		3561	`* jats label command - Renaming a label`
		3562	`Address issue when renaming a label when the current ClearCase view is`

		3597	`It will create an 'auto.pl' file, which JATS uses in preference to a`
		3598	`build.pl file. DO NOT check this file in.`

		3609	`When creating a ShardLibrary (THX) report missing libraries before`
		3610	`compiling the objects that go into the THX.`
		3611
		3612	`This ensures that the error messages the describe the missing library`

		3625	`* Makefile directive helper function: If`
		3626	`Used within another directive to enable or disable arguments passed to the`
		3627	`outer directive. The first argument is a 'platform' specifier - as in`

		3643
		3644	`* GCC Toolkit`
		3645	`Changes to the shared library dependency processing to bring it inline`
		3646	`with other toolers. Will terminate after determining that some`
		3647	`libraries cannot be found. This will ensure that the error message is at`
		3648	`the point of termination.`
		3649
		3650	`* Jats save_build utility`
		3651	`Corrected problem in unreserving a reserved checkout of a build.pl file`

		3653
		3654	`* Jats sandbox`

		3724	`* Solaris 10, 64 Bit Sparc Builds`
		3725	`All compiles are done in a position independent manner (-KPIC)`
		3726	`This solved issues where static libraries are linked into shared`
		3727	`libraries.`
		3728
		3729	`* Solaris builds`
		3730	`Program and Shared library dependency checking is now done before`
		3731	`the program/library objects are built. Thus errors associated with missing`
		3732	`dependencies occur before objects are built and the user can see the cause`
		3733	`of the build failure.`
		3734
		3735
		3736	`Internal changes:`

309	dpurdie	3853	`The cmdfile utility creates paths with file path separators as discovered`
307	dpurdie	3854	`in the PATH EnvVar. Now that PATH is nice it means that the use of cmdfile`
309	dpurdie	3855	`to create shell scripts resulted in scripts with unsuitable separators.`

		4051
		4052	`See Jats Reference Manual for complete details and Delphi specific options`
		4053	`to the Prog and SharedLib directives.`
		4054
		4055	`This toolset has a number of limitations:`
		4056	`1) It can build either Debug or Production, but not both, in a single`
		4057	`makefile.pl. This is caused by the Delphi limitation that library`
		4058	`names cannot be changed.`
		4059
		4060	`2) The generation of dependencies between the source and the generated`
		4061	`artifacts is very simplistic.`
		4062
		4063	`Units are generated with the 'Lib' directive. The name of the Unit and the`
		4064	`name of the source are linked. The source should not be provided.`
		4065	`ie: Lib ('*', 'MyUnit' );`
		4066	`Will create a unit called MyUnit.dcu from the source file 'MyUnit.pas'`
		4067

		4069	`file.`
		4070	`ie: SharedLib ( '*', 'MyPackage' );`
		4071	`will create a package called MyPackage.bpl/dcp from the source file`

		4073
		4074	`Libraries are generated with the SharedLib directive starting with a .dpr`
		4075	`file.`
		4076	`ie: SharedLib ( '*', 'MyDll' );`
		4077	`will create a package called MyDll.dll/lib from the source file`
		4078	`MyDll.dpr.`
		4079
		4080	`Programs are generated with the Prog directive starting with a .dpr`
		4081	`file.`
		4082	`ie: Prog ( '*', 'MyProg' );`
		4083	`will create a package called MyProg.exe from the source file`
		4084	`MyProg.dpr.`
		4085
		4086	`Minor changes:`
		4087	`* New EnvVar: DELPHI7`
		4088	`Required only if Borland Delphi 7 has not being installed in the`

		4096	`Modified the operation of the "C" style generation.`
		4097	`If the name of the file is provided via '--File', then the generated files`

		4100
		4101	`* Sanity test on the names of libraries and programs`
		4102	`Some characters are not allowed: ie: '/' as this is a mistake.`

		4104	`Internal Changes:`
		4105	`* ToolsetSHLD functions`
		4106	`Pass in the shared library version string as an argument`
		4107	`Means that the core of JATS can manage this information in a manner`
		4108	`that is decoupled from the toolsets.`
		4109
		4110	`* Reworked the mechanism used to hold data about libraries, shared libraries`
		4111	`merged libraries and programs. Created a class to manipulate build targets`

		4129	`Minor changes:`

277	dpurdie	4191
279	dpurdie	4192	`JATS will automatically filter out target platforms that cannot be built`
		4193	`on the users machine. ie: It will not try to build Solaris targets on a`
		4194	`Windows machine. Thus, under the new scheme a Windows GBE_BUILDFILTER need`
281	dpurdie	4195	`not contain '!SOLARIS'`
279	dpurdie	4196
		4197	`This greatly simplifies the creation of GBE_BUILDFILTER as it does not`

		4215	`Added build, make, clean, clobber commands`

		4246
		4247	`Both changes will simplify the use of this command within the escrow`

		5182	`* Jats Tool: CCbc2`
		5183	`Added utility to use BeyondCompare (BC2) to compare files in two`

		5186	`process.`
		5187
		5188	`Requires BeyondCompare to be installed in its default location.`

		5244	`Added a run-time test for the presence of the required toolset`
		5245	`This will report an error if the required WINCE toolset has not been`

		5386	`Major changes:`
		5387
		5388	`Minor changes:`
		5389	`PackageLib directive`
		5390	`The construct "PackageLib( '*', @SHLIBS, @LIBS );" now works as expected.`
		5391	`Packaging multiple libraries and shared libraries works as expected.`
		5392	`Packaging multiple shared libraries works as expected.`
		5393
		5394	`MakefileGenerate directive`
		5395	`This directive should only be called once. JATS will now generate a warning,`
		5396	`and not produce an erroneous, if the directive is invoked more than once.`
		5397
		5398	`Multiple Parent detection`
		5399	`A makefile.pl that is invoked from more than one other makefile.pl, or the`
		5400	`build.pl, is counted as having multiple parents. This condition is`
		5401	`normally treated as an error. When run by the Auto Built Tool, this`
		5402	`condition will be treated as a warning.`
		5403
		5404	`Solaris Toolset`
		5405	`Added option '--WithMisalign' to the SharedLib directive.`
		5406	`When used in conjunction with the 'misalign' CompleOption this option will`
		5407	`cause a machine specific object file (misalign.o) to be included in the`
		5408	`link.`
		5409
		5410	`Programs that are created with 'misalign' will automatically include the`
		5411	`misalign.o object file. The fact that shared libraries do not may be an`
		5412	`indication that this is a bad thing to do.`
		5413
		5414	`Make and generation of subdirectories`
		5415	`Fixed an issue which caused created directories to have a bad timestamp.`
		5416	`This could result in multiple attempts to generate the source dependency`

		5418
		5419	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5420	`Version: 2.71.0.cr Released: 10-Oct-07`
		5421	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5422	`Major changes:`
		5423	`Makefile generation and make recursion`
		5424	`Extensive changes to the makefiles that are generated by JATS and method by`
		5425	`which JATS recuses through subdirectories during a build.`
		5426
		5427	`Summary of changes:`
		5428	`- Removed the use of 'make' to perform recursion over subdirectories`
		5429	`and platforms. This has been replaced by a JATS program that performs`
		5430	`the same task - only a great deal faster and with a greater scope for`
		5431	`flexibility.`
		5432
		5433	`The user interface remains identical: jats make ....`
		5434
		5435	`- Replaced the generated 'Makefile' with 'Makefile.gbe'. This is a text`
		5436	`file that provides sufficient information to allow JATS to locate the`
		5437	`interface directory and associated build information.`
		5438
		5439	`- Significant speed up in determining the need to rebuild a makefile.`
		5440	`On a large package this has been reduced from 30+ seconds to less`
		5441	`than one second.`
		5442
		5443	`- Significant speed up of large recursive builds through intelligent`
		5444	`building of the 'make_init' target. This is only processed once for`
		5445	`each platform type. Previously it was processed in each and every`
		5446	`makefile. This make target is used, internally, to perform sanity`
		5447	`testing of the compiler environment and to display the name of the`
		5448	`toolset. It is an expensive operation.`
		5449
		5450	`- Intelligent speed up of large recursive through better mechanism`
		5451	`for creating required directories. These are now created on the fly,`
		5452	`rather than via a slow recursive pass though all makefiles.`
		5453
		5454	`- Better makefile rebuilding`
		5455	`Makefiles can be rebuilt on the fly. The previous system was prone to`
		5456	`detecting that makefiles needs to be re-built, but then not re-`
		5457	`building them.`
		5458
		5459	`- Detection of build file changes`
		5460	`The make process will detect that the build file has been modified`
		5461	`and that the component has not been rebuilt. This is a warning. It`
		5462	`does not prevent the 'make' operation.`
		5463
		5464	`- Quieter make output`
		5465	`The 'Nothing to be done' message has been disabled.`
		5466
		5467
		5468	`Minor changes:`
		5469	`MakeAnt Directive`
		5470	`Allows ANT_HOME to be a path with spaces. ie: c:\Program Files\apache-ant-1.6.5`
		5471
		5472	`JATS command "debug" and "prod"`
		5473	`These now handle make arguments and options correctly. Thus the command:`
		5474	`jats prod WIN32 OPTIONS=args`
		5475	`Will correctly do a production build for WIN32 with command execution`
		5476	`display. Before, the system would attempt to process prod_OPTIONS=args.`
		5477
		5478	`CSHARP toolset`
		5479	`Correctly detect missing compiler directories`

		5573	`Minor changes:`
		5574	`* Reverted changes made in JATS_2.68.1 to the library search path`
		5575	`Although the search order is broken, we will need to live with it.`
		5576
		5577	`Addressed the search order of /usr/lib under Solaris by adding a new`

		5580
		5581	`For the record, the search order for header files and libraries is:`

		5606	`Major changes:`
		5607
		5608	`Minor changes:`
		5609	`* Solaris Toolset`

		5612
		5613	`* RunTest operation`

		5619	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5620	`Version: JATS_2.68.0 Released: 20-Aug-07`
		5621	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5622	`Major changes:`
		5623	`* Trap use of uncontrolled versions of 'ant' and the Java Compiler (javac)`
		5624
		5625	`It was discovered that a few old makefile.pl's where invoking ant and`
		5626	`javac directly in order to build small Java components. This was`
		5627	`normally being done in the guise of the WIN32 target. These packages`
		5628	`were making assumptions about the version of Java on the users search`
		5629	`path.`
		5630
		5631	`JATS can invoke ANT and build Java based components using the MakeAnt`
		5632	`directive and the JAVA platform. This method is controlled and`
		5633	`reproducible.`
		5634
		5635	`This release provides changes such that these packages will not build.`
		5636	`This is better than building incorrectly.`
		5637
		5638	`There are several aspects to the change`
		5639	`1) JATS provides binaries (ant and javac) with an error message. If`
		5640	`the user invoked ant/javac in a manner that involves searching the`
		5641	`PATH then these will be used and report an error.`
		5642
		5643	`2) A special command (jats abt) can be used to start up the Auto Build`
		5644	`Tool in a manner that does not alter the PATH seen by the utilities.`
		5645	`Moreover it does not alter the JAVA_HOME seen by the build. This is`
		5646	`controlled separately.`
		5647
		5648	`Minor changes:`
		5649	`* Sanitize the PATH environment variable`
		5650	`Ensure the JATS bin directory is the first directory searched`
		5651	`Remove duplicates`
		5652	`Place non-existent components at the end of the PATH`
		5653
		5654	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5655	`Version: JATS_2.67.1 Released: 17-Aug-07`
		5656	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5657	`Major changes:`
		5658
		5659	`Minor changes:`
		5660	`* Makefile sanity test`
		5661	`Added a test to ensure that makefiles created on a machine of one type are`
		5662	`not then run on a machine of a different type.`
		5663
		5664	`This will prevent files created on solaris-sparc being used on a solaris-`
		5665	`x86 machine.`
		5666
		5667	`* Correct bug in RunTest`
		5668	`RunTest now extends the PATH to include the local bin directory`

