
		6629	`will not be available to JATS. These libraries are in the incorrect`
		6630	`directory. They MUST be in a directory that indicates the intended purpose`
		6631	`of the library. A .so library cannot be used on all machines ( linux,`
		6632	`solaris-sparc, solaris-amd ... ).`
		6633
		6634	`* Build Platform target name expansion facility`
		6635	`The build targets of SOLARIS and LINUX are seen as expandable names. They`
		6636	`will be expanded to suitable targets - depending on the host machine .`
		6637
		6638
		6639	`Minor changes:`

		6642	`Generate a suitable error message if it cannot be found.`
		6643
		6644	`* Utility: JATS RELEASE`
		6645	`Added a -root=dirname to allow the user to place the created view at a given`
		6646	`location`
		6647
		6648	`Added GBE_VIEWBASE to provide a globally configured mechanism for`
		6649	`controlling the view location. Performs the same job as -root=xxxx`
		6650
		6651	`* Utility genrc`
		6652	`Added the company name to the copyright string`
		6653
		6654	`* Utility: jats_save_build`
		6655	`Added option: -new`
		6656	`This option forces the saved file only a new branch.`
		6657	`The option can be used to save a build.pl file onto a new project-specific`
		6658	`branch. Useful when branching an entire release.`
		6659
		6660	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6661	`Added options to allow project suffixes to be replaced.`
		6662	`Use: Convert a .syd project to a .bej project.`
		6663
		6664	`* Deprecated features: package.pl and tree.dir`
		6665	`These two build features are being deprecated. They are not suitable for`
		6666	`migration to other SOLARIS based platforms.`
		6667
		6668	`The Package directives provide sufficient power to replace the package.pl`
		6669	`features - in a uniform manner.`
		6670
		6671
		6672	`Internal Changes:`
		6673	`* Major rework of the JATS BuildPlatform, BuildAlias an BuildProducts`
		6674	`directives, together with the mechanism used to describe the platform builds.`
		6675
		6676	`Introduced a CFG/<PLATFORM>.CFG file to provide:`
		6677	`1) Platform information available at build time`
		6678	`2) Dynamic platform names`
		6679
		6680	`* Major rework of the 'SOLARIS' platform`
		6681	`The SOLARIS platform will generate one or more targets, depending on the`
		6682	`machine on which the platform is invoked.`
		6683
		6684	`Consolidated a number of SOLARIS specific kludges and converted them into`
		6685	`configurable items. These kludges are really on applicable to the`
		6686	`SOLARIS8_SPARC32 platform. New SOLARIS builds will be well formed.`
		6687
		6688	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6689	`Formalized a number of kludges in operation of the SOLARIS8 under sparc32`
		6690	`platform. These are configured early in the build process and are no longer`
		6691	`needed.`
		6692
		6693	`A side effect of this work is that files from external packages may be`
		6694	`located in 'SOLARIS', 'SOLARIS_sparc' or 'sparc' directories. The change`
		6695	`should be transparent as the consumer tools should be able to handle`
		6696	`files from all of these.`

		6708	`Version: JATS_2.55.0 Released: 3-Aug-06`
		6709	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6710	`Major changes:`
		6711	`* Jats wrapper: Specify version of JATS to be used`
		6712	`Added a -version=xxxx option to force JATS to use a specific version of`
		6713	`JATS. The same operation can be achieved by setting GBE_JATS_VERSION.`
		6714
		6715	`The required version MUST be found in one of the known archives.`
		6716
		6717	`JATS will attempt to cache the version of JATS to assist in speeding up`
		6718	`the operations.`
		6719
		6720	`The version option MUST be the first option.`
		6721
		6722	`The version option MUST be followed by a '--' option.`
		6723	`This prevents JATS parsing other options and recursion issues.`
		6724
		6725	`Example: jats -version=2.54.3.cr -- build`
		6726
		6727	`* Migrated the "jats install" functionality out of the jats wrapper script`
		6728	`and into the create_dpkg utility. This is transparent to the user.`
		6729
		6730	`* Utility: create_dpkg`
		6731	`Added a '-quiet' option to allow use within scripts`
		6732	`Extended the built-in help`

		6734	`Migrate code to a common error reporting mechanism`
		6735

		6737	`Added support for the WCEPA962 target.`
		6738
		6739	`* M16 toolset as used in building MCRFirmware`
		6740	`Added a --MotOnly option to the Prog directives. MOT files`
		6741	`are used in the creation of bootstraps.`
		6742
		6743	`Minor changes:`
		6744	`* JATS wrapper script`
		6745	`Added a -ABT=xxx option to allow the Auto Build Tool to be invoked from`
		6746	`the command line.`
		6747
		6748	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6749	`Modified so that it will display changes. These will then be present in the`
		6750	`ABT log so that a developer can see which packages have been rippled.`
		6751
		6752	`Internal Changes:`
		6753	`* Common Error Reporting`
		6754	`Will use environment variables to control DEBUG and VERBOSE levels`
		6755	`for individual users. A module reporting with a name of XXXX will use EnvVars`
		6756	`of GBE_XXXX_VERBOSE and GBE_XXXX_DEBUG to control the debug and VERBOSE`
		6757	`level.`
		6758
		6759	`Force flushing after a "Question" is asked to ensure that the prompt is`
		6760	`displayed.`
		6761
		6762	`Enable autoflush for both STDOUT and STDERR.`
		6763
		6764	`* Added JatsSystem module`

