		2853
377	dpurdie	2854	`A useful side effect of this change is that VS2010 running on`

		2876	`Debug information is created for both production and debug builds`
		2877	`Debug information is placed in a .dbg file, which is linked to the`
		2878	`executable, or shared library. The .dbg file is packaged in the manner`
		2879	`as the main binary.`
		2880
		2881	`This methodology does not bloat the binary with debug information, while`
		2882	`retaining debug information. The binary transferred to an embedded`
		2883	`device does not contain debug information, yet the image used in the`
		2884	`debugger can still access the debug information. This is the best of`
		2885	`both worlds.`

		2901	`Softlinks to packages within the sandbox are now relative to the root of`

		3541
		3542	`Minor changes:`
		3543	`* jats label command - Renaming a label`
		3544	`Address issue when renaming a label when the current ClearCase view is`
		3545	`based on the label. All operation after the rename must specify the VOB`

		3547
		3548	`* Better handling of .lnk files used within sandboxes and local package`
		3549	`archives. Now strip all trailing white space correctly`

		3573	`Major changes:`
		3574	`* New Utility: upddep - Update Dependencies`
		3575	`This utility will update the dependencies in a build.pl file to be`
		3576	`consistent with those of a given Release Manager Release. This simplifies`
		3577	`the operation of maintain build files during development.`
		3578
		3579	`It will create an 'auto.pl' file, which JATS uses in preference to a`
		3580	`build.pl file. DO NOT check this file in.`
		3581
		3582	`See: 'jats upddep -help' - For brief help`
		3583	`'jats upddep -man' - For full manual`

		3590	`* MicroTec Compiler toolset`
		3591	`When creating a ShardLibrary (THX) report missing libraries before`
		3592	`compiling the objects that go into the THX.`
		3593
		3594	`This ensures that the error messages the describe the missing library`
		3595	`can be seen and are not masked by the building of the objects.`
		3596
		3597	`Minor changes:`
		3598
		3599	`Internal changes:`
		3600	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`

		3605	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		3606	`Major changes:`
		3607	`* Makefile directive helper function: If`
		3608	`Used within another directive to enable or disable arguments passed to the`
		3609	`outer directive. The first argument is a 'platform' specifier - as in`
		3610	`all Jats Make directives. If making for the specified platform, then the`
		3611	`remainder of the arguments are inserted into the directives argument`
		3612	`stream.`
		3613
		3614	`Example:`
		3615
		3616	`SharedLib ( '*', 'mySharedLib', @OBJS`

		3621	`* Makefile directive: InstallLibs`
		3622	`Correctly installs, as libraries, files that are specified with a 'Src'`
		3623	`directive. This is consistent with the operation of the PackageLibs`
		3624	`directive.`
		3625
		3626	`* GCC Toolkit`
		3627	`Changes to the shared library dependency processing to bring it inline`
		3628	`with other toolers. Will terminate after determining that some`
		3629	`libraries cannot be found. This will ensure that the error message is at`
		3630	`the point of termination.`
		3631
		3632	`* Jats save_build utility`
		3633	`Corrected problem in unreserving a reserved checkout of a build.pl file`
		3634	`under windows.`
		3635
		3636	`* Jats sandbox`
		3637	`ClearCase views created with in the sandbox are created with a tag that`

		3639	`in different sandboxes.`
		3640
		3641	`* Jats release`
		3642	`Display cleartool error messages when view creation fails.`

		3656	`Improved handling of the -file and -dir options`
		3657	`These options will now label the directory elements within the paths`
		3658	`specified by these options, when used in conjunction with the -up option.`
		3659	`This simplified the process of labeling complex directory structures.`
		3660
		3661	`Added -admin, to allow creation of global labels`
		3662
		3663	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
317	dpurdie	3664	`Version: 2.83.0000.cr Released: 20-Jan-10`

		3676
		3677	`* Solaris targets`
		3678	`Full support for a target called SOLARIS8_SPARC32`
		3679	`It is identical to SOLARIS in a 'sparc' build machine, but it is only`
		3680	`available on a 'sparc' build machine. Can be used to limit builds to one`
		3681	`machine type.`
		3682
		3683	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		3684	`Version: 2.82.0000.cr Released: 18-Jan-10`

		3705
		3706	`* Solaris 10, 64 Bit Sparc Builds`
		3707	`All compiles are done in a position independent manner (-KPIC)`
		3708	`This solved issues where static libraries are linked into shared`
		3709	`libraries.`
		3710
		3711	`* Solaris builds`
		3712	`Program and Shared library dependency checking is now done before`
		3713	`the program/library objects are built. Thus errors associated with missing`
		3714	`dependencies occur before objects are built and the user can see the cause`
		3715	`of the build failure.`
		3716
		3717
		3718	`Internal changes:`
		3719	`* Moved 'jats vars' functionality into a separate program`

		3732	`existing 32-bit builds.`
		3733
		3734	`64-Bit Solaris10 builds are performed with Sun Studio 12.1`

		3781	`This simplifies the various scanning algorithms within JATS`
		3782	`Useful side effects include:`
		3783
		3784	`JATS plugins will be sourced from the interface directory if included`
		3785	`with a BuildPkgArchive. This will simplify debugging.`
		3786
		3787	`[DEVI-059682] QtBase can be consumed via a BuildPkgArchive directive,`
		3788	`simplifying the process of packaging additional fonts.`
		3789
		3790	`[DEVI-059685] Simplify implementation of --FromPackage options in other`

		3815
		3816	`Once labels have been applied a check is done to ensure that`

		3820	`* Jats core`
		3821	`Improved the auto location of the base directory of the build to allow`

		3834
309	dpurdie	3835	`The cmdfile utility creates paths with file path separators as discovered`
307	dpurdie	3836	`in the PATH EnvVar. Now that PATH is nice it means that the use of cmdfile`
309	dpurdie	3837	`to create shell scripts resulted in scripts with unsuitable separators.`
307	dpurdie	3838

289	dpurdie	4027	`Version: 2.79.0000.cr Released: 10-Jun-09`
		4028	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		4029	`Major changes:`
		4030	`* New Platform: DELPHI7`
		4031	`Support the creation of Units,Libraries, Packages and Programs using`
		4032	`Borlands Delphi Version 7.`
		4033
		4034	`See Jats Reference Manual for complete details and Delphi specific options`
		4035	`to the Prog and SharedLib directives.`
		4036
		4037	`This toolset has a number of limitations:`
		4038	`1) It can build either Debug or Production, but not both, in a single`
		4039	`makefile.pl. This is caused by the Delphi limitation that library`
		4040	`names cannot be changed.`
		4041
		4042	`2) The generation of dependencies between the source and the generated`
		4043	`artifacts is very simplistic.`
		4044
		4045	`Units are generated with the 'Lib' directive. The name of the Unit and the`
		4046	`name of the source are linked. The source should not be provided.`
		4047	`ie: Lib ('*', 'MyUnit' );`
		4048	`Will create a unit called MyUnit.dcu from the source file 'MyUnit.pas'`
		4049
		4050	`Packages are generated with the SharedLib directive starting with a .dpk`
		4051	`file.`
		4052	`ie: SharedLib ( '*', 'MyPackage' );`
		4053	`will create a package called MyPackage.bpl/dcp from the source file`
		4054	`MyPackage.dpk.`
		4055
		4056	`Libraries are generated with the SharedLib directive starting with a .dpr`
		4057	`file.`
		4058	`ie: SharedLib ( '*', 'MyDll' );`
		4059	`will create a package called MyDll.dll/lib from the source file`
		4060	`MyDll.dpr.`
		4061
		4062	`Programs are generated with the Prog directive starting with a .dpr`
		4063	`file.`
		4064	`ie: Prog ( '*', 'MyProg' );`
		4065	`will create a package called MyProg.exe from the source file`
		4066	`MyProg.dpr.`
		4067
		4068	`Minor changes:`
		4069	`* New EnvVar: DELPHI7`
		4070	`Required only if Borland Delphi 7 has not being installed in the`

		4077
		4078	`Modified the operation of the "C" style generation.`
		4079	`If the name of the file is provided via '--File', then the generated files`
		4080	`will be 'known' to JATS and can be consumed from any makefile. JATS will`
		4081	`'know' the location of the files.`
		4082
		4083	`* Sanity test on the names of libraries and programs`
		4084	`Some characters are not allowed: ie: '/' as this is a mistake.`
		4085
		4086	`Internal Changes:`
		4087	`* ToolsetSHLD functions`
		4088	`Pass in the shared library version string as an argument`
		4089	`Means that the core of JATS can manage this information in a manner`
		4090	`that is decoupled from the toolsets.`
		4091
		4092	`* Reworked the mechanism used to hold data about libraries, shared libraries`
		4093	`merged libraries and programs. Created a class to manipulate build targets`
		4094	`and to maintain information about the contents of the targets.`

287	dpurdie	4110
		4111	`Minor changes:`

277	dpurdie	4173
279	dpurdie	4174	`JATS will automatically filter out target platforms that cannot be built`
		4175	`on the users machine. ie: It will not try to build Solaris targets on a`
		4176	`Windows machine. Thus, under the new scheme a Windows GBE_BUILDFILTER need`
281	dpurdie	4177	`not contain '!SOLARIS'`
279	dpurdie	4178
		4179	`This greatly simplifies the creation of GBE_BUILDFILTER as it does not`

279	dpurdie	4196	`* Sandbox command`
		4197	`Added build, make, clean, clobber commands`
		4198
		4199	`Sandbox packages may contain a file called 'stop', to exclude the`

		4226
		4227	`Uses ANT 1.6 as the default version of ANT`
		4228
		4229	`Both changes will simplify the use of this command within the escrow`
		4230	`environment. ie: 'jats abt -buildfile=build1.xml'`

		5164	`* Jats Tool: CCbc2`
		5165	`Added utility to use BeyondCompare (BC2) to compare files in two`

		5168	`process.`
		5169
		5170	`Requires BeyondCompare to be installed in its default location.`
		5171	`Only works under Windows.`

		5178	`* Jats test runtime helper scripts set_PLATFORM.bat`

		5226	`Added a run-time test for the presence of the required toolset`
		5227	`This will report an error if the required WINCE toolset has not been`

		5231	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		5232	`If the generating tool can only be found in the users path, don't make`

		5370	`Minor changes:`
		5371	`PackageLib directive`
		5372	`The construct "PackageLib( '*', @SHLIBS, @LIBS );" now works as expected.`
		5373	`Packaging multiple libraries and shared libraries works as expected.`
		5374	`Packaging multiple shared libraries works as expected.`
		5375
		5376	`MakefileGenerate directive`
		5377	`This directive should only be called once. JATS will now generate a warning,`
		5378	`and not produce an erroneous, if the directive is invoked more than once.`
		5379
		5380	`Multiple Parent detection`
		5381	`A makefile.pl that is invoked from more than one other makefile.pl, or the`
		5382	`build.pl, is counted as having multiple parents. This condition is`
		5383	`normally treated as an error. When run by the Auto Built Tool, this`
		5384	`condition will be treated as a warning.`
		5385
		5386	`Solaris Toolset`
		5387	`Added option '--WithMisalign' to the SharedLib directive.`
		5388	`When used in conjunction with the 'misalign' CompleOption this option will`
		5389	`cause a machine specific object file (misalign.o) to be included in the`
		5390	`link.`
		5391
		5392	`Programs that are created with 'misalign' will automatically include the`
		5393	`misalign.o object file. The fact that shared libraries do not may be an`
		5394	`indication that this is a bad thing to do.`
		5395
		5396	`Make and generation of subdirectories`
		5397	`Fixed an issue which caused created directories to have a bad timestamp.`
		5398	`This could result in multiple attempts to generate the source dependency`