		5670	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5671	`Version: JATS_2.67.0 Released: 13-Aug-07`
		5672	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5673	`Major changes:`
		5674	`* RunTest directive`
		5675	`Added support for running tests within the NUNIT test framework for the`
		5676	`CSHARP target. In the process a generalized mechanism for accessing`
		5677	`toolset specific test frameworks has been added.`
		5678
		5679	`Changes to the directive to support a FrameWork.`
		5680	`The use of a test FrameWork is signaled with the option`
		5681	`--FrameWork=<name> If this is present then the raw name of the program`
		5682	`under test will be passed to the framework. program.`
		5683
		5684	`If a FrameWork is in use, then JATS will invoke the specified framework`
		5685	`builder within the current toolset.`
		5686
		5687	`When a framework is in place JATS will pass arguments of the form:`
		5688	`'--Tag=Text' to the FrameWork. Other options are processed as normal.`
		5689
		5690	`With in the Nunit FrameWork the program under test will be a DLL Nunit`
		5691	`will only operate on a DLL. The DLL must have been created by the makefile`
		5692	`containing the RunTest directive.`
		5693
		5694	`The Nunit Framework supports the following options:`
		5695	`--Uses=<Name>[,SubOption]+`
		5696
		5697	`This option specifies other DLLs that are used by the TestDLL. They will`
		5698	`be copied in to the test directory, and may be sourced from an external`
		5699	`package or the components 'local' lib directory.`
		5700
		5701	`SubOptions available to The --Uses directive are:`
		5702	`--NonJats This is not a JATS built library. It will not have a`
		5703	`P or D suffix.`
		5704	`--Jats (Default) This is a JATS built library. JATS will`
		5705	`select the correct library type for this build.`
		5706
		5707	`Minor changes:`
		5708	`* New Cache cleanup mechanism`
		5709	`When a package is consumed from the 'cache' a flag is updated within`
		5710	`the cache. The cache aging routines use this file in preference to`
		5711	`the descpkg file, thus it will prevent the aging of packages that are`
		5712	`frequently used. The aging policy can be made more aggressive.`
		5713
		5714	`* Save Build Utility`
		5715	`This utility is used by the Auto Build System to save the 'build.pl' file`
		5716	`used in a ripple build.`
		5717
		5718	`The utility has been enhanced to detect a reserved checkout of the`
		5719	`build.pl. The checkout will be changed to unreserved - if possible.`
		5720
		5721	`* Release Utility`
		5722	`The 'jats release' command will now unlock any labels that it locked`
		5723	`when an error is encountered.`
		5724
		5725	`This simplifies the 'release' process as the developers label will be`
		5726	`unlocked if a build error occurs.`
		5727
		5728	`* Jats caching local copy of itself`
		5729	`Fixed a bug which resulted in an "Use of individualized value" message`
		5730	`being displayed a large number of times during the file transfer process.`
		5731
		5732	`* Minor extension to allow plug-in directives to perform a processing step`
		5733	`before the makefiles are created.`
		5734
		5735	`* TestProg directive`
		5736	`TestProg's are now built in exactly the same manner as Progs`
		5737
		5738	`* Correct problem introduced in 2.66.1 with packaging of files with`
		5739	`a 'space' or '$' in the file name.`

		5750	`DEVLINUX`
		5751	`LMOS_DEVLINUX`
		5752

		5755	`transfer, after having problems the 'cp.exe' provided by JATS.`
		5756
		5757	`Minor changes:`

		5762	`Correct problem with filename that start with "n" as in .\not_nice.cs`
		5763
		5764	`Create resource files with Fully Qualified Names derived from the .resx`
		5765	`and .cs files.`
		5766
		5767	`Handle Strong Key Names and creates wrappers to provide do the right`
		5768	`thing.`
		5769
		5770	`* Microtec ColdFire compiler`
		5771	`Further attempts to get the compiler to place all of its temp files in a`
		5772	`local directory. The compiler uses a large number of EnVars to control`
		5773	`were it places temp files.`
		5774
		5775	`Underlying problem is random compiler failures on big builds. Suspected`
		5776	`interaction with other builds.`
		5777
		5778	`* Release utility command`
		5779	`Added a -tag=name option to allow the Auto Build Tools to create`
		5780	`multiple instances of a static view. The tag is used to provide a unique`
		5781	`component in the clearcase tag name.`

		5827	`Version: JATS_2.65.2 Released: 06-Jun-07`
		5828	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5829	`Major changes:`
		5830
		5831	`Minor changes:`
		5832	`* WINCE Support`
		5833	`Added WCEPSION_500 support. The WINCE target now includes this target.`
		5834
		5835	`* Removed the following targets`
		5836	`TP5600`
		5837	`TP5600_ARM9TDMI`
		5838	`TP5600_EMU`
		5839	`LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI`
		5840	`LMOS_TP5600_EMU`
		5841
		5842	`* Deployment`
		5843	`Simplify access to build information during deployment`
		5844
		5845	`* build.pl`
		5846	`Better error check on a packages version number.`
		5847
		5848	`The --forcebuildpkg has been extended to copy files on a Unix system, rather`
		5849	`than to use symlinks. This simplifies remote builds.`
		5850
		5851	`* Tool: gen_msprojects`
		5852	`Has been extended to create either a Debug build (default), or a Production`
		5853	`build.`
		5854
		5855	`Eg: jats etool gen_msprojects -prod`
		5856
		5857	`* Tool: escrow`
		5858	`New features`
		5859	`Given an rtag_id, report determine packages that are in the 'release' but`
		5860	`are not in the SBOM.`
		5861
		5862	`Prune "patch" package versions.`
		5863
		5864	`Specify packages to be ignored.`
		5865
		5866
		5867	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5868	`Version: JATS_2.65.1 Released: 30-May-07`
		5869	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5870	`Major changes:`
		5871	`* Provided a mechanism by which JATS makefile.pl directives can be extended`
		5872	`through modules provided by external packages. This will be used to reduce`
		5873	`the dependancy on JATS of various packaging processes.`
		5874
		5875	`* GenerateFiles`
		5876	`Added the options:`
		5877	`--UnknownPreq - Will force the recipe to be run every time`
		5878	`the generated files are required. May be used`
		5879	`when the dependancies are too complex to`
		5880	`describe. ie: Entire directory tree.`
		5881
		5882	`--AutoGenerate - Will not force the recipe to be run during the`
		5883	`'generate' phase, unless the recipe generates`
		5884	`source files. Allows recipes to be run very`
		5885	`late. ie: when the dependent files are actually`
		5886	`required.`
		5887
		5888
		5889	`Minor changes:`
		5890	`* GenerateFile directive`
		5891	`Added --Var(BuildRoot)`
		5892
		5893	`* GCC Toolset`
		5894	`Creating Shared Libaries with a 'Def' file. The library is now dependent`
		5895	`on the Def file, such that changes to the Def file will cause the library to`
		5896	`be rebuilt.`
		5897
		5898	`* MakeAnt and MakeProject directives`
		5899	`Preserve the order in which projects are built.`
		5900
		5901	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5902	`Version: JATS_2.65.0 Released: 16-May-07`
		5903	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5904	`Major changes:`
		5905	`* Access to Release Manager and Deployment Manager databases`
		5906	`The database location, user and password have been made configurable via`
		5907	`environment variables.`
		5908
		5909	`Reason: The Release Manager and Deployment Manager databases are being`
		5910	`moved.`
		5911
		5912	`This will affect users that:`
		5913	`1) Use tools that access RM or DM`
		5914	`Some tools that build deployable packages`
		5915
		5916	`2) Use the ABT system`
		5917	`The buildadm user, and the ABT scripts will be modified to provide`
		5918	`the required configuration`
		5919
		5920	`If you need to use tools that access RM or DM, outside of the ABT scripts on`
		5921	`the build machine then you will need to add the following environment`
		5922	`definitions to your .profile_bash, or jats.bat.`
		5923	`Windows`
		5924	`set GBE_RM_LOCATION=jdbc:oracle:thin:@auperaora03:1521:RELEASEM`
5909	dpurdie	5925	`set GBE_RM_USERNAME=RM_READONLY`
		5926	`set GBE_RM_PASSWORD=RM_READONLY`
5710	dpurdie	5927	`set GBE_RM_URL=http://bms:8002/ManagerSuite/Release_Manager`
227	dpurdie	5928	`set GBE_DM_LOCATION=%GBE_DM_LOCATION%`
5909	dpurdie	5929	`set GBE_DM_USERNAME=DM_READONLY`
		5930	`set GBE_DM_PASSWORD=DM_READONLY`
5710	dpurdie	5931	`set GBE_DM_URL=http://bms:8002/ManagerSuite/Deployment_Manager`
227	dpurdie	5932	`Note: GBE_RM_LOCATION will change in the near future.`
		5933
		5934
		5935	`* New build platforms`
		5936	`ARM9TDMI - To replace TP5600_ARM9TDMI`
		5937	`LINUX_EMU - To replace TP5600_EMU`
		5938
		5939	`LMOS_ARM9TDMI - To replace LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI`
		5940	`LMOS_LINUX_EMU - To replace LMOS_TP5600_EMU`
		5941
		5942	`DEVLINUX - To replace TP5600`
		5943	`LMOS_DEVLINUX - To replace LMOS_TP5600`
		5944	`LMOS - New platform that expands to known LMOS targets:`
		5945	`LMOS_ARM9TDMI, LMOS_LINUX_EMU, LMOS_WIN32`
		5946
		5947	`Many of these targets are designed to replace the badly named platforms`
		5948	`of TP5600_ARM9TDMI and TP5600_EMU. These will be removed in a future`
		5949	`release.`
		5950
		5951	`The GBE_BUILDFILTER for linux boxes may need to be changed to`
		5952	`LINUX_I386 ARM9TDMI LINUX_EMU LMOS_ARM9TDMI LMOS_LINUX_EMU`
		5953
		5954	`The TP5600* targets should be removed to make it obvious that these packages`
		5955	`need to be converted.`
		5956
		5957	`* Building Linux Device Drivers`
		5958	`The hard-coded path to the Kernel Headers has been removed.`
		5959	`Linux Drivers must be built with a suitable package to provide`
		5960	`the kernel headers. This allows multiple versions of the linux kernel to be`
		5961	`used for different targets platforms.`
		5962
		5963	`* Sandbox support`
		5964	`Embryonic support for building multiple packages in a common sandbox`
		5965	`Will remain undocumented until fully implemented.`
		5966
		5967	`New command: jats sandbox ...`