		6774	`.def files to include other files.`
		6775
		6776	`* IAR toolset`
		6777	`Added AT7272 support`
		6778
		6779	`* Tool: jats_manifest`
		6780	`Added links to a suitable md5sum program on target platforms`

		6793	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6794	`Version: JATS_2.54.1 Released: 29-Jun-06`
		6795	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6796	`Major changes:`
		6797
		6798	`Minor changes:`
		6799	`* Mictotec toolset`
		6800	`Assembler files. Define DEBUG in debug builds and NDEBUG in production`
		6801	`builds.`
		6802
		6803	`* JATS Core`
		6804	`Added GBE_ABT. This is used by the Auto Build Tool to indicate that an`
		6805	`auto build is in progress. It may be used by various tools to modify their`
		6806	`behaviour.`
		6807
		6808	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6809	`Version: JATS_2.54.0 Released: 22-Jun-06`
		6810	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6811	`Major changes:`
		6812	`* Removal of non-core deployment functionality from JATS.`
		6813	`Deployment package will be affected.`
		6814
		6815	`The build.pl file of deployment package will need to import deployment`
		6816	`support with a BuildPkgArchive directive. ie:`
		6817
		6818	`BuildPkgArchive ( 'deployfiles', '1.0.0.cr' );`
		6819
		6820	`This version of deployfiles contains the same functionality as that provided`
		6821	`by the previous version of JATS. Version 2 of this package will be the start`
		6822	`of a deployment system that will provide support for building InstallShield`
		6823	`packages.`
		6824
		6825	`* Deployment support utilities must be run under JATS`
		6826	`The environment required for the deployment support utilities is complex`
		6827	`and is provided by the JATS wrapper script.`
		6828
		6829	`This is a change in usage. Instead of running the program 'updatenodespec'`
		6830	`the user will need to run 'jats updatenodespec'`
		6831
		6832	`Minor changes:`
		6833	`* SubDir directive`
		6834	`Added a sanity test to detect the case when a 'SubDir' directive specifies`
		6835	`a directory from two different makefiles.`
		6836
		6837	`* Tools: Dependancy generator mkdepend`
		6838	`If an include file was referenced by a symbolic name, then the generated`
		6839	`dependancy information would be wrong for all but the first occurrence`
		6840	`of the file usage.`
		6841
		6842	`* New utility: jats_manifest`
		6843	`Used by the build system to generate and validate source files.`
		6844	`Beta Release: Windows only at the moment`
		6845
		6846	`* Unit tests under SOLARIS_sparc`
		6847	`The LD_LIBRARY_PATH has been modified to correctly pick up libraries`
		6848	`generated within the build and have been installed locally.`
		6849
		6850	`* Default behaviour of JATS the wrapper script`
		6851	`This has been changed. Previous unknown commands were passed to make.`
		6852	`In this release unknown comamnds will be treated a 'etool' commands and`
		6853	`will execute a JATS extended command.`
		6854
		6855
		6856	`Internal Changes:`
		6857	`* Code refactor`
		6858	`Created JatsEnv to encapsulate functionality that was multiply defined.`
		6859
		6860	`* Deployment utilities`
		6861	`The Perl module Ignorelist.pm and the .ccignore file`
		6862	`Changed the mechanism by which this module locates a .ccignore file.`
		6863	`The .ccignore file has been moved to the same directory as the module and`
		6864	`the module can locate the file.`
		6865
		6866	`Previously the module required an environment variable in order to locate`
		6867	`the file, which was in a fixed location anyway.`
		6868
		6869	`* JATS core`
		6870	`Removed the use of the environment variable PERLINC.`
		6871
		6872	`Better parsing of descpkg files.`
		6873
		6874	`* JATS core debugging: JatsError.pm`
		6875	`Allow control over the debug and verbose messages of specific programs`
		6876	`through the use of environment variables.`
		6877
		6878	`A program reporting errors as "name" can be controlled via environment`
		6879	`variables GBE_name_VERBOSE and GBE_name_DEBUG.`
		6880
		6881	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6882	`Modified the subdirectories transferred with this directive to include:`
		6883	`deployfiles - as used by the deployment system`
		6884	`tools/scripts - as used by perl based extensions`
		6885
		6886	`* Make environment`
		6887	`Extended the PERL5LIB path seen by perl programs executed under make to`
		6888	`include 'tools/script' directories that contain Perl Modules.`
		6889
		6890
		6891	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6892	`Version: JATS_2.53.2 Released: 13-Jun-06`
		6893	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6894	`Major changes:`
		6895	`* Deployment. GetMassInstId.rul (From George Christidis)`
		6896	`Added support for SILENT_MODE`
		6897
		6898
		6899	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6900	`Version: JATS_2.53.1 Released: Not release`
		6901	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6902
		6903	`Not Released.`
		6904	`This label waas used as a place keeper. This version was not used as a basis`
		6905	`for JATS_2.53.2. Its much closer to JATS_2.54.0.`
		6906
		6907
		6908	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6909	`Version: JATS_2.53.0 Released: 11-Apr-06`
		6910	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6911	`Major changes:`
		6912	`* Deployment Scripts: Release Manager Database Access`
		6913	`The mechanism for communicating with the Release Manager Database has been`
		6914	`radically replaced.`
		6915
		6916	`A test tool has been added to prove connectivity to Release Manager.`
		6917	`Usage:`
		6918	`jats etool test_rmconnection`
		6919
		6920	`The pervious scripts used DBI::ODBC to communicate with the Oracle`
		6921	`Database that contains Release Manager. There were a number of problems with`
		6922	`this solution:`
		6923	`- Required the installation of two Perl Modules`
		6924	`- Required the installation of an Oracle client`
		6925	`- Required the use of an ODBC bridge machine when used on Solaris`
		6926	`- Support for Perl within Oracle appears to be on the decline`
		6927
		6928	`The solutions uses a Java application and Java's jdbc. The oracle:thin`
		6929	`client is used as this does not require any installation or configuration in`
		6930	`order to work.`
		6931
		6932	`JATS overrides Perl's DBI package with a package of the same name, but`
		6933	`reduced functionality.`
		6934
		6935
		6936	`Minor changes:`
		6937	`* makefile.pl directive: SetValue`
		6938	`Added a '--' option to disable and enable parsing of options.`
		6939	`This allows a value with leading '--' to be set.`
		6940
		6941	`* makefile.pl directive: SetList`
		6942	`Added this directive to formalise the creation and processing of lists`
		6943	`within the makefiles.`
		6944	`Options:`
		6945	`--NoWarn Disable name clash warnings`
		6946	`--Project=xxxx[,xxxx]+ Add to list in selected projects`
		6947	`--Unique Add only if not already present`
		6948	`--Clear Clear list, before adding new items`
		6949	`--Append Append items to list (default)`
		6950	`-- Disable/Enable option parsing`
		6951	`Useage:`
		6952
		6953	`SetList ('*', 'LibList', 'lib1', 'lib2', '--Project=syd');`
		6954	`SharedLib ('*', 'MyDLL', @OBJS, @LibList );`
		6955
		6956	`* Makefile.pl directive: RunTest`
		6957	`Corrected the option of the --CopyIn=file option where the specified file`
		6958	`is not in the current directory.`
		6959
		6960	`* Jats Command: ant'`
		6961	`This command has been extended to make use of the -buildfile=xxxx option`
		6962	`to allow multiple buildfiles to be differentiated.`
		6963
		6964	`eg: jats -buildfile=MyPackage ant`
		6965
		6966	`* TOOLSET: DAFBR Compiler support`
		6967	`Modified the toolset to support an optimisation feature of the next`
		6968	`generation of the daf_br_compiler. These will be enabled if the major version`
		6969	`of the package containing the compiler is greater the "1". ie: 2.0.0.cr`
		6970
		6971	`* Interface helper files: set_XXXX.bat/.sh`
		6972	`Added provision to process user command arguments.`
		6973	`Thus`
		6974
		6975	`set_WIN32.bat prog`
		6976
		6977	`will set the WIN32 environment and run the command: prog`
		6978

