		2873	`Debug information is created for both production and debug builds`
		2874	`Debug information is placed in a .dbg file, which is linked to the`
		2875	`executable, or shared library. The .dbg file is packaged in the manner`
		2876	`as the main binary.`
		2877
		2878	`This methodology does not bloat the binary with debug information, while`
		2879	`retaining debug information. The binary transferred to an embedded`
		2880	`device does not contain debug information, yet the image used in the`

		3540	`* jats label command - Renaming a label`
		3541	`Address issue when renaming a label when the current ClearCase view is`

		3571	`* New Utility: upddep - Update Dependencies`
		3572	`This utility will update the dependencies in a build.pl file to be`

		3575
		3576	`It will create an 'auto.pl' file, which JATS uses in preference to a`
		3577	`build.pl file. DO NOT check this file in.`
		3578
		3579	`See: 'jats upddep -help' - For brief help`

		3588	`When creating a ShardLibrary (THX) report missing libraries before`
		3589	`compiling the objects that go into the THX.`
		3590
		3591	`This ensures that the error messages the describe the missing library`

		3604	`* Makefile directive helper function: If`

		3609	`stream.`
		3610
		3611	`Example:`
		3612

		3622
		3623	`* GCC Toolkit`
		3624	`Changes to the shared library dependency processing to bring it inline`
		3625	`with other toolers. Will terminate after determining that some`
		3626	`libraries cannot be found. This will ensure that the error message is at`
		3627	`the point of termination.`
		3628
		3629	`* Jats save_build utility`
		3630	`Corrected problem in unreserving a reserved checkout of a build.pl file`
		3631	`under windows.`
		3632
		3633	`* Jats sandbox`
		3634	`ClearCase views created with in the sandbox are created with a tag that`

		3707
		3708	`* Solaris builds`
		3709	`Program and Shared library dependency checking is now done before`
		3710	`the program/library objects are built. Thus errors associated with missing`
		3711	`dependencies occur before objects are built and the user can see the cause`
		3712	`of the build failure.`
		3713

289	dpurdie	4024	`Version: 2.79.0000.cr Released: 10-Jun-09`
		4025	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		4026	`Major changes:`
		4027	`* New Platform: DELPHI7`
		4028	`Support the creation of Units,Libraries, Packages and Programs using`
		4029	`Borlands Delphi Version 7.`
		4030
		4031	`See Jats Reference Manual for complete details and Delphi specific options`
		4032	`to the Prog and SharedLib directives.`
		4033
		4034	`This toolset has a number of limitations:`
		4035	`1) It can build either Debug or Production, but not both, in a single`
		4036	`makefile.pl. This is caused by the Delphi limitation that library`
		4037	`names cannot be changed.`
		4038
		4039	`2) The generation of dependencies between the source and the generated`
		4040	`artifacts is very simplistic.`
		4041
		4042	`Units are generated with the 'Lib' directive. The name of the Unit and the`
		4043	`name of the source are linked. The source should not be provided.`
		4044	`ie: Lib ('*', 'MyUnit' );`
		4045	`Will create a unit called MyUnit.dcu from the source file 'MyUnit.pas'`
		4046
		4047	`Packages are generated with the SharedLib directive starting with a .dpk`
		4048	`file.`
		4049	`ie: SharedLib ( '*', 'MyPackage' );`
		4050	`will create a package called MyPackage.bpl/dcp from the source file`
		4051	`MyPackage.dpk.`
		4052
		4053	`Libraries are generated with the SharedLib directive starting with a .dpr`
		4054	`file.`
		4055	`ie: SharedLib ( '*', 'MyDll' );`
		4056	`will create a package called MyDll.dll/lib from the source file`
		4057	`MyDll.dpr.`
		4058
		4059	`Programs are generated with the Prog directive starting with a .dpr`
		4060	`file.`
		4061	`ie: Prog ( '*', 'MyProg' );`
		4062	`will create a package called MyProg.exe from the source file`
		4063	`MyProg.dpr.`
		4064
		4065	`Minor changes:`
		4066	`* New EnvVar: DELPHI7`
		4067	`Required only if Borland Delphi 7 has not being installed in the`
		4068	`standard location or if the Windows Short Name is not`

		4070
		4071	`* BuildVersion directive`

		4073	`in a Delphi Unit.`
		4074
		4075	`Modified the operation of the "C" style generation.`
		4076	`If the name of the file is provided via '--File', then the generated files`
		4077	`will be 'known' to JATS and can be consumed from any makefile. JATS will`
		4078	`'know' the location of the files.`
		4079
		4080	`* Sanity test on the names of libraries and programs`
		4081	`Some characters are not allowed: ie: '/' as this is a mistake.`
		4082
		4083	`Internal Changes:`
		4084	`* ToolsetSHLD functions`
		4085	`Pass in the shared library version string as an argument`
		4086	`Means that the core of JATS can manage this information in a manner`
		4087	`that is decoupled from the toolsets.`
		4088
		4089	`* Reworked the mechanism used to hold data about libraries, shared libraries`
		4090	`merged libraries and programs. Created a class to manipulate build targets`
		4091	`and to maintain information about the contents of the targets.`

287	dpurdie	4107
		4108	`Minor changes:`

277	dpurdie	4170
279	dpurdie	4171	`JATS will automatically filter out target platforms that cannot be built`
		4172	`on the users machine. ie: It will not try to build Solaris targets on a`
		4173	`Windows machine. Thus, under the new scheme a Windows GBE_BUILDFILTER need`
281	dpurdie	4174	`not contain '!SOLARIS'`
279	dpurdie	4175
		4176	`This greatly simplifies the creation of GBE_BUILDFILTER as it does not`

		4194	`Added build, make, clean, clobber commands`

		4223
		4224	`Uses ANT 1.6 as the default version of ANT`
		4225
		4226	`Both changes will simplify the use of this command within the escrow`
		4227	`environment. ie: 'jats abt -buildfile=build1.xml'`
		4228

		5161	`* Jats Tool: CCbc2`
		5162	`Added utility to use BeyondCompare (BC2) to compare files in two`
		5163	`packages defined as ClearCase labels. The utility creates two dynamic views`
		5164	`and starts BeyondCompare. The views are destroyed at the end of the`
		5165	`process.`
		5166
		5167	`Requires BeyondCompare to be installed in its default location.`

		5175	`* Jats test runtime helper scripts set_PLATFORM.bat`

		5223	`Added a run-time test for the presence of the required toolset`
		5224	`This will report an error if the required WINCE toolset has not been`

		5228	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		5229	`If the generating tool can only be found in the users path, don't make`

		5398	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5399	`Version: 2.71.0.cr Released: 10-Oct-07`
		5400	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5401	`Major changes:`
		5402	`Makefile generation and make recursion`
		5403	`Extensive changes to the makefiles that are generated by JATS and method by`
		5404	`which JATS recuses through subdirectories during a build.`
		5405
		5406	`Summary of changes:`
		5407	`- Removed the use of 'make' to perform recursion over subdirectories`
		5408	`and platforms. This has been replaced by a JATS program that performs`
		5409	`the same task - only a great deal faster and with a greater scope for`
		5410	`flexibility.`
		5411
		5412	`The user interface remains identical: jats make ....`
		5413
		5414	`- Replaced the generated 'Makefile' with 'Makefile.gbe'. This is a text`
		5415	`file that provides sufficient information to allow JATS to locate the`
		5416	`interface directory and associated build information.`
		5417
		5418	`- Significant speed up in determining the need to rebuild a makefile.`
		5419	`On a large package this has been reduced from 30+ seconds to less`
		5420	`than one second.`
		5421
		5422	`- Significant speed up of large recursive builds through intelligent`
		5423	`building of the 'make_init' target. This is only processed once for`
		5424	`each platform type. Previously it was processed in each and every`
		5425	`makefile. This make target is used, internally, to perform sanity`
		5426	`testing of the compiler environment and to display the name of the`
		5427	`toolset. It is an expensive operation.`
		5428
		5429	`- Intelligent speed up of large recursive through better mechanism`
		5430	`for creating required directories. These are now created on the fly,`
		5431	`rather than via a slow recursive pass though all makefiles.`
		5432
		5433	`- Better makefile rebuilding`
		5434	`Makefiles can be rebuilt on the fly. The previous system was prone to`
		5435	`detecting that makefiles needs to be re-built, but then not re-`
		5436	`building them.`
		5437
		5438	`- Detection of build file changes`
		5439	`The make process will detect that the build file has been modified`
		5440	`and that the component has not been rebuilt. This is a warning. It`
		5441	`does not prevent the 'make' operation.`
		5442
		5443	`- Quieter make output`
		5444	`The 'Nothing to be done' message has been disabled.`
		5445
		5446
		5447	`Minor changes:`
		5448	`MakeAnt Directive`
		5449	`Allows ANT_HOME to be a path with spaces. ie: c:\Program Files\apache-ant-1.6.5`
		5450
		5451	`JATS command "debug" and "prod"`
		5452	`These now handle make arguments and options correctly. Thus the command:`
		5453	`jats prod WIN32 OPTIONS=args`
		5454	`Will correctly do a production build for WIN32 with command execution`
		5455	`display. Before, the system would attempt to process prod_OPTIONS=args.`
		5456
		5457	`CSHARP toolset`
		5458	`Correctly detect missing compiler directories`

		5550	`Major changes:`
		5551
		5552	`Minor changes:`
		5553	`* Reverted changes made in JATS_2.68.1 to the library search path`
		5554	`Although the search order is broken, we will need to live with it.`
		5555
		5556	`Addressed the search order of /usr/lib under Solaris by adding a new`
		5557	`AddLibDir option (--System) to add system paths. These will be searched`
		5558	`last.`
		5559
		5560	`For the record, the search order for header files and libraries is:`