		5971
		5972	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5973	`Version: JATS_2.64.1 Released: 03-May-07`
		5974	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		5975	`Major changes:`
		5976	`* MakeAnt directive`
		5977	`Added options to allow the and project to unit tests.`
		5978
		5979	`New options`
		5980	`--AutoTest=<target> # Run as Automated unit test`
		5981	`--UnitTest=<target> # Run as Unit test`
		5982
		5983	`This will invoke the ant build file, with the specified target, during the`
		5984	`run_unit_tests phase.`
		5985
		5986	`* Sandbox support`
		5987	`Embryonic support for building multiple packages in a common sandbox`
		5988	`Will remain undocumented until fully implemented`
		5989
		5990	`Minor changes:`
		5991	`* jats build`
		5992	`Use platform configuration information to prune platforms from the list of`
		5993	`platforms that will be 'built'.`
		5994
		5995	`This simplies the construction of a GBE_BUILDFILTER`
		5996
		5997	`This information is not available for all supported platforms, but is`
		5998	`available for psuedo platforms that transform into machine specific`
		5999	`platforms. These include SOLARIS, LINUX, TP5600 and LMOS_TP5600`
		6000
		6001	`* AVR_IAR Toolset`
		6002	`Clean up 9 files that may be created by the USB license dongle.`
		6003
		6004	`* JATS.BAT`
		6005	`Example file now provides a default GBE_DPKG definition that assumes that`
		6006	`the "V" drive is mapped to \\auperaunx26\devl. This allows access to both`
		6007	`the dpkg_acrhive and the deploy_archive with the one mapping.`
		6008
		6009	`* jats label`
		6010	`Correct problem when locking a label in a specified VOB`
		6011
		6012	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6013	`Version: JATS_2.64.0 Released: 16-Apr-07`
		6014	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6015	`Major changes:`
		6016	`* New build platform:`
		6017	`LMOS_TP5600`
		6018	`LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI`
		6019	`LMOS_TP5600_EMU`
		6020
		6021	`LMOS_TP5600 is a tag that will be expanded to the entire family of LMOS_TP5600`
		6022	`supported targets. A common alias of LMOS_T5600 will be created to`
		6023	`describe the group of platforms.`
		6024
		6025	`LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI and LMOS_TP5600_EMU`
		6026	`These are LMOS based targets. The 'lmos' package must be used in order to`
		6027	`build these targets.`
		6028
		6029	`The LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI can use components from the TP5600_ARM9TDMI,`
		6030	`where no LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI components are provided.`
		6031
		6032	`The LMOS_TP5600_EMU can use components from the TP5600_EMU,`
		6033	`where no LMOS_TP5600_EMU components are provided.`
		6034
		6035	`* New build platform: WINCE`
		6036	`This is a tag that will be expanded to all the known WINCE targets.`
		6037	`Use of this platform will simplify the creation of components for`
		6038	`consumption on all WINCE machines.`
		6039
		6040	`The current list of WINCE targets is:`
		6041	`WCEIT3000`
		6042	`WCEPA961`
		6043	`WCEPA962`
		6044	`WCEPCM7220`
		6045	`WCEPSION_420`
		6046	`WCEPSPC_arm`
		6047	`WCEPSPC_emu`
		6048	`WCEX86A420`
		6049	`WCEX86A500`
		6050	`WCEX86A500_SOM4455`
		6051
		6052	`The WINCE targets actually built will be affected by GBE_BUILDFILTER.`
		6053
		6054	`* JATS makefile.pl`
		6055	`The package descriptor file, 'descpkg', will be packaged in all makefiles`
		6056	`that contain packaging directives.`
		6057
		6058	`There is now no need to explicitly package the 'descpkg' file, except in`
		6059	`very unusual configurations.`
		6060
		6061	`Minor changes:`
		6062	`* Directive: PackageFile`
		6063	`Generate a warning if the source file name does not confirm to good naming`
		6064	`conventions. The filename must not start with a '-' and must not contain`
		6065	`an '='.`
		6066
		6067	`Normally the result of an error in the directive. ie: "-Subdir=etc", instead`
		6068	`of "--Subdir=etc".`
		6069
		6070	`* JATS Internal utility: cmdfile`
		6071	`Updated Linux and Solaris targets with a version of the cmdfile that`
		6072	`provides a better error message for libraries that cannot be found.`
		6073
		6074	`This version will display the library search path with one item per line,`
		6075	`rather than all items on one, very long, line.`
		6076
		6077	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6078	`Version: JATS_2.63.0 Released: 5-Apr-07`
		6079	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6080	`Major changes:`
		6081
		6082	`* JATS release command`
		6083	`Modified the configuration spec generated when a branching rule is`
		6084	`specified. The change will ensure that directories are not branched.`
		6085
		6086	`Rules are:`
		6087	`Modify a file: File will branch`
		6088	`Adding a file: Containing directory will not branch`
		6089	`File will be placed on a branch`
		6090	`Add a directory: Containing directory will not branch`
		6091	`New directory will branch`
		6092
		6093	`Minor changes:`
		6094	`* JATS release command`
		6095	`Added -noprefex option to allow the creation of a view directory without the`
		6096	`user name being prefixed to it. This is useful in creating an escrow view.`
		6097
		6098	`* JATS label command`
		6099	`Detect and report parent directories that are checkedout when a label`
		6100	`is applied. Previously these had gone unreported.`
		6101
		6102	`* JATS make`
		6103	`Undo previous change to preserve symbolic links while Packaging and`
		6104	`Installing files. A problem was encountered when a file from a package`
		6105	`was re-packaged.`
		6106
		6107	`* JATS escrow`
		6108	`Added a tool to generate information for creating an escrow drop.`
		6109	`Use jats escrow -help for details`
		6110
		6111	`* makefile.pl directive: MakeAnt`
		6112	`This directive will create parameters to specify the location of external java`
		6113	`packages that have been referenced via a LinkPkgArchive directive.`
		6114
		6115	`This allows the build.xml to contruct a CLASSPATH to access JAR files in`
		6116	`packages, without the overhead of copying the entire package into the`
		6117	`interface directory.`
		6118
		6119	`* build.pl directive: BuildPkgArchive`
		6120	`Modified the processing of 'jar' directories.`
		6121	`Directories of the form 'jar.<target>' will be transferred into the 'jar'`
		6122	`directory as seen by the package.`
		6123
		6124	`Intended use: Deployment of oraclient for Solaris 10`
		6125
		6126	`* JAVA 6`
		6127	`JATS now supports all versions of Java through the use of JAVA_HOME_X_Y`
		6128	`environment variables. Where X andY specify the version of JAVA.`
		6129
		6130	`The jats.bat and jats.sh example files only provide indication of 1.4, 1.5`
		6131	`and 1.6 support, but all versions are now supported.`
		6132
		6133	`The "jats vars -v" command will display all JAVA_HOME environment variables`
		6134
		6135	`* Jats command: vars`
		6136	`Extended to show a "*" for EnvVars that do not address a valid directory`
		6137	`These indicate potential problems.`
		6138
		6139	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6140	`Version: JATS_2.62.4 Released: 20-Mar-07`
		6141	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6142	`Major changes:`
		6143	`* JATS create_dpkg + packageing shared libraries (Unix)`
		6144	`When a shared library is created a simple symbolic link to the versioned`
		6145	`libarry is also created.`
		6146
		6147	`Previous versions of JATS would replace the symbolic link with a physical`
		6148	`copy of the file. The effect of this is that when the shared libaries is`
		6149	`'Installed', 'Packaged' and transferred into dpkg_archive there are two`
		6150	`files, instead of one file and one link to the file (in the same directory)`
		6151	`The Solaris shared libraries can be quite large, due to the debug`
		6152	`information contained within the file.`
		6153
		6154	`This version of JATS will preserve symbolic links when 'Installing',`
		6155	`'Packaging' and transferring to dpkg_archive.`
		6156
		6157	`The advantage of this will be significant reduction in disk space used`
		6158	`within the build environment and dpkg_archive.`
		6159
		6160	`* Building Perl Modules`
		6161	`Modified the process to prevent the module builder attempting to modify the`
		6162	`documentation on the build machine.`
		6163
		6164	`Integrated the 'jats clean' operation.`
		6165
		6166	`Minor changes:`
		6167	`* jats create_dpkg`
		6168	`Added an option to create a built.generic file`
		6169	`This is only used by the Automated Built Tools.`
		6170
		6171	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6172	`Version: JATS_2.62.3 Released: 28-Feb-07`
		6173	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6174	`Major changes:`
		6175	`* JATS JAVA build target`
		6176	`The default behaviour of the JAVA build target has changed such that the`
		6177	`default version of JAVA used will be 1.4.`
		6178
		6179	`Previous behaviour was to use whichever version was specified by the EnvVar`
		6180	`JAVA_HOME. This was not controlled, thus the build was not controlled.`
		6181	`Problems occur when using the new AutoBuildTool as it uses Java 1.5 and this`
		6182	`is then picked up as the default version.`
		6183
		6184	`If a version, other than 1.4, is required then specify it within the`
		6185	`build.pl file.`
		6186
		6187	`Minor changes:`
		6188	`* jats release`
		6189	`Ensure that the 'cleartool' command can be found in the users PATH`
		6190	`Issue an error if it cannot be found.`
		6191	`This error indicates bad DevEnv setup`
		6192
		6193	`Added facility to create a view based on a config_spec, instead of a label.`
		6194	`Such a view cannot be used to create a release. It is intended to simplify`
		6195	`the creation of simple static views. The name of view is, by default,`
		6196	`based on the name of the config spec. Use the -view=name option to change`
		6197	`the name of the view.`
		6198
		6199	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		6200	`Added new --Vars() to allow packaging of JATS plugin tools.`
		6201
		6202	`* MOS Toolset`
		6203	`When using MOS fast intermodule calls the optimizer will preload commonly`
		6204	`used memory addresses into a register BEFORE the GDP has been correctly set`
		6205	`up. Use the following option to suppress this optimization`
		6206
		6207	`Added: CompileOptions ('*', 'NoGlobalOptimization' );`
		6208
		6209
		6210	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6211	`Version: JATS_2.62.2 Released: 15-Feb-07`
		6212	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6213	`Major changes:`
		6214
		6215	`Minor changes:`
		6216	`* JATS environment`
		6217	`Ensure that the true path of the Perl executable is present in the PATH`
		6218	`environment variable. This allows build tool access to various perl utilities`
		6219	`that are located in the Perl bin directory.`
		6220
		6221	`Resolves issues in locating utilities such as pod2html`
		6222
		6223	`* Use of GENERIC platforms`
		6224	`Report an error if a GENERIC platform is mixed with any other platform`
		6225	`specifier. GENERIC is used for packages that build on all machines because`
		6226	`they do not use a compiler or linker. They simply contains files that need`
		6227	`to be packaged.`
		6228
		6229	`* Generated makefiles`
		6230	`Solaris and Linux: Ensure that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is exported if it is used.`
		6231
		6232	`* Generating MOS THX files`
		6233	`Added option --BinaryImage to the SharedLib directive used to create MOS THX`
		6234	`files. This option will create a binary image (.bin) instead of a .thx file.`
		6235	`This is being used in the creation of BR Applets.`
		6236
		6237	`SharedLib ( 'MOS', "xxx", @OBJS, "--Rel=xxx.rel", "--BinaryImage" );`
		6238
		6239	`* JATS release`
		6240	`Correct the operation of the -path option under Unix`
		6241
		6242	`* JATS extract`
		6243	`New JATS command. This is the same as 'jats release -extract'`
		6244
		6245	`* JATS Toolset`
		6246	`Added support for the WinCe PSION (WCEPSION_420)`
		6247	`This is a armv4i device using 4.20 of the WCE SDK`
		6248
		6249
		6250	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6251	`Version: JATS_2.62.1 Released: 18-Jan-07`
		6252	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6253	`Major changes:`
		6254
		6255	`Minor changes:`
		6256	`* jats label`
		6257	`Added a -vob=name option`
		6258	`This allwos the label utility to create, lock, unlock, rename and delete`
		6259	`labels without the user actually being located within the VOB. This option`
		6260	`cannot be used in conjunction with operations that place labels on files.`
		6261	`It can only be used for operations that manipulate the label.`
		6262
		6263	`Added a -user=name option`
		6264	`This extends the operation of the -mine operation to change ownership of the`
		6265	`label to the named user.`
		6266
		6267	`* jats release`
		6268	`Displays the path to the view and the build file in a user friendly manner`
		6269	`Under Windows it uses \, unless running under cygwin.`
		6270
		6271	`* JATS build.pl`
		6272	`BuildProduct supports the --Uses=xxxx construct on a per-target basis.`
		6273	`ie:`
		6274	`BuildProduct ('TP5', 'LMOS_TP5600_EMU', 'LMOS_TP5600_ARM9TDMI,--Uses=TP5600_ARM9TDMI');`