		6980	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6981	`Version: JATS_2.52.2 Released: 30-Mar-06`
		6982	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6983	`Major changes:`
		6984
		6985	`Minor changes:`
		6986	`* Addressed issue with BUILDNAME, an internal variable.`
		6987	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user build.pl's they need to be`
		6988	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a project`
		6989	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		6990	`$(BUILDNAME) contains two or three space seperated fields - always`
		6991
		6992	`* m16c Toolset - MCRFirmware`
		6993	`Force the generation of .thx and payload files when the .bin files are`
		6994	`created. Previously this only occured in the packaging phase.`
		6995
		6996	`Internal changes:`
		6997	`* JATS toolsets`
		6998	`Added a feature to allow a toolset to flag additional files that get created`
		6999	`as a part of a "Prog". This allows a "Prog" definition to generate a`
		7000	`number of files, some which may be packaged.`
		7001
		7002	`Previously such files where only generated during the packaging phase. Now`
		7003	`they will be generated during the make_prog phase - with the other programs.`
		7004
		7005	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7006	`Version: JATS_2.52.1 Released: 29-Mar-06`
		7007	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7008	`Major changes:`
		7009	`* Jats command: etool`
		7010	`Extended to allow execution of deployment tools. This allows the deployment`
		7011	`tools to use the JATS core perl modules.`
		7012
		7013	`* Address issues with the use of BUILDVER and ScmBuildVer`
		7014	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user makefile.pl's they need to be`
		7015	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a projectt`
		7016	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		7017	`$(BUILDVERSION) contains the project extension - always`
		7018	`$ScmBuildVersion does not contain a project extension - always`
		7019
		7020	`Minor changes:`
		7021
		7022
		7023	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7024	`Version: JATS_2.52.0 Released: 27-Mar-06`
		7025	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7026	`Major changes:`
		7027	`* JATS environment variables`
		7028	`Added GBE_DPKG_STORE`
		7029	`Optionally addresses a dpkg_archive store. This is intended to allow`
		7030	`read only access to a remote repository. The GBE_DPKG_STORE will be`
		7031	`searched after GBE_DPKG. It will be searched last. JATS, be default,`
		7032	`will not publish packages in this repository.`
		7033
		7034	`Uses: Seed repository for a complete build`
		7035	`Remote repository`
		7036
		7037	`Added GBE_DPLY`
		7038	`Optionally addresses a Deployment Archive. This is only used in the`
		7039	`placement of deployment packages. This value may be project specific.`
		7040
		7041	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		7042	`Changes the mechanism used to link against the compiler RTL.`
		7043	`Previously the RTL was included multiple times in the link order. This`
		7044	`created problem with daf_dsi as the function 'time()' was being satisfied by`
		7045	`the RTL before being satisfied by the user libraries.`
		7046
		7047	`The compiler RTL is now treated as a library of last resort. It will be`
		7048	`processed once and it will be processed last.`
		7049
		7050
		7051	`Minor changes:`
		7052	`* JATS utility: build`
		7053	`* JATS utility: cache_dpkg`
		7054	`Extended the package search algorithm to locate a package within`
		7055	`GBE_DPKG_STORE. This archive will be searched last.`
		7056
		7057	`* JATS utility: gen_cots`
		7058	`Ensure label is not locked`
		7059	`Add option to allow user to specify source directory other than a package`
		7060	`that already exists in dpkg_archive.`
		7061
		7062	`* JATS directive: PackageFile`
		7063	`Now supports --Prod and --Debug options to limit the packaging process`
		7064	`to a specific type of build.`
		7065
		7066	`* JATS directive: GenerateFiles and RunTests`
		7067	`Added a --PackageInfo() replacement tag to allow package version information`
		7068	`to be extracted and passed to generator programs.`
		7069	`ie: --PackageInfo(sysbasetypes,syd,--fullversion)`
		7070
		7071	`Extended the --PackageBase() replacement tag to work with packages such as`
		7072	`sysbasetypes, where there is a .cr and a .syd type.`
		7073	`ie: --PackageBase(sysbasetypes,syd)`
		7074
		7075	`* JATS utility: release`
		7076	`Under windows, ensure that the directory C:\Clearcase exists. There have`
		7077	`been installations of Clearcase where this is directory does not exist.`
		7078
		7079	`* JATS utility: label`
		7080	`Added option: "-comment=Text" to allow a comment to be added to a label,`
		7081	`when it is being created.`
		7082
		7083	`Internal Changes`
		7084	`* JATS utility: create_dpkg`
		7085	`Refactored code to use JATS DescPkg class.`
		7086
		7087	`Added options to allow packaging to the various archives. This is of no use`
		7088	`to the normal developer, but will be used within the complete build system.`
		7089
		7090	`* Factored out the parsing of the BuildName directive`
		7091	`This process was being done in 3 locations - and there were getting`
		7092	`different results.`
		7093
		7094	`* ToolsetRequire directive`
		7095	`This has been extended to allow JATS to locate Toolset extensions within`
		7096	`packages. They should be placed within the tool/scripts directory`
		7097
		7098	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7099	`Version: JATS_2.51.0 Released: 15-Mar-06`