		5585	`Major changes:`
		5586
		5587	`Minor changes:`
		5588	`* Solaris Toolset`
		5589	`Corrected library search order, such that /usr/lib is search after the`
		5590	`dependent packages.`
		5591
		5592	`* RunTest operation`

		5598	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5599	`Version: JATS_2.68.0 Released: 20-Aug-07`
		5600	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5601	`Major changes:`
		5602	`* Trap use of uncontrolled versions of 'ant' and the Java Compiler (javac)`
		5603
		5604	`It was discovered that a few old makefile.pl's where invoking ant and`
		5605	`javac directly in order to build small Java components. This was`
		5606	`normally being done in the guise of the WIN32 target. These packages`
		5607	`were making assumptions about the version of Java on the users search`
		5608	`path.`
		5609
		5610	`JATS can invoke ANT and build Java based components using the MakeAnt`
		5611	`directive and the JAVA platform. This method is controlled and`
		5612	`reproducible.`
		5613
		5614	`This release provides changes such that these packages will not build.`
		5615	`This is better than building incorrectly.`
		5616
		5617	`There are several aspects to the change`
		5618	`1) JATS provides binaries (ant and javac) with an error message. If`
		5619	`the user invoked ant/javac in a manner that involves searching the`
		5620	`PATH then these will be used and report an error.`
		5621
		5622	`2) A special command (jats abt) can be used to start up the Auto Build`
		5623	`Tool in a manner that does not alter the PATH seen by the utilities.`
		5624	`Moreover it does not alter the JAVA_HOME seen by the build. This is`
		5625	`controlled separately.`
		5626
		5627	`Minor changes:`
		5628	`* Sanitize the PATH environment variable`
		5629	`Ensure the JATS bin directory is the first directory searched`
		5630	`Remove duplicates`
		5631	`Place non-existent components at the end of the PATH`
		5632
		5633	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5634	`Version: JATS_2.67.1 Released: 17-Aug-07`
		5635	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5636	`Major changes:`
		5637
		5638	`Minor changes:`
		5639	`* Makefile sanity test`
		5640	`Added a test to ensure that makefiles created on a machine of one type are`
		5641	`not then run on a machine of a different type.`
		5642
		5643	`This will prevent files created on solaris-sparc being used on a solaris-`
		5644	`x86 machine.`
		5645
		5646	`* Correct bug in RunTest`
		5647	`RunTest now extends the PATH to include the local bin directory`
		5648
		5649	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5650	`Version: JATS_2.67.0 Released: 13-Aug-07`
		5651	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5652	`Major changes:`
		5653	`* RunTest directive`
		5654	`Added support for running tests within the NUNIT test framework for the`
		5655	`CSHARP target. In the process a generalized mechanism for accessing`
		5656	`toolset specific test frameworks has been added.`
		5657
		5658	`Changes to the directive to support a FrameWork.`
		5659	`The use of a test FrameWork is signaled with the option`
		5660	`--FrameWork=<name> If this is present then the raw name of the program`
		5661	`under test will be passed to the framework. program.`
		5662
		5663	`If a FrameWork is in use, then JATS will invoke the specified framework`
		5664	`builder within the current toolset.`
		5665
		5666	`When a framework is in place JATS will pass arguments of the form:`
		5667	`'--Tag=Text' to the FrameWork. Other options are processed as normal.`
		5668
		5669	`With in the Nunit FrameWork the program under test will be a DLL Nunit`
		5670	`will only operate on a DLL. The DLL must have been created by the makefile`
		5671	`containing the RunTest directive.`
		5672
		5673	`The Nunit Framework supports the following options:`
		5674	`--Uses=<Name>[,SubOption]+`
		5675
		5676	`This option specifies other DLLs that are used by the TestDLL. They will`
		5677	`be copied in to the test directory, and may be sourced from an external`
		5678	`package or the components 'local' lib directory.`
		5679
		5680	`SubOptions available to The --Uses directive are:`
		5681	`--NonJats This is not a JATS built library. It will not have a`
		5682	`P or D suffix.`
		5683	`--Jats (Default) This is a JATS built library. JATS will`
		5684	`select the correct library type for this build.`
		5685
		5686	`Minor changes:`
		5687	`* New Cache cleanup mechanism`
		5688	`When a package is consumed from the 'cache' a flag is updated within`
		5689	`the cache. The cache aging routines use this file in preference to`
		5690	`the descpkg file, thus it will prevent the aging of packages that are`
		5691	`frequently used. The aging policy can be made more aggressive.`
		5692
		5693	`* Save Build Utility`
		5694	`This utility is used by the Auto Build System to save the 'build.pl' file`
		5695	`used in a ripple build.`
		5696
		5697	`The utility has been enhanced to detect a reserved checkout of the`
		5698	`build.pl. The checkout will be changed to unreserved - if possible.`
		5699
		5700	`* Release Utility`
		5701	`The 'jats release' command will now unlock any labels that it locked`
		5702	`when an error is encountered.`
		5703
		5704	`This simplifies the 'release' process as the developers label will be`
		5705	`unlocked if a build error occurs.`
		5706
		5707	`* Jats caching local copy of itself`
		5708	`Fixed a bug which resulted in an "Use of individualized value" message`
		5709	`being displayed a large number of times during the file transfer process.`
		5710
		5711	`* Minor extension to allow plug-in directives to perform a processing step`
		5712	`before the makefiles are created.`
		5713
		5714	`* TestProg directive`
		5715	`TestProg's are now built in exactly the same manner as Progs`
		5716
		5717	`* Correct problem introduced in 2.66.1 with packaging of files with`
		5718	`a 'space' or '$' in the file name.`
		5719

		5722	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5723	`Major changes:`
		5724	`* New build target`

		5728	`These targets have also been added to the following pseudo targets.`
		5729	`DEVLINUX`
		5730	`LMOS_DEVLINUX`
		5731
		5732	`* Internal utility dpkg_cache [Windows]`

		5734	`transfer, after having problems the 'cp.exe' provided by JATS.`
		5735
		5736	`Minor changes:`
		5737	`* Added utility class to provide directory searching`
		5738	`To be used in JATS and JATS support tools`

		5741	`Correct problem with filename that start with "n" as in .\not_nice.cs`
		5742
		5743	`Create resource files with Fully Qualified Names derived from the .resx`
		5744	`and .cs files.`
		5745
		5746	`Handle Strong Key Names and creates wrappers to provide do the right`
		5747	`thing.`
		5748
		5749	`* Microtec ColdFire compiler`
		5750	`Further attempts to get the compiler to place all of its temp files in a`
		5751	`local directory. The compiler uses a large number of EnVars to control`
		5752	`were it places temp files.`
		5753
		5754	`Underlying problem is random compiler failures on big builds. Suspected`
		5755	`interaction with other builds.`
		5756
		5757	`* Release utility command`
		5758	`Added a -tag=name option to allow the Auto Build Tools to create`
		5759	`multiple instances of a static view. The tag is used to provide a unique`
		5760	`component in the clearcase tag name.`

		5846	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5847	`Version: JATS_2.65.1 Released: 30-May-07`
		5848	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5849	`Major changes:`
		5850	`* Provided a mechanism by which JATS makefile.pl directives can be extended`
		5851	`through modules provided by external packages. This will be used to reduce`
		5852	`the dependancy on JATS of various packaging processes.`
		5853
		5854	`* GenerateFiles`
		5855	`Added the options:`
		5856	`--UnknownPreq - Will force the recipe to be run every time`
		5857	`the generated files are required. May be used`
		5858	`when the dependancies are too complex to`
		5859	`describe. ie: Entire directory tree.`
		5860
		5861	`--AutoGenerate - Will not force the recipe to be run during the`
		5862	`'generate' phase, unless the recipe generates`
		5863	`source files. Allows recipes to be run very`
		5864	`late. ie: when the dependent files are actually`
		5865	`required.`
		5866
		5867
		5868	`Minor changes:`
		5869	`* GenerateFile directive`
		5870	`Added --Var(BuildRoot)`
		5871
		5872	`* GCC Toolset`
		5873	`Creating Shared Libaries with a 'Def' file. The library is now dependent`
		5874	`on the Def file, such that changes to the Def file will cause the library to`
		5875	`be rebuilt.`
		5876
		5877	`* MakeAnt and MakeProject directives`
		5878	`Preserve the order in which projects are built.`
		5879

		5883	`Major changes:`
		5884	`* Access to Release Manager and Deployment Manager databases`
		5885	`The database location, user and password have been made configurable via`
		5886	`environment variables.`
		5887
		5888	`Reason: The Release Manager and Deployment Manager databases are being`
		5889	`moved.`
		5890
		5891	`This will affect users that:`
		5892	`1) Use tools that access RM or DM`
		5893	`Some tools that build deployable packages`
		5894
		5895	`2) Use the ABT system`
		5896	`The buildadm user, and the ABT scripts will be modified to provide`
		5897	`the required configuration`
		5898
		5899	`If you need to use tools that access RM or DM, outside of the ABT scripts on`
		5900	`the build machine then you will need to add the following environment`
		5901	`definitions to your .profile_bash, or jats.bat.`

		5933	`The TP5600* targets should be removed to make it obvious that these packages`
		5934	`need to be converted.`
		5935
		5936	`* Building Linux Device Drivers`
		5937	`The hard-coded path to the Kernel Headers has been removed.`
		5938	`Linux Drivers must be built with a suitable package to provide`

		5999
		6000	`LMOS_TP5600 is a tag that will be expanded to the entire family of LMOS_TP5600`

		6003
		6004	`LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI and LMOS_TP5600_EMU`
		6005	`These are LMOS based targets. The 'lmos' package must be used in order to`