		6277	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6278	`Version: JATS_2.62.0 Released: 22-Dec-06`
		6279	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6280	`Major changes:`
		6281	`* GenerateFiles and RunTest directives`
		6282	`These directives have been extended to allow a large number of makefile`
		6283	`values to be added to the command lines,without resorting to knowledge of`
		6284	`the makefile internals. ie:`
		6285	`--Var(BuildName)`
		6286	`will be expanded to (hen building MyPackage)`
		6287	`-BuildName=MyPackage`
		6288
		6289	`The complete list of Variables is provided in the JATS manual.`
		6290
		6291	`* GenerateFiles`
		6292	`Added a --Clean option to allow tools to be invoked in the 'clean' phase`
		6293	`This allows external scripts to cleanup.`
		6294
		6295	`* BuildPlatforms`
		6296	`Restored operation of the --Uses option`
		6297
		6298	`Minor changes:`
		6299	`* GCC Toolset`
		6300	`Exports path to compiler. Used by scripts to build packages`
		6301
		6302	`Internal changes:`
		6303	`* GenerateFiles`
		6304	`Maintains the arguments in an array for simpler processing.`
		6305
		6306	`--Shell is now processed by the 'make' shell rather then invoking an`
		6307	`external shell. It will be the same shell, just easier to setup.`
		6308
		6309
		6310	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6311	`Version: JATS_2.61.3 Released: 14-Dec-06`
		6312	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6313	`Major changes:`
		6314	`* Caching JATS`
		6315	`Added a mechanism whereby JATS can cache a copy of itself on the users local`
		6316	`drive. This is applicable to windows.`
		6317
		6318	`This mechanism will allow a user to address JATS via the soft-links in`
		6319	`dpkg_archive and pick up the current version of JATS without the penalty of`
		6320	`then using JATS across a slow(network) link.`
		6321
		6322	`The EnvVar GBE_CACHE_JATS controls the operation of this feature.`
		6323	`Set GBE_CACHE_JATS to one to enable the operation, but it will only be`
		6324	`effective if JATS is being run from GBE_DPKG in the first place.`
		6325
		6326	`Use: Build Machines and Windows Users`
		6327
		6328	`Minor changes:`
		6329	`* Build directive: BuildAlias with --Target option`
		6330	`Corrected a problem when the target name is a expanded platform name (ie:`
		6331	`TP5600) that prevent correct expansion.`
		6332
		6333	`* jats build`
		6334	`If the user has not configured a cache, then do not attempt to cache`
		6335	`packages. This will remove an annoying warning message for each package`
		6336	`processed by the build.`
		6337
		6338	`* jats build`
		6339	`Modified the error messages generated when JATS fails to create the`
		6340	`makefiles. The previous system would report failures while creating`
		6341	`makefiles and, at the end of the process, it would generate a large error`
		6342	`message to indicate the failure. This large message diverted the users`
		6343	`from reading the other error messages resulting in confusion.`
		6344
		6345	`* PackageFile, PackageLib, PackageProg and PackageHdr`
		6346	`Detect and report as an error use of the --Dir=<Path> option where the`
		6347	`Path is not specified.`
		6348
		6349	`Most instances of this error will be where the option has been mis-used in`
		6350	`conjunction with a package.pl file, or during transition from using a`
		6351	`package.pl file. That change is detects errors where the user has specified`
		6352	`--Dir=$Pinc`
		6353	`but $Pinc is not defined.`
		6354
		6355	`* Purify and Purecov under Windows`
		6356	`Changes to correct the operation of Rational's tools when used on the`
		6357	`Windows platform.`
		6358
		6359	`- OPTIONS=purecov`
		6360	`Forces the link operations to generate the relocation table required`
		6361	`by 'purecov.`
		6362
		6363	`Does not attempt to use purecov in the compiler tool chain`
		6364	`This is required under Solaris, but not Windows`
		6365
		6366	`- OPTIONS=purify`
		6367	`Does not attempt to use purecov in the compiler tool chain`
		6368	`This is required under Solaris, but not Windows.`
		6369	`Under WIndows this option does nothing.`

		6374	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6375	`Major changes:`
		6376	`* makefile.pl directive Platform`
		6377	`This directive has been expanded to allow for the negation operation`
		6378	`Example:`
		6379	`Platform ('!MOSCF');`
		6380	`Process makefile for all targets other than MOSCF`
		6381	`This is the same as Platform ('*', '!MOSCF');`
		6382
		6383	`Excluded platform will be processed after included platforms have`
		6384	`been determined.`
		6385
		6386	`Minor changes:`
		6387	`* Added the ScanList directive.`
		6388	`This directive allows a list of files within an external package to be`
		6389	`located at build-time.`
		6390
		6391	`* Unix based systems`
		6392	`If the EnvVar LD_LIBRARY_PATH was undefined, then a warning would be`
		6393	`generated by make under some conditions. The warning has been removed.`
		6394
		6395	`* MakeLinuxDriver`
		6396	`Added a --Define=text option to allow "defines" to be passed to the`
		6397	`driver being built.`
		6398

		6427	`Added directive: MakeLinuxDriver to build and Linux Device Driver.`
		6428
		6429	`GenerateFiles.`
		6430	`Added option: --NoGenerate to indicate that the directive does`
		6431	`not generate any tangible results. The command will`
		6432	`be run on every invocation.`
		6433
		6434
		6435	`Minor changes:`

		6438
		6439	`* GCC Toolset (Used to build Linux)`
		6440	`Added options to allow the generation of statically linked programs.`
		6441	`There are two mechanism:`
		6442
		6443	`Globally within the makefile.pl, or if applied in the common makefile.pl`
		6444	`the option can apply to all programs being built.`
		6445
		6446	`CompileOptions ( 'platform', 'StaticProgs' ); - Generate static programs`
		6447	`CompileOptions ( 'platform', 'No_StaticProgs' ); - Default`
		6448
		6449	`Within the Prog directive, the following options will override the global`
		6450	`default.`
		6451	`--Static - Create a statically linked program`

		6457	`Major changes:`
		6458	`* SunWorks Toolset`
		6459	`Better determination of the location of the SunWorks compiler and library`
		6460	`Does not use an environment variable to locate compiler libraries`

		6479	`Extended the cross compilers that can be handled by the toolset`
		6480	Removed the use of `uname`.
		6481
		6482	`* Added platforms`
		6483	`TP5600 ( Expands to TP5600_ARM9TDMI and TP5600_EMU )`
		6484	`TP5600_ARM9TDMI`
		6485	`TP5600_EMU`

		6499	`similar, but more pronounced, issue.`
		6500
		6501	`* Atmel toolset (DEVI-031788)`

		6602
		6603	`Minor changes:`
		6604	`* WIN32 and WINCE toolsets`
		6605	`SharedLib operation. Added an option to allow the creation of a 'stub'`

		6642	`Initial release.`
		6643
		6644	`* Packaging directives`

		6646	`a directory known to all platforms being built for a common OS.`
		6647
		6648	`Currently this is only supported to target platforms based on`
		6649	`SOLARIS`
		6650	`WIN32`
		6651
		6652	`* Removal of support for badly formed packages`
		6653	`As of this release libraries that exist in the <packagename>/lib directory`
		6654	`will not be available to JATS. These libraries are in the incorrect`
		6655	`directory. They MUST be in a directory that indicates the intended purpose`
		6656	`of the library. A .so library cannot be used on all machines ( linux,`
		6657	`solaris-sparc, solaris-amd ... ).`
		6658
		6659	`* Build Platform target name expansion facility`
		6660	`The build targets of SOLARIS and LINUX are seen as expandable names. They`
		6661	`will be expanded to suitable targets - depending on the host machine .`
		6662
		6663

		6669	`* Utility: JATS RELEASE`
		6670	`Added a -root=dirname to allow the user to place the created view at a given`
		6671	`location`
		6672
		6673	`Added GBE_VIEWBASE to provide a globally configured mechanism for`
		6674	`controlling the view location. Performs the same job as -root=xxxx`
		6675
		6676	`* Utility genrc`
		6677	`Added the company name to the copyright string`
		6678
		6679	`* Utility: jats_save_build`
		6680	`Added option: -new`
		6681	`This option forces the saved file only a new branch.`
		6682	`The option can be used to save a build.pl file onto a new project-specific`
		6683	`branch. Useful when branching an entire release.`
		6684
		6685	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6686	`Added options to allow project suffixes to be replaced.`
		6687	`Use: Convert a .syd project to a .bej project.`
		6688
		6689	`* Deprecated features: package.pl and tree.dir`
		6690	`These two build features are being deprecated. They are not suitable for`
		6691	`migration to other SOLARIS based platforms.`
		6692
		6693	`The Package directives provide sufficient power to replace the package.pl`
		6694	`features - in a uniform manner.`
		6695
		6696
		6697	`Internal Changes:`
		6698	`* Major rework of the JATS BuildPlatform, BuildAlias an BuildProducts`
		6699	`directives, together with the mechanism used to describe the platform builds.`
		6700
		6701	`Introduced a CFG/<PLATFORM>.CFG file to provide:`
		6702	`1) Platform information available at build time`
		6703	`2) Dynamic platform names`
		6704
		6705	`* Major rework of the 'SOLARIS' platform`
		6706	`The SOLARIS platform will generate one or more targets, depending on the`
		6707	`machine on which the platform is invoked.`
		6708
		6709	`Consolidated a number of SOLARIS specific kludges and converted them into`
		6710	`configurable items. These kludges are really on applicable to the`
		6711	`SOLARIS8_SPARC32 platform. New SOLARIS builds will be well formed.`
		6712
		6713	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6714	`Formalized a number of kludges in operation of the SOLARIS8 under sparc32`
		6715	`platform. These are configured early in the build process and are no longer`
		6716	`needed.`
		6717
		6718	`A side effect of this work is that files from external packages may be`
		6719	`located in 'SOLARIS', 'SOLARIS_sparc' or 'sparc' directories. The change`
		6720	`should be transparent as the consumer tools should be able to handle`
		6721	`files from all of these.`

		6735	`Major changes:`
		6736	`* Jats wrapper: Specify version of JATS to be used`
		6737	`Added a -version=xxxx option to force JATS to use a specific version of`
		6738	`JATS. The same operation can be achieved by setting GBE_JATS_VERSION.`
		6739
		6740	`The required version MUST be found in one of the known archives.`
		6741
		6742	`JATS will attempt to cache the version of JATS to assist in speeding up`

		6747	`The version option MUST be followed by a '--' option.`
		6748	`This prevents JATS parsing other options and recursion issues.`
		6749
		6750	`Example: jats -version=2.54.3.cr -- build`
		6751
		6752	`* Migrated the "jats install" functionality out of the jats wrapper script`
		6753	`and into the create_dpkg utility. This is transparent to the user.`
		6754
		6755	`* Utility: create_dpkg`
		6756	`Added a '-quiet' option to allow use within scripts`
		6757	`Extended the built-in help`
		6758	`Added useful error messages`
		6759	`Migrate code to a common error reporting mechanism`
		6760
		6761	`* WinCE toolset`
		6762	`Added support for the WCEPA962 target.`
		6763
		6764	`* M16 toolset as used in building MCRFirmware`
		6765	`Added a --MotOnly option to the Prog directives. MOT files`
		6766	`are used in the creation of bootstraps.`
		6767
		6768	`Minor changes:`
		6769	`* JATS wrapper script`
		6770	`Added a -ABT=xxx option to allow the Auto Build Tool to be invoked from`
		6771	`the command line.`
		6772
		6773	`* Utility: jats_rewrite`
		6774	`Modified so that it will display changes. These will then be present in the`
		6775	`ABT log so that a developer can see which packages have been rippled.`
		6776
		6777	`Internal Changes:`
		6778	`* Common Error Reporting`
		6779	`Will use environment variables to control DEBUG and VERBOSE levels`
		6780	`for individual users. A module reporting with a name of XXXX will use EnvVars`
		6781	`of GBE_XXXX_VERBOSE and GBE_XXXX_DEBUG to control the debug and VERBOSE`
		6782	`level.`
		6783
		6784	`Force flushing after a "Question" is asked to ensure that the prompt is`
		6785	`displayed.`
		6786
		6787	`Enable autoflush for both STDOUT and STDERR.`
		6788
		6789	`* Added JatsSystem module`
		6790	`Common code for accessing system commands`
		6791	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`

		6795
		6796	`Minor changes:`
		6797	`* BR Compiler toolset`
		6798	`Add the include file search path to the link command line. Allows`
		6799	`.def files to include other files.`
		6800
		6801	`* IAR toolset`
		6802	`Added AT7272 support`
		6803
		6804	`* Tool: jats_manifest`
		6805	`Added links to a suitable md5sum program on target platforms`
		6806
		6807	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6808	`Version: JATS_2.54.2 Released: 12-Jul-06`