		5401	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5402	`Version: 2.71.0.cr Released: 10-Oct-07`
		5403	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5404	`Major changes:`
		5405	`Makefile generation and make recursion`
		5406	`Extensive changes to the makefiles that are generated by JATS and method by`
		5407	`which JATS recuses through subdirectories during a build.`
		5408
		5409	`Summary of changes:`
		5410	`- Removed the use of 'make' to perform recursion over subdirectories`
		5411	`and platforms. This has been replaced by a JATS program that performs`
		5412	`the same task - only a great deal faster and with a greater scope for`
		5413	`flexibility.`
		5414
		5415	`The user interface remains identical: jats make ....`
		5416
		5417	`- Replaced the generated 'Makefile' with 'Makefile.gbe'. This is a text`
		5418	`file that provides sufficient information to allow JATS to locate the`
		5419	`interface directory and associated build information.`
		5420
		5421	`- Significant speed up in determining the need to rebuild a makefile.`
		5422	`On a large package this has been reduced from 30+ seconds to less`
		5423	`than one second.`
		5424
		5425	`- Significant speed up of large recursive builds through intelligent`
		5426	`building of the 'make_init' target. This is only processed once for`
		5427	`each platform type. Previously it was processed in each and every`
		5428	`makefile. This make target is used, internally, to perform sanity`
		5429	`testing of the compiler environment and to display the name of the`
		5430	`toolset. It is an expensive operation.`
		5431
		5432	`- Intelligent speed up of large recursive through better mechanism`
		5433	`for creating required directories. These are now created on the fly,`
		5434	`rather than via a slow recursive pass though all makefiles.`
		5435
		5436	`- Better makefile rebuilding`
		5437	`Makefiles can be rebuilt on the fly. The previous system was prone to`
		5438	`detecting that makefiles needs to be re-built, but then not re-`
		5439	`building them.`
		5440
		5441	`- Detection of build file changes`
		5442	`The make process will detect that the build file has been modified`
		5443	`and that the component has not been rebuilt. This is a warning. It`
		5444	`does not prevent the 'make' operation.`
		5445
		5446	`- Quieter make output`
		5447	`The 'Nothing to be done' message has been disabled.`
		5448
		5449
		5450	`Minor changes:`
		5451	`MakeAnt Directive`
		5452	`Allows ANT_HOME to be a path with spaces. ie: c:\Program Files\apache-ant-1.6.5`
		5453
		5454	`JATS command "debug" and "prod"`
		5455	`These now handle make arguments and options correctly. Thus the command:`
		5456	`jats prod WIN32 OPTIONS=args`
		5457	`Will correctly do a production build for WIN32 with command execution`
		5458	`display. Before, the system would attempt to process prod_OPTIONS=args.`
		5459
		5460	`CSHARP toolset`
		5461	`Correctly detect missing compiler directories`

		5553	`Major changes:`
		5554
		5555	`Minor changes:`
		5556	`* Reverted changes made in JATS_2.68.1 to the library search path`
		5557	`Although the search order is broken, we will need to live with it.`
		5558
		5559	`Addressed the search order of /usr/lib under Solaris by adding a new`
		5560	`AddLibDir option (--System) to add system paths. These will be searched`
		5561	`last.`
		5562
		5563	`For the record, the search order for header files and libraries is:`

		5588	`Major changes:`
		5589
		5590	`Minor changes:`

		5601	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5602	`Version: JATS_2.68.0 Released: 20-Aug-07`
		5603	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5604	`Major changes:`
		5605	`* Trap use of uncontrolled versions of 'ant' and the Java Compiler (javac)`
		5606
		5607	`It was discovered that a few old makefile.pl's where invoking ant and`
		5608	`javac directly in order to build small Java components. This was`
		5609	`normally being done in the guise of the WIN32 target. These packages`
		5610	`were making assumptions about the version of Java on the users search`
		5611	`path.`
		5612
		5613	`JATS can invoke ANT and build Java based components using the MakeAnt`
		5614	`directive and the JAVA platform. This method is controlled and`
		5615	`reproducible.`
		5616
		5617	`This release provides changes such that these packages will not build.`
		5618	`This is better than building incorrectly.`
		5619
		5620	`There are several aspects to the change`
		5621	`1) JATS provides binaries (ant and javac) with an error message. If`
		5622	`the user invoked ant/javac in a manner that involves searching the`
		5623	`PATH then these will be used and report an error.`
		5624
		5625	`2) A special command (jats abt) can be used to start up the Auto Build`
		5626	`Tool in a manner that does not alter the PATH seen by the utilities.`
		5627	`Moreover it does not alter the JAVA_HOME seen by the build. This is`
		5628	`controlled separately.`
		5629
		5630	`Minor changes:`
		5631	`* Sanitize the PATH environment variable`
		5632	`Ensure the JATS bin directory is the first directory searched`
		5633	`Remove duplicates`
		5634	`Place non-existent components at the end of the PATH`
		5635
		5636	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5637	`Version: JATS_2.67.1 Released: 17-Aug-07`
		5638	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5639	`Major changes:`
		5640
		5641	`Minor changes:`
		5642	`* Makefile sanity test`
		5643	`Added a test to ensure that makefiles created on a machine of one type are`
		5644	`not then run on a machine of a different type.`
		5645
		5646	`This will prevent files created on solaris-sparc being used on a solaris-`
		5647	`x86 machine.`
		5648
		5649	`* Correct bug in RunTest`
		5650	`RunTest now extends the PATH to include the local bin directory`
		5651
		5652	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5653	`Version: JATS_2.67.0 Released: 13-Aug-07`
		5654	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5655	`Major changes:`
		5656	`* RunTest directive`
		5657	`Added support for running tests within the NUNIT test framework for the`
		5658	`CSHARP target. In the process a generalized mechanism for accessing`
		5659	`toolset specific test frameworks has been added.`
		5660
		5661	`Changes to the directive to support a FrameWork.`
		5662	`The use of a test FrameWork is signaled with the option`
		5663	`--FrameWork=<name> If this is present then the raw name of the program`
		5664	`under test will be passed to the framework. program.`
		5665
		5666	`If a FrameWork is in use, then JATS will invoke the specified framework`
		5667	`builder within the current toolset.`
		5668
		5669	`When a framework is in place JATS will pass arguments of the form:`
		5670	`'--Tag=Text' to the FrameWork. Other options are processed as normal.`
		5671
		5672	`With in the Nunit FrameWork the program under test will be a DLL Nunit`
		5673	`will only operate on a DLL. The DLL must have been created by the makefile`
		5674	`containing the RunTest directive.`
		5675
		5676	`The Nunit Framework supports the following options:`
		5677	`--Uses=<Name>[,SubOption]+`
		5678
		5679	`This option specifies other DLLs that are used by the TestDLL. They will`
		5680	`be copied in to the test directory, and may be sourced from an external`
		5681	`package or the components 'local' lib directory.`
		5682
		5683	`SubOptions available to The --Uses directive are:`
		5684	`--NonJats This is not a JATS built library. It will not have a`
		5685	`P or D suffix.`
		5686	`--Jats (Default) This is a JATS built library. JATS will`
		5687	`select the correct library type for this build.`
		5688
		5689	`Minor changes:`
		5690	`* New Cache cleanup mechanism`
		5691	`When a package is consumed from the 'cache' a flag is updated within`
		5692	`the cache. The cache aging routines use this file in preference to`
		5693	`the descpkg file, thus it will prevent the aging of packages that are`
		5694	`frequently used. The aging policy can be made more aggressive.`
		5695
		5696	`* Save Build Utility`
		5697	`This utility is used by the Auto Build System to save the 'build.pl' file`
		5698	`used in a ripple build.`
		5699
		5700	`The utility has been enhanced to detect a reserved checkout of the`
		5701	`build.pl. The checkout will be changed to unreserved - if possible.`
		5702
		5703	`* Release Utility`
		5704	`The 'jats release' command will now unlock any labels that it locked`
		5705	`when an error is encountered.`
		5706
		5707	`This simplifies the 'release' process as the developers label will be`
		5708	`unlocked if a build error occurs.`
		5709
		5710	`* Jats caching local copy of itself`
		5711	`Fixed a bug which resulted in an "Use of individualized value" message`
		5712	`being displayed a large number of times during the file transfer process.`
		5713
		5714	`* Minor extension to allow plug-in directives to perform a processing step`
		5715	`before the makefiles are created.`
		5716
		5717	`* TestProg directive`
		5718	`TestProg's are now built in exactly the same manner as Progs`
		5719
		5720	`* Correct problem introduced in 2.66.1 with packaging of files with`
		5721	`a 'space' or '$' in the file name.`
		5722

		5725	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5726	`Major changes:`
		5727	`* New build target`

		5730
		5731	`These targets have also been added to the following pseudo targets.`
		5732	`DEVLINUX`
		5733	`LMOS_DEVLINUX`
		5734
		5735	`* Internal utility dpkg_cache [Windows]`

		5737	`transfer, after having problems the 'cp.exe' provided by JATS.`
		5738
		5739	`Minor changes:`
		5740	`* Added utility class to provide directory searching`
		5741	`To be used in JATS and JATS support tools`

		5744	`Correct problem with filename that start with "n" as in .\not_nice.cs`
		5745
		5746	`Create resource files with Fully Qualified Names derived from the .resx`
		5747	`and .cs files.`
		5748
		5749	`Handle Strong Key Names and creates wrappers to provide do the right`
		5750	`thing.`
		5751
		5752	`* Microtec ColdFire compiler`
		5753	`Further attempts to get the compiler to place all of its temp files in a`
		5754	`local directory. The compiler uses a large number of EnVars to control`
		5755	`were it places temp files.`
		5756
		5757	`Underlying problem is random compiler failures on big builds. Suspected`
		5758	`interaction with other builds.`
		5759
		5760	`* Release utility command`
		5761	`Added a -tag=name option to allow the Auto Build Tools to create`
		5762	`multiple instances of a static view. The tag is used to provide a unique`
		5763	`component in the clearcase tag name.`

		5831	`than to use symlinks. This simplifies remote builds.`
		5832
		5833	`* Tool: gen_msprojects`
		5834	`Has been extended to create either a Debug build (default), or a Production`
		5835	`build.`
		5836
		5837	`Eg: jats etool gen_msprojects -prod`

		5849	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5850	`Version: JATS_2.65.1 Released: 30-May-07`
		5851	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5852	`Major changes:`
		5853	`* Provided a mechanism by which JATS makefile.pl directives can be extended`
		5854	`through modules provided by external packages. This will be used to reduce`
		5855	`the dependancy on JATS of various packaging processes.`
		5856
		5857	`* GenerateFiles`
		5858	`Added the options:`
		5859	`--UnknownPreq - Will force the recipe to be run every time`
		5860	`the generated files are required. May be used`
		5861	`when the dependancies are too complex to`
		5862	`describe. ie: Entire directory tree.`
		5863
		5864	`--AutoGenerate - Will not force the recipe to be run during the`
		5865	`'generate' phase, unless the recipe generates`
		5866	`source files. Allows recipes to be run very`
		5867	`late. ie: when the dependent files are actually`
		5868	`required.`
		5869
		5870
		5871	`Minor changes:`
		5872	`* GenerateFile directive`
		5873	`Added --Var(BuildRoot)`
		5874
		5875	`* GCC Toolset`
		5876	`Creating Shared Libaries with a 'Def' file. The library is now dependent`
		5877	`on the Def file, such that changes to the Def file will cause the library to`
		5878	`be rebuilt.`
		5879
		5880	`* MakeAnt and MakeProject directives`
		5881	`Preserve the order in which projects are built.`
		5882