		6007
		6008	`The LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI can use components from the TP5600_ARM9TDMI,`

		6015	`This is a tag that will be expanded to all the known WINCE targets.`
		6016	`Use of this platform will simplify the creation of components for`
		6017	`consumption on all WINCE machines.`
		6018
		6019	`The current list of WINCE targets is:`

		6031	`The WINCE targets actually built will be affected by GBE_BUILDFILTER.`
		6032
		6033	`* JATS makefile.pl`
		6034	`The package descriptor file, 'descpkg', will be packaged in all makefiles`

		6036
		6037	`There is now no need to explicitly package the 'descpkg' file, except in`

		6039
		6040	`Minor changes:`
		6041	`* Directive: PackageFile`
		6042	`Generate a warning if the source file name does not confirm to good naming`

		6044	`an '='.`
		6045
		6046	`Normally the result of an error in the directive. ie: "-Subdir=etc", instead`

		6048
		6049	`* JATS Internal utility: cmdfile`
		6050	`Updated Linux and Solaris targets with a version of the cmdfile that`
		6051	`provides a better error message for libraries that cannot be found.`
		6052
		6053	`This version will display the library search path with one item per line,`

		6057	`Version: JATS_2.63.0 Released: 5-Apr-07`
		6058	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6059	`Major changes:`
		6060
		6061	`* JATS release command`
		6062	`Modified the configuration spec generated when a branching rule is`
		6063	`specified. The change will ensure that directories are not branched.`
		6064
		6065	`Rules are:`
		6066	`Modify a file: File will branch`
		6067	`Adding a file: Containing directory will not branch`
		6068	`File will be placed on a branch`
		6069	`Add a directory: Containing directory will not branch`
		6070	`New directory will branch`
		6071
		6072	`Minor changes:`
		6073	`* JATS release command`
		6074	`Added -noprefex option to allow the creation of a view directory without the`
		6075	`user name being prefixed to it. This is useful in creating an escrow view.`
		6076
		6077	`* JATS label command`
		6078	`Detect and report parent directories that are checkedout when a label`
		6079	`is applied. Previously these had gone unreported.`
		6080
		6081	`* JATS make`
		6082	`Undo previous change to preserve symbolic links while Packaging and`
		6083	`Installing files. A problem was encountered when a file from a package`
		6084	`was re-packaged.`
		6085
		6086	`* JATS escrow`
		6087	`Added a tool to generate information for creating an escrow drop.`
		6088	`Use jats escrow -help for details`
		6089
		6090	`* makefile.pl directive: MakeAnt`
		6091	`This directive will create parameters to specify the location of external java`
		6092	`packages that have been referenced via a LinkPkgArchive directive.`
		6093
		6094	`This allows the build.xml to contruct a CLASSPATH to access JAR files in`
		6095	`packages, without the overhead of copying the entire package into the`
		6096	`interface directory.`
		6097
		6098	`* build.pl directive: BuildPkgArchive`
		6099	`Modified the processing of 'jar' directories.`
		6100	`Directories of the form 'jar.<target>' will be transferred into the 'jar'`
		6101	`directory as seen by the package.`
		6102
		6103	`Intended use: Deployment of oraclient for Solaris 10`
		6104
		6105	`* JAVA 6`
		6106	`JATS now supports all versions of Java through the use of JAVA_HOME_X_Y`
		6107	`environment variables. Where X andY specify the version of JAVA.`
		6108
		6109	`The jats.bat and jats.sh example files only provide indication of 1.4, 1.5`
		6110	`and 1.6 support, but all versions are now supported.`
		6111
		6112	`The "jats vars -v" command will display all JAVA_HOME environment variables`
		6113
		6114	`* Jats command: vars`
		6115	`Extended to show a "*" for EnvVars that do not address a valid directory`
		6116	`These indicate potential problems.`

		6118	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6119	`Version: JATS_2.62.4 Released: 20-Mar-07`
		6120	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6121	`Major changes:`
		6122	`* JATS create_dpkg + packageing shared libraries (Unix)`
		6123	`When a shared library is created a simple symbolic link to the versioned`
		6124	`libarry is also created.`
		6125
		6126	`Previous versions of JATS would replace the symbolic link with a physical`
		6127	`copy of the file. The effect of this is that when the shared libaries is`
		6128	`'Installed', 'Packaged' and transferred into dpkg_archive there are two`
		6129	`files, instead of one file and one link to the file (in the same directory)`
		6130	`The Solaris shared libraries can be quite large, due to the debug`
		6131	`information contained within the file.`
		6132
		6133	`This version of JATS will preserve symbolic links when 'Installing',`
		6134	`'Packaging' and transferring to dpkg_archive.`
		6135
		6136	`The advantage of this will be significant reduction in disk space used`
		6137	`within the build environment and dpkg_archive.`
		6138
		6139	`* Building Perl Modules`
		6140	`Modified the process to prevent the module builder attempting to modify the`
		6141	`documentation on the build machine.`
		6142
		6143	`Integrated the 'jats clean' operation.`
		6144
		6145	`Minor changes:`
		6146	`* jats create_dpkg`
		6147	`Added an option to create a built.generic file`
		6148	`This is only used by the Automated Built Tools.`
		6149
		6150	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6151	`Version: JATS_2.62.3 Released: 28-Feb-07`
		6152	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6153	`Major changes:`
		6154	`* JATS JAVA build target`
		6155	`The default behaviour of the JAVA build target has changed such that the`
		6156	`default version of JAVA used will be 1.4.`
		6157
		6158	`Previous behaviour was to use whichever version was specified by the EnvVar`
		6159	`JAVA_HOME. This was not controlled, thus the build was not controlled.`
		6160	`Problems occur when using the new AutoBuildTool as it uses Java 1.5 and this`
		6161	`is then picked up as the default version.`
		6162
		6163	`If a version, other than 1.4, is required then specify it within the`
		6164	`build.pl file.`
		6165
		6166	`Minor changes:`
		6167	`* jats release`
		6168	`Ensure that the 'cleartool' command can be found in the users PATH`
		6169	`Issue an error if it cannot be found.`
		6170	`This error indicates bad DevEnv setup`
		6171
		6172	`Added facility to create a view based on a config_spec, instead of a label.`
		6173	`Such a view cannot be used to create a release. It is intended to simplify`
		6174	`the creation of simple static views. The name of view is, by default,`
		6175	`based on the name of the config spec. Use the -view=name option to change`
		6176	`the name of the view.`
		6177
		6178	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		6179	`Added new --Vars() to allow packaging of JATS plugin tools.`
		6180
		6181	`* MOS Toolset`
		6182	`When using MOS fast intermodule calls the optimizer will preload commonly`
		6183	`used memory addresses into a register BEFORE the GDP has been correctly set`
		6184	`up. Use the following option to suppress this optimization`
		6185
		6186	`Added: CompileOptions ('*', 'NoGlobalOptimization' );`

		6192	`Major changes:`
		6193
		6194	`Minor changes:`
		6195	`* JATS environment`
		6196	`Ensure that the true path of the Perl executable is present in the PATH`
		6197	`environment variable. This allows build tool access to various perl utilities`
		6198	`that are located in the Perl bin directory.`
		6199
		6200	`Resolves issues in locating utilities such as pod2html`
		6201
		6202	`* Use of GENERIC platforms`
		6203	`Report an error if a GENERIC platform is mixed with any other platform`
		6204	`specifier. GENERIC is used for packages that build on all machines because`
		6205	`they do not use a compiler or linker. They simply contains files that need`
		6206	`to be packaged.`
		6207
		6208	`* Generated makefiles`
		6209	`Solaris and Linux: Ensure that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is exported if it is used.`
		6210
		6211	`* Generating MOS THX files`
		6212	`Added option --BinaryImage to the SharedLib directive used to create MOS THX`
		6213	`files. This option will create a binary image (.bin) instead of a .thx file.`
		6214	`This is being used in the creation of BR Applets.`
		6215
		6216	`SharedLib ( 'MOS', "xxx", @OBJS, "--Rel=xxx.rel", "--BinaryImage" );`
		6217
		6218	`* JATS release`
		6219	`Correct the operation of the -path option under Unix`

		6223
		6224	`* JATS Toolset`
		6225	`Added support for the WinCe PSION (WCEPSION_420)`
		6226	`This is a armv4i device using 4.20 of the WCE SDK`

		6232	`Major changes:`
		6233
		6234	`Minor changes:`
		6235	`* jats label`
		6236	`Added a -vob=name option`
		6237	`This allwos the label utility to create, lock, unlock, rename and delete`
		6238	`labels without the user actually being located within the VOB. This option`
		6239	`cannot be used in conjunction with operations that place labels on files.`
		6240	`It can only be used for operations that manipulate the label.`
		6241
		6242	`Added a -user=name option`
		6243	`This extends the operation of the -mine operation to change ownership of the`
		6244	`label to the named user.`
		6245
		6246	`* jats release`
		6247	`Displays the path to the view and the build file in a user friendly manner`
		6248	`Under Windows it uses \, unless running under cygwin.`
		6249
		6250	`* JATS build.pl`
		6251	`BuildProduct supports the --Uses=xxxx construct on a per-target basis.`
		6252	`ie:`

		6261	`These directives have been extended to allow a large number of makefile`
		6262	`values to be added to the command lines,without resorting to knowledge of`
		6263	`the makefile internals. ie:`
		6264	`--Var(BuildName)`
		6265	`will be expanded to (hen building MyPackage)`
		6266	`-BuildName=MyPackage`
		6267
		6268	`The complete list of Variables is provided in the JATS manual.`
		6269
		6270	`* GenerateFiles`