		7108	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7109	`Major changes:`
		7110	`* WIN32 utilities`
		7111	`Replaced a number of the Windows utilities ( cp, rm, mv ...)`
		7112	`with versions from the GNUWin32 project.`
		7113
		7114	`The 'cp' previously used could not recursively copy large directories`
		7115	`under Windows Server 2003, when both the source and destination are on the`
		7116	`same drive. ( dpkg_cache of ace ).`
		7117
		7118	`Minor changes:`
		7119	`* BuildVersion`
		7120	`The definition of VERSION_BUILD within the generated version-defs.h file`
		7121	`will have leading zeros removed, thus allowing it to be used within a 'C'`
		7122	`program without the number being interpreted as an octal constant.`
		7123
		7124	`The string form (VERSION_BUILD_STR) will retain the zeros.`
		7125
		7126	`* Unix Builds`
		7127	`Corrected several issues encountered when specifying the name of a static`
		7128	`library or a shared library.`
		7129
		7130	`JATS will prepend 'lib' to the user specified library name. Problems occurred`
		7131	`when the user specified a library name that started with 'lib'. Now, on Unix`
		7132	`systems, JATS will only prepend 'lib' if the library name does not already`
		7133	`start with 'lib'.`
		7134
		7135	`* BuildPkgArchive`
		7136	`Since 2.45.0 JATS will only transfer files for the BuildPkgArchive, if`
		7137	`they have not already been transferred. Added a test for the source`
		7138	`package being updated and then forceing the copy to be repeated.`
		7139
		7140	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7141	`Version: JATS_2.49.0 Released: 10-Feb-06`
		7142	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7143	`Major changes:`
		7144	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		7145	`Corrected a problem with the dependencies between a .REL file and the target`
		7146	`THX file. If the .REL files was modified the output THX file did not get`
		7147	`regenerated. This was only a problem in cases where the .REL file was`
		7148	`being manually maintained.`
		7149
		7150
		7151	`Minor changes:`
		7152	`* MakeAnt directive`
		7153	`Introduced a check to ensure that this directive is only used with a toolset`
		7154	`that can handle an 'ant' build file. Currently only the JAVA toolset`
		7155	`supports ANT builds.`
		7156
		7157	`* BuildPkgArchive directive`
		7158	`Correct problem in the caching of BuildPkgArchive packages in the case where`
		7159	`there is no GBE_DPKG_LOCAL on the machine.`
		7160
		7161	`* Label utility`
		7162	`Added a 'files=filename,filename' option to allow only specified`
		7163	`files to be labeled.`