		5886	`Major changes:`
		5887	`* Access to Release Manager and Deployment Manager databases`
		5888	`The database location, user and password have been made configurable via`
		5889	`environment variables.`
		5890
		5891	`Reason: The Release Manager and Deployment Manager databases are being`
		5892	`moved.`
		5893
		5894	`This will affect users that:`
		5895	`1) Use tools that access RM or DM`
		5896	`Some tools that build deployable packages`
		5897
		5898	`2) Use the ABT system`
		5899	`The buildadm user, and the ABT scripts will be modified to provide`
		5900	`the required configuration`
		5901
		5902	`If you need to use tools that access RM or DM, outside of the ABT scripts on`
		5903	`the build machine then you will need to add the following environment`
		5904	`definitions to your .profile_bash, or jats.bat.`

		5936	`The TP5600* targets should be removed to make it obvious that these packages`
		5937	`need to be converted.`
		5938
		5939	`* Building Linux Device Drivers`
		5940	`The hard-coded path to the Kernel Headers has been removed.`
		5941	`Linux Drivers must be built with a suitable package to provide`

		6002
		6003	`LMOS_TP5600 is a tag that will be expanded to the entire family of LMOS_TP5600`

		6006
		6007	`LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI and LMOS_TP5600_EMU`
		6008	`These are LMOS based targets. The 'lmos' package must be used in order to`

		6010
		6011	`The LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI can use components from the TP5600_ARM9TDMI,`

		6018	`This is a tag that will be expanded to all the known WINCE targets.`
		6019	`Use of this platform will simplify the creation of components for`
		6020	`consumption on all WINCE machines.`
		6021
		6022	`The current list of WINCE targets is:`

		6034	`The WINCE targets actually built will be affected by GBE_BUILDFILTER.`
		6035
		6036	`* JATS makefile.pl`
		6037	`The package descriptor file, 'descpkg', will be packaged in all makefiles`

		6039
		6040	`There is now no need to explicitly package the 'descpkg' file, except in`

		6042
		6043	`Minor changes:`
		6044	`* Directive: PackageFile`
		6045	`Generate a warning if the source file name does not confirm to good naming`

		6048
		6049	`Normally the result of an error in the directive. ie: "-Subdir=etc", instead`

		6051
		6052	`* JATS Internal utility: cmdfile`
		6053	`Updated Linux and Solaris targets with a version of the cmdfile that`
		6054	`provides a better error message for libraries that cannot be found.`
		6055
		6056	`This version will display the library search path with one item per line,`

		6060	`Version: JATS_2.63.0 Released: 5-Apr-07`
		6061	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6062	`Major changes:`
		6063
		6064	`* JATS release command`
		6065	`Modified the configuration spec generated when a branching rule is`
		6066	`specified. The change will ensure that directories are not branched.`
		6067
		6068	`Rules are:`
		6069	`Modify a file: File will branch`
		6070	`Adding a file: Containing directory will not branch`
		6071	`File will be placed on a branch`
		6072	`Add a directory: Containing directory will not branch`
		6073	`New directory will branch`
		6074
		6075	`Minor changes:`
		6076	`* JATS release command`
		6077	`Added -noprefex option to allow the creation of a view directory without the`
		6078	`user name being prefixed to it. This is useful in creating an escrow view.`
		6079
		6080	`* JATS label command`
		6081	`Detect and report parent directories that are checkedout when a label`
		6082	`is applied. Previously these had gone unreported.`
		6083
		6084	`* JATS make`
		6085	`Undo previous change to preserve symbolic links while Packaging and`
		6086	`Installing files. A problem was encountered when a file from a package`
		6087	`was re-packaged.`
		6088
		6089	`* JATS escrow`
		6090	`Added a tool to generate information for creating an escrow drop.`
		6091	`Use jats escrow -help for details`
		6092
		6093	`* makefile.pl directive: MakeAnt`
		6094	`This directive will create parameters to specify the location of external java`
		6095	`packages that have been referenced via a LinkPkgArchive directive.`
		6096
		6097	`This allows the build.xml to contruct a CLASSPATH to access JAR files in`
		6098	`packages, without the overhead of copying the entire package into the`
		6099	`interface directory.`
		6100
		6101	`* build.pl directive: BuildPkgArchive`
		6102	`Modified the processing of 'jar' directories.`
		6103	`Directories of the form 'jar.<target>' will be transferred into the 'jar'`
		6104	`directory as seen by the package.`
		6105
		6106	`Intended use: Deployment of oraclient for Solaris 10`
		6107
		6108	`* JAVA 6`
		6109	`JATS now supports all versions of Java through the use of JAVA_HOME_X_Y`
		6110	`environment variables. Where X andY specify the version of JAVA.`
		6111
		6112	`The jats.bat and jats.sh example files only provide indication of 1.4, 1.5`
		6113	`and 1.6 support, but all versions are now supported.`
		6114
		6115	`The "jats vars -v" command will display all JAVA_HOME environment variables`
		6116
		6117	`* Jats command: vars`
		6118	`Extended to show a "*" for EnvVars that do not address a valid directory`
		6119	`These indicate potential problems.`

		6121	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6122	`Version: JATS_2.62.4 Released: 20-Mar-07`
		6123	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6124	`Major changes:`
		6125	`* JATS create_dpkg + packageing shared libraries (Unix)`
		6126	`When a shared library is created a simple symbolic link to the versioned`
		6127	`libarry is also created.`
		6128
		6129	`Previous versions of JATS would replace the symbolic link with a physical`
		6130	`copy of the file. The effect of this is that when the shared libaries is`
		6131	`'Installed', 'Packaged' and transferred into dpkg_archive there are two`
		6132	`files, instead of one file and one link to the file (in the same directory)`
		6133	`The Solaris shared libraries can be quite large, due to the debug`
		6134	`information contained within the file.`
		6135
		6136	`This version of JATS will preserve symbolic links when 'Installing',`
		6137	`'Packaging' and transferring to dpkg_archive.`
		6138
		6139	`The advantage of this will be significant reduction in disk space used`
		6140	`within the build environment and dpkg_archive.`
		6141
		6142	`* Building Perl Modules`
		6143	`Modified the process to prevent the module builder attempting to modify the`
		6144	`documentation on the build machine.`
		6145
		6146	`Integrated the 'jats clean' operation.`
		6147
		6148	`Minor changes:`
		6149	`* jats create_dpkg`
		6150	`Added an option to create a built.generic file`
		6151	`This is only used by the Automated Built Tools.`
		6152
		6153	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6154	`Version: JATS_2.62.3 Released: 28-Feb-07`
		6155	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6156	`Major changes:`
		6157	`* JATS JAVA build target`
		6158	`The default behaviour of the JAVA build target has changed such that the`
		6159	`default version of JAVA used will be 1.4.`
		6160
		6161	`Previous behaviour was to use whichever version was specified by the EnvVar`
		6162	`JAVA_HOME. This was not controlled, thus the build was not controlled.`
		6163	`Problems occur when using the new AutoBuildTool as it uses Java 1.5 and this`
		6164	`is then picked up as the default version.`
		6165
		6166	`If a version, other than 1.4, is required then specify it within the`
		6167	`build.pl file.`
		6168
		6169	`Minor changes:`
		6170	`* jats release`
		6171	`Ensure that the 'cleartool' command can be found in the users PATH`
		6172	`Issue an error if it cannot be found.`
		6173	`This error indicates bad DevEnv setup`
		6174
		6175	`Added facility to create a view based on a config_spec, instead of a label.`
		6176	`Such a view cannot be used to create a release. It is intended to simplify`
		6177	`the creation of simple static views. The name of view is, by default,`
		6178	`based on the name of the config spec. Use the -view=name option to change`
		6179	`the name of the view.`
		6180
		6181	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		6182	`Added new --Vars() to allow packaging of JATS plugin tools.`
		6183
		6184	`* MOS Toolset`
		6185	`When using MOS fast intermodule calls the optimizer will preload commonly`
		6186	`used memory addresses into a register BEFORE the GDP has been correctly set`
		6187	`up. Use the following option to suppress this optimization`
		6188
		6189	`Added: CompileOptions ('*', 'NoGlobalOptimization' );`

		6195	`Major changes:`
		6196
		6197	`Minor changes:`
		6198	`* JATS environment`
		6199	`Ensure that the true path of the Perl executable is present in the PATH`
		6200	`environment variable. This allows build tool access to various perl utilities`
		6201	`that are located in the Perl bin directory.`
		6202
		6203	`Resolves issues in locating utilities such as pod2html`
		6204
		6205	`* Use of GENERIC platforms`
		6206	`Report an error if a GENERIC platform is mixed with any other platform`
		6207	`specifier. GENERIC is used for packages that build on all machines because`
		6208	`they do not use a compiler or linker. They simply contains files that need`
		6209	`to be packaged.`
		6210
		6211	`* Generated makefiles`
		6212	`Solaris and Linux: Ensure that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is exported if it is used.`
		6213
		6214	`* Generating MOS THX files`
		6215	`Added option --BinaryImage to the SharedLib directive used to create MOS THX`
		6216	`files. This option will create a binary image (.bin) instead of a .thx file.`
		6217	`This is being used in the creation of BR Applets.`
		6218
		6219	`SharedLib ( 'MOS', "xxx", @OBJS, "--Rel=xxx.rel", "--BinaryImage" );`
		6220
		6221	`* JATS release`
		6222	`Correct the operation of the -path option under Unix`

		6225	`New JATS command. This is the same as 'jats release -extract'`
		6226
		6227	`* JATS Toolset`
		6228	`Added support for the WinCe PSION (WCEPSION_420)`
		6229	`This is a armv4i device using 4.20 of the WCE SDK`

		6235	`Major changes:`
		6236
		6237	`Minor changes:`
		6238	`* jats label`
		6239	`Added a -vob=name option`
		6240	`This allwos the label utility to create, lock, unlock, rename and delete`
		6241	`labels without the user actually being located within the VOB. This option`
		6242	`cannot be used in conjunction with operations that place labels on files.`
		6243	`It can only be used for operations that manipulate the label.`
		6244
		6245	`Added a -user=name option`
		6246	`This extends the operation of the -mine operation to change ownership of the`
		6247	`label to the named user.`
		6248
		6249	`* jats release`
		6250	`Displays the path to the view and the build file in a user friendly manner`
		6251	`Under Windows it uses \, unless running under cygwin.`
		6252
		6253	`* JATS build.pl`
		6254	`BuildProduct supports the --Uses=xxxx construct on a per-target basis.`
		6255	`ie:`
		6256	`BuildProduct ('TP5', 'LMOS_TP5600_EMU', 'LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI,--Uses=TP5600_ARM9TDMI');`

		6262	`Major changes:`
		6263	`* GenerateFiles and RunTest directives`
		6264	`These directives have been extended to allow a large number of makefile`
		6265	`values to be added to the command lines,without resorting to knowledge of`
		6266	`the makefile internals. ie:`
		6267	`--Var(BuildName)`
		6268	`will be expanded to (hen building MyPackage)`
		6269	`-BuildName=MyPackage`
		6270
		6271	`The complete list of Variables is provided in the JATS manual.`
		6272
		6273	`* GenerateFiles`
		6274	`Added a --Clean option to allow tools to be invoked in the 'clean' phase`

		6278	`Restored operation of the --Uses option`
		6279
		6280	`Minor changes:`
		6281	`* GCC Toolset`
		6282	`Exports path to compiler. Used by scripts to build packages`
		6283
		6284	`Internal changes:`
		6285	`* GenerateFiles`
		6286	`Maintains the arguments in an array for simpler processing.`
		6287
		6288	`--Shell is now processed by the 'make' shell rather then invoking an`
		6289	`external shell. It will be the same shell, just easier to setup.`