		6281	`Internal changes:`
		6282	`* GenerateFiles`
		6283	`Maintains the arguments in an array for simpler processing.`
		6284
		6285	`--Shell is now processed by the 'make' shell rather then invoking an`
		6286	`external shell. It will be the same shell, just easier to setup.`
		6287
		6288
		6289	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6290	`Version: JATS_2.61.3 Released: 14-Dec-06`
		6291	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6292	`Major changes:`
		6293	`* Caching JATS`
		6294	`Added a mechanism whereby JATS can cache a copy of itself on the users local`
		6295	`drive. This is applicable to windows.`
		6296
		6297	`This mechanism will allow a user to address JATS via the soft-links in`
		6298	`dpkg_archive and pick up the current version of JATS without the penalty of`
		6299	`then using JATS across a slow(network) link.`
		6300
		6301	`The EnvVar GBE_CACHE_JATS controls the operation of this feature.`
		6302	`Set GBE_CACHE_JATS to one to enable the operation, but it will only be`
		6303	`effective if JATS is being run from GBE_DPKG in the first place.`
		6304
		6305	`Use: Build Machines and Windows Users`
		6306
		6307	`Minor changes:`
		6308	`* Build directive: BuildAlias with --Target option`
		6309	`Corrected a problem when the target name is a expanded platform name (ie:`
		6310	`TP5600) that prevent correct expansion.`
		6311
		6312	`* jats build`
		6313	`If the user has not configured a cache, then do not attempt to cache`
		6314	`packages. This will remove an annoying warning message for each package`
		6315	`processed by the build.`
		6316
		6317	`* jats build`
		6318	`Modified the error messages generated when JATS fails to create the`
		6319	`makefiles. The previous system would report failures while creating`
		6320	`makefiles and, at the end of the process, it would generate a large error`
		6321	`message to indicate the failure. This large message diverted the users`
		6322	`from reading the other error messages resulting in confusion.`
		6323
		6324	`* PackageFile, PackageLib, PackageProg and PackageHdr`
		6325	`Detect and report as an error use of the --Dir=<Path> option where the`
		6326	`Path is not specified.`
		6327
		6328	`Most instances of this error will be where the option has been mis-used in`
		6329	`conjunction with a package.pl file, or during transition from using a`
		6330	`package.pl file. That change is detects errors where the user has specified`
		6331	`--Dir=$Pinc`
		6332	`but $Pinc is not defined.`
		6333
		6334	`* Purify and Purecov under Windows`
		6335	`Changes to correct the operation of Rational's tools when used on the`
		6336	`Windows platform.`
		6337
		6338	`- OPTIONS=purecov`
		6339	`Forces the link operations to generate the relocation table required`
		6340	`by 'purecov.`
		6341
		6342	`Does not attempt to use purecov in the compiler tool chain`
		6343	`This is required under Solaris, but not Windows`
		6344
		6345	`- OPTIONS=purify`
		6346	`Does not attempt to use purecov in the compiler tool chain`
		6347	`This is required under Solaris, but not Windows.`
		6348	`Under WIndows this option does nothing.`

		6352	`Version: JATS_2.61.2 Released: 27-Nov-06`
		6353	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6354	`Major changes:`
		6355	`* makefile.pl directive Platform`
		6356	`This directive has been expanded to allow for the negation operation`
		6357	`Example:`
		6358	`Platform ('!MOSCF');`
		6359	`Process makefile for all targets other than MOSCF`
		6360	`This is the same as Platform ('*', '!MOSCF');`
		6361
		6362	`Excluded platform will be processed after included platforms have`
		6363	`been determined.`
		6364
		6365	`Minor changes:`
		6366	`* Added the ScanList directive.`
		6367	`This directive allows a list of files within an external package to be`
		6368	`located at build-time.`
		6369
		6370	`* Unix based systems`
		6371	`If the EnvVar LD_LIBRARY_PATH was undefined, then a warning would be`
		6372	`generated by make under some conditions. The warning has been removed.`
		6373
		6374	`* MakeLinuxDriver`
		6375	`Added a --Define=text option to allow "defines" to be passed to the`
		6376	`driver being built.`

		6406	`Added directive: MakeLinuxDriver to build and Linux Device Driver.`
		6407
		6408	`GenerateFiles.`
		6409	`Added option: --NoGenerate to indicate that the directive does`

		6417
		6418	`* GCC Toolset (Used to build Linux)`
		6419	`Added options to allow the generation of statically linked programs.`
		6420	`There are two mechanism:`
		6421
		6422	`Globally within the makefile.pl, or if applied in the common makefile.pl`
		6423	`the option can apply to all programs being built.`
		6424
		6425	`CompileOptions ( 'platform', 'StaticProgs' ); - Generate static programs`
		6426	`CompileOptions ( 'platform', 'No_StaticProgs' ); - Default`

		6436	`Major changes:`
		6437	`* SunWorks Toolset`
		6438	`Better determination of the location of the SunWorks compiler and library`
		6439	`Does not use an environment variable to locate compiler libraries`
		6440	`It is based on machine type.`

		6458	`Extended the cross compilers that can be handled by the toolset`
		6459	Removed the use of `uname`.
		6460
		6461	`* Added platforms`
		6462	`TP5600 ( Expands to TP5600_ARM9TDMI and TP5600_EMU )`
		6463	`TP5600_ARM9TDMI`
		6464	`TP5600_EMU`

		6478	`similar, but more pronounced, issue.`
		6479
		6480	`* Atmel toolset (DEVI-031788)`
		6481	`New Products: AT90SC7272C and AT90SC3232CS`

		6548	`Theses are:`
		6549	`SOLARIS_SPARC`
		6550	`SOLARIS_AMD`

		6581
		6582	`Minor changes:`
		6583	`* WIN32 and WINCE toolsets`
		6584	`SharedLib operation. Added an option to allow the creation of a 'stub'`

		6622
		6623	`* Packaging directives`
		6624	`Added option --OsCommon to allow files and header files to be packed into`
		6625	`a directory known to all platforms being built for a common OS.`
		6626
		6627	`Currently this is only supported to target platforms based on`
		6628	`SOLARIS`
		6629	`WIN32`
		6630
		6631	`* Removal of support for badly formed packages`
		6632	`As of this release libraries that exist in the <packagename>/lib directory`
		6633	`will not be available to JATS. These libraries are in the incorrect`
		6634	`directory. They MUST be in a directory that indicates the intended purpose`
		6635	`of the library. A .so library cannot be used on all machines ( linux,`
		6636	`solaris-sparc, solaris-amd ... ).`
		6637
		6638	`* Build Platform target name expansion facility`
		6639	`The build targets of SOLARIS and LINUX are seen as expandable names. They`
		6640	`will be expanded to suitable targets - depending on the host machine .`
		6641
		6642

		6647
		6648	`* Utility: JATS RELEASE`
		6649	`Added a -root=dirname to allow the user to place the created view at a given`
		6650	`location`
		6651
		6652	`Added GBE_VIEWBASE to provide a globally configured mechanism for`
		6653	`controlling the view location. Performs the same job as -root=xxxx`
		6654
		6655	`* Utility genrc`
		6656	`Added the company name to the copyright string`
		6657
		6658	`* Utility: jats_save_build`
		6659	`Added option: -new`
		6660	`This option forces the saved file only a new branch.`
		6661	`The option can be used to save a build.pl file onto a new project-specific`
		6662	`branch. Useful when branching an entire release.`
		6663
		6664	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6665	`Added options to allow project suffixes to be replaced.`
		6666	`Use: Convert a .syd project to a .bej project.`
		6667
		6668	`* Deprecated features: package.pl and tree.dir`
		6669	`These two build features are being deprecated. They are not suitable for`
		6670	`migration to other SOLARIS based platforms.`
		6671
		6672	`The Package directives provide sufficient power to replace the package.pl`
		6673	`features - in a uniform manner.`
		6674
		6675
		6676	`Internal Changes:`
		6677	`* Major rework of the JATS BuildPlatform, BuildAlias an BuildProducts`
		6678	`directives, together with the mechanism used to describe the platform builds.`
		6679
		6680	`Introduced a CFG/<PLATFORM>.CFG file to provide:`
		6681	`1) Platform information available at build time`
		6682	`2) Dynamic platform names`
		6683
		6684	`* Major rework of the 'SOLARIS' platform`
		6685	`The SOLARIS platform will generate one or more targets, depending on the`
		6686	`machine on which the platform is invoked.`
		6687
		6688	`Consolidated a number of SOLARIS specific kludges and converted them into`
		6689	`configurable items. These kludges are really on applicable to the`
		6690	`SOLARIS8_SPARC32 platform. New SOLARIS builds will be well formed.`
		6691
		6692	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6693	`Formalized a number of kludges in operation of the SOLARIS8 under sparc32`
		6694	`platform. These are configured early in the build process and are no longer`
		6695	`needed.`
		6696
		6697	`A side effect of this work is that files from external packages may be`
		6698	`located in 'SOLARIS', 'SOLARIS_sparc' or 'sparc' directories. The change`
		6699	`should be transparent as the consumer tools should be able to handle`
		6700	`files from all of these.`

		6712	`Version: JATS_2.55.0 Released: 3-Aug-06`
		6713	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6714	`Major changes:`
		6715	`* Jats wrapper: Specify version of JATS to be used`
		6716	`Added a -version=xxxx option to force JATS to use a specific version of`
		6717	`JATS. The same operation can be achieved by setting GBE_JATS_VERSION.`
		6718
		6719	`The required version MUST be found in one of the known archives.`
		6720
		6721	`JATS will attempt to cache the version of JATS to assist in speeding up`
		6722	`the operations.`
		6723
		6724	`The version option MUST be the first option.`
		6725
		6726	`The version option MUST be followed by a '--' option.`
		6727	`This prevents JATS parsing other options and recursion issues.`
		6728
		6729	`Example: jats -version=2.54.3.cr -- build`
		6730
		6731	`* Migrated the "jats install" functionality out of the jats wrapper script`
		6732	`and into the create_dpkg utility. This is transparent to the user.`
		6733
		6734	`* Utility: create_dpkg`
		6735	`Added a '-quiet' option to allow use within scripts`
		6736	`Extended the built-in help`