		7166	`Corrected problem in which Java Manifest files were not parsed correctly`
		7167	`on Solaris.`
		7168
		7169	`* Generated makefiles`
		7170	`Fix a bug with the CompilerOptions that allowed a '0' definition to be set to`
		7171	`nothing.`
		7172
		7173	`* MOS Toolset`
		7174	`Added 'CompileOptions' of CcSupervisor.`
		7175	`This will set a MOS internal definition suitable for building specialised`
		7176	`modules.`
		7177
		7178	`* Utility: gen_cots`
		7179	`This utility will create a JATS buildable package froma dpkg_archive entry`
		7180	`and then check it in under clearcase.`
		7181
		7182	`JATS etool gen_cots -man will provide only help.`

		7193	`Minor changes:`
		7194	`* DEVI addressed`
		7195	`DEVI-022055 JATS builds DLLs with wrong copyright symbol in version resource`
5710	dpurdie	7196	`DEVI-022054 JATS puts "VIX Group test" in Product Name of Windows resource`
227	dpurdie	7197
		7198	`* Utility: release (cbuild)`
		7199	`Added an option to create a view configured to work with a branching`
		7200	`rule. A single branch can be named with the -branch option. eg:`
		7201
		7202	`jats release -extract 'label' -branch SITS_LEGACY_BRANCH`
		7203
		7204	`will create a view based on the named label, but suitable for creating`
		7205	`a patch for Sydney Legacy work.`
		7206
		7207	`* RunTest directive`
		7208	`The 'PATH' that the test uses is extended to allow access to programs that have`
		7209	`been installed with a InstallProg directive. This allows a test script to`
		7210	`test a program that is generated elsewhere within the package.`
		7211
		7212	`* PackageFile, Option --DirTree`
		7213	`Support for filenames that contain a "$" or a ' ' within the`
		7214	`--DirTree option. Implemented to allow entire JAVA class trees to be`
		7215	`packaged under JATS`
		7216
		7217	`Note: In general the use of a $ and space within a filename is not`
		7218	`supported within JATS.`
		7219
		7220	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7221	`Added an eprog option. The allows any program to be run within the`
		7222	`sanitized environment provided by JATS.`
		7223
		7224	`The specified program may be in the current directory or the user's`
		7225	`PATH. If the program is a perl script then it will be run with the`
		7226	`JATS perl interpreter, otherwise it will be processed by the system.`
		7227
		7228	`Eg: jats eprog myscript arg1 arg2`
		7229	`Eg: jats ant`
		7230
		7231	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7232	`Added an 'ant' command. ( "jats ant" )`
		7233
5710	dpurdie	7234	`This will run an VIX ANT build by scanning the current directory for a file`
227	dpurdie	7235	`called <ProjectName>depends.xml and then looking the a file called`
		7236	`<ProjectName>.xml. Jats will then create 'auto.xml' based on the`
		7237	`<ProjectName>depends.xml file and use ant to invoke the`
		7238	`<ProjectName>.xml file.`
		7239
5710	dpurdie	7240	`If the VIX build files cannot be found then ant is simply run and it will`
227	dpurdie	7241	`expect a build.pl file.`
		7242
		7243	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7244	`Force the environment variable PERL5INC to be unset.`
		7245
		7246	`* Jats utility: create_dpkg`
		7247	`Simplify handling of ANT based projects. Look for the package within`
		7248	`the build/pkg subdirectory, in the JANTS style.`
		7249
		7250	`* Utility: gen_winrc (DEVI-022054)`
		7251	`Added a "'-product=text'" option to allow the product name to be specified.`
		7252
		7253	`* Build files`
		7254	`Handle the java generated descpkg files. These are a Manifest format with`
5710	dpurdie	7255	`VIX extensions.`

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

		7497	`* BuildAlias directive`
		7498	`Added options.`
		7499	`--Define - Does not create implicit platforms`
		7500	`--Target - Redeclares the alais as the list of all`
		7501	`platforms that are based on a given target or`
		7502	`targets.`
		7503	`Eg:`
		7504	`BuildAlias ( 'LMOS,--Target', 'LMOS_WIN32', 'LMOS_linux_armv4' );`
		7505	`BuildProduct ( 'GAK', 'LMOS', 'MOS68K', 'MOSCF' );`
		7506	`BuildProduct ( 'PCP', 'LMOS', 'MOS68K' );`
		7507
		7508	`Will export an alias of LMOS that can be used within makefile.pl's`
		7509	`that will be the list of all platforms that have a target of`
		7510	`'LMOS_WIN32' or 'LMOS_linux_armv4'.`
		7511
		7512	`Note the dual use of LMOS within the example. This is intentional.`
		7513	`The LMOS alias is used within the BuildProduct to simplify the`
		7514	`specification of all the LMOS targets.`
		7515
		7516
		7517	`Minor changes:`
		7518	`* Label utility`
		7519	`Will generate a warning message if it labels more than one`
		7520	`build.pl file`
		7521
		7522	`* Package directives. PackageFile.`
		7523	`Corrected a problem with wildcard expansion in which a --FilterIn`

		7526	`--FilterIn option.`
		7527
		7528	`* jats release (cbuilder) utility`
		7529	`Correct use of the -prodOnly and -debugOnly flags.`
		7530	`The full name was not accepted; -debug and -prod was.`
		7531
		7532	`* Location of descpkg file`
		7533	`All makefile.pl's now know where the package descpkg file was`
		7534	`created. This simplifies the process og packaging this file as it`
		7535	`can be done within any makefile.pl.`