		6291
		6292	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6293	`Version: JATS_2.61.3 Released: 14-Dec-06`
		6294	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6295	`Major changes:`
		6296	`* Caching JATS`
		6297	`Added a mechanism whereby JATS can cache a copy of itself on the users local`
		6298	`drive. This is applicable to windows.`
		6299
		6300	`This mechanism will allow a user to address JATS via the soft-links in`
		6301	`dpkg_archive and pick up the current version of JATS without the penalty of`
		6302	`then using JATS across a slow(network) link.`
		6303
		6304	`The EnvVar GBE_CACHE_JATS controls the operation of this feature.`
		6305	`Set GBE_CACHE_JATS to one to enable the operation, but it will only be`
		6306	`effective if JATS is being run from GBE_DPKG in the first place.`
		6307
		6308	`Use: Build Machines and Windows Users`
		6309
		6310	`Minor changes:`
		6311	`* Build directive: BuildAlias with --Target option`
		6312	`Corrected a problem when the target name is a expanded platform name (ie:`
		6313	`TP5600) that prevent correct expansion.`
		6314
		6315	`* jats build`
		6316	`If the user has not configured a cache, then do not attempt to cache`
		6317	`packages. This will remove an annoying warning message for each package`
		6318	`processed by the build.`
		6319
		6320	`* jats build`
		6321	`Modified the error messages generated when JATS fails to create the`
		6322	`makefiles. The previous system would report failures while creating`
		6323	`makefiles and, at the end of the process, it would generate a large error`
		6324	`message to indicate the failure. This large message diverted the users`
		6325	`from reading the other error messages resulting in confusion.`
		6326
		6327	`* PackageFile, PackageLib, PackageProg and PackageHdr`
		6328	`Detect and report as an error use of the --Dir=<Path> option where the`
		6329	`Path is not specified.`
		6330
		6331	`Most instances of this error will be where the option has been mis-used in`
		6332	`conjunction with a package.pl file, or during transition from using a`
		6333	`package.pl file. That change is detects errors where the user has specified`
		6334	`--Dir=$Pinc`
		6335	`but $Pinc is not defined.`
		6336
		6337	`* Purify and Purecov under Windows`
		6338	`Changes to correct the operation of Rational's tools when used on the`
		6339	`Windows platform.`
		6340
		6341	`- OPTIONS=purecov`
		6342	`Forces the link operations to generate the relocation table required`
		6343	`by 'purecov.`
		6344
		6345	`Does not attempt to use purecov in the compiler tool chain`
		6346	`This is required under Solaris, but not Windows`
		6347
		6348	`- OPTIONS=purify`
		6349	`Does not attempt to use purecov in the compiler tool chain`
		6350	`This is required under Solaris, but not Windows.`
		6351	`Under WIndows this option does nothing.`

		6355	`Version: JATS_2.61.2 Released: 27-Nov-06`
		6356	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6357	`Major changes:`
		6358	`* makefile.pl directive Platform`
		6359	`This directive has been expanded to allow for the negation operation`
		6360	`Example:`
		6361	`Platform ('!MOSCF');`
		6362	`Process makefile for all targets other than MOSCF`
		6363	`This is the same as Platform ('*', '!MOSCF');`
		6364
		6365	`Excluded platform will be processed after included platforms have`
		6366	`been determined.`
		6367
		6368	`Minor changes:`
		6369	`* Added the ScanList directive.`
		6370	`This directive allows a list of files within an external package to be`
		6371	`located at build-time.`
		6372
		6373	`* Unix based systems`
		6374	`If the EnvVar LD_LIBRARY_PATH was undefined, then a warning would be`
		6375	`generated by make under some conditions. The warning has been removed.`
		6376
		6377	`* MakeLinuxDriver`
		6378	`Added a --Define=text option to allow "defines" to be passed to the`
		6379	`driver being built.`

		6409	`Added directive: MakeLinuxDriver to build and Linux Device Driver.`
		6410
		6411	`GenerateFiles.`
		6412	`Added option: --NoGenerate to indicate that the directive does`

		6420
		6421	`* GCC Toolset (Used to build Linux)`
		6422	`Added options to allow the generation of statically linked programs.`
		6423	`There are two mechanism:`
		6424
		6425	`Globally within the makefile.pl, or if applied in the common makefile.pl`
		6426	`the option can apply to all programs being built.`
		6427
		6428	`CompileOptions ( 'platform', 'StaticProgs' ); - Generate static programs`
		6429	`CompileOptions ( 'platform', 'No_StaticProgs' ); - Default`

		6439	`Major changes:`
		6440	`* SunWorks Toolset`
		6441	`Better determination of the location of the SunWorks compiler and library`
		6442	`Does not use an environment variable to locate compiler libraries`
		6443	`It is based on machine type.`

		6460	`Altered the mechanism used to determine cross compilation`
		6461	`Extended the cross compilers that can be handled by the toolset`
		6462	Removed the use of `uname`.
		6463
		6464	`* Added platforms`
		6465	`TP5600 ( Expands to TP5600_ARM9TDMI and TP5600_EMU )`
		6466	`TP5600_ARM9TDMI`
		6467	`TP5600_EMU`

		6481	`similar, but more pronounced, issue.`
		6482
		6483	`* Atmel toolset (DEVI-031788)`
		6484	`New Products: AT90SC7272C and AT90SC3232CS`
		6485	`The AT90SC3232CS is identical to the existing AT3232`

		6551	`Theses are:`
		6552	`SOLARIS_SPARC`
		6553	`SOLARIS_AMD`

		6583	`Major changes:`
		6584
		6585	`Minor changes:`
		6586	`* WIN32 and WINCE toolsets`
		6587	`SharedLib operation. Added an option to allow the creation of a 'stub'`

		6624	`Initial release.`
		6625
		6626	`* Packaging directives`
		6627	`Added option --OsCommon to allow files and header files to be packed into`
		6628	`a directory known to all platforms being built for a common OS.`
		6629
		6630	`Currently this is only supported to target platforms based on`
		6631	`SOLARIS`
		6632	`WIN32`
		6633
		6634	`* Removal of support for badly formed packages`
		6635	`As of this release libraries that exist in the <packagename>/lib directory`
		6636	`will not be available to JATS. These libraries are in the incorrect`
		6637	`directory. They MUST be in a directory that indicates the intended purpose`
		6638	`of the library. A .so library cannot be used on all machines ( linux,`
		6639	`solaris-sparc, solaris-amd ... ).`
		6640
		6641	`* Build Platform target name expansion facility`
		6642	`The build targets of SOLARIS and LINUX are seen as expandable names. They`
		6643	`will be expanded to suitable targets - depending on the host machine .`
		6644
		6645
		6646	`Minor changes:`
		6647	`* Utility: JATS LABEL`

		6650
		6651	`* Utility: JATS RELEASE`
		6652	`Added a -root=dirname to allow the user to place the created view at a given`
		6653	`location`
		6654
		6655	`Added GBE_VIEWBASE to provide a globally configured mechanism for`
		6656	`controlling the view location. Performs the same job as -root=xxxx`
		6657
		6658	`* Utility genrc`
		6659	`Added the company name to the copyright string`
		6660
		6661	`* Utility: jats_save_build`
		6662	`Added option: -new`
		6663	`This option forces the saved file only a new branch.`
		6664	`The option can be used to save a build.pl file onto a new project-specific`
		6665	`branch. Useful when branching an entire release.`
		6666
		6667	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6668	`Added options to allow project suffixes to be replaced.`
		6669	`Use: Convert a .syd project to a .bej project.`
		6670
		6671	`* Deprecated features: package.pl and tree.dir`
		6672	`These two build features are being deprecated. They are not suitable for`
		6673	`migration to other SOLARIS based platforms.`
		6674
		6675	`The Package directives provide sufficient power to replace the package.pl`
		6676	`features - in a uniform manner.`
		6677
		6678
		6679	`Internal Changes:`
		6680	`* Major rework of the JATS BuildPlatform, BuildAlias an BuildProducts`
		6681	`directives, together with the mechanism used to describe the platform builds.`
		6682
		6683	`Introduced a CFG/<PLATFORM>.CFG file to provide:`
		6684	`1) Platform information available at build time`
		6685	`2) Dynamic platform names`
		6686
		6687	`* Major rework of the 'SOLARIS' platform`
		6688	`The SOLARIS platform will generate one or more targets, depending on the`
		6689	`machine on which the platform is invoked.`
		6690
		6691	`Consolidated a number of SOLARIS specific kludges and converted them into`
		6692	`configurable items. These kludges are really on applicable to the`
		6693	`SOLARIS8_SPARC32 platform. New SOLARIS builds will be well formed.`
		6694
		6695	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6696	`Formalized a number of kludges in operation of the SOLARIS8 under sparc32`
		6697	`platform. These are configured early in the build process and are no longer`
		6698	`needed.`
		6699
		6700	`A side effect of this work is that files from external packages may be`
		6701	`located in 'SOLARIS', 'SOLARIS_sparc' or 'sparc' directories. The change`
		6702	`should be transparent as the consumer tools should be able to handle`
		6703	`files from all of these.`

		6715	`Version: JATS_2.55.0 Released: 3-Aug-06`
		6716	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6717	`Major changes:`
		6718	`* Jats wrapper: Specify version of JATS to be used`
		6719	`Added a -version=xxxx option to force JATS to use a specific version of`
		6720	`JATS. The same operation can be achieved by setting GBE_JATS_VERSION.`
		6721
		6722	`The required version MUST be found in one of the known archives.`
		6723
		6724	`JATS will attempt to cache the version of JATS to assist in speeding up`
		6725	`the operations.`
		6726
		6727	`The version option MUST be the first option.`
		6728
		6729	`The version option MUST be followed by a '--' option.`
		6730	`This prevents JATS parsing other options and recursion issues.`
		6731
		6732	`Example: jats -version=2.54.3.cr -- build`
		6733
		6734	`* Migrated the "jats install" functionality out of the jats wrapper script`
		6735	`and into the create_dpkg utility. This is transparent to the user.`
		6736
		6737	`* Utility: create_dpkg`
		6738	`Added a '-quiet' option to allow use within scripts`
		6739	`Extended the built-in help`
		6740	`Added useful error messages`
		6741	`Migrate code to a common error reporting mechanism`
		6742
		6743	`* WinCE toolset`
		6744	`Added support for the WCEPA962 target.`
		6745
		6746	`* M16 toolset as used in building MCRFirmware`
		6747	`Added a --MotOnly option to the Prog directives. MOT files`
		6748	`are used in the creation of bootstraps.`
		6749
		6750	`Minor changes:`
		6751	`* JATS wrapper script`
		6752	`Added a -ABT=xxx option to allow the Auto Build Tool to be invoked from`
		6753	`the command line.`
		6754
		6755	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6756	`Modified so that it will display changes. These will then be present in the`
		6757	`ABT log so that a developer can see which packages have been rippled.`
		6758
		6759	`Internal Changes:`
		6760	`* Common Error Reporting`
		6761	`Will use environment variables to control DEBUG and VERBOSE levels`
		6762	`for individual users. A module reporting with a name of XXXX will use EnvVars`
		6763	`of GBE_XXXX_VERBOSE and GBE_XXXX_DEBUG to control the debug and VERBOSE`
		6764	`level.`
		6765
		6766	`Force flushing after a "Question" is asked to ensure that the prompt is`
		6767	`displayed.`