		6810	`Major changes:`
		6811
		6812	`Minor changes:`
		6813	`* BR Compiler toolset`
		6814	`Corrected a problem in flagging that the non-version-1 compiler was in`
		6815	`use.`
		6816
		6817
		6818	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6819	`Version: JATS_2.54.1 Released: 29-Jun-06`
		6820	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6821	`Major changes:`
		6822
		6823	`Minor changes:`
		6824	`* Mictotec toolset`
		6825	`Assembler files. Define DEBUG in debug builds and NDEBUG in production`
		6826	`builds.`
		6827
		6828	`* JATS Core`
		6829	`Added GBE_ABT. This is used by the Auto Build Tool to indicate that an`
		6830	`auto build is in progress. It may be used by various tools to modify their`
		6831	`behaviour.`
		6832
		6833	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6834	`Version: JATS_2.54.0 Released: 22-Jun-06`
		6835	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6836	`Major changes:`
		6837	`* Removal of non-core deployment functionality from JATS.`
		6838	`Deployment package will be affected.`
		6839
		6840	`The build.pl file of deployment package will need to import deployment`
		6841	`support with a BuildPkgArchive directive. ie:`
		6842
		6843	`BuildPkgArchive ( 'deployfiles', '1.0.0.cr' );`
		6844
		6845	`This version of deployfiles contains the same functionality as that provided`
		6846	`by the previous version of JATS. Version 2 of this package will be the start`
		6847	`of a deployment system that will provide support for building InstallShield`
		6848	`packages.`
		6849
		6850	`* Deployment support utilities must be run under JATS`
		6851	`The environment required for the deployment support utilities is complex`
		6852	`and is provided by the JATS wrapper script.`
		6853
		6854	`This is a change in usage. Instead of running the program 'updatenodespec'`
		6855	`the user will need to run 'jats updatenodespec'`
		6856
		6857	`Minor changes:`
		6858	`* SubDir directive`
		6859	`Added a sanity test to detect the case when a 'SubDir' directive specifies`
		6860	`a directory from two different makefiles.`
		6861
		6862	`* Tools: Dependancy generator mkdepend`
		6863	`If an include file was referenced by a symbolic name, then the generated`
		6864	`dependancy information would be wrong for all but the first occurrence`
		6865	`of the file usage.`
		6866
		6867	`* New utility: jats_manifest`
		6868	`Used by the build system to generate and validate source files.`
		6869	`Beta Release: Windows only at the moment`
		6870
		6871	`* Unit tests under SOLARIS_sparc`
		6872	`The LD_LIBRARY_PATH has been modified to correctly pick up libraries`
		6873	`generated within the build and have been installed locally.`
		6874
		6875	`* Default behaviour of JATS the wrapper script`
		6876	`This has been changed. Previous unknown commands were passed to make.`
		6877	`In this release unknown comamnds will be treated a 'etool' commands and`
		6878	`will execute a JATS extended command.`
		6879
		6880
		6881	`Internal Changes:`
		6882	`* Code refactor`
		6883	`Created JatsEnv to encapsulate functionality that was multiply defined.`
		6884
		6885	`* Deployment utilities`
		6886	`The Perl module Ignorelist.pm and the .ccignore file`
		6887	`Changed the mechanism by which this module locates a .ccignore file.`
		6888	`The .ccignore file has been moved to the same directory as the module and`
		6889	`the module can locate the file.`
		6890
		6891	`Previously the module required an environment variable in order to locate`
		6892	`the file, which was in a fixed location anyway.`
		6893
		6894	`* JATS core`
		6895	`Removed the use of the environment variable PERLINC.`
		6896
		6897	`Better parsing of descpkg files.`
		6898
		6899	`* JATS core debugging: JatsError.pm`
		6900	`Allow control over the debug and verbose messages of specific programs`
		6901	`through the use of environment variables.`
		6902
		6903	`A program reporting errors as "name" can be controlled via environment`
		6904	`variables GBE_name_VERBOSE and GBE_name_DEBUG.`
		6905
		6906	`* BuildPkgArchive operation`
		6907	`Modified the subdirectories transferred with this directive to include:`
		6908	`deployfiles - as used by the deployment system`
		6909	`tools/scripts - as used by perl based extensions`
		6910
		6911	`* Make environment`
		6912	`Extended the PERL5LIB path seen by perl programs executed under make to`
		6913	`include 'tools/script' directories that contain Perl Modules.`
		6914
		6915
		6916	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6917	`Version: JATS_2.53.2 Released: 13-Jun-06`
		6918	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6919	`Major changes:`
		6920	`* Deployment. GetMassInstId.rul (From George Christidis)`
		6921	`Added support for SILENT_MODE`
		6922
		6923
		6924	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6925	`Version: JATS_2.53.1 Released: Not release`
		6926	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6927
		6928	`Not Released.`
		6929	`This label waas used as a place keeper. This version was not used as a basis`
		6930	`for JATS_2.53.2. Its much closer to JATS_2.54.0.`
		6931
		6932
		6933	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6934	`Version: JATS_2.53.0 Released: 11-Apr-06`
		6935	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		6936	`Major changes:`
		6937	`* Deployment Scripts: Release Manager Database Access`
		6938	`The mechanism for communicating with the Release Manager Database has been`
		6939	`radically replaced.`
		6940
		6941	`A test tool has been added to prove connectivity to Release Manager.`
		6942	`Usage:`
		6943	`jats etool test_rmconnection`
		6944
		6945	`The pervious scripts used DBI::ODBC to communicate with the Oracle`
		6946	`Database that contains Release Manager. There were a number of problems with`
		6947	`this solution:`
		6948	`- Required the installation of two Perl Modules`
		6949	`- Required the installation of an Oracle client`
		6950	`- Required the use of an ODBC bridge machine when used on Solaris`
		6951	`- Support for Perl within Oracle appears to be on the decline`
		6952
		6953	`The solutions uses a Java application and Java's jdbc. The oracle:thin`
		6954	`client is used as this does not require any installation or configuration in`
		6955	`order to work.`
		6956
		6957	`JATS overrides Perl's DBI package with a package of the same name, but`
		6958	`reduced functionality.`
		6959
		6960
		6961	`Minor changes:`
		6962	`* makefile.pl directive: SetValue`
		6963	`Added a '--' option to disable and enable parsing of options.`
		6964	`This allows a value with leading '--' to be set.`
		6965
		6966	`* makefile.pl directive: SetList`
		6967	`Added this directive to formalise the creation and processing of lists`
		6968	`within the makefiles.`
		6969	`Options:`
		6970	`--NoWarn Disable name clash warnings`
		6971	`--Project=xxxx[,xxxx]+ Add to list in selected projects`
		6972	`--Unique Add only if not already present`
		6973	`--Clear Clear list, before adding new items`
		6974	`--Append Append items to list (default)`
		6975	`-- Disable/Enable option parsing`
		6976	`Useage:`
		6977
		6978	`SetList ('*', 'LibList', 'lib1', 'lib2', '--Project=syd');`
		6979	`SharedLib ('*', 'MyDLL', @OBJS, @LibList );`
		6980
		6981	`* Makefile.pl directive: RunTest`
		6982	`Corrected the option of the --CopyIn=file option where the specified file`
		6983	`is not in the current directory.`
		6984
		6985	`* Jats Command: ant'`
		6986	`This command has been extended to make use of the -buildfile=xxxx option`
		6987	`to allow multiple buildfiles to be differentiated.`
		6988
		6989	`eg: jats -buildfile=MyPackage ant`
		6990
		6991	`* TOOLSET: DAFBR Compiler support`
		6992	`Modified the toolset to support an optimisation feature of the next`
		6993	`generation of the daf_br_compiler. These will be enabled if the major version`
		6994	`of the package containing the compiler is greater the "1". ie: 2.0.0.cr`
		6995
		6996	`* Interface helper files: set_XXXX.bat/.sh`
		6997	`Added provision to process user command arguments.`
		6998	`Thus`
		6999
		7000	`set_WIN32.bat prog`
		7001
		7002	`will set the WIN32 environment and run the command: prog`
		7003

		7005	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7006	`Version: JATS_2.52.2 Released: 30-Mar-06`
		7007	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7008	`Major changes:`
		7009
		7010	`Minor changes:`
		7011	`* Addressed issue with BUILDNAME, an internal variable.`
		7012	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user build.pl's they need to be`
		7013	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a project`
		7014	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		7015	`$(BUILDNAME) contains two or three space seperated fields - always`
		7016
		7017	`* m16c Toolset - MCRFirmware`
		7018	`Force the generation of .thx and payload files when the .bin files are`
		7019	`created. Previously this only occured in the packaging phase.`
		7020
		7021	`Internal changes:`
		7022	`* JATS toolsets`
		7023	`Added a feature to allow a toolset to flag additional files that get created`
		7024	`as a part of a "Prog". This allows a "Prog" definition to generate a`
		7025	`number of files, some which may be packaged.`
		7026
		7027	`Previously such files where only generated during the packaging phase. Now`
		7028	`they will be generated during the make_prog phase - with the other programs.`
		7029
		7030	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7031	`Version: JATS_2.52.1 Released: 29-Mar-06`
		7032	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7033	`Major changes:`
		7034	`* Jats command: etool`
		7035	`Extended to allow execution of deployment tools. This allows the deployment`
		7036	`tools to use the JATS core perl modules.`
		7037
		7038	`* Address issues with the use of BUILDVER and ScmBuildVer`
		7039	`Due to the use of these 'raw' values in user makefile.pl's they need to be`
		7040	`maintained. Previously the values may or may not have had a projectt`
		7041	`extension. It was bad. Now:`
		7042	`$(BUILDVERSION) contains the project extension - always`
		7043	`$ScmBuildVersion does not contain a project extension - always`
		7044
		7045	`Minor changes:`
		7046
		7047
		7048	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7049	`Version: JATS_2.52.0 Released: 27-Mar-06`
		7050	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7051	`Major changes:`
		7052	`* JATS environment variables`
		7053	`Added GBE_DPKG_STORE`
		7054	`Optionally addresses a dpkg_archive store. This is intended to allow`
		7055	`read only access to a remote repository. The GBE_DPKG_STORE will be`
		7056	`searched after GBE_DPKG. It will be searched last. JATS, be default,`
		7057	`will not publish packages in this repository.`
		7058
		7059	`Uses: Seed repository for a complete build`
		7060	`Remote repository`
		7061
		7062	`Added GBE_DPLY`
		7063	`Optionally addresses a Deployment Archive. This is only used in the`
		7064	`placement of deployment packages. This value may be project specific.`
		7065
		7066	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		7067	`Changes the mechanism used to link against the compiler RTL.`
		7068	`Previously the RTL was included multiple times in the link order. This`
		7069	`created problem with daf_dsi as the function 'time()' was being satisfied by`
		7070	`the RTL before being satisfied by the user libraries.`
		7071
		7072	`The compiler RTL is now treated as a library of last resort. It will be`
		7073	`processed once and it will be processed last.`
		7074
		7075
		7076	`Minor changes:`
		7077	`* JATS utility: build`
		7078	`* JATS utility: cache_dpkg`
		7079	`Extended the package search algorithm to locate a package within`
		7080	`GBE_DPKG_STORE. This archive will be searched last.`
		7081
		7082	`* JATS utility: gen_cots`
		7083	`Ensure label is not locked`
		7084	`Add option to allow user to specify source directory other than a package`
		7085	`that already exists in dpkg_archive.`
		7086
		7087	`* JATS directive: PackageFile`
		7088	`Now supports --Prod and --Debug options to limit the packaging process`
		7089	`to a specific type of build.`
		7090
		7091	`* JATS directive: GenerateFiles and RunTests`
		7092	`Added a --PackageInfo() replacement tag to allow package version information`
		7093	`to be extracted and passed to generator programs.`
		7094	`ie: --PackageInfo(sysbasetypes,syd,--fullversion)`
		7095
		7096	`Extended the --PackageBase() replacement tag to work with packages such as`
		7097	`sysbasetypes, where there is a .cr and a .syd type.`
		7098	`ie: --PackageBase(sysbasetypes,syd)`
		7099
		7100	`* JATS utility: release`
		7101	`Under windows, ensure that the directory C:\Clearcase exists. There have`
		7102	`been installations of Clearcase where this is directory does not exist.`
		7103
		7104	`* JATS utility: label`
		7105	`Added option: "-comment=Text" to allow a comment to be added to a label,`
		7106	`when it is being created.`
		7107
		7108	`Internal Changes`
		7109	`* JATS utility: create_dpkg`
		7110	`Refactored code to use JATS DescPkg class.`
		7111
		7112	`Added options to allow packaging to the various archives. This is of no use`
		7113	`to the normal developer, but will be used within the complete build system.`
		7114
		7115	`* Factored out the parsing of the BuildName directive`
		7116	`This process was being done in 3 locations - and there were getting`
		7117	`different results.`
		7118
		7119	`* ToolsetRequire directive`
		7120	`This has been extended to allow JATS to locate Toolset extensions within`
		7121	`packages. They should be placed within the tool/scripts directory`
		7122
		7123	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7124	`Version: JATS_2.51.0 Released: 15-Mar-06`
		7125	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`