		7542	`Extended the options and operation of RunTest`
		7543	`Additional options`
		7544	`--CopyIn=file`
		7545	`This will copy the specified file into the BIN directory before`
		7546	`the test is run. The file will be marked as executable. This`
		7547	`allows scripts and configuration files to be transferred into`
		7548	`the test area.`
		7549
		7550	`Additional operations`
		7551	`The arguments passed to the script/program allow a number of`
		7552	`transformations, similar to GenerateFiles. Transforms`
		7553	`--File(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a known file`
		7554	`--Local(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a file that has been Installed`

		7582
		7583	`The default will use the default machine version of JAVA.`
		7584	`This may not be sutable for all packages.`
		7585
		7586	`Non-default versions of JAVA require that an environment variable be`
		7587	`set to the root of the JDK directory. These are:`

		7596
		7597	`* JATS environment`
		7598	`Ensure that all programs run under JATS in Windows have an uppercase`
		7599	`COMSPEC envvar. Windows appears to define a mixed case one. Fixed in`

		7681	`The use of @LIBS and @MLIBS in unix systems was causing a`
		7682	`problem as these variables already had a 'lib' prepended to the`
		7683	`list of libraries. These directives would add another 'lib' to the`
		7684	`list of libraries under unix causing a mismatch.`
		7685
		7686	`Corrected by stripping liblib from the names within these`
		7687	`directives.`
		7688
		7689	`* MakeProject directive`
		7690	`If the project build fails the log file was not being displayed`
		7691	`because 'make' stops when a command fails.`
		7692
		7693	`The MakeProject operations have been modified to ensure that the`
		7694	`log file is always displayed. The exit code of the build command`
		7695	`is preserved.`
		7696
		7697	`* Auto build utility jats-rewrite.pl`
		7698	`Modified to support the rewrite of Java 'using' and 'project'`
		7699	`statements.`
		7700
		7701	`* Mugfile generation`
		7702	`Added a --ThxDir=xxxx option to allow the THX and load files to`
		7703	`be placed in the target package.`

		7709	`Major changes:`
		7710	`* BuildVersion directive`
		7711	`The 'defs' mode has been extended to create a file with a build`
		7712	`number as well as a patch number.`
		7713
		7714	`The patch number is decoded into a patch number and a build`
		7715	`number.`
		7716
		7717	`Minor changes:`
		7718	`* AddFlags directives`
		7719	`Added a --NoWarn option that will suppress the warning of`
		7720	`duplicate flags being added.`
		7721
		7722	`* GBE_CORE environment variable (Windows)`
		7723	`Ensure that GBE_CORE has a driver letter. This allows use of JATS`
		7724	`loaded into the same dynamic view as the user code.`
		7725
		7726	`* Mug File Generation`
		7727	`Added support to allow load files to include other load files.`
		7728
		7729	`* 'cbuild' or 'release' command`
		7730	`Added a -latestroot=xxxx option. This is a work around for the`
		7731	`problem where the root level directory in the VOB has not been`
		7732	`labeled. After using this switch add the label to the root`
		7733	`directory.`
		7734
		7735	`The need to use this this switch indicates that the view is NOT`
		7736	`reproducible.`
		7737

		7765	`Enhanced (thanks Ross) to allow PATH information for various`
		7766	`target platforms to be extracted.`
		7767
		7768	`Better support for Product families. This is only an issue`
		7769	`for WIN32 derived families due to the generation of a list of`
		7770	`libraries. The list now observes Product hierarchy.`
		7771
		7772	`* Utility: release (cbuilder)`

5710	dpurdie	7799	`the VIX "Unit Test Automation" guidelines should be marked as`
227	dpurdie	7800	`-- Auto.`
		7801
		7802	`* Added a new make target: run_unit_tests`
		7803	`This will be used by the build tool to run non-interactive`
		7804	`unit tests within an automated framework.`
		7805
		7806	`* Make run_test and run_unit_test operation`
		7807	`The search path for DLL's or Shared Libraries is extended to`
		7808	`include all Shared Libraries in the build package list as well`
		7809	`as the local and interface directory. This allows tests to`
		7810	`locate required Shared Libraries at runtime.`
		7811
		7812	`* WIN32 targets built using Visual Studio 6`
		7813	`The path to the compiler is setup within JATS. It is no longer`
		7814	`imported from the users environment as the environment is`
		7815	`indeterminate when multiple versions of Visual Studio are`
		7816	`installed on the machine.`
		7817
		7818	`* WINCE Targets`
		7819	`The name of the SDK is case sensitive.`

		7832
		7833	`* Building DLL or EXE with the --NoPDB option will disable the`
		7834	`generation of debug information so that the linker does not`

		7836
		7837	`* UNIX Platforms (SOLARIS and LINUX)`
		7838	`Modification to allow BuildProduct and BuildPkgArchive to`
		7839	`interwork. Previously BuildPkgArchive packages were placed into`
		7840	`the 'interface/lib/SOLARIS' subdirectory and this was not being`
		7841	`searched when looking for libraries.`
		7842
		7843	`Minor changes:`
		7844	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		7845	`New sub-options to filename generation commands`
		7846	`--abspath - provide the named file with an absolute path`
		7847	`--absdrive - provide the named file with an absolute path`
		7848	`and drive letter`
		7849
		7850	`* Src directive`
		7851	`Modified the --FromPackage' option to allow searching of the root`
		7852	`directory of a package.`
		7853
		7854	`Src('*', 'etc/data.ini', '--FromPackage' );`
		7855
		7856	`Also prevent warnings on duplicate files if the package is`