		6784	`Added AT7272 support`
		6785
		6786	`* Tool: jats_manifest`

		6803	`Major changes:`
		6804
		6805	`Minor changes:`
		6806	`* Mictotec toolset`
		6807	`Assembler files. Define DEBUG in debug builds and NDEBUG in production`
		6808	`builds.`
		6809
		6810	`* JATS Core`
		6811	`Added GBE_ABT. This is used by the Auto Build Tool to indicate that an`
		6812	`auto build is in progress. It may be used by various tools to modify their`
		6813	`behaviour.`
		6814
		6815	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6816	`Version: JATS_2.54.0 Released: 22-Jun-06`
		6817	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6818	`Major changes:`
		6819	`* Removal of non-core deployment functionality from JATS.`
		6820	`Deployment package will be affected.`
		6821
		6822	`The build.pl file of deployment package will need to import deployment`
		6823	`support with a BuildPkgArchive directive. ie:`
		6824
		6825	`BuildPkgArchive ( 'deployfiles', '1.0.0.cr' );`
		6826
		6827	`This version of deployfiles contains the same functionality as that provided`
		6828	`by the previous version of JATS. Version 2 of this package will be the start`
		6829	`of a deployment system that will provide support for building InstallShield`
		6830	`packages.`
		6831
		6832	`* Deployment support utilities must be run under JATS`
		6833	`The environment required for the deployment support utilities is complex`
		6834	`and is provided by the JATS wrapper script.`
		6835
		6836	`This is a change in usage. Instead of running the program 'updatenodespec'`
		6837	`the user will need to run 'jats updatenodespec'`
		6838
		6839	`Minor changes:`
		6840	`* SubDir directive`
		6841	`Added a sanity test to detect the case when a 'SubDir' directive specifies`
		6842	`a directory from two different makefiles.`
		6843
		6844	`* Tools: Dependancy generator mkdepend`
		6845	`If an include file was referenced by a symbolic name, then the generated`
		6846	`dependancy information would be wrong for all but the first occurrence`
		6847	`of the file usage.`
		6848
		6849	`* New utility: jats_manifest`
		6850	`Used by the build system to generate and validate source files.`
		6851	`Beta Release: Windows only at the moment`
		6852
		6853	`* Unit tests under SOLARIS_sparc`
		6854	`The LD_LIBRARY_PATH has been modified to correctly pick up libraries`
		6855	`generated within the build and have been installed locally.`
		6856
		6857	`* Default behaviour of JATS the wrapper script`
		6858	`This has been changed. Previous unknown commands were passed to make.`
		6859	`In this release unknown comamnds will be treated a 'etool' commands and`
		6860	`will execute a JATS extended command.`
		6861
		6862
		6863	`Internal Changes:`
		6864	`* Code refactor`
		6865	`Created JatsEnv to encapsulate functionality that was multiply defined.`
		6866
		6867	`* Deployment utilities`
		6868	`The Perl module Ignorelist.pm and the .ccignore file`
		6869	`Changed the mechanism by which this module locates a .ccignore file.`
		6870	`The .ccignore file has been moved to the same directory as the module and`
		6871	`the module can locate the file.`
		6872
		6873	`Previously the module required an environment variable in order to locate`
		6874	`the file, which was in a fixed location anyway.`
		6875
		6876	`* JATS core`
		6877	`Removed the use of the environment variable PERLINC.`
		6878
		6879	`Better parsing of descpkg files.`
		6880
		6881	`* JATS core debugging: JatsError.pm`
		6882	`Allow control over the debug and verbose messages of specific programs`
		6883	`through the use of environment variables.`
		6884
		6885	`A program reporting errors as "name" can be controlled via environment`
		6886	`variables GBE_name_VERBOSE and GBE_name_DEBUG.`
		6887
		6888	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6889	`Modified the subdirectories transferred with this directive to include:`
		6890	`deployfiles - as used by the deployment system`
		6891	`tools/scripts - as used by perl based extensions`
		6892
		6893	`* Make environment`
		6894	`Extended the PERL5LIB path seen by perl programs executed under make to`
		6895	`include 'tools/script' directories that contain Perl Modules.`
		6896
		6897
		6898	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6899	`Version: JATS_2.53.2 Released: 13-Jun-06`
		6900	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6901	`Major changes:`
		6902	`* Deployment. GetMassInstId.rul (From George Christidis)`
		6903	`Added support for SILENT_MODE`
		6904
		6905
		6906	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6907	`Version: JATS_2.53.1 Released: Not release`
		6908	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6909
		6910	`Not Released.`
		6911	`This label waas used as a place keeper. This version was not used as a basis`
		6912	`for JATS_2.53.2. Its much closer to JATS_2.54.0.`
		6913
		6914
		6915	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6916	`Version: JATS_2.53.0 Released: 11-Apr-06`
		6917	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6918	`Major changes:`
		6919	`* Deployment Scripts: Release Manager Database Access`
		6920	`The mechanism for communicating with the Release Manager Database has been`
		6921	`radically replaced.`
		6922
		6923	`A test tool has been added to prove connectivity to Release Manager.`
		6924	`Usage:`
		6925	`jats etool test_rmconnection`
		6926
		6927	`The pervious scripts used DBI::ODBC to communicate with the Oracle`
		6928	`Database that contains Release Manager. There were a number of problems with`
		6929	`this solution:`
		6930	`- Required the installation of two Perl Modules`
		6931	`- Required the installation of an Oracle client`
		6932	`- Required the use of an ODBC bridge machine when used on Solaris`
		6933	`- Support for Perl within Oracle appears to be on the decline`
		6934
		6935	`The solutions uses a Java application and Java's jdbc. The oracle:thin`
		6936	`client is used as this does not require any installation or configuration in`
		6937	`order to work.`
		6938
		6939	`JATS overrides Perl's DBI package with a package of the same name, but`
		6940	`reduced functionality.`
		6941
		6942
		6943	`Minor changes:`
		6944	`* makefile.pl directive: SetValue`
		6945	`Added a '--' option to disable and enable parsing of options.`
		6946	`This allows a value with leading '--' to be set.`
		6947
		6948	`* makefile.pl directive: SetList`
		6949	`Added this directive to formalise the creation and processing of lists`
		6950	`within the makefiles.`
		6951	`Options:`
		6952	`--NoWarn Disable name clash warnings`
		6953	`--Project=xxxx[,xxxx]+ Add to list in selected projects`
		6954	`--Unique Add only if not already present`
		6955	`--Clear Clear list, before adding new items`
		6956	`--Append Append items to list (default)`
		6957	`-- Disable/Enable option parsing`
		6958	`Useage:`
		6959
		6960	`SetList ('*', 'LibList', 'lib1', 'lib2', '--Project=syd');`
		6961	`SharedLib ('*', 'MyDLL', @OBJS, @LibList );`
		6962
		6963	`* Makefile.pl directive: RunTest`
		6964	`Corrected the option of the --CopyIn=file option where the specified file`
		6965	`is not in the current directory.`
		6966
		6967	`* Jats Command: ant'`
		6968	`This command has been extended to make use of the -buildfile=xxxx option`
		6969	`to allow multiple buildfiles to be differentiated.`
		6970
		6971	`eg: jats -buildfile=MyPackage ant`
		6972
		6973	`* TOOLSET: DAFBR Compiler support`
		6974	`Modified the toolset to support an optimisation feature of the next`
		6975	`generation of the daf_br_compiler. These will be enabled if the major version`
		6976	`of the package containing the compiler is greater the "1". ie: 2.0.0.cr`
		6977
		6978	`* Interface helper files: set_XXXX.bat/.sh`
		6979	`Added provision to process user command arguments.`
		6980	`Thus`
		6981
		6982	`set_WIN32.bat prog`
		6983
		6984	`will set the WIN32 environment and run the command: prog`

		6988	`Version: JATS_2.52.2 Released: 30-Mar-06`
		6989	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6990	`Major changes:`
		6991
		6992	`Minor changes:`
		6993	`* Addressed issue with BUILDNAME, an internal variable.`
		6994	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user build.pl's they need to be`
		6995	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a project`
		6996	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		6997	`$(BUILDNAME) contains two or three space seperated fields - always`
		6998
		6999	`* m16c Toolset - MCRFirmware`
		7000	`Force the generation of .thx and payload files when the .bin files are`
		7001	`created. Previously this only occured in the packaging phase.`
		7002
		7003	`Internal changes:`
		7004	`* JATS toolsets`
		7005	`Added a feature to allow a toolset to flag additional files that get created`
		7006	`as a part of a "Prog". This allows a "Prog" definition to generate a`
		7007	`number of files, some which may be packaged.`
		7008
		7009	`Previously such files where only generated during the packaging phase. Now`
		7010	`they will be generated during the make_prog phase - with the other programs.`
		7011
		7012	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7013	`Version: JATS_2.52.1 Released: 29-Mar-06`
		7014	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7015	`Major changes:`
		7016	`* Jats command: etool`
		7017	`Extended to allow execution of deployment tools. This allows the deployment`
		7018	`tools to use the JATS core perl modules.`
		7019
		7020	`* Address issues with the use of BUILDVER and ScmBuildVer`
		7021	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user makefile.pl's they need to be`
		7022	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a projectt`
		7023	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		7024	`$(BUILDVERSION) contains the project extension - always`
		7025	`$ScmBuildVersion does not contain a project extension - always`
		7026
		7027	`Minor changes:`
		7028
		7029
		7030	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7031	`Version: JATS_2.52.0 Released: 27-Mar-06`
		7032	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7033	`Major changes:`
		7034	`* JATS environment variables`
		7035	`Added GBE_DPKG_STORE`
		7036	`Optionally addresses a dpkg_archive store. This is intended to allow`
		7037	`read only access to a remote repository. The GBE_DPKG_STORE will be`
		7038	`searched after GBE_DPKG. It will be searched last. JATS, be default,`
		7039	`will not publish packages in this repository.`
		7040
		7041	`Uses: Seed repository for a complete build`
		7042	`Remote repository`
		7043
		7044	`Added GBE_DPLY`
		7045	`Optionally addresses a Deployment Archive. This is only used in the`
		7046	`placement of deployment packages. This value may be project specific.`
		7047
		7048	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		7049	`Changes the mechanism used to link against the compiler RTL.`
		7050	`Previously the RTL was included multiple times in the link order. This`
		7051	`created problem with daf_dsi as the function 'time()' was being satisfied by`
		7052	`the RTL before being satisfied by the user libraries.`
		7053
		7054	`The compiler RTL is now treated as a library of last resort. It will be`
		7055	`processed once and it will be processed last.`
		7056
		7057
		7058	`Minor changes:`
		7059	`* JATS utility: build`
		7060	`* JATS utility: cache_dpkg`
		7061	`Extended the package search algorithm to locate a package within`
		7062	`GBE_DPKG_STORE. This archive will be searched last.`
		7063
		7064	`* JATS utility: gen_cots`
		7065	`Ensure label is not locked`
		7066	`Add option to allow user to specify source directory other than a package`
		7067	`that already exists in dpkg_archive.`
		7068
		7069	`* JATS directive: PackageFile`
		7070	`Now supports --Prod and --Debug options to limit the packaging process`
		7071	`to a specific type of build.`
		7072
		7073	`* JATS directive: GenerateFiles and RunTests`
		7074	`Added a --PackageInfo() replacement tag to allow package version information`
		7075	`to be extracted and passed to generator programs.`
		7076	`ie: --PackageInfo(sysbasetypes,syd,--fullversion)`
		7077
		7078	`Extended the --PackageBase() replacement tag to work with packages such as`
		7079	`sysbasetypes, where there is a .cr and a .syd type.`
		7080	`ie: --PackageBase(sysbasetypes,syd)`
		7081
		7082	`* JATS utility: release`
		7083	`Under windows, ensure that the directory C:\Clearcase exists. There have`
		7084	`been installations of Clearcase where this is directory does not exist.`
		7085
		7086	`* JATS utility: label`
		7087	`Added option: "-comment=Text" to allow a comment to be added to a label,`
		7088	`when it is being created.`
		7089
		7090	`Internal Changes`
		7091	`* JATS utility: create_dpkg`
		7092	`Refactored code to use JATS DescPkg class.`
		7093
		7094	`Added options to allow packaging to the various archives. This is of no use`
		7095	`to the normal developer, but will be used within the complete build system.`
		7096
		7097	`* Factored out the parsing of the BuildName directive`
		7098	`This process was being done in 3 locations - and there were getting`
		7099	`different results.`
		7100
		7101	`* ToolsetRequire directive`
		7102	`This has been extended to allow JATS to locate Toolset extensions within`
		7103	`packages. They should be placed within the tool/scripts directory`
		7104
		7105	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7106	`Version: JATS_2.51.0 Released: 15-Mar-06`