		6742
		6743	`* M16 toolset as used in building MCRFirmware`

		6746
		6747	`Minor changes:`
		6748	`* JATS wrapper script`
		6749	`Added a -ABT=xxx option to allow the Auto Build Tool to be invoked from`
		6750	`the command line.`
		6751
		6752	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6753	`Modified so that it will display changes. These will then be present in the`
		6754	`ABT log so that a developer can see which packages have been rippled.`
		6755
		6756	`Internal Changes:`
		6757	`* Common Error Reporting`
		6758	`Will use environment variables to control DEBUG and VERBOSE levels`
		6759	`for individual users. A module reporting with a name of XXXX will use EnvVars`
		6760	`of GBE_XXXX_VERBOSE and GBE_XXXX_DEBUG to control the debug and VERBOSE`
		6761	`level.`
		6762
		6763	`Force flushing after a "Question" is asked to ensure that the prompt is`
		6764	`displayed.`
		6765
		6766	`Enable autoflush for both STDOUT and STDERR.`

		6778	`.def files to include other files.`
		6779
		6780	`* IAR toolset`
		6781	`Added AT7272 support`
		6782
		6783	`* Tool: jats_manifest`
		6784	`Added links to a suitable md5sum program on target platforms`

		6800	`Major changes:`
		6801
		6802	`Minor changes:`
		6803	`* Mictotec toolset`
		6804	`Assembler files. Define DEBUG in debug builds and NDEBUG in production`
		6805	`builds.`
		6806
		6807	`* JATS Core`
		6808	`Added GBE_ABT. This is used by the Auto Build Tool to indicate that an`
		6809	`auto build is in progress. It may be used by various tools to modify their`
		6810	`behaviour.`
		6811
		6812	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6813	`Version: JATS_2.54.0 Released: 22-Jun-06`
		6814	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6815	`Major changes:`
		6816	`* Removal of non-core deployment functionality from JATS.`
		6817	`Deployment package will be affected.`
		6818
		6819	`The build.pl file of deployment package will need to import deployment`
		6820	`support with a BuildPkgArchive directive. ie:`
		6821
		6822	`BuildPkgArchive ( 'deployfiles', '1.0.0.cr' );`
		6823
		6824	`This version of deployfiles contains the same functionality as that provided`
		6825	`by the previous version of JATS. Version 2 of this package will be the start`
		6826	`of a deployment system that will provide support for building InstallShield`
		6827	`packages.`
		6828
		6829	`* Deployment support utilities must be run under JATS`
		6830	`The environment required for the deployment support utilities is complex`
		6831	`and is provided by the JATS wrapper script.`
		6832
		6833	`This is a change in usage. Instead of running the program 'updatenodespec'`
		6834	`the user will need to run 'jats updatenodespec'`
		6835
		6836	`Minor changes:`
		6837	`* SubDir directive`
		6838	`Added a sanity test to detect the case when a 'SubDir' directive specifies`
		6839	`a directory from two different makefiles.`
		6840
		6841	`* Tools: Dependancy generator mkdepend`
		6842	`If an include file was referenced by a symbolic name, then the generated`
		6843	`dependancy information would be wrong for all but the first occurrence`
		6844	`of the file usage.`
		6845
		6846	`* New utility: jats_manifest`
		6847	`Used by the build system to generate and validate source files.`
		6848	`Beta Release: Windows only at the moment`
		6849
		6850	`* Unit tests under SOLARIS_sparc`
		6851	`The LD_LIBRARY_PATH has been modified to correctly pick up libraries`
		6852	`generated within the build and have been installed locally.`
		6853
		6854	`* Default behaviour of JATS the wrapper script`
		6855	`This has been changed. Previous unknown commands were passed to make.`
		6856	`In this release unknown comamnds will be treated a 'etool' commands and`
		6857	`will execute a JATS extended command.`
		6858
		6859
		6860	`Internal Changes:`
		6861	`* Code refactor`
		6862	`Created JatsEnv to encapsulate functionality that was multiply defined.`
		6863
		6864	`* Deployment utilities`
		6865	`The Perl module Ignorelist.pm and the .ccignore file`
		6866	`Changed the mechanism by which this module locates a .ccignore file.`
		6867	`The .ccignore file has been moved to the same directory as the module and`
		6868	`the module can locate the file.`
		6869
		6870	`Previously the module required an environment variable in order to locate`
		6871	`the file, which was in a fixed location anyway.`
		6872
		6873	`* JATS core`
		6874	`Removed the use of the environment variable PERLINC.`
		6875
		6876	`Better parsing of descpkg files.`
		6877
		6878	`* JATS core debugging: JatsError.pm`
		6879	`Allow control over the debug and verbose messages of specific programs`
		6880	`through the use of environment variables.`
		6881
		6882	`A program reporting errors as "name" can be controlled via environment`
		6883	`variables GBE_name_VERBOSE and GBE_name_DEBUG.`
		6884
		6885	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6886	`Modified the subdirectories transferred with this directive to include:`
		6887	`deployfiles - as used by the deployment system`
		6888	`tools/scripts - as used by perl based extensions`
		6889
		6890	`* Make environment`
		6891	`Extended the PERL5LIB path seen by perl programs executed under make to`
		6892	`include 'tools/script' directories that contain Perl Modules.`
		6893
		6894
		6895	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6896	`Version: JATS_2.53.2 Released: 13-Jun-06`
		6897	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6898	`Major changes:`
		6899	`* Deployment. GetMassInstId.rul (From George Christidis)`
		6900	`Added support for SILENT_MODE`
		6901
		6902
		6903	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6904	`Version: JATS_2.53.1 Released: Not release`
		6905	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6906
		6907	`Not Released.`
		6908	`This label waas used as a place keeper. This version was not used as a basis`
		6909	`for JATS_2.53.2. Its much closer to JATS_2.54.0.`
		6910
		6911
		6912	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6913	`Version: JATS_2.53.0 Released: 11-Apr-06`
		6914	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6915	`Major changes:`
		6916	`* Deployment Scripts: Release Manager Database Access`
		6917	`The mechanism for communicating with the Release Manager Database has been`
		6918	`radically replaced.`
		6919
		6920	`A test tool has been added to prove connectivity to Release Manager.`
		6921	`Usage:`
		6922	`jats etool test_rmconnection`
		6923
		6924	`The pervious scripts used DBI::ODBC to communicate with the Oracle`
		6925	`Database that contains Release Manager. There were a number of problems with`
		6926	`this solution:`
		6927	`- Required the installation of two Perl Modules`
		6928	`- Required the installation of an Oracle client`
		6929	`- Required the use of an ODBC bridge machine when used on Solaris`
		6930	`- Support for Perl within Oracle appears to be on the decline`
		6931
		6932	`The solutions uses a Java application and Java's jdbc. The oracle:thin`
		6933	`client is used as this does not require any installation or configuration in`
		6934	`order to work.`
		6935
		6936	`JATS overrides Perl's DBI package with a package of the same name, but`
		6937	`reduced functionality.`
		6938
		6939
		6940	`Minor changes:`
		6941	`* makefile.pl directive: SetValue`
		6942	`Added a '--' option to disable and enable parsing of options.`
		6943	`This allows a value with leading '--' to be set.`
		6944
		6945	`* makefile.pl directive: SetList`
		6946	`Added this directive to formalise the creation and processing of lists`
		6947	`within the makefiles.`
		6948	`Options:`
		6949	`--NoWarn Disable name clash warnings`
		6950	`--Project=xxxx[,xxxx]+ Add to list in selected projects`
		6951	`--Unique Add only if not already present`
		6952	`--Clear Clear list, before adding new items`
		6953	`--Append Append items to list (default)`
		6954	`-- Disable/Enable option parsing`
		6955	`Useage:`
		6956
		6957	`SetList ('*', 'LibList', 'lib1', 'lib2', '--Project=syd');`
		6958	`SharedLib ('*', 'MyDLL', @OBJS, @LibList );`
		6959
		6960	`* Makefile.pl directive: RunTest`
		6961	`Corrected the option of the --CopyIn=file option where the specified file`
		6962	`is not in the current directory.`
		6963
		6964	`* Jats Command: ant'`
		6965	`This command has been extended to make use of the -buildfile=xxxx option`
		6966	`to allow multiple buildfiles to be differentiated.`
		6967
		6968	`eg: jats -buildfile=MyPackage ant`
		6969
		6970	`* TOOLSET: DAFBR Compiler support`
		6971	`Modified the toolset to support an optimisation feature of the next`
		6972	`generation of the daf_br_compiler. These will be enabled if the major version`
		6973	`of the package containing the compiler is greater the "1". ie: 2.0.0.cr`
		6974
		6975	`* Interface helper files: set_XXXX.bat/.sh`
		6976	`Added provision to process user command arguments.`
		6977	`Thus`
		6978
		6979	`set_WIN32.bat prog`
		6980
		6981	`will set the WIN32 environment and run the command: prog`
		6982