		7132	`Version: JATS_2.50.0 Released: 15-Feb-06`
		7133	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7134	`Major changes:`
		7135	`* WIN32 utilities`
		7136	`Replaced a number of the Windows utilities ( cp, rm, mv ...)`
		7137	`with versions from the GNUWin32 project.`
		7138
		7139	`The 'cp' previously used could not recursively copy large directories`
		7140	`under Windows Server 2003, when both the source and destination are on the`
		7141	`same drive. ( dpkg_cache of ace ).`
		7142
		7143	`Minor changes:`
		7144	`* BuildVersion`
		7145	`The definition of VERSION_BUILD within the generated version-defs.h file`
		7146	`will have leading zeros removed, thus allowing it to be used within a 'C'`
		7147	`program without the number being interpreted as an octal constant.`
		7148
		7149	`The string form (VERSION_BUILD_STR) will retain the zeros.`
		7150
		7151	`* Unix Builds`
		7152	`Corrected several issues encountered when specifying the name of a static`
		7153	`library or a shared library.`
		7154
		7155	`JATS will prepend 'lib' to the user specified library name. Problems occurred`
		7156	`when the user specified a library name that started with 'lib'. Now, on Unix`
		7157	`systems, JATS will only prepend 'lib' if the library name does not already`
		7158	`start with 'lib'.`
		7159
		7160	`* BuildPkgArchive`
		7161	`Since 2.45.0 JATS will only transfer files for the BuildPkgArchive, if`
		7162	`they have not already been transferred. Added a test for the source`
		7163	`package being updated and then forceing the copy to be repeated.`
		7164
		7165	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7166	`Version: JATS_2.49.0 Released: 10-Feb-06`
		7167	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7168	`Major changes:`
		7169	`* MOS_MRI toolset`
		7170	`Corrected a problem with the dependencies between a .REL file and the target`
		7171	`THX file. If the .REL files was modified the output THX file did not get`
		7172	`regenerated. This was only a problem in cases where the .REL file was`
		7173	`being manually maintained.`
		7174
		7175
		7176	`Minor changes:`
		7177	`* MakeAnt directive`
		7178	`Introduced a check to ensure that this directive is only used with a toolset`
		7179	`that can handle an 'ant' build file. Currently only the JAVA toolset`
		7180	`supports ANT builds.`
		7181
		7182	`* BuildPkgArchive directive`
		7183	`Correct problem in the caching of BuildPkgArchive packages in the case where`
		7184	`there is no GBE_DPKG_LOCAL on the machine.`
		7185
		7186	`* Label utility`
		7187	`Added a 'files=filename,filename' option to allow only specified`
		7188	`files to be labeled.`
		7189
		7190	`* Build. Parsing descpkg files`
		7191	`Corrected problem in which Java Manifest files were not parsed correctly`
		7192	`on Solaris.`
		7193
		7194	`* Generated makefiles`
		7195	`Fix a bug with the CompilerOptions that allowed a '0' definition to be set to`
		7196	`nothing.`
		7197
		7198	`* MOS Toolset`
		7199	`Added 'CompileOptions' of CcSupervisor.`
		7200	`This will set a MOS internal definition suitable for building specialised`
		7201	`modules.`
		7202
		7203	`* Utility: gen_cots`
		7204	`This utility will create a JATS buildable package froma dpkg_archive entry`
		7205	`and then check it in under clearcase.`
		7206
		7207	`JATS etool gen_cots -man will provide only help.`
		7208
		7209	`* Utilty cache_dpkg`
		7210	`Detect and repair incomplete copy operations.`

		7213	`Version: JATS_2.48.0 Released: 24-Jan-06`
		7214	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7215	`Major changes:`
		7216	`None`
		7217
		7218	`Minor changes:`
		7219	`* DEVI addressed`
		7220	`DEVI-022055 JATS builds DLLs with wrong copyright symbol in version resource`
5710	dpurdie	7221	`DEVI-022054 JATS puts "VIX Group test" in Product Name of Windows resource`
227	dpurdie	7222
		7223	`* Utility: release (cbuild)`
		7224	`Added an option to create a view configured to work with a branching`
		7225	`rule. A single branch can be named with the -branch option. eg:`
		7226
		7227	`jats release -extract 'label' -branch SITS_LEGACY_BRANCH`
		7228
		7229	`will create a view based on the named label, but suitable for creating`
		7230	`a patch for Sydney Legacy work.`
		7231
		7232	`* RunTest directive`
		7233	`The 'PATH' that the test uses is extended to allow access to programs that have`
		7234	`been installed with a InstallProg directive. This allows a test script to`
		7235	`test a program that is generated elsewhere within the package.`
		7236
		7237	`* PackageFile, Option --DirTree`
		7238	`Support for filenames that contain a "$" or a ' ' within the`
		7239	`--DirTree option. Implemented to allow entire JAVA class trees to be`
		7240	`packaged under JATS`
		7241
		7242	`Note: In general the use of a $ and space within a filename is not`
		7243	`supported within JATS.`
		7244
		7245	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7246	`Added an eprog option. The allows any program to be run within the`
		7247	`sanitized environment provided by JATS.`
		7248
		7249	`The specified program may be in the current directory or the user's`
		7250	`PATH. If the program is a perl script then it will be run with the`
		7251	`JATS perl interpreter, otherwise it will be processed by the system.`
		7252
		7253	`Eg: jats eprog myscript arg1 arg2`
		7254	`Eg: jats ant`
		7255
		7256	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7257	`Added an 'ant' command. ( "jats ant" )`
		7258
5710	dpurdie	7259	`This will run an VIX ANT build by scanning the current directory for a file`
227	dpurdie	7260	`called <ProjectName>depends.xml and then looking the a file called`
		7261	`<ProjectName>.xml. Jats will then create 'auto.xml' based on the`
		7262	`<ProjectName>depends.xml file and use ant to invoke the`
		7263	`<ProjectName>.xml file.`
		7264
5710	dpurdie	7265	`If the VIX build files cannot be found then ant is simply run and it will`
227	dpurdie	7266	`expect a build.pl file.`
		7267
		7268	`* Jats utility wrapper`
		7269	`Force the environment variable PERL5INC to be unset.`
		7270
		7271	`* Jats utility: create_dpkg`
		7272	`Simplify handling of ANT based projects. Look for the package within`
		7273	`the build/pkg subdirectory, in the JANTS style.`
		7274
		7275	`* Utility: gen_winrc (DEVI-022054)`
		7276	`Added a "'-product=text'" option to allow the product name to be specified.`
		7277
		7278	`* Build files`
		7279	`Handle the java generated descpkg files. These are a Manifest format with`
5710	dpurdie	7280	`VIX extensions.`
227	dpurdie	7281

		7283	`Version: JATS_2.47.0 Released: 20-Dec-05`
		7284	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7285	`Major changes:`
		7286	`* BuildVersion directive in build.pl`
		7287	`Correct a problem in the generation of version.c`
		7288	`The function GetModuleInfo() would return a string with a trailing`
		7289	`space when the 'array' mode was selected.`
		7290
		7291	`This may cause module validation to fail.`
		7292
		7293	`Minor changes:`
		7294	`* None`
		7295
		7296	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7297	`Version: JATS_2.46.0 Released: 08-Dec-05`
		7298	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7299	`Major changes:`
		7300	`* BuildProduct and BuildPlatforms directives`
		7301	`Added option --Uses=NAME`
		7302	`ie:`
		7303	`BuildProduct ( 'OBFTP,--Uses=TP5', 'MOSCF' );`
		7304
		7305	`This will create a OBFTP_MOSCF platform that will 'use' TP5`
		7306	`headers and libraries if none are specifically provided for the`
		7307	`OBFTP. It is the users responsibily to ensure that the two build`
		7308	`environments are compatible.`
		7309
		7310
		7311	`Minor changes:`
		7312	`* BuildName option`
		7313	`Modifications to allow the creation of COTS packages with buildnames`
5710	dpurdie	7314	`that do not confirm to the VIX naming scheme (--RelaxedVersion).`
227	dpurdie	7315
		7316	`* jats.bat`
		7317	`Ensure that GBE_BIN is not defined`
		7318	`It will be set by the jats.pl to a fully qualified path.`
		7319
		7320	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7321	`Version: JATS_2.45.0 Released: 29-Nov-05`
		7322	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7323	`Major changes:`
		7324	`* BuildPkgArchive directive`
		7325	`The operation of the BuildPkgArchive directive has been modified`
		7326	`so that a package will only be installed once. This significantly`
		7327	`speeds up multiple 'build' operations.`
		7328
		7329	`If the package is being extracted from the 'local archive', then`
		7330	`this mechanism is suppressed as packages in the local archive are`
		7331	`considered as under development and are subject to change.`
		7332
		7333	`If package cache is being refreshed, then the package will be`
		7334	`installed a second time. Thus it is possible to force the package to`
		7335	`be transferred into the 'interface' directory.`
		7336
		7337	`A BuildTags directory is used to track packages that have been`
		7338	`transferred.`
		7339
		7340	`* Internal changes to factor common code into a group of packages.`
		7341	`See notes below.`
		7342
		7343	`* WIN32 toolset`
		7344	`Allow the Microsoft preprocessor directive #import to operate`
		7345	`correctly.`
		7346
		7347	`Export the complete library search path into the build environment`
		7348	`for all Microsoft command, not just the linker and library commands.`
		7349
		7350	`* BuildVersion`
		7351	`Modifications to allow the generation of version files for C#`
		7352	`The mechanism has been extended to allow version information for`
		7353	`other langauges as needed.`
		7354
		7355
		7356	`Minor changes:`
		7357	`* Utility: gen_winrc.pl`
		7358	`Will extracted build number from the patch number, if present.`
		7359	`This information will be available to be placed into the generation`
		7360	`version strings.`
		7361
		7362	`* GenerateFiles directive`
		7363	`Fixed a problem detecting programs that were not in the local`
		7364	`package or an imported package.`
		7365
		7366	`* Toolsets: MOS_MRI`
		7367	`Generate an error if required tools are not found.`
		7368	`Previously this condition would generate a warning.`
		7369
		7370	`* BuildPkgArchive and LinkPkgArchive directives`
		7371	`Ensure that packages are only included once. The previous check`
		7372	`was half-hearted and could allow multiple packages of the same`
		7373	`version to be included. This could result in badly formed`
		7374	`makefiles and strange error messages.`
		7375
		7376	`Internal Changes`
		7377	`* Started to factor out internal packages and place them into a common`
		7378	`directory. This will allow common error handling thoughout the suite`
		7379	`of utilities.`
		7380
		7381	`Modified all utilities to utilize the common error reporting`
		7382	`functions.`
		7383
		7384	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7385	`Version: JATS_2.44.0 Released: 18-Nov-05`
		7386	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7387	`Major changes:`
		7388	`* Generated makefiles`
		7389	`Modified the windows shell to remove the use of the EXTENDED_LINE`
		7390	`cache. This did not work. Modified the extend.lst file to ensure`
		7391	`that sed did not process its arguments.`
		7392
		7393	`This has been done to address a problem seen within test scripts`
		7394	`within unit tests that use wildcard expansion. The windows shell was`
		7395	`incorrectly processing:`
		7396	`sed '-es~.*WIN32~~'`
		7397	`The '.*' construct was being seen as a wildcard and the shell was`
		7398	`then putting the argument into a command file - it was totally`
		7399	`confused.`
		7400
		7401	`NOTE: Attempted to remove use of EXTENDED_LINE, but this caused a`
		7402	`breakage with the DOS based gcc compiler( ie:H8S and others).`
		7403	`The construct`
		7404	`-D__SOURCE__=\"name\"`
		7405	`was corrupted somewhere. If the command is put in a command file,`
		7406	`then it works.`
		7407
		7408	`* MakeAnt directive`
		7409	`Added option: --GeneratedFile=PathOfFile`
		7410
		7411	`This option has the following effects`
		7412	`1) Marks the file a source file. It is then known to JATS and`
		7413	`can be used installed and manipulated.`
		7414
		7415	`2) Schedules the processing of the ANT build to be done`
		7416	`early - in the generated files phase.`
		7417
		7418	`Intended use. The creation of packages with a JNI. The Java`
		7419	`component needs to generate a header file early.`
		7420
		7421
		7422	`Minor changes:`
		7423	`* JATS post-installation script`
		7424	`Flag deployment tools and libraries as executable.`
		7425
		7426	`* Detection of extension type is case insensitive for non-unix`
		7427	`systems. Thus .h and .H files will considered header files in`
		7428	`windows.`
		7429
		7430	`* Build.pl rewrite tool`
		7431	`Handle all variants of BuildName`
		7432
		7433	`* Jats wrapper script`
		7434	`Generate an error if the JATS configuration variables are not usable`
		7435	`1) Contain spaces`
		7436	`2) Start with a // - Remote drives must be mapped`
		7437
		7438	`* Toolset`
		7439	`Added a 'LINUX' platform.`
		7440
		7441	`* JAVA toolset`
		7442	`Ensure the that build file passed via MakeAnt contains the following`
		7443	`directive:`
		7444
		7445	`includeAntRuntime="off"'`
		7446
		7447	`This MUST be used to ensure that ANT's classpath is not passed to`
		7448	`the java compiler thus ensuring that the compiler does not use ANT's`
		7449	`version of any JAR files that have not been specified by the user.`
		7450
		7451	`* GCC Toolset`
		7452	`Use -Map name to create map files as needed for GCC under Debian`
		7453
		7454	`* Makefile generation`
		7455	`When packages are used by name to resolve package location JATS`
		7456	`has been modified to use the package name specified by the user.`
		7457	`Previously JATS would use the package name found within the`
		7458	`descpkg file. In cases where the descpkg file was badly formed the`
		7459	`package could not be used.`
		7460
		7461	`* Unit Tests`
		7462	`The following environment variables are set:`
		7463
		7464	`GBE_TYPE - The type of build. Debug or production. This`
		7465	`will be set to either a 'P' or 'D'`
		7466
		7467	`GBE_HOST - The host machine we are running on.`
		7468	`This will be set to 'WIN' or Unix'`
		7469
		7470	`These variable should assist in the production of test scripts.`
		7471
		7472	`* New makefile.pl directive: SetValue`
		7473
		7474
		7475	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`