		7115	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7116	`Major changes:`
		7117	`* WIN32 utilities`
		7118	`Replaced a number of the Windows utilities ( cp, rm, mv ...)`
		7119	`with versions from the GNUWin32 project.`
		7120
		7121	`The 'cp' previously used could not recursively copy large directories`
		7122	`under Windows Server 2003, when both the source and destination are on the`
		7123	`same drive. ( dpkg_cache of ace ).`
		7124
		7125	`Minor changes:`
		7126	`* BuildVersion`
		7127	`The definition of VERSION_BUILD within the generated version-defs.h file`
		7128	`will have leading zeros removed, thus allowing it to be used within a 'C'`
		7129	`program without the number being interpreted as an octal constant.`
		7130
		7131	`The string form (VERSION_BUILD_STR) will retain the zeros.`
		7132
		7133	`* Unix Builds`
		7134	`Corrected several issues encountered when specifying the name of a static`
		7135	`library or a shared library.`
		7136
		7137	`JATS will prepend 'lib' to the user specified library name. Problems occurred`
		7138	`when the user specified a library name that started with 'lib'. Now, on Unix`
		7139	`systems, JATS will only prepend 'lib' if the library name does not already`
		7140	`start with 'lib'.`
		7141
		7142	`* BuildPkgArchive`
		7143	`Since 2.45.0 JATS will only transfer files for the BuildPkgArchive, if`
		7144	`they have not already been transferred. Added a test for the source`
		7145	`package being updated and then forceing the copy to be repeated.`

		7148	`Version: JATS_2.49.0 Released: 10-Feb-06`
		7149	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7150	`Major changes:`
		7151	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		7152	`Corrected a problem with the dependencies between a .REL file and the target`
		7153	`THX file. If the .REL files was modified the output THX file did not get`
		7154	`regenerated. This was only a problem in cases where the .REL file was`
		7155	`being manually maintained.`
		7156
		7157
		7158	`Minor changes:`
		7159	`* MakeAnt directive`
		7160	`Introduced a check to ensure that this directive is only used with a toolset`
		7161	`that can handle an 'ant' build file. Currently only the JAVA toolset`
		7162	`supports ANT builds.`
		7163
		7164	`* BuildPkgArchive directive`
		7165	`Correct problem in the caching of BuildPkgArchive packages in the case where`
		7166	`there is no GBE_DPKG_LOCAL on the machine.`
		7167
		7168	`* Label utility`
		7169	`Added a 'files=filename,filename' option to allow only specified`
		7170	`files to be labeled.`

		7177	`Fix a bug with the CompilerOptions that allowed a '0' definition to be set to`
		7178	`nothing.`
		7179
		7180	`* MOS Toolset`
		7181	`Added 'CompileOptions' of CcSupervisor.`
		7182	`This will set a MOS internal definition suitable for building specialised`
		7183	`modules.`
		7184
		7185	`* Utility: gen_cots`
		7186	`This utility will create a JATS buildable package froma dpkg_archive entry`
		7187	`and then check it in under clearcase.`
		7188
		7189	`JATS etool gen_cots -man will provide only help.`

227	dpurdie	7204
		7205	`* Utility: release (cbuild)`
		7206	`Added an option to create a view configured to work with a branching`
		7207	`rule. A single branch can be named with the -branch option. eg:`
		7208
		7209	`jats release -extract 'label' -branch SITS_LEGACY_BRANCH`
		7210
		7211	`will create a view based on the named label, but suitable for creating`
		7212	`a patch for Sydney Legacy work.`
		7213
		7214	`* RunTest directive`
		7215	`The 'PATH' that the test uses is extended to allow access to programs that have`
		7216	`been installed with a InstallProg directive. This allows a test script to`
		7217	`test a program that is generated elsewhere within the package.`
		7218
		7219	`* PackageFile, Option --DirTree`
		7220	`Support for filenames that contain a "$" or a ' ' within the`
		7221	`--DirTree option. Implemented to allow entire JAVA class trees to be`
		7222	`packaged under JATS`
		7223
		7224	`Note: In general the use of a $ and space within a filename is not`
		7225	`supported within JATS.`
		7226
		7227	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7228	`Added an eprog option. The allows any program to be run within the`
		7229	`sanitized environment provided by JATS.`
		7230
		7231	`The specified program may be in the current directory or the user's`
		7232	`PATH. If the program is a perl script then it will be run with the`
		7233	`JATS perl interpreter, otherwise it will be processed by the system.`
		7234
		7235	`Eg: jats eprog myscript arg1 arg2`
		7236	`Eg: jats ant`
		7237
		7238	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7239	`Added an 'ant' command. ( "jats ant" )`
		7240
5710	dpurdie	7241	`This will run an VIX ANT build by scanning the current directory for a file`
227	dpurdie	7242	`called <ProjectName>depends.xml and then looking the a file called`
		7243	`<ProjectName>.xml. Jats will then create 'auto.xml' based on the`
		7244	`<ProjectName>depends.xml file and use ant to invoke the`
		7245	`<ProjectName>.xml file.`
		7246
5710	dpurdie	7247	`If the VIX build files cannot be found then ant is simply run and it will`
227	dpurdie	7248	`expect a build.pl file.`
		7249
		7250	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7251	`Force the environment variable PERL5INC to be unset.`
		7252
		7253	`* Jats utility: create_dpkg`
		7254	`Simplify handling of ANT based projects. Look for the package within`
		7255	`the build/pkg subdirectory, in the JANTS style.`
		7256
		7257	`* Utility: gen_winrc (DEVI-022054)`
		7258	`Added a "'-product=text'" option to allow the product name to be specified.`
		7259
		7260	`* Build files`
		7261	`Handle the java generated descpkg files. These are a Manifest format with`
5710	dpurdie	7262	`VIX extensions.`

		7264	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7265	`Version: JATS_2.47.0 Released: 20-Dec-05`
		7266	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7267	`Major changes:`
		7268	`* BuildVersion directive in build.pl`
		7269	`Correct a problem in the generation of version.c`
		7270	`The function GetModuleInfo() would return a string with a trailing`
		7271	`space when the 'array' mode was selected.`
		7272
		7273	`This may cause module validation to fail.`
		7274
		7275	`Minor changes:`
		7276	`* None`
		7277
		7278	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7279	`Version: JATS_2.46.0 Released: 08-Dec-05`
		7280	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7281	`Major changes:`
		7282	`* BuildProduct and BuildPlatforms directives`
		7283	`Added option --Uses=NAME`
		7284	`ie:`
		7285	`BuildProduct ( 'OBFTP,--Uses=TP5', 'MOSCF' );`
		7286
		7287	`This will create a OBFTP_MOSCF platform that will 'use' TP5`
		7288	`headers and libraries if none are specifically provided for the`
		7289	`OBFTP. It is the users responsibily to ensure that the two build`
		7290	`environments are compatible.`
		7291
		7292
		7293	`Minor changes:`
		7294	`* BuildName option`
		7295	`Modifications to allow the creation of COTS packages with buildnames`
5710	dpurdie	7296	`that do not confirm to the VIX naming scheme (--RelaxedVersion).`
227	dpurdie	7297
		7298	`* jats.bat`
		7299	`Ensure that GBE_BIN is not defined`
		7300	`It will be set by the jats.pl to a fully qualified path.`
		7301
		7302	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7303	`Version: JATS_2.45.0 Released: 29-Nov-05`
		7304	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7305	`Major changes:`
		7306	`* BuildPkgArchive directive`
		7307	`The operation of the BuildPkgArchive directive has been modified`
		7308	`so that a package will only be installed once. This significantly`
		7309	`speeds up multiple 'build' operations.`
		7310
		7311	`If the package is being extracted from the 'local archive', then`
		7312	`this mechanism is suppressed as packages in the local archive are`
		7313	`considered as under development and are subject to change.`
		7314
		7315	`If package cache is being refreshed, then the package will be`
		7316	`installed a second time. Thus it is possible to force the package to`
		7317	`be transferred into the 'interface' directory.`
		7318
		7319	`A BuildTags directory is used to track packages that have been`
		7320	`transferred.`
		7321
		7322	`* Internal changes to factor common code into a group of packages.`
		7323	`See notes below.`
		7324
		7325	`* WIN32 toolset`
		7326	`Allow the Microsoft preprocessor directive #import to operate`
		7327	`correctly.`
		7328
		7329	`Export the complete library search path into the build environment`
		7330	`for all Microsoft command, not just the linker and library commands.`
		7331
		7332	`* BuildVersion`
		7333	`Modifications to allow the generation of version files for C#`
		7334	`The mechanism has been extended to allow version information for`
		7335	`other langauges as needed.`
		7336
		7337
		7338	`Minor changes:`
		7339	`* Utility: gen_winrc.pl`
		7340	`Will extracted build number from the patch number, if present.`
		7341	`This information will be available to be placed into the generation`
		7342	`version strings.`
		7343
		7344	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		7345	`Fixed a problem detecting programs that were not in the local`
		7346	`package or an imported package.`
		7347
		7348	`* Toolsets: MOS_MRI`
		7349	`Generate an error if required tools are not found.`
		7350	`Previously this condition would generate a warning.`
		7351
		7352	`* BuildPkgArchive and LinkPkgArchive directives`
		7353	`Ensure that packages are only included once. The previous check`
		7354	`was half-hearted and could allow multiple packages of the same`
		7355	`version to be included. This could result in badly formed`
		7356	`makefiles and strange error messages.`
		7357
		7358	`Internal Changes`
		7359	`* Started to factor out internal packages and place them into a common`
		7360	`directory. This will allow common error handling thoughout the suite`
		7361	`of utilities.`
		7362
		7363	`Modified all utilities to utilize the common error reporting`
		7364	`functions.`
		7365
		7366	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7367	`Version: JATS_2.44.0 Released: 18-Nov-05`
		7368	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7369	`Major changes:`
		7370	`* Generated makefiles`
		7371	`Modified the windows shell to remove the use of the EXTENDED_LINE`
		7372	`cache. This did not work. Modified the extend.lst file to ensure`
		7373	`that sed did not process its arguments.`
		7374
		7375	`This has been done to address a problem seen within test scripts`
		7376	`within unit tests that use wildcard expansion. The windows shell was`
		7377	`incorrectly processing:`
		7378	`sed '-es~.*WIN32~~'`
		7379	`The '.*' construct was being seen as a wildcard and the shell was`
		7380	`then putting the argument into a command file - it was totally`
		7381	`confused.`
		7382
		7383	`NOTE: Attempted to remove use of EXTENDED_LINE, but this caused a`
		7384	`breakage with the DOS based gcc compiler( ie:H8S and others).`
		7385	`The construct`
		7386	`-D__SOURCE__=\"name\"`
		7387	`was corrupted somewhere. If the command is put in a command file,`
		7388	`then it works.`
		7389
		7390	`* MakeAnt directive`
		7391	`Added option: --GeneratedFile=PathOfFile`
		7392
		7393	`This option has the following effects`
		7394	`1) Marks the file a source file. It is then known to JATS and`
		7395	`can be used installed and manipulated.`
		7396
		7397	`2) Schedules the processing of the ANT build to be done`
		7398	`early - in the generated files phase.`
		7399
		7400	`Intended use. The creation of packages with a JNI. The Java`
		7401	`component needs to generate a header file early.`
		7402
		7403
		7404	`Minor changes:`
		7405	`* JATS post-installation script`
		7406	`Flag deployment tools and libraries as executable.`
		7407
		7408	`* Detection of extension type is case insensitive for non-unix`
		7409	`systems. Thus .h and .H files will considered header files in`
		7410	`windows.`
		7411
		7412	`* Build.pl rewrite tool`
		7413	`Handle all variants of BuildName`
		7414
		7415	`* Jats wrapper script`
		7416	`Generate an error if the JATS configuration variables are not usable`
		7417	`1) Contain spaces`
		7418	`2) Start with a // - Remote drives must be mapped`
		7419
		7420	`* Toolset`
		7421	`Added a 'LINUX' platform.`
		7422
		7423	`* JAVA toolset`
		7424	`Ensure the that build file passed via MakeAnt contains the following`
		7425	`directive:`
		7426
		7427	`includeAntRuntime="off"'`
		7428
		7429	`This MUST be used to ensure that ANT's classpath is not passed to`
		7430	`the java compiler thus ensuring that the compiler does not use ANT's`
		7431	`version of any JAR files that have not been specified by the user.`
		7432
		7433	`* GCC Toolset`
		7434	`Use -Map name to create map files as needed for GCC under Debian`
		7435
		7436	`* Makefile generation`
		7437	`When packages are used by name to resolve package location JATS`
		7438	`has been modified to use the package name specified by the user.`
		7439	`Previously JATS would use the package name found within the`
		7440	`descpkg file. In cases where the descpkg file was badly formed the`
		7441	`package could not be used.`
		7442
		7443	`* Unit Tests`
		7444	`The following environment variables are set:`
		7445
		7446	`GBE_TYPE - The type of build. Debug or production. This`
		7447	`will be set to either a 'P' or 'D'`
		7448
		7449	`GBE_HOST - The host machine we are running on.`
		7450	`This will be set to 'WIN' or Unix'`
		7451
		7452	`These variable should assist in the production of test scripts.`
		7453
		7454	`* New makefile.pl directive: SetValue`
		7455
		7456
		7457	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`