		6985	`Version: JATS_2.52.2 Released: 30-Mar-06`
		6986	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6987	`Major changes:`
		6988
		6989	`Minor changes:`
		6990	`* Addressed issue with BUILDNAME, an internal variable.`
		6991	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user build.pl's they need to be`
		6992	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a project`
		6993	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		6994	`$(BUILDNAME) contains two or three space seperated fields - always`
		6995
		6996	`* m16c Toolset - MCRFirmware`
		6997	`Force the generation of .thx and payload files when the .bin files are`
		6998	`created. Previously this only occured in the packaging phase.`
		6999
		7000	`Internal changes:`
		7001	`* JATS toolsets`
		7002	`Added a feature to allow a toolset to flag additional files that get created`
		7003	`as a part of a "Prog". This allows a "Prog" definition to generate a`
		7004	`number of files, some which may be packaged.`
		7005
		7006	`Previously such files where only generated during the packaging phase. Now`
		7007	`they will be generated during the make_prog phase - with the other programs.`
		7008
		7009	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7010	`Version: JATS_2.52.1 Released: 29-Mar-06`
		7011	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7012	`Major changes:`
		7013	`* Jats command: etool`
		7014	`Extended to allow execution of deployment tools. This allows the deployment`
		7015	`tools to use the JATS core perl modules.`
		7016
		7017	`* Address issues with the use of BUILDVER and ScmBuildVer`
		7018	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user makefile.pl's they need to be`
		7019	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a projectt`
		7020	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		7021	`$(BUILDVERSION) contains the project extension - always`
		7022	`$ScmBuildVersion does not contain a project extension - always`
		7023
		7024	`Minor changes:`
		7025
		7026
		7027	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7028	`Version: JATS_2.52.0 Released: 27-Mar-06`

		7030	`Major changes:`
		7031	`* JATS environment variables`
		7032	`Added GBE_DPKG_STORE`
		7033	`Optionally addresses a dpkg_archive store. This is intended to allow`
		7034	`read only access to a remote repository. The GBE_DPKG_STORE will be`
		7035	`searched after GBE_DPKG. It will be searched last. JATS, be default,`
		7036	`will not publish packages in this repository.`
		7037
		7038	`Uses: Seed repository for a complete build`
		7039	`Remote repository`
		7040
		7041	`Added GBE_DPLY`
		7042	`Optionally addresses a Deployment Archive. This is only used in the`
		7043	`placement of deployment packages. This value may be project specific.`
		7044
		7045	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		7046	`Changes the mechanism used to link against the compiler RTL.`
		7047	`Previously the RTL was included multiple times in the link order. This`
		7048	`created problem with daf_dsi as the function 'time()' was being satisfied by`
		7049	`the RTL before being satisfied by the user libraries.`
		7050
		7051	`The compiler RTL is now treated as a library of last resort. It will be`
		7052	`processed once and it will be processed last.`
		7053
		7054
		7055	`Minor changes:`
		7056	`* JATS utility: build`
		7057	`* JATS utility: cache_dpkg`
		7058	`Extended the package search algorithm to locate a package within`
		7059	`GBE_DPKG_STORE. This archive will be searched last.`
		7060
		7061	`* JATS utility: gen_cots`
		7062	`Ensure label is not locked`
		7063	`Add option to allow user to specify source directory other than a package`
		7064	`that already exists in dpkg_archive.`
		7065
		7066	`* JATS directive: PackageFile`
		7067	`Now supports --Prod and --Debug options to limit the packaging process`
		7068	`to a specific type of build.`
		7069
		7070	`* JATS directive: GenerateFiles and RunTests`
		7071	`Added a --PackageInfo() replacement tag to allow package version information`
		7072	`to be extracted and passed to generator programs.`
		7073	`ie: --PackageInfo(sysbasetypes,syd,--fullversion)`
		7074
		7075	`Extended the --PackageBase() replacement tag to work with packages such as`
		7076	`sysbasetypes, where there is a .cr and a .syd type.`
		7077	`ie: --PackageBase(sysbasetypes,syd)`
		7078
		7079	`* JATS utility: release`
		7080	`Under windows, ensure that the directory C:\Clearcase exists. There have`
		7081	`been installations of Clearcase where this is directory does not exist.`
		7082
		7083	`* JATS utility: label`
		7084	`Added option: "-comment=Text" to allow a comment to be added to a label,`
		7085	`when it is being created.`
		7086
		7087	`Internal Changes`
		7088	`* JATS utility: create_dpkg`
		7089	`Refactored code to use JATS DescPkg class.`
		7090
		7091	`Added options to allow packaging to the various archives. This is of no use`
		7092	`to the normal developer, but will be used within the complete build system.`
		7093
		7094	`* Factored out the parsing of the BuildName directive`
		7095	`This process was being done in 3 locations - and there were getting`
		7096	`different results.`
		7097
		7098	`* ToolsetRequire directive`
		7099	`This has been extended to allow JATS to locate Toolset extensions within`
		7100	`packages. They should be placed within the tool/scripts directory`
		7101
		7102	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7103	`Version: JATS_2.51.0 Released: 15-Mar-06`

		7112	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7113	`Major changes:`
		7114	`* WIN32 utilities`
		7115	`Replaced a number of the Windows utilities ( cp, rm, mv ...)`
		7116	`with versions from the GNUWin32 project.`
		7117
		7118	`The 'cp' previously used could not recursively copy large directories`
		7119	`under Windows Server 2003, when both the source and destination are on the`
		7120	`same drive. ( dpkg_cache of ace ).`
		7121
		7122	`Minor changes:`
		7123	`* BuildVersion`
		7124	`The definition of VERSION_BUILD within the generated version-defs.h file`
		7125	`will have leading zeros removed, thus allowing it to be used within a 'C'`
		7126	`program without the number being interpreted as an octal constant.`
		7127
		7128	`The string form (VERSION_BUILD_STR) will retain the zeros.`
		7129
		7130	`* Unix Builds`
		7131	`Corrected several issues encountered when specifying the name of a static`
		7132	`library or a shared library.`
		7133
		7134	`JATS will prepend 'lib' to the user specified library name. Problems occurred`
		7135	`when the user specified a library name that started with 'lib'. Now, on Unix`
		7136	`systems, JATS will only prepend 'lib' if the library name does not already`
		7137	`start with 'lib'.`
		7138
		7139	`* BuildPkgArchive`
		7140	`Since 2.45.0 JATS will only transfer files for the BuildPkgArchive, if`
		7141	`they have not already been transferred. Added a test for the source`
		7142	`package being updated and then forceing the copy to be repeated.`
		7143

		7145	`Version: JATS_2.49.0 Released: 10-Feb-06`
		7146	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7147	`Major changes:`
		7148	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		7149	`Corrected a problem with the dependencies between a .REL file and the target`
		7150	`THX file. If the .REL files was modified the output THX file did not get`
		7151	`regenerated. This was only a problem in cases where the .REL file was`
		7152	`being manually maintained.`
		7153
		7154
		7155	`Minor changes:`
		7156	`* MakeAnt directive`
		7157	`Introduced a check to ensure that this directive is only used with a toolset`
		7158	`that can handle an 'ant' build file. Currently only the JAVA toolset`
		7159	`supports ANT builds.`
		7160
		7161	`* BuildPkgArchive directive`
		7162	`Correct problem in the caching of BuildPkgArchive packages in the case where`
		7163	`there is no GBE_DPKG_LOCAL on the machine.`
		7164
		7165	`* Label utility`
		7166	`Added a 'files=filename,filename' option to allow only specified`
		7167	`files to be labeled.`

		7174	`Fix a bug with the CompilerOptions that allowed a '0' definition to be set to`
		7175	`nothing.`
		7176
		7177	`* MOS Toolset`
		7178	`Added 'CompileOptions' of CcSupervisor.`
		7179	`This will set a MOS internal definition suitable for building specialised`
		7180	`modules.`
		7181
		7182	`* Utility: gen_cots`
		7183	`This utility will create a JATS buildable package froma dpkg_archive entry`
		7184	`and then check it in under clearcase.`
		7185
		7186	`JATS etool gen_cots -man will provide only help.`

227	dpurdie	7201
		7202	`* Utility: release (cbuild)`
		7203	`Added an option to create a view configured to work with a branching`
		7204	`rule. A single branch can be named with the -branch option. eg:`
		7205
		7206	`jats release -extract 'label' -branch SITS_LEGACY_BRANCH`
		7207
		7208	`will create a view based on the named label, but suitable for creating`
		7209	`a patch for Sydney Legacy work.`
		7210
		7211	`* RunTest directive`
		7212	`The 'PATH' that the test uses is extended to allow access to programs that have`
		7213	`been installed with a InstallProg directive. This allows a test script to`
		7214	`test a program that is generated elsewhere within the package.`
		7215
		7216	`* PackageFile, Option --DirTree`
		7217	`Support for filenames that contain a "$" or a ' ' within the`
		7218	`--DirTree option. Implemented to allow entire JAVA class trees to be`
		7219	`packaged under JATS`
		7220
		7221	`Note: In general the use of a $ and space within a filename is not`
		7222	`supported within JATS.`
		7223
		7224	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7225	`Added an eprog option. The allows any program to be run within the`
		7226	`sanitized environment provided by JATS.`
		7227
		7228	`The specified program may be in the current directory or the user's`
		7229	`PATH. If the program is a perl script then it will be run with the`
		7230	`JATS perl interpreter, otherwise it will be processed by the system.`
		7231
		7232	`Eg: jats eprog myscript arg1 arg2`
		7233	`Eg: jats ant`
		7234
		7235	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7236	`Added an 'ant' command. ( "jats ant" )`
		7237
5710	dpurdie	7238	`This will run an VIX ANT build by scanning the current directory for a file`
227	dpurdie	7239	`called <ProjectName>depends.xml and then looking the a file called`
		7240	`<ProjectName>.xml. Jats will then create 'auto.xml' based on the`
		7241	`<ProjectName>depends.xml file and use ant to invoke the`
		7242	`<ProjectName>.xml file.`
		7243
5710	dpurdie	7244	`If the VIX build files cannot be found then ant is simply run and it will`
227	dpurdie	7245	`expect a build.pl file.`
		7246
		7247	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7248	`Force the environment variable PERL5INC to be unset.`
		7249
		7250	`* Jats utility: create_dpkg`
		7251	`Simplify handling of ANT based projects. Look for the package within`
		7252	`the build/pkg subdirectory, in the JANTS style.`
		7253
		7254	`* Utility: gen_winrc (DEVI-022054)`
		7255	`Added a "'-product=text'" option to allow the product name to be specified.`
		7256
		7257	`* Build files`
		7258	`Handle the java generated descpkg files. These are a Manifest format with`
5710	dpurdie	7259	`VIX extensions.`

