4836 3969 d 18 h dpurdie /core_devl/branches/dpurdie_3.5.10000.cr/ Created by Jats svn branch  
4688 4043 d 11 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ * EnvVars
Added GBE_DPKG_REPLICA. This read-only package store is scanned
before GBE_DPKG. It is intended to facilitate remote build
servers that have a local package archive replica.

* Autobuild support for Java Based Packages
Attempt to overcome shortcomings in ant-using in a remote build
environment. Set GBE_DPKG to GBE_DPKG_REPLICA if doing an ABT enabled
build and GBE_DPKG_REPLICA is defined.

* Jats caching
Modified the cache mechanism such that if the required version is
found in the cache, then it will not be refreshed. This should speed
up jats startup.
 
4466 4137 d 14 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ Extended the Data Base Interface to allow access to the ClearQuest Database
Will be used in the generation of Release Notes
 
4135 4316 d 12 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ Prepare for release. Update change log  
3967 4514 d 12 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ Merge work to trunk for Version: 3.2.0000.cr  
3832 4578 d 18 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ Major changes:
* New Platform: INTELLECT
Support for Intellect PAX.
This support does not extend to native building of PAX modules. It is
intended to 'wrap' the existing PAX Build system.

The body of the Pax Building infrastructure is not within the JATS core
but is to be provided though a JATS plugin.
 
3559 4610 d 19 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/  
1329 4887 d 17 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ Major changes:
* Subversion Repository location
The correct paths to the various SubVersion repositories is:
GBE_SVN_URL_AUPERASVN01: https://auperasvn01.aupera.erggroup.com/svn
GBE_SVN_URL_FRBESASVN01: http://frbesasvn01.frbesa.erggroup.com/svn
Windows users may need to update there jats.bat file.
These are Fully Qualified Domain Names.

Minor changes:
* Jats startup warning introduced in 2.100.5000.cr
Now accepts both / and \ as path separators.

* Utility: svnrelease
Modified the operation of the '-branch' to better mimic the ClearCase
operation of the same command. If the specified branch exists, then it
will be used, otherwise it will be created based on the specified tag.

* Utility: svnsave_build
Modify the operation such that the 'author' of the saved build is set to
that of the user that created the version that that build is based upon.
This preserves the history of the build a lot better than tagging all
builds as being done by 'buildadm'.

* Utility: ccdelete_view
Allow the user to specify ClearCase viewtags or a viewstore path.

* Utility: sandbox
Added options to control the packages processed. The user can specify
a range of packages and exclude or include specific packages.

Subcommand: populate
Added -exclude=name[,name]+ to allow specific packages to be excluded
Add -all option to force dependency testing of packages already in the
sandbox.

* Subversion Support
With an automated build environment the use of a default Subversion
repository is not supported.

Creating a workspace will display the files being extracted providing
a progress indication.

* Jats Online Documentation
Migrated several items from the VIX Wiki to the FAQ section of the
online documentation.

* Generated makefiles
Improved tracing of package archive source in comments
 
399 4950 d 15 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ New Platform: WCENAUTIZX5

379 5016 d 12 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Major changes:

* WIN32 Target (Visual Studio 6)
This target will now consume headers/libraries from a VS6 directory.
This has been provided to allow the use of Dinkumware_STL to be limited
to this one compiler. Specifically we need to excluded the use of
Dinkumware from VS2010 builds.

* C# Toolchain
Correctly detect missing .cs file in .resx /.cs file pair.

Minor changes:
* Jats wrapper script
New option: -logfile=name

jats.bat example (Windows)
jats.sh example (Unix)
Redefined location of the Perth Subversion server AUPERASVN01

* Escrow build on solaris_x86
Added workaround for strange issue on X86 based Solaris machines
The GBE_MACHTYPE EnvVar would disappear during the build process

* Utility ccrelease
The -extractfiles option nolonger uses a dynamic view to perform the
extraction. It uses the same process as normal view creation.

* Utility: svn
Improved package import processing.
Allow Date, Author and Log to be added to the imported package

* Jats Utility: gen_cots
Added support for Subversion.
Subversion is supported on Windows and Unix.
ClearCase is supported on Windows.

* Jats Utility: vcsdiff
New Utility. Will diff two versions of a package. Supports
mixed ClearCase and Subversion versions.
Under windows it can invoke BeyondCompare
Under Windows and Unix it can perform a MD5 check over both directories.
 
361 5289 d 5 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Major changes:
* HTML Help (Experimental)
Generated documentation for the various JATS utilities
It is based on the internal JATS documentation available on the command
line.

Use http://auperaunx26.aupera.erggroup.com/devl/core_devl2/HTML/index.html

Minor changes:
* PackageFile directive
Allow packaging of files with a comma in the name.
Used by some COTS packages.

* Windows utilities used by jats
stdmux and rpccpp: provide production versions that do not use debug
libraries as these are not present for all users.

* Jats utility: dstatus
Shows the user friendly host name rather then the internal machine name.
This change is in line with the changes to Release Manager

* Utility: svnrelease
Better deletion of workspaces referenced with non-standard URLs
Corrected problem with -branch=name option

* Utility: svnrelease and ccrelease
Better deletion of workingspace directory.
Attempt to correct for directory permission problems.

* Updated definition of GBE_SVN_URL_FRBESASVN01 to use
the server by name, rather than IP address: 'frbesasvn01'

* Added EnvVar GBE_VCS to control the default Version Control System
employed by the 'jats release' and 'jats extract' commands.