		7477	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7478	`Major changes:`
		7479	`* New Platform : "MCR" using the Mitsubishi m16c compiler.`
		7480
		7481	`Special features of this toolset.`
		7482	`1) A .THX source file will be converted to an obtect file`
		7483	`This allows processing of fonts within a THX file to be`
		7484	`incorporated within the target image.`
		7485
		7486	`2) Prog directive extensions:`
		7487	`--Set=Name=Value`
		7488	`The 'Name' is set to 'Value' at link time.`
		7489	`This allows the location of program segments to be set`
		7490
		7491	`--Ref=name`
		7492	`The name of a Release file. If provided, it will be used`
		7493	`to provide information that will be placed within the`
		7494	`THX header. The version number will be ignored. It`
		7495	`will be taken from the build version number.`
		7496
		7497	`Minor changes:`
		7498	`* MOS Toolset`
		7499	`Create the VisionClick files when the THX file is created.`
		7500	`Previously the files were created when the THX was installed or`
		7501	`packaged.`
		7502
		7503	`* Src directive`
		7504	`No generates a warning if no source files are located within the`
		7505	`directive. This is normally the result of a missing platform`
		7506	`specifier.`
		7507
		7508	`* WIN32 runtime support`
		7509	`Added the following 'Unix' style utilities to assist in testing.`
		7510	`1) od - dump files in octal and other formats`
		7511	`2) cmp - compare two files byte by byte`
		7512
		7513	`Internal:`
		7514	`Added an extension to allow the target toolset to handle the "Prog"`
		7515	`dependancy generation if required. This allow complex program`
		7516	`generation mechanisms to be handled by the toolset.`
		7517
		7518	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		7519	`Version: JATS_2.42.0 Released: 19-Oct-05`

		7521	`Major changes:`
		7522	`* BuildAlias directive`
		7523	`Added options.`
		7524	`--Define - Does not create implicit platforms`
		7525	`--Target - Redeclares the alais as the list of all`
		7526	`platforms that are based on a given target or`
		7527	`targets.`
		7528	`Eg:`
		7529	`BuildAlias ( 'LMOS,--Target', 'LMOS_WIN32', 'LMOS_linux_armv4' );`
		7530	`BuildProduct ( 'GAK', 'LMOS', 'MOS68K', 'MOSCF' );`
		7531	`BuildProduct ( 'PCP', 'LMOS', 'MOS68K' );`
		7532
		7533	`Will export an alias of LMOS that can be used within makefile.pl's`
		7534	`that will be the list of all platforms that have a target of`
		7535	`'LMOS_WIN32' or 'LMOS_linux_armv4'.`
		7536
		7537	`Note the dual use of LMOS within the example. This is intentional.`
		7538	`The LMOS alias is used within the BuildProduct to simplify the`
		7539	`specification of all the LMOS targets.`
		7540
		7541
		7542	`Minor changes:`
		7543	`* Label utility`
		7544	`Will generate a warning message if it labels more than one`
		7545	`build.pl file`
		7546
		7547	`* Package directives. PackageFile.`
		7548	`Corrected a problem with wildcard expansion in which a --FilterIn`

		7551	`--FilterIn option.`
		7552
		7553	`* jats release (cbuilder) utility`
		7554	`Correct use of the -prodOnly and -debugOnly flags.`
		7555	`The full name was not accepted; -debug and -prod was.`
		7556
		7557	`* Location of descpkg file`
		7558	`All makefile.pl's now know where the package descpkg file was`
		7559	`created. This simplifies the process og packaging this file as it`
		7560	`can be done within any makefile.pl.`

		7566	`* RunTest directive`
		7567	`Extended the options and operation of RunTest`
		7568	`Additional options`
		7569	`--CopyIn=file`
		7570	`This will copy the specified file into the BIN directory before`
		7571	`the test is run. The file will be marked as executable. This`
		7572	`allows scripts and configuration files to be transferred into`
		7573	`the test area.`
		7574
		7575	`Additional operations`
		7576	`The arguments passed to the script/program allow a number of`
		7577	`transformations, similar to GenerateFiles. Transforms`
		7578	`--File(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a known file`
		7579	`--Local(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a file that has been Installed`
		7580	`--PackageBase(xxxx[,flags]) - xxxx is a Package`

		7607
		7608	`The default will use the default machine version of JAVA.`
		7609	`This may not be sutable for all packages.`
		7610
		7611	`Non-default versions of JAVA require that an environment variable be`
		7612	`set to the root of the JDK directory. These are:`

		7678	`Consolidated the parsing of the OPTIONS arguments.`
		7679
		7680	`The filter and nofilter options are globally applied to all tools`
		7681	`sets. ie: jats make debug OPTIONS=nofilter`
		7682
		7683	`* Label utility`
		7684	`Generate a warning when attempting to label a symbolic link.`
		7685	`Links are very hard to maintain in a reproducible manner.`
		7686
		7687	`Minor changes:`
		7688	`* Toolsets`
		7689	`Replaced the use of c:\WINDOWS and c:\Program Files with suitable`
		7690	`variables and overrides.`
		7691
		7692	`The make_init target is always run.`
		7693	`This facility had been lost. The target was being used to provide`
		7694	`compiler sanity testing, but had was not being reliably run.`
		7695
		7696	`* Deployment`
		7697	`Suppress testing of compiler existence when used in conjunction`
		7698	`with deployment operations.`
		7699
		7700	`* Release utility`
		7701	`Add options to build only the debug or the production versions.`
		7702	`The default is to build both. Note: User option may be further`
		7703	`restricted by options within the build.`
		7704
		7705	`* PackageLib, InstallLib and MergeLib directives in makefile.pl`
		7706	`The use of @LIBS and @MLIBS in unix systems was causing a`
		7707	`problem as these variables already had a 'lib' prepended to the`
		7708	`list of libraries. These directives would add another 'lib' to the`
		7709	`list of libraries under unix causing a mismatch.`
		7710
		7711	`Corrected by stripping liblib from the names within these`
		7712	`directives.`
		7713
		7714	`* MakeProject directive`
		7715	`If the project build fails the log file was not being displayed`
		7716	`because 'make' stops when a command fails.`
		7717
		7718	`The MakeProject operations have been modified to ensure that the`
		7719	`log file is always displayed. The exit code of the build command`
		7720	`is preserved.`
		7721
		7722	`* Auto build utility jats-rewrite.pl`
		7723	`Modified to support the rewrite of Java 'using' and 'project'`
		7724	`statements.`
		7725
		7726	`* Mugfile generation`
		7727	`Added a --ThxDir=xxxx option to allow the THX and load files to`

		7742	`Minor changes:`
		7743	`* AddFlags directives`
		7744	`Added a --NoWarn option that will suppress the warning of`
		7745	`duplicate flags being added.`
		7746
		7747	`* GBE_CORE environment variable (Windows)`
		7748	`Ensure that GBE_CORE has a driver letter. This allows use of JATS`
		7749	`loaded into the same dynamic view as the user code.`
		7750
		7751	`* Mug File Generation`
		7752	`Added support to allow load files to include other load files.`
		7753
		7754	`* 'cbuild' or 'release' command`
		7755	`Added a -latestroot=xxxx option. This is a work around for the`
		7756	`problem where the root level directory in the VOB has not been`
		7757	`labeled. After using this switch add the label to the root`
		7758	`directory.`
		7759
		7760	`The need to use this this switch indicates that the view is NOT`
		7761	`reproducible.`

		7790	`Enhanced (thanks Ross) to allow PATH information for various`
		7791	`target platforms to be extracted.`
		7792
		7793	`Better support for Product families. This is only an issue`
		7794	`for WIN32 derived families due to the generation of a list of`
		7795	`libraries. The list now observes Product hierarchy.`
		7796
		7797	`* Utility: release (cbuilder)`

		7813	`to be generated within the same script. Example:`
		7814
		7815	`Prog('*', 'Myprog', @OBJS );`
		7816	`GenerateFiles ('*', "--Prog=MyProg",`

		7822	`tests will be run with the 'run_unit_tests' target. All tests will`
		7823	`be run with the 'run_tests' targets. Only tests that confirm to`
5710	dpurdie	7824	`the VIX "Unit Test Automation" guidelines should be marked as`
227	dpurdie	7825	`-- Auto.`
		7826
		7827	`* Added a new make target: run_unit_tests`
		7828	`This will be used by the build tool to run non-interactive`
		7829	`unit tests within an automated framework.`
		7830
		7831	`* Make run_test and run_unit_test operation`
		7832	`The search path for DLL's or Shared Libraries is extended to`
		7833	`include all Shared Libraries in the build package list as well`

		7835	`locate required Shared Libraries at runtime.`
		7836
		7837	`* WIN32 targets built using Visual Studio 6`
		7838	`The path to the compiler is setup within JATS. It is no longer`

		7840	`indeterminate when multiple versions of Visual Studio are`
		7841	`installed on the machine.`
		7842
		7843	`* WINCE Targets`
		7844	`The name of the SDK is case sensitive.`

		7861
		7862	`* UNIX Platforms (SOLARIS and LINUX)`
		7863	`Modification to allow BuildProduct and BuildPkgArchive to`
		7864	`interwork. Previously BuildPkgArchive packages were placed into`
		7865	`the 'interface/lib/SOLARIS' subdirectory and this was not being`

		7867
		7868	`Minor changes:`

		7870	`New sub-options to filename generation commands`
		7871	`--abspath - provide the named file with an absolute path`
		7872	`--absdrive - provide the named file with an absolute path`
		7873	`and drive letter`
		7874
		7875	`* Src directive`
		7876	`Modified the --FromPackage' option to allow searching of the root`
		7877	`directory of a package.`
		7878
		7879	`Src('*', 'etc/data.ini', '--FromPackage' );`
		7880
		7881	`Also prevent warnings on duplicate files if the package is`

		7908	`windows, which has a habit of capitalizing filenames.`
		7909	`This should not affect current users.`

		7924	`Minor changes:`
		7925	`* Jats wrapper script`
		7926	`Windows: Ensure that cmd.exe is in the users PATH. Without cmd.exe`

		7929
		7930	`* LinkPkgArchive and BuildPkgArchive`
		7931	`Processing soft links. Generate a warnings if a package soft`