		7883	`windows, which has a habit of capitalizing filenames.`
		7884	`This should not affect current users.`

		7899	`Minor changes:`
		7900	`* Jats wrapper script`
		7901	`Windows: Ensure that cmd.exe is in the users PATH. Without cmd.exe`

		7904
		7905	`* LinkPkgArchive and BuildPkgArchive`
		7906	`Processing soft links. Generate a warnings if a package soft`

		7934
		7935	`* MakeAnt directive`
		7936	`Now supports --Debug and --Prod options to limit the building of`
		7937	`ANT files. The MakeAnt directive is only going to work in`
		7938	`conjunction with the JAVA target`

		7975	`* Support for Windows DLLs`
		7976	`When building a WIN32 target the file interface/set_WIN32.bat is`

		8025	`force LinkPkgArchive directives to be interpreted as`

		8029
		8030	`* WINCE and WIN32 Toolset`

		8056	`Multiple platforms should be specified as:`
		8057	`Src( 'PLAT1,PLAT2,PLAT3', .... );`
		8058	`with only a comma between the platforms: No whitespace`
		8059	`If whitespace did exist then the makefile.pl would not do what`
		8060	`was expected - and it would not warn the user. The simplest`
		8061	`solution was to allow whitespace either side of the comma.`
		8062
		8063	`* GenerateFiles directive within makefile.pl`
		8064	`Allow 3 different bracket styles for the arguments to allow for`