		7459	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7460	`Major changes:`
		7461	`* New Platform : "MCR" using the Mitsubishi m16c compiler.`
		7462
		7463	`Special features of this toolset.`
		7464	`1) A .THX source file will be converted to an obtect file`
		7465	`This allows processing of fonts within a THX file to be`
		7466	`incorporated within the target image.`
		7467
		7468	`2) Prog directive extensions:`
		7469	`--Set=Name=Value`
		7470	`The 'Name' is set to 'Value' at link time.`
		7471	`This allows the location of program segments to be set`
		7472
		7473	`--Ref=name`
		7474	`The name of a Release file. If provided, it will be used`
		7475	`to provide information that will be placed within the`
		7476	`THX header. The version number will be ignored. It`
		7477	`will be taken from the build version number.`
		7478
		7479	`Minor changes:`
		7480	`* MOS Toolset`
		7481	`Create the VisionClick files when the THX file is created.`
		7482	`Previously the files were created when the THX was installed or`
		7483	`packaged.`
		7484
		7485	`* Src directive`
		7486	`No generates a warning if no source files are located within the`
		7487	`directive. This is normally the result of a missing platform`
		7488	`specifier.`
		7489
		7490	`* WIN32 runtime support`
		7491	`Added the following 'Unix' style utilities to assist in testing.`
		7492	`1) od - dump files in octal and other formats`
		7493	`2) cmp - compare two files byte by byte`
		7494
		7495	`Internal:`
		7496	`Added an extension to allow the target toolset to handle the "Prog"`
		7497	`dependancy generation if required. This allow complex program`
		7498	`generation mechanisms to be handled by the toolset.`
		7499
		7500	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7501	`Version: JATS_2.42.0 Released: 19-Oct-05`

		7503	`Major changes:`
		7504	`* BuildAlias directive`
		7505	`Added options.`
		7506	`--Define - Does not create implicit platforms`
		7507	`--Target - Redeclares the alais as the list of all`
		7508	`platforms that are based on a given target or`
		7509	`targets.`
		7510	`Eg:`
		7511	`BuildAlias ( 'LMOS,--Target', 'LMOS_WIN32', 'LMOS_linux_armv4' );`
		7512	`BuildProduct ( 'GAK', 'LMOS', 'MOS68K', 'MOSCF' );`
		7513	`BuildProduct ( 'PCP', 'LMOS', 'MOS68K' );`
		7514
		7515	`Will export an alias of LMOS that can be used within makefile.pl's`
		7516	`that will be the list of all platforms that have a target of`
		7517	`'LMOS_WIN32' or 'LMOS_linux_armv4'.`
		7518
		7519	`Note the dual use of LMOS within the example. This is intentional.`
		7520	`The LMOS alias is used within the BuildProduct to simplify the`
		7521	`specification of all the LMOS targets.`
		7522
		7523
		7524	`Minor changes:`
		7525	`* Label utility`
		7526	`Will generate a warning message if it labels more than one`
		7527	`build.pl file`
		7528
		7529	`* Package directives. PackageFile.`
		7530	`Corrected a problem with wildcard expansion in which a --FilterIn`

		7532	`Now all files in the tree are considered 'in' unless modified by the`
		7533	`--FilterIn option.`
		7534
		7535	`* jats release (cbuilder) utility`
		7536	`Correct use of the -prodOnly and -debugOnly flags.`
		7537	`The full name was not accepted; -debug and -prod was.`
		7538
		7539	`* Location of descpkg file`
		7540	`All makefile.pl's now know where the package descpkg file was`
		7541	`created. This simplifies the process og packaging this file as it`
		7542	`can be done within any makefile.pl.`

		7549	`Extended the options and operation of RunTest`
		7550	`Additional options`
		7551	`--CopyIn=file`
		7552	`This will copy the specified file into the BIN directory before`
		7553	`the test is run. The file will be marked as executable. This`
		7554	`allows scripts and configuration files to be transferred into`
		7555	`the test area.`
		7556
		7557	`Additional operations`
		7558	`The arguments passed to the script/program allow a number of`
		7559	`transformations, similar to GenerateFiles. Transforms`
		7560	`--File(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a known file`
		7561	`--Local(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a file that has been Installed`

		7589
		7590	`The default will use the default machine version of JAVA.`
		7591	`This may not be sutable for all packages.`
		7592
		7593	`Non-default versions of JAVA require that an environment variable be`
		7594	`set to the root of the JDK directory. These are:`

		7603
		7604	`* JATS environment`
		7605	`Ensure that all programs run under JATS in Windows have an uppercase`
		7606	`COMSPEC envvar. Windows appears to define a mixed case one. Fixed in`

		7681
		7682	`* Release utility`
		7683	`Add options to build only the debug or the production versions.`
		7684	`The default is to build both. Note: User option may be further`
		7685	`restricted by options within the build.`
		7686
		7687	`* PackageLib, InstallLib and MergeLib directives in makefile.pl`
		7688	`The use of @LIBS and @MLIBS in unix systems was causing a`
		7689	`problem as these variables already had a 'lib' prepended to the`
		7690	`list of libraries. These directives would add another 'lib' to the`
		7691	`list of libraries under unix causing a mismatch.`
		7692
		7693	`Corrected by stripping liblib from the names within these`
		7694	`directives.`
		7695
		7696	`* MakeProject directive`
		7697	`If the project build fails the log file was not being displayed`
		7698	`because 'make' stops when a command fails.`
		7699
		7700	`The MakeProject operations have been modified to ensure that the`
		7701	`log file is always displayed. The exit code of the build command`
		7702	`is preserved.`
		7703
		7704	`* Auto build utility jats-rewrite.pl`
		7705	`Modified to support the rewrite of Java 'using' and 'project'`
		7706	`statements.`
		7707
		7708	`* Mugfile generation`
		7709	`Added a --ThxDir=xxxx option to allow the THX and load files to`
		7710	`be placed in the target package.`
		7711

		7716	`Major changes:`
		7717	`* BuildVersion directive`
		7718	`The 'defs' mode has been extended to create a file with a build`
		7719	`number as well as a patch number.`
		7720
		7721	`The patch number is decoded into a patch number and a build`
		7722	`number.`
		7723
		7724	`Minor changes:`
		7725	`* AddFlags directives`
		7726	`Added a --NoWarn option that will suppress the warning of`
		7727	`duplicate flags being added.`
		7728
		7729	`* GBE_CORE environment variable (Windows)`
		7730	`Ensure that GBE_CORE has a driver letter. This allows use of JATS`
		7731	`loaded into the same dynamic view as the user code.`
		7732
		7733	`* Mug File Generation`
		7734	`Added support to allow load files to include other load files.`
		7735
		7736	`* 'cbuild' or 'release' command`
		7737	`Added a -latestroot=xxxx option. This is a work around for the`
		7738	`problem where the root level directory in the VOB has not been`
		7739	`labeled. After using this switch add the label to the root`
		7740	`directory.`
		7741
		7742	`The need to use this this switch indicates that the view is NOT`
		7743	`reproducible.`

		7752	`longer a list of directories.`
		7753

		7772	`Enhanced (thanks Ross) to allow PATH information for various`
		7773	`target platforms to be extracted.`
		7774
		7775	`Better support for Product families. This is only an issue`
		7776	`for WIN32 derived families due to the generation of a list of`
		7777	`libraries. The list now observes Product hierarchy.`
		7778
		7779	`* Utility: release (cbuilder)`

		7796
		7797	`Prog('*', 'Myprog', @OBJS );`
		7798	`GenerateFiles ('*', "--Prog=MyProg",`
		7799	`'--Prereq(infile)',`

		7804	`tests will be run with the 'run_unit_tests' target. All tests will`
		7805	`be run with the 'run_tests' targets. Only tests that confirm to`
5710	dpurdie	7806	`the VIX "Unit Test Automation" guidelines should be marked as`
227	dpurdie	7807	`-- Auto.`
		7808
		7809	`* Added a new make target: run_unit_tests`
		7810	`This will be used by the build tool to run non-interactive`
		7811	`unit tests within an automated framework.`
		7812
		7813	`* Make run_test and run_unit_test operation`
		7814	`The search path for DLL's or Shared Libraries is extended to`
		7815	`include all Shared Libraries in the build package list as well`
		7816	`as the local and interface directory. This allows tests to`
		7817	`locate required Shared Libraries at runtime.`
		7818
		7819	`* WIN32 targets built using Visual Studio 6`
		7820	`The path to the compiler is setup within JATS. It is no longer`
		7821	`imported from the users environment as the environment is`
		7822	`indeterminate when multiple versions of Visual Studio are`
		7823	`installed on the machine.`
		7824
		7825	`* WINCE Targets`
		7826	`The name of the SDK is case sensitive.`

		7839
		7840	`* Building DLL or EXE with the --NoPDB option will disable the`
		7841	`generation of debug information so that the linker does not`

		7843
		7844	`* UNIX Platforms (SOLARIS and LINUX)`
		7845	`Modification to allow BuildProduct and BuildPkgArchive to`
		7846	`interwork. Previously BuildPkgArchive packages were placed into`
		7847	`the 'interface/lib/SOLARIS' subdirectory and this was not being`
		7848	`searched when looking for libraries.`
		7849
		7850	`Minor changes:`
		7851	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		7852	`New sub-options to filename generation commands`
		7853	`--abspath - provide the named file with an absolute path`
		7854	`--absdrive - provide the named file with an absolute path`
		7855	`and drive letter`
		7856
		7857	`* Src directive`
		7858	`Modified the --FromPackage' option to allow searching of the root`
		7859	`directory of a package.`
		7860
		7861	`Src('*', 'etc/data.ini', '--FromPackage' );`
		7862
		7863	`Also prevent warnings on duplicate files if the package is`