		7959
		7960	`* MakeAnt directive`
		7961	`Now supports --Debug and --Prod options to limit the building of`
		7962	`ANT files. The MakeAnt directive is only going to work in`
		7963	`conjunction with the JAVA target`

		8000	`* Support for Windows DLLs`
		8001	`When building a WIN32 target the file interface/set_WIN32.bat is`

		8004
		8005	`The file may be "called" from a wrapper batch file to start the`
		8006	`application or visual studio.`

		8050	`force LinkPkgArchive directives to be interpreted as`

		8054
		8055	`* WINCE and WIN32 Toolset`

		8081	`Multiple platforms should be specified as:`
		8082	`Src( 'PLAT1,PLAT2,PLAT3', .... );`
		8083	`with only a comma between the platforms: No whitespace`
		8084	`If whitespace did exist then the makefile.pl would not do what`
		8085	`was expected - and it would not warn the user. The simplest`
		8086	`solution was to allow whitespace either side of the comma.`
		8087
		8088	`* GenerateFiles directive within makefile.pl`
		8089	`Allow 3 different bracket styles for the arguments to allow for`

		8151
		8152	`* New utility - jats_save_build.pl`

		8243	`corrected.`
		8244
		8245	`* JATS will detect an "auto.pl" file and use it as an alternate`

		8278	`* Correct problem in handling the SOLARIS_SPARC platform.`
		8279	`The SOLARIS platform is a bit of a kludge for backward`

		8281	`SOLARIS_SPARC correctly.`
		8282
		8283	`* Preliminary Support`
		8284	`Global build options of --OnlyDebug and --OnlyProd, which are`

		8291
		8292	`These options limit processing to either Production or Debug`
		8293	`building. The default build will build both.`
		8294
		8295	`Minor changes:`
		8296	`* Extended the search path that JATS will use attempting to locate`

		8328	`The filename of the prereq file`
		8329
		8330	`* LinkPkgArchive and BuildPkgArchive will cause the build to fail if`
		8331	`the required package is not available. A "--package" option, to`
		8332	`the build command, will prevent this behaviour.`
		8333
		8334
		8335	`Minor changes:`
		8336	`* create_dpkg utility`
		8337	`Touch descpkg files when packages are merged. This will allow`

		8613	`specific files,but was missing out many needed subdirectories`
		8614
		8615	`Reduce the warnings generated. These were an artifact of the process`
		8616	`of picking up all the strange variations of the directory structures.`
		8617
		8618	`* Cleaned up the handling of object files that were generated by the`
		8619	`user.`
		8620
		8621	`* MOS Microtec Toolset`
		8622	`Always present an absolute filename to the compiler`
		8623	`Display a shortened filename to allow the user to track progress`
		8624
		8625	`This will remove error messages about the path being too long`
		8626	`for the -Gf option.`
		8627
		8628	`Minor changes:`
		8629	`* SOLARIS Toolset`
		8630	`Remove duplicate -KPIC flags on the command line`
		8631
		8632	`* Win32 and WinCE Toolset`
		8633	`Source files are either compiled by the C compiler as C files or`
		8634	`the C++ compiler as C++ files. The option to allow the compiler to`
		8635	`figure out what sort of file it is has been removed.`
		8636
		8637	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8638	`Version: JATS_2.10.0 Released: 11-Mar-05`
		8639	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8640	`Major changes:`
		8641	`* Extended BuildName to accept the form`
		8642	`BuildName ('package_name', 'nn.nn.nn.xxx' );`
		8643
		8644	`* MOS68K and MOSCF toolset.`
		8645	`Extended the --board option to allow the user to define code and`
		8646	`data addresses for the board.`
		8647
		8648	`BuildProduct( 'TP5', 'MOSCF','--board=01234H,05678H' );`
		8649
		8650	`Will set the code,data address for the debugable image`
		8651
		8652	`* Extended the PackageXxxxx options`
		8653	`1) Allow --Platform=xxx,yyy`
		8654	`Where xxx is a directory prefix and yyy is suffix to the`
		8655	`"platform" name. Only useful within the context of the`
		8656	`PackageFile`
		8657
		8658	`2) The operation of --Platform=xxx when used by the PackageFile`
		8659	`directive now treats the xxx directory as a prefix to the`
		8660	`platform name. Other Package directives still treat it as a`
		8661	`suffix. In practice this is the logical use.`
		8662
		8663	`* Allow InstallLib and PackageLib to install a file that has been`
		8664	`discovered with a "Src" directive. This allows generated files`
		8665	`to be installed and packaged.`
		8666
		8667	`Minor changes:`
		8668
		8669	`* cache_dpkg utility`
		8670	`If a package is found in the local_dpkg_archive then the cache`
		8671	`entry will be deleted and the master archive will not be accessed.`
		8672
		8673	`* label utility`
		8674	`New option -auto to create and label`
		8675
		8676	`* Build WIN32 and WinCe Mutual DLLs with all the object files`
		8677	`This allows the generated import library to contain C++ names`
		8678
		8679	`* The BuildDirTree directive now supports an empty first argument`
		8680	`This allows a NULL tree.dir file, while still creating the root`
		8681	`directory. ie:`
		8682
		8683	`BuildDirTree ( '', 'pkg' );`
		8684
		8685	`* Fixed DEVIM 00019520`
		8686	`The problem was that /bin/pwd could return a different path to`
		8687	`the Cwd:getpwd() function. Solution: Use one mechanism throughout.`
		8688
		8689
		8690	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8691	`Version: JATS_2.9.0 Released: 28-Feb-05`
		8692	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8693	`Major changes:`
		8694	`* First release for Back Office and Front Office use.`
		8695
		8696	`* Added the jats tool jats_rewrite.pl to rewrite build.pl files.`
		8697	`To be used by the nightly build process.`
		8698
		8699	`* Work around a problem in the Microtec 68K compiler.`
		8700	`The compiler uses temp files. If the temp file name that the`
		8701	`compiler uses already exists, then the compiler will not delete`
		8702	`the file. Instead it appends information to the existing file.`
		8703
		8704	`The workaround is to create the temp files within the build's`
		8705	`interface directory and to remove all temp files before each`
		8706	`compilation.`
		8707
		8708	`This bug does not affect the Mictotec CF compiler.`
		8709
		8710	`Minor changes:`
		8711	`* The "jats clobber" command will remove version definition file, if`
		8712	`one is being produced.`
		8713
		8714	`* Using JATS within a Visual Studio project. The "rebuild all"`
		8715	`option now translates to the JATS unbuild command to do a better`
		8716	`job of cleaning the workspace.`
		8717
		8718	`* Added GetPackageRoot() directive to support the packaging of MOS`
		8719
		8720	`* Generate error message for misuse of the SubDir directive`
		8721
		8722	`* Modified BuildName to allow an '-' in the name.`
		8723	`This provides backward compatibility with existing packages.`
		8724
		8725	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8726	`Version: JATS_2.8.0 Released: 17-Feb-05`
		8727	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8728	`Major changes:`
		8729	`* Added some new WINCE based targets. These require WINCE SDKs to be`
		8730	`installed in order for the compilers to work.`
		8731
		8732	`* New PLATFORMS are WCEIT3000, WCEPA961 and WCEPCM7220`
		8733
		8734	`* All invocations of xmake specify the name of the makefile`
		8735	`This allow GNUMakefiles and the Jats makefiles to exist in the`
		8736	`same directory`
		8737
		8738	`* Overcome a limitation of the Microtec compiler in which the flag`
		8739	`_DEBUG is defined enev in production builds - contrary to the`
		8740	`documenattion.`
		8741
		8742	`Minor changes:`
		8743	`* Process of descpkg files allows for both Unix and DOS line endings`
		8744	`Under Unix JATS would report that the package names don't match`
		8745
		8746	`* Corrected a problem with BuildPkgArchive in which file names with`
		8747	`spaces could not be soft linked. Only affects Unix systems.`
		8748
		8749	`* Added a -rename to the "jats label" utility.`
		8750	`Ensure that the user specified label exists in the VOB`
		8751
		8752	`* Correct problem with "make clean" that resulted in a verbose display`
		8753	`when the verbose option had not been selected`
		8754
		8755	`* Correct a problem with "make unbuild". Changes in the build files`
		8756	`would prevent the execution of the command. This command should`
		8757	`be exempt from this test.`
		8758
		8759	`* Correct a problem with "make clean" in the WIN32 and WINCE`
		8760	`platforms where the .exp files were not deleted.`
		8761
		8762	`* The "JATS clobber" command now invokes "make clobber" and "build`
		8763	`clobber". The result is as clean a clean as it can be.`
		8764
		8765	`Note: Jats "clean" does not remove a lot of files. These can be`
		8766	`removed with "unbuild" and "unpackage". This is what "clobber"`
		8767	`does.`
		8768
		8769	`* The operation of "build clobber" has been cleaned up. It will`
		8770	`not try to invoke make if the makefiles have already been removed.`
		8771
		8772
		8773	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8774	`Version: JATS_2.7.0 Released: 09-Feb-05`
		8775	`------------------------------------------------------------------------`
		8776	`Major changes:`
		8777	`* First release with support for the DAFBR compiler`
		8778
		8779	`* Extended MergeLibrary. Added per-file options of:`
		8780	`--Interface - Pull lib from Interface directory`
		8781	`--Local - Pull lib from Local directory (default)`
		8782	`--SubDir=pathname - Pull lib from a subdirectory`
		8783	`Note: xxxx,pathname still works`
		8784
		8785	`* Added "jats label" to provide a number of useful labeling`
		8786	`operations.`
		8787
		8788	`* Added extensive help to JATS. JATS -man.`
		8789
		8790	`* Added this manual ChangeLog file`
		8791
		8792	`Minor changes`
		8793	`* Added an 'ebin' command to jats to allow the JATS binary tools to`
		8794	`be run in a controlled environment from the command line.`
		8795
		8796	`* Prune the list of library paths passed through to the various`
		8797	`toolsets. If a directory does not have any files in it then the`
		8798	`directory is not added to the library path.`
		8799
		8800	`Thus if a library is located in xxxx/lib/WIN32 then JATS will`
		8801	`not add the xxxx/lib to the path.`
		8802
		8803	`* cbuilder will now look in all VOBs for the user specified label.`
		8804	`The program has a list of "known" labels which it will search`
		8805	`first in an attempt to speed up the process.`
		8806
		8807	`* The AddFlags directive will issue a warning if the flags does not`
		8808	`begin with a -D or a -U. The user should not be using compiler`
		8809	`specific flags.`
		8810
		8811	`* The use of linker flags will issue a warning.`
		8812
		8813	`* Process the common makefile.pl after the toolset has been`
		8814	`determined. This allows the toolset to extend the CompileOptions`
		8815	`such they are available to the common makefile.pl.`
		8816
		8817	`* Added the WIN32 CompileOptions "jats_v1" to force JATS to specify`
		8818	`a number of compile time definitions used by earlier versions of`
		8819	`JATS.`
		8820
		8821	`* Fixed bug in the --Debug option to the PackageProg directives that`
		8822	`caused both the production and debug versions to be packaged.`
		8823
		8824	`* The gen_msproject utility now creates simpler names for the MS`
		8825	`projects that it creates. The name no longer contains the full`
		8826	`pathname, thus making them shorter and readable.`
		8827
		8828	`* The ShowDlls utility now handles absolute and relative paths to`
		8829	`the initial DLL or EXE.`
		8830
		8831	`* Correct problem in which the use of Generate/Rule directives may`
		8832	`fail since prerequisite subdirectories were not being created`
		8833	`since the "generate" phase was not being run.`
		8834
		8835	`Added messages to prompt the user to remove Generate, Generated`
		8836	`and Rule directives. Use the GenerateFiles directive`
		8837
		8838	`* JATS.BAT file will exclude LINUX builds by default.`
		8839
		8840	`* The make NODEPEND=1 processing now does not recurse at all.`
		8841	`Previously each subdirectory was visited - only to do nothing.`
		8842
		8843	`* Correct a problem in creating stub libraries for MOS targets if`
		8844	`the stub library object was not listed with the SharedLib's`
		8845	`objects.`
		8846
		8847	`* Correct a problem with the MS Studio support. The invoked make`
		8848	`command is XXX_all_debug. There was a problem with this command in`
		8849	`that it did not do any dependancy checking and would not always`
		8850	`build defendants.`