		8115	`production.`
		8116

		8140	`The PDB files created when compiling objects for DLLs are now not`

		8616	`* Extended BuildName to accept the form`
		8617	`BuildName ('package_name', 'nn.nn.nn.xxx' );`
		8618
		8619	`* MOS68K and MOSCF toolset.`
		8620	`Extended the --board option to allow the user to define code and`
		8621	`data addresses for the board.`
		8622
		8623	`BuildProduct( 'TP5', 'MOSCF','--board=01234H,05678H' );`
		8624
		8625	`Will set the code,data address for the debugable image`
		8626
		8627	`* Extended the PackageXxxxx options`
		8628	`1) Allow --Platform=xxx,yyy`
		8629	`Where xxx is a directory prefix and yyy is suffix to the`
		8630	`"platform" name. Only useful within the context of the`
		8631	`PackageFile`
		8632
		8633	`2) The operation of --Platform=xxx when used by the PackageFile`
		8634	`directive now treats the xxx directory as a prefix to the`
		8635	`platform name. Other Package directives still treat it as a`
		8636	`suffix. In practice this is the logical use.`
		8637
		8638	`* Allow InstallLib and PackageLib to install a file that has been`
		8639	`discovered with a "Src" directive. This allows generated files`
		8640	`to be installed and packaged.`
		8641
		8642	`Minor changes:`
		8643
		8644	`* cache_dpkg utility`
		8645	`If a package is found in the local_dpkg_archive then the cache`
		8646	`entry will be deleted and the master archive will not be accessed.`
		8647
		8648	`* label utility`
		8649	`New option -auto to create and label`
		8650
		8651	`* Build WIN32 and WinCe Mutual DLLs with all the object files`
		8652	`This allows the generated import library to contain C++ names`
		8653
		8654	`* The BuildDirTree directive now supports an empty first argument`
		8655	`This allows a NULL tree.dir file, while still creating the root`
		8656	`directory. ie:`
		8657
		8658	`BuildDirTree ( '', 'pkg' );`
		8659
		8660	`* Fixed DEVIM 00019520`
		8661	`The problem was that /bin/pwd could return a different path to`
		8662	`the Cwd:getpwd() function. Solution: Use one mechanism throughout.`
		8663
		8664
		8665	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8666	`Version: JATS_2.9.0 Released: 28-Feb-05`
		8667	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8668	`Major changes:`
		8669	`* First release for Back Office and Front Office use.`
		8670
		8671	`* Added the jats tool jats_rewrite.pl to rewrite build.pl files.`
		8672	`To be used by the nightly build process.`
		8673
		8674	`* Work around a problem in the Microtec 68K compiler.`
		8675	`The compiler uses temp files. If the temp file name that the`
		8676	`compiler uses already exists, then the compiler will not delete`
		8677	`the file. Instead it appends information to the existing file.`
		8678
		8679	`The workaround is to create the temp files within the build's`
		8680	`interface directory and to remove all temp files before each`
		8681	`compilation.`
		8682
		8683	`This bug does not affect the Mictotec CF compiler.`
		8684
		8685	`Minor changes:`
		8686	`* The "jats clobber" command will remove version definition file, if`
		8687	`one is being produced.`
		8688
		8689	`* Using JATS within a Visual Studio project. The "rebuild all"`
		8690	`option now translates to the JATS unbuild command to do a better`
		8691	`job of cleaning the workspace.`
		8692
		8693	`* Added GetPackageRoot() directive to support the packaging of MOS`
		8694
		8695	`* Generate error message for misuse of the SubDir directive`
		8696
		8697	`* Modified BuildName to allow an '-' in the name.`
		8698	`This provides backward compatibility with existing packages.`
		8699
		8700	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8701	`Version: JATS_2.8.0 Released: 17-Feb-05`
		8702	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8703	`Major changes:`
		8704	`* Added some new WINCE based targets. These require WINCE SDKs to be`
		8705	`installed in order for the compilers to work.`
		8706
		8707	`* New PLATFORMS are WCEIT3000, WCEPA961 and WCEPCM7220`
		8708
		8709	`* All invocations of xmake specify the name of the makefile`
		8710	`This allow GNUMakefiles and the Jats makefiles to exist in the`
		8711	`same directory`
		8712
		8713	`* Overcome a limitation of the Microtec compiler in which the flag`
		8714	`_DEBUG is defined enev in production builds - contrary to the`
		8715	`documenattion.`
		8716
		8717	`Minor changes:`
		8718	`* Process of descpkg files allows for both Unix and DOS line endings`
		8719	`Under Unix JATS would report that the package names don't match`
		8720
		8721	`* Corrected a problem with BuildPkgArchive in which file names with`
		8722	`spaces could not be soft linked. Only affects Unix systems.`
		8723
		8724	`* Added a -rename to the "jats label" utility.`
		8725	`Ensure that the user specified label exists in the VOB`
		8726
		8727	`* Correct problem with "make clean" that resulted in a verbose display`
		8728	`when the verbose option had not been selected`
		8729
		8730	`* Correct a problem with "make unbuild". Changes in the build files`
		8731	`would prevent the execution of the command. This command should`
		8732	`be exempt from this test.`
		8733
		8734	`* Correct a problem with "make clean" in the WIN32 and WINCE`
		8735	`platforms where the .exp files were not deleted.`
		8736
		8737	`* The "JATS clobber" command now invokes "make clobber" and "build`
		8738	`clobber". The result is as clean a clean as it can be.`
		8739
		8740	`Note: Jats "clean" does not remove a lot of files. These can be`
		8741	`removed with "unbuild" and "unpackage". This is what "clobber"`
		8742	`does.`
		8743
		8744	`* The operation of "build clobber" has been cleaned up. It will`
		8745	`not try to invoke make if the makefiles have already been removed.`
		8746
		8747
		8748	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8749	`Version: JATS_2.7.0 Released: 09-Feb-05`
		8750	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8751	`Major changes:`
		8752	`* First release with support for the DAFBR compiler`
		8753
		8754	`* Extended MergeLibrary. Added per-file options of:`
		8755	`--Interface - Pull lib from Interface directory`
		8756	`--Local - Pull lib from Local directory (default)`
		8757	`--SubDir=pathname - Pull lib from a subdirectory`
		8758	`Note: xxxx,pathname still works`
		8759
		8760	`* Added "jats label" to provide a number of useful labeling`
		8761	`operations.`
		8762
		8763	`* Added extensive help to JATS. JATS -man.`
		8764
		8765	`* Added this manual ChangeLog file`
		8766
		8767	`Minor changes`
		8768	`* Added an 'ebin' command to jats to allow the JATS binary tools to`
		8769	`be run in a controlled environment from the command line.`
		8770
		8771	`* Prune the list of library paths passed through to the various`
		8772	`toolsets. If a directory does not have any files in it then the`
		8773	`directory is not added to the library path.`
		8774
		8775	`Thus if a library is located in xxxx/lib/WIN32 then JATS will`
		8776	`not add the xxxx/lib to the path.`
		8777
		8778	`* cbuilder will now look in all VOBs for the user specified label.`
		8779	`The program has a list of "known" labels which it will search`
		8780	`first in an attempt to speed up the process.`
		8781
		8782	`* The AddFlags directive will issue a warning if the flags does not`
		8783	`begin with a -D or a -U. The user should not be using compiler`
		8784	`specific flags.`
		8785
		8786	`* The use of linker flags will issue a warning.`
		8787
		8788	`* Process the common makefile.pl after the toolset has been`
		8789	`determined. This allows the toolset to extend the CompileOptions`
		8790	`such they are available to the common makefile.pl.`
		8791
		8792	`* Added the WIN32 CompileOptions "jats_v1" to force JATS to specify`
		8793	`a number of compile time definitions used by earlier versions of`
		8794	`JATS.`
		8795
		8796	`* Fixed bug in the --Debug option to the PackageProg directives that`
		8797	`caused both the production and debug versions to be packaged.`
		8798
		8799	`* The gen_msproject utility now creates simpler names for the MS`
		8800	`projects that it creates. The name no longer contains the full`
		8801	`pathname, thus making them shorter and readable.`
		8802
		8803	`* The ShowDlls utility now handles absolute and relative paths to`
		8804	`the initial DLL or EXE.`
		8805
		8806	`* Correct problem in which the use of Generate/Rule directives may`
		8807	`fail since prerequisite subdirectories were not being created`
		8808	`since the "generate" phase was not being run.`
		8809
		8810	`Added messages to prompt the user to remove Generate, Generated`
		8811	`and Rule directives. Use the GenerateFiles directive`
		8812
		8813	`* JATS.BAT file will exclude LINUX builds by default.`
		8814
		8815	`* The make NODEPEND=1 processing now does not recurse at all.`
		8816	`Previously each subdirectory was visited - only to do nothing.`
		8817
		8818	`* Correct a problem in creating stub libraries for MOS targets if`
		8819	`the stub library object was not listed with the SharedLib's`
		8820	`objects.`
		8821
		8822	`* Correct a problem with the MS Studio support. The invoked make`
		8823	`command is XXX_all_debug. There was a problem with this command in`
		8824	`that it did not do any dependancy checking and would not always`
		8825	`build defendants.`