		7890	`windows, which has a habit of capitalizing filenames.`
		7891	`This should not affect current users.`

		7893	`* Mugfile generation`
		7894	`Extended the --Package option to allow subdirectories to be`
		7895	`specified.`

		7906	`Minor changes:`
		7907	`* Jats wrapper script`
		7908	`Windows: Ensure that cmd.exe is in the users PATH. Without cmd.exe`

		7910	`that cmd.exe is in the users PATH.`
		7911
		7912	`* LinkPkgArchive and BuildPkgArchive`
		7913	`Processing soft links. Generate a warnings if a package soft`

		7941
		7942	`* MakeAnt directive`
		7943	`Now supports --Debug and --Prod options to limit the building of`
		7944	`ANT files. The MakeAnt directive is only going to work in`
		7945	`conjunction with the JAVA target`

		7982	`* Support for Windows DLLs`
		7983	`When building a WIN32 target the file interface/set_WIN32.bat is`

		7985	`by the package to be accessed.`
		7986
		7987	`The file may be "called" from a wrapper batch file to start the`
		7988	`application or visual studio.`

		8031	`Added --ForceBuildPkg switch to the 'jats build' command to`
		8032	`force LinkPkgArchive directives to be interpreted as`
		8033	`BuildPkgArchive. This option is useful for the creation of`

		8035	`in a known directory structure within the sandbox.`
		8036
		8037	`* WINCE and WIN32 Toolset`
		8038	`Options for Program and Shared Library construction`

		8055	`of SOLARIS and creates a targets of SOLARIS_sparc`
		8056
		8057	`* MugFile generation`

		8063	`Multiple platforms should be specified as:`
		8064	`Src( 'PLAT1,PLAT2,PLAT3', .... );`
		8065	`with only a comma between the platforms: No whitespace`
		8066	`If whitespace did exist then the makefile.pl would not do what`
		8067	`was expected - and it would not warn the user. The simplest`
		8068	`solution was to allow whitespace either side of the comma.`
		8069
		8070	`* GenerateFiles directive within makefile.pl`
		8071	`Allow 3 different bracket styles for the arguments to allow for`

		8092	`other components.`

		8122	`production.`
		8123

		8147	`The PDB files created when compiling objects for DLLs are now not`

		8311
		8312	`* LinkPkgArchive and BuildPkgArchive will cause the build to fail if`

		8617	`figure out what sort of file it is has been removed.`
		8618
		8619	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8620	`Version: JATS_2.10.0 Released: 11-Mar-05`
		8621	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8622	`Major changes:`
		8623	`* Extended BuildName to accept the form`
		8624	`BuildName ('package_name', 'nn.nn.nn.xxx' );`
		8625
		8626	`* MOS68K and MOSCF toolset.`
		8627	`Extended the --board option to allow the user to define code and`
		8628	`data addresses for the board.`
		8629
		8630	`BuildProduct( 'TP5', 'MOSCF','--board=01234H,05678H' );`
		8631
		8632	`Will set the code,data address for the debugable image`
		8633
		8634	`* Extended the PackageXxxxx options`
		8635	`1) Allow --Platform=xxx,yyy`
		8636	`Where xxx is a directory prefix and yyy is suffix to the`
		8637	`"platform" name. Only useful within the context of the`
		8638	`PackageFile`
		8639
		8640	`2) The operation of --Platform=xxx when used by the PackageFile`
		8641	`directive now treats the xxx directory as a prefix to the`
		8642	`platform name. Other Package directives still treat it as a`
		8643	`suffix. In practice this is the logical use.`
		8644
		8645	`* Allow InstallLib and PackageLib to install a file that has been`
		8646	`discovered with a "Src" directive. This allows generated files`
		8647	`to be installed and packaged.`
		8648
		8649	`Minor changes:`
		8650
		8651	`* cache_dpkg utility`
		8652	`If a package is found in the local_dpkg_archive then the cache`
		8653	`entry will be deleted and the master archive will not be accessed.`
		8654
		8655	`* label utility`
		8656	`New option -auto to create and label`
		8657
		8658	`* Build WIN32 and WinCe Mutual DLLs with all the object files`
		8659	`This allows the generated import library to contain C++ names`
		8660
		8661	`* The BuildDirTree directive now supports an empty first argument`
		8662	`This allows a NULL tree.dir file, while still creating the root`
		8663	`directory. ie:`
		8664
		8665	`BuildDirTree ( '', 'pkg' );`
		8666
		8667	`* Fixed DEVIM 00019520`
		8668	`The problem was that /bin/pwd could return a different path to`
		8669	`the Cwd:getpwd() function. Solution: Use one mechanism throughout.`
		8670
		8671
		8672	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8673	`Version: JATS_2.9.0 Released: 28-Feb-05`
		8674	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8675	`Major changes:`
		8676	`* First release for Back Office and Front Office use.`
		8677
		8678	`* Added the jats tool jats_rewrite.pl to rewrite build.pl files.`
		8679	`To be used by the nightly build process.`
		8680
		8681	`* Work around a problem in the Microtec 68K compiler.`
		8682	`The compiler uses temp files. If the temp file name that the`
		8683	`compiler uses already exists, then the compiler will not delete`
		8684	`the file. Instead it appends information to the existing file.`
		8685
		8686	`The workaround is to create the temp files within the build's`
		8687	`interface directory and to remove all temp files before each`
		8688	`compilation.`
		8689
		8690	`This bug does not affect the Mictotec CF compiler.`
		8691
		8692	`Minor changes:`
		8693	`* The "jats clobber" command will remove version definition file, if`
		8694	`one is being produced.`
		8695
		8696	`* Using JATS within a Visual Studio project. The "rebuild all"`
		8697	`option now translates to the JATS unbuild command to do a better`
		8698	`job of cleaning the workspace.`
		8699
		8700	`* Added GetPackageRoot() directive to support the packaging of MOS`
		8701
		8702	`* Generate error message for misuse of the SubDir directive`
		8703
		8704	`* Modified BuildName to allow an '-' in the name.`
		8705	`This provides backward compatibility with existing packages.`
		8706
		8707	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8708	`Version: JATS_2.8.0 Released: 17-Feb-05`
		8709	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8710	`Major changes:`
		8711	`* Added some new WINCE based targets. These require WINCE SDKs to be`
		8712	`installed in order for the compilers to work.`
		8713
		8714	`* New PLATFORMS are WCEIT3000, WCEPA961 and WCEPCM7220`
		8715
		8716	`* All invocations of xmake specify the name of the makefile`
		8717	`This allow GNUMakefiles and the Jats makefiles to exist in the`
		8718	`same directory`
		8719
		8720	`* Overcome a limitation of the Microtec compiler in which the flag`
		8721	`_DEBUG is defined enev in production builds - contrary to the`
		8722	`documenattion.`
		8723
		8724	`Minor changes:`
		8725	`* Process of descpkg files allows for both Unix and DOS line endings`
		8726	`Under Unix JATS would report that the package names don't match`
		8727
		8728	`* Corrected a problem with BuildPkgArchive in which file names with`
		8729	`spaces could not be soft linked. Only affects Unix systems.`
		8730
		8731	`* Added a -rename to the "jats label" utility.`
		8732	`Ensure that the user specified label exists in the VOB`
		8733
		8734	`* Correct problem with "make clean" that resulted in a verbose display`
		8735	`when the verbose option had not been selected`
		8736
		8737	`* Correct a problem with "make unbuild". Changes in the build files`
		8738	`would prevent the execution of the command. This command should`
		8739	`be exempt from this test.`
		8740
		8741	`* Correct a problem with "make clean" in the WIN32 and WINCE`
		8742	`platforms where the .exp files were not deleted.`
		8743
		8744	`* The "JATS clobber" command now invokes "make clobber" and "build`
		8745	`clobber". The result is as clean a clean as it can be.`
		8746
		8747	`Note: Jats "clean" does not remove a lot of files. These can be`
		8748	`removed with "unbuild" and "unpackage". This is what "clobber"`
		8749	`does.`
		8750
		8751	`* The operation of "build clobber" has been cleaned up. It will`
		8752	`not try to invoke make if the makefiles have already been removed.`
		8753
		8754
		8755	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8756	`Version: JATS_2.7.0 Released: 09-Feb-05`
		8757	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8758	`Major changes:`
		8759	`* First release with support for the DAFBR compiler`
		8760
		8761	`* Extended MergeLibrary. Added per-file options of:`
		8762	`--Interface - Pull lib from Interface directory`
		8763	`--Local - Pull lib from Local directory (default)`
		8764	`--SubDir=pathname - Pull lib from a subdirectory`
		8765	`Note: xxxx,pathname still works`
		8766
		8767	`* Added "jats label" to provide a number of useful labeling`
		8768	`operations.`
		8769
		8770	`* Added extensive help to JATS. JATS -man.`
		8771
		8772	`* Added this manual ChangeLog file`
		8773
		8774	`Minor changes`
		8775	`* Added an 'ebin' command to jats to allow the JATS binary tools to`
		8776	`be run in a controlled environment from the command line.`
		8777
		8778	`* Prune the list of library paths passed through to the various`
		8779	`toolsets. If a directory does not have any files in it then the`
		8780	`directory is not added to the library path.`
		8781
		8782	`Thus if a library is located in xxxx/lib/WIN32 then JATS will`
		8783	`not add the xxxx/lib to the path.`
		8784
		8785	`* cbuilder will now look in all VOBs for the user specified label.`
		8786	`The program has a list of "known" labels which it will search`
		8787	`first in an attempt to speed up the process.`
		8788
		8789	`* The AddFlags directive will issue a warning if the flags does not`
		8790	`begin with a -D or a -U. The user should not be using compiler`
		8791	`specific flags.`
		8792
		8793	`* The use of linker flags will issue a warning.`
		8794
		8795	`* Process the common makefile.pl after the toolset has been`
		8796	`determined. This allows the toolset to extend the CompileOptions`
		8797	`such they are available to the common makefile.pl.`
		8798
		8799	`* Added the WIN32 CompileOptions "jats_v1" to force JATS to specify`
		8800	`a number of compile time definitions used by earlier versions of`
		8801	`JATS.`
		8802
		8803	`* Fixed bug in the --Debug option to the PackageProg directives that`
		8804	`caused both the production and debug versions to be packaged.`
		8805
		8806	`* The gen_msproject utility now creates simpler names for the MS`
		8807	`projects that it creates. The name no longer contains the full`
		8808	`pathname, thus making them shorter and readable.`
		8809
		8810	`* The ShowDlls utility now handles absolute and relative paths to`
		8811	`the initial DLL or EXE.`
		8812
		8813	`* Correct problem in which the use of Generate/Rule directives may`
		8814	`fail since prerequisite subdirectories were not being created`
		8815	`since the "generate" phase was not being run.`
		8816
		8817	`Added messages to prompt the user to remove Generate, Generated`
		8818	`and Rule directives. Use the GenerateFiles directive`
		8819
		8820	`* JATS.BAT file will exclude LINUX builds by default.`
		8821
		8822	`* The make NODEPEND=1 processing now does not recurse at all.`
		8823	`Previously each subdirectory was visited - only to do nothing.`
		8824
		8825	`* Correct a problem in creating stub libraries for MOS targets if`
		8826	`the stub library object was not listed with the SharedLib's`
		8827	`objects.`
		8828
		8829	`* Correct a problem with the MS Studio support. The invoked make`
		8830	`command is XXX_all_debug. There was a problem with this command in`
		8831	`that it did not do any dependancy checking and would not always`
		8832	`build defendants.`