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

		7500	`Major changes:`
		7501	`* BuildAlias directive`
		7502	`Added options.`
		7503	`--Define - Does not create implicit platforms`
		7504	`--Target - Redeclares the alais as the list of all`
		7505	`platforms that are based on a given target or`
		7506	`targets.`
		7507	`Eg:`
		7508	`BuildAlias ( 'LMOS,--Target', 'LMOS_WIN32', 'LMOS_linux_armv4' );`
		7509	`BuildProduct ( 'GAK', 'LMOS', 'MOS68K', 'MOSCF' );`
		7510	`BuildProduct ( 'PCP', 'LMOS', 'MOS68K' );`
		7511
		7512	`Will export an alias of LMOS that can be used within makefile.pl's`
		7513	`that will be the list of all platforms that have a target of`
		7514	`'LMOS_WIN32' or 'LMOS_linux_armv4'.`
		7515
		7516	`Note the dual use of LMOS within the example. This is intentional.`
		7517	`The LMOS alias is used within the BuildProduct to simplify the`
		7518	`specification of all the LMOS targets.`
		7519
		7520
		7521	`Minor changes:`
		7522	`* Label utility`
		7523	`Will generate a warning message if it labels more than one`
		7524	`build.pl file`
		7525
		7526	`* Package directives. PackageFile.`
		7527	`Corrected a problem with wildcard expansion in which a --FilterIn`
		7528	`needed to be specified in order for the --FilterOut to operate.`
		7529	`Now all files in the tree are considered 'in' unless modified by the`
		7530	`--FilterIn option.`
		7531
		7532	`* jats release (cbuilder) utility`
		7533	`Correct use of the -prodOnly and -debugOnly flags.`
		7534	`The full name was not accepted; -debug and -prod was.`
		7535
		7536	`* Location of descpkg file`
		7537	`All makefile.pl's now know where the package descpkg file was`
		7538	`created. This simplifies the process og packaging this file as it`
		7539	`can be done within any makefile.pl.`

		7546	`Extended the options and operation of RunTest`
		7547	`Additional options`
		7548	`--CopyIn=file`
		7549	`This will copy the specified file into the BIN directory before`
		7550	`the test is run. The file will be marked as executable. This`
		7551	`allows scripts and configuration files to be transferred into`
		7552	`the test area.`
		7553
		7554	`Additional operations`
		7555	`The arguments passed to the script/program allow a number of`
		7556	`transformations, similar to GenerateFiles. Transforms`
		7557	`--File(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a known file`
		7558	`--Local(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a file that has been Installed`

		7586
		7587	`The default will use the default machine version of JAVA.`
		7588	`This may not be sutable for all packages.`
		7589
		7590	`Non-default versions of JAVA require that an environment variable be`
		7591	`set to the root of the JDK directory. These are:`

		7600
		7601	`* JATS environment`
		7602	`Ensure that all programs run under JATS in Windows have an uppercase`
		7603	`COMSPEC envvar. Windows appears to define a mixed case one. Fixed in`
		7604	`the JATS wrapper script.`

		7646	`'--FilterOut=MyHeader.h' - Except this one`
		7647
		7648	`The --StripDir option will remove the TreeDir directory from the`

		7681	`The default is to build both. Note: User option may be further`
		7682	`restricted by options within the build.`
		7683
		7684	`* PackageLib, InstallLib and MergeLib directives in makefile.pl`
		7685	`The use of @LIBS and @MLIBS in unix systems was causing a`
		7686	`problem as these variables already had a 'lib' prepended to the`
		7687	`list of libraries. These directives would add another 'lib' to the`
		7688	`list of libraries under unix causing a mismatch.`
		7689
		7690	`Corrected by stripping liblib from the names within these`
		7691	`directives.`
		7692
		7693	`* MakeProject directive`
		7694	`If the project build fails the log file was not being displayed`
		7695	`because 'make' stops when a command fails.`
		7696
		7697	`The MakeProject operations have been modified to ensure that the`
		7698	`log file is always displayed. The exit code of the build command`
		7699	`is preserved.`
		7700
		7701	`* Auto build utility jats-rewrite.pl`
		7702	`Modified to support the rewrite of Java 'using' and 'project'`
		7703	`statements.`
		7704
		7705	`* Mugfile generation`
		7706	`Added a --ThxDir=xxxx option to allow the THX and load files to`
		7707	`be placed in the target package.`

		7713	`Major changes:`
		7714	`* BuildVersion directive`
		7715	`The 'defs' mode has been extended to create a file with a build`
		7716	`number as well as a patch number.`
		7717
		7718	`The patch number is decoded into a patch number and a build`
		7719	`number.`
		7720
		7721	`Minor changes:`
		7722	`* AddFlags directives`
		7723	`Added a --NoWarn option that will suppress the warning of`
		7724	`duplicate flags being added.`
		7725
		7726	`* GBE_CORE environment variable (Windows)`
		7727	`Ensure that GBE_CORE has a driver letter. This allows use of JATS`
		7728	`loaded into the same dynamic view as the user code.`
		7729
		7730	`* Mug File Generation`
		7731	`Added support to allow load files to include other load files.`
		7732
		7733	`* 'cbuild' or 'release' command`
		7734	`Added a -latestroot=xxxx option. This is a work around for the`
		7735	`problem where the root level directory in the VOB has not been`
		7736	`labeled. After using this switch add the label to the root`
		7737	`directory.`
		7738
		7739	`The need to use this this switch indicates that the view is NOT`
		7740	`reproducible.`

		7769	`Enhanced (thanks Ross) to allow PATH information for various`
		7770	`target platforms to be extracted.`
		7771
		7772	`Better support for Product families. This is only an issue`
		7773	`for WIN32 derived families due to the generation of a list of`
		7774	`libraries. The list now observes Product hierarchy.`
		7775
		7776	`* Utility: release (cbuilder)`

5710	dpurdie	7803	`the VIX "Unit Test Automation" guidelines should be marked as`
227	dpurdie	7804	`-- Auto.`
		7805
		7806	`* Added a new make target: run_unit_tests`
		7807	`This will be used by the build tool to run non-interactive`
		7808	`unit tests within an automated framework.`
		7809
		7810	`* Make run_test and run_unit_test operation`
		7811	`The search path for DLL's or Shared Libraries is extended to`
		7812	`include all Shared Libraries in the build package list as well`

		7814	`locate required Shared Libraries at runtime.`
		7815
		7816	`* WIN32 targets built using Visual Studio 6`
		7817	`The path to the compiler is setup within JATS. It is no longer`

		7819	`indeterminate when multiple versions of Visual Studio are`
		7820	`installed on the machine.`
		7821
		7822	`* WINCE Targets`
		7823	`The name of the SDK is case sensitive.`

		7836
		7837	`* Building DLL or EXE with the --NoPDB option will disable the`
		7838	`generation of debug information so that the linker does not`

		7840
		7841	`* UNIX Platforms (SOLARIS and LINUX)`
		7842	`Modification to allow BuildProduct and BuildPkgArchive to`
		7843	`interwork. Previously BuildPkgArchive packages were placed into`
		7844	`the 'interface/lib/SOLARIS' subdirectory and this was not being`
		7845	`searched when looking for libraries.`
		7846
		7847	`Minor changes:`

		7849	`New sub-options to filename generation commands`
		7850	`--abspath - provide the named file with an absolute path`
		7851	`--absdrive - provide the named file with an absolute path`
		7852	`and drive letter`
		7853
		7854	`* Src directive`
		7855	`Modified the --FromPackage' option to allow searching of the root`
		7856	`directory of a package.`
		7857
		7858	`Src('*', 'etc/data.ini', '--FromPackage' );`
		7859
		7860	`Also prevent warnings on duplicate files if the package is`

		7903	`Minor changes:`
		7904	`* Jats wrapper script`
		7905	`Windows: Ensure that cmd.exe is in the users PATH. Without cmd.exe`

		7908
		7909	`* LinkPkgArchive and BuildPkgArchive`
		7910	`Processing soft links. Generate a warnings if a package soft`

		7938
		7939	`* MakeAnt directive`
		7940	`Now supports --Debug and --Prod options to limit the building of`
		7941	`ANT files. The MakeAnt directive is only going to work in`
		7942	`conjunction with the JAVA target`

		7979	`* Support for Windows DLLs`
		7980	`When building a WIN32 target the file interface/set_WIN32.bat is`

		8029	`force LinkPkgArchive directives to be interpreted as`

		8033
		8034	`* WINCE and WIN32 Toolset`

		8060	`Multiple platforms should be specified as:`
		8061	`Src( 'PLAT1,PLAT2,PLAT3', .... );`
		8062	`with only a comma between the platforms: No whitespace`
		8063	`If whitespace did exist then the makefile.pl would not do what`
		8064	`was expected - and it would not warn the user. The simplest`
		8065	`solution was to allow whitespace either side of the comma.`
		8066
		8067	`* GenerateFiles directive within makefile.pl`
		8068	`Allow 3 different bracket styles for the arguments to allow for`

		8119	`production.`
		8120

		8144	`The PDB files created when compiling objects for DLLs are now not`

		8261
		8262	`* Preliminary Support`
		8263	`Global build options of --OnlyDebug and --OnlyProd, which are`

		8308
		8309	`* LinkPkgArchive and BuildPkgArchive will cause the build to fail if`

		8313
		8314	`Minor changes:`

		8515	`Major changes:`
		8516	`* Modified the order in which the makefiles passes operate. Merged`
		8517	`the make_shlib and the install_shlib into one phase. The`

		8568	`* SOLARIS toolset`
		8569	`Prevent the compiler displaying its command line. This is in line`

		8616	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8617	`Version: JATS_2.10.0 Released: 11-Mar-05`
		8618	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8619	`Major changes:`
		8620	`* Extended BuildName to accept the form`
		8621	`BuildName ('package_name', 'nn.nn.nn.xxx' );`
		8622
		8623	`* MOS68K and MOSCF toolset.`
		8624	`Extended the --board option to allow the user to define code and`
		8625	`data addresses for the board.`
		8626
		8627	`BuildProduct( 'TP5', 'MOSCF','--board=01234H,05678H' );`
		8628
		8629	`Will set the code,data address for the debugable image`
		8630
		8631	`* Extended the PackageXxxxx options`
		8632	`1) Allow --Platform=xxx,yyy`
		8633	`Where xxx is a directory prefix and yyy is suffix to the`
		8634	`"platform" name. Only useful within the context of the`
		8635	`PackageFile`
		8636
		8637	`2) The operation of --Platform=xxx when used by the PackageFile`
		8638	`directive now treats the xxx directory as a prefix to the`
		8639	`platform name. Other Package directives still treat it as a`
		8640	`suffix. In practice this is the logical use.`
		8641
		8642	`* Allow InstallLib and PackageLib to install a file that has been`
		8643	`discovered with a "Src" directive. This allows generated files`
		8644	`to be installed and packaged.`
		8645
		8646	`Minor changes:`
		8647
		8648	`* cache_dpkg utility`
		8649	`If a package is found in the local_dpkg_archive then the cache`
		8650	`entry will be deleted and the master archive will not be accessed.`
		8651
		8652	`* label utility`
		8653	`New option -auto to create and label`
		8654
		8655	`* Build WIN32 and WinCe Mutual DLLs with all the object files`
		8656	`This allows the generated import library to contain C++ names`
		8657
		8658	`* The BuildDirTree directive now supports an empty first argument`
		8659	`This allows a NULL tree.dir file, while still creating the root`
		8660	`directory. ie:`
		8661
		8662	`BuildDirTree ( '', 'pkg' );`
		8663
		8664	`* Fixed DEVIM 00019520`
		8665	`The problem was that /bin/pwd could return a different path to`
		8666	`the Cwd:getpwd() function. Solution: Use one mechanism throughout.`
		8667
		8668
		8669	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8670	`Version: JATS_2.9.0 Released: 28-Feb-05`
		8671	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8672	`Major changes:`
		8673	`* First release for Back Office and Front Office use.`
		8674
		8675	`* Added the jats tool jats_rewrite.pl to rewrite build.pl files.`
		8676	`To be used by the nightly build process.`
		8677
		8678	`* Work around a problem in the Microtec 68K compiler.`
		8679	`The compiler uses temp files. If the temp file name that the`
		8680	`compiler uses already exists, then the compiler will not delete`
		8681	`the file. Instead it appends information to the existing file.`
		8682
		8683	`The workaround is to create the temp files within the build's`
		8684	`interface directory and to remove all temp files before each`
		8685	`compilation.`
		8686
		8687	`This bug does not affect the Mictotec CF compiler.`
		8688
		8689	`Minor changes:`
		8690	`* The "jats clobber" command will remove version definition file, if`
		8691	`one is being produced.`
		8692
		8693	`* Using JATS within a Visual Studio project. The "rebuild all"`
		8694	`option now translates to the JATS unbuild command to do a better`
		8695	`job of cleaning the workspace.`
		8696
		8697	`* Added GetPackageRoot() directive to support the packaging of MOS`
		8698
		8699	`* Generate error message for misuse of the SubDir directive`
		8700
		8701	`* Modified BuildName to allow an '-' in the name.`
		8702	`This provides backward compatibility with existing packages.`
		8703
		8704	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8705	`Version: JATS_2.8.0 Released: 17-Feb-05`
		8706	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8707	`Major changes:`
		8708	`* Added some new WINCE based targets. These require WINCE SDKs to be`
		8709	`installed in order for the compilers to work.`
		8710
		8711	`* New PLATFORMS are WCEIT3000, WCEPA961 and WCEPCM7220`
		8712
		8713	`* All invocations of xmake specify the name of the makefile`
		8714	`This allow GNUMakefiles and the Jats makefiles to exist in the`
		8715	`same directory`
		8716
		8717	`* Overcome a limitation of the Microtec compiler in which the flag`
		8718	`_DEBUG is defined enev in production builds - contrary to the`
		8719	`documenattion.`
		8720
		8721	`Minor changes:`
		8722	`* Process of descpkg files allows for both Unix and DOS line endings`
		8723	`Under Unix JATS would report that the package names don't match`
		8724
		8725	`* Corrected a problem with BuildPkgArchive in which file names with`
		8726	`spaces could not be soft linked. Only affects Unix systems.`
		8727
		8728	`* Added a -rename to the "jats label" utility.`
		8729	`Ensure that the user specified label exists in the VOB`
		8730
		8731	`* Correct problem with "make clean" that resulted in a verbose display`
		8732	`when the verbose option had not been selected`
		8733
		8734	`* Correct a problem with "make unbuild". Changes in the build files`
		8735	`would prevent the execution of the command. This command should`
		8736	`be exempt from this test.`
		8737
		8738	`* Correct a problem with "make clean" in the WIN32 and WINCE`
		8739	`platforms where the .exp files were not deleted.`
		8740
		8741	`* The "JATS clobber" command now invokes "make clobber" and "build`
		8742	`clobber". The result is as clean a clean as it can be.`
		8743
		8744	`Note: Jats "clean" does not remove a lot of files. These can be`
		8745	`removed with "unbuild" and "unpackage". This is what "clobber"`
		8746	`does.`
		8747
		8748	`* The operation of "build clobber" has been cleaned up. It will`
		8749	`not try to invoke make if the makefiles have already been removed.`
		8750
		8751
		8752	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8753	`Version: JATS_2.7.0 Released: 09-Feb-05`
		8754	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8755	`Major changes:`
		8756	`* First release with support for the DAFBR compiler`
		8757
		8758	`* Extended MergeLibrary. Added per-file options of:`
		8759	`--Interface - Pull lib from Interface directory`
		8760	`--Local - Pull lib from Local directory (default)`
		8761	`--SubDir=pathname - Pull lib from a subdirectory`
		8762	`Note: xxxx,pathname still works`
		8763
		8764	`* Added "jats label" to provide a number of useful labeling`
		8765	`operations.`
		8766
		8767	`* Added extensive help to JATS. JATS -man.`
		8768
		8769	`* Added this manual ChangeLog file`
		8770
		8771	`Minor changes`
		8772	`* Added an 'ebin' command to jats to allow the JATS binary tools to`
		8773	`be run in a controlled environment from the command line.`
		8774
		8775	`* Prune the list of library paths passed through to the various`
		8776	`toolsets. If a directory does not have any files in it then the`
		8777	`directory is not added to the library path.`
		8778
		8779	`Thus if a library is located in xxxx/lib/WIN32 then JATS will`
		8780	`not add the xxxx/lib to the path.`
		8781
		8782	`* cbuilder will now look in all VOBs for the user specified label.`
		8783	`The program has a list of "known" labels which it will search`
		8784	`first in an attempt to speed up the process.`
		8785
		8786	`* The AddFlags directive will issue a warning if the flags does not`
		8787	`begin with a -D or a -U. The user should not be using compiler`
		8788	`specific flags.`
		8789
		8790	`* The use of linker flags will issue a warning.`
		8791
		8792	`* Process the common makefile.pl after the toolset has been`
		8793	`determined. This allows the toolset to extend the CompileOptions`
		8794	`such they are available to the common makefile.pl.`
		8795
		8796	`* Added the WIN32 CompileOptions "jats_v1" to force JATS to specify`
		8797	`a number of compile time definitions used by earlier versions of`
		8798	`JATS.`
		8799
		8800	`* Fixed bug in the --Debug option to the PackageProg directives that`
		8801	`caused both the production and debug versions to be packaged.`
		8802
		8803	`* The gen_msproject utility now creates simpler names for the MS`
		8804	`projects that it creates. The name no longer contains the full`
		8805	`pathname, thus making them shorter and readable.`
		8806
		8807	`* The ShowDlls utility now handles absolute and relative paths to`
		8808	`the initial DLL or EXE.`
		8809
		8810	`* Correct problem in which the use of Generate/Rule directives may`
		8811	`fail since prerequisite subdirectories were not being created`
		8812	`since the "generate" phase was not being run.`
		8813
		8814	`Added messages to prompt the user to remove Generate, Generated`
		8815	`and Rule directives. Use the GenerateFiles directive`
		8816
		8817	`* JATS.BAT file will exclude LINUX builds by default.`
		8818
		8819	`* The make NODEPEND=1 processing now does not recurse at all.`
		8820	`Previously each subdirectory was visited - only to do nothing.`
		8821
		8822	`* Correct a problem in creating stub libraries for MOS targets if`
		8823	`the stub library object was not listed with the SharedLib's`
		8824	`objects.`
		8825
		8826	`* Correct a problem with the MS Studio support. The invoked make`
		8827	`command is XXX_all_debug. There was a problem with this command in`
		8828	`that it did not do any dependancy checking and would not always`
		8829	`build defendants.`