Usable values are: 'cc' and 'svn'.
The default value is 'cc', providing backward compatability to existing
developers.
 
353 5396 d 12 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Minor changes:
* EnvVars
Support for GBE_SVN_URL_xxx to support multiple SubVersion repositories
at multiple locations.

* Build tool support: jats_vcssave_build
New option -isawip to allow deprecation of -wiplabel option in
a future release.
 
331 5635 d 4 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Minor changes:
* Jats label command
New option '-entireview' to be used by the build daemon
Not recommended for general use.
Will locate the root of the current view and label all files and
directories within the current view.

Removed the double check of labeled files introduced in
version 2.80.3000.cr as the problem has been found and corrected
elsewhere.

* Jats save_build
Use a better set of options of 'cleartool find' to speed up
the determination of a branch.

Use the -entireview option of the jats label utility to speed
up labeling by the build daemons.

* Jats build
Better handling of sandboxed packages.
Indicates that the dependency is from a sandbox
No overwrite warnings when reinstalling a package

* Borland6 toolset
Changed the default value of where Borland6 is installed
to match the documented install location of:
c:\BCB6\CBuilder6

* Jats build
Added -noforce option to only generate build files if they
are out of date. It will only recreate makefiles if needed.
This is a very quick operation.

The default operation is '-force'. This will populate the
interface directory and generate makefiles.

* Jats all [Experimental. Feed back welcome]
Uses the '-noforce' form of the build command such that build
files are only recreated if need be.

The 'all' command will do what is needed in order to rebuild
the package. It will do a build, if need be, and then
make the package.

* Jats sandbox
The 'all' command will perform a '-noforce' build followed by a make.

The 'build' command will perform a build followed by a make. This will
be a complete build of all component packages.

The 'jats sandbox all' command can be used to rebuild all
components in an efficient manner. If the build files have changed,
then the makefiles will be regenerated, other wise only the make phase
is performed.
 
327 5698 d 7 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Major changes:
* New compiler support
Support for the Keil Arm V4.03a compiler
This is enabled via:
build.pl: BuildPlatforms ( 'H400,--Version=4.03a' );
 
297 5984 d 12 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Major changes:
* Jats Command line and -java option
This version will place the specified javas bin directory into
the PATH. Thus the commands:
jats -java=1.6 eprog java -version
jats -java=1.6 ant build
will work as expected

Minor changes:
* VS2008 Toolset
Picking up incorrect config details
May result in a warning message.

* gen_cots utility
New option to allow use without ClearCase dependencies.
Its simply creates a buildable package image.

* DELPHI7 toolset
Correct the definition of the Debug option -$D+
In debug mode, add $DELPHI/lib/debug to the search paths
 
289 6033 d 11 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Major changes:
* New Platform: DELPHI7
Support the creation of Units,Libraries, Packages and Programs using
Borlands Delphi Version 7.

See Jats Reference Manual for complete details and Delphi specific options
to the Prog and SharedLib directives.

This toolset has a number of limitations:
1) It can build either Debug or Production, but not both, in a single
makefile.pl. This is caused by the Delphi limitation that library
names cannot be changed.

2) The generation of dependencies between the source and the generated
artifacts is very simplistic.

Units are generated with the Lib directive. The name of the Unit and the
name of the source are linked. The source should not be provided.
ie: Lib (*, MyUnit );
Will create a unit called MyUnit.dcu from the source file MyUnit.pas

Packages are generated with the SharedLib directive starting with a .dpk
file.
ie: SharedLib ( *, MyPackage );
will create a package called MyPackage.bpl/dcp from the source file
MyPackage.dpk.

Libraries are generated with the SharedLib directive starting with a .dpr
file.
ie: SharedLib ( *, MyDll );
will create a package called MyDll.dll/lib from the source file
MyDll.dpr.

Programs are generated with the Prog directive starting with a .dpr
file.
ie: Prog ( *, MyProg );
will create a package called MyProg.exe from the source file
MyProg.dpr.

Minor changes:
* New EnvVar: DELPHI7
Required only if Borland Delphi 7 has not being installed in the
standard location or if the Windows Short Name is not
c:\PROGRA~1\Borland\Delphi7

* BuildVersion directive
Added a Style of Delphi to allow the generation of version information
in a Delphi Unit.

Modified the operation of the C style generation.
If the name of the file is provided via --File, then the generated files
will be known to JATS and can be consumed from any makefile. JATS will
know the location of the files.

* Sanity test on the names of libraries and programs
Some characters are not allowed: ie: / as this is a mistake.
 
287 6074 d 12 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Major changes:
* Correctly generate dependencies for C++ only builds
Many tools sets ( gcc and others) would not generate makefile dependency
information for purely C++ builds.

* Jats.bat and Jats.sh now provide a Read Only username/password for
Realease Manager and Deployment Manager.



Minor changes:
* The jats option '-noexportvars' deletes selected JATS EnvVars from the
environment. This only affects the build daemons.

* updatenodespec utility
Correct the SQL statements to work with ReadOnly access to the Deployment
Manager database.
 
283 6130 d 9 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Major changes:
* New Platform: H400
Supported by the KIELARMV3 toolset.
Refer to the Jats Reference Manual for toolset specific options

Minor changes:
* MergeLibrary directive
Allow a library that has been created in the same makefile.pl as the
directive to be located, without the need to 'install' it first.
 
279 6145 d 7 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Major changes:
* GBE_BUILDFILTER configuration has been simplified

JATS will automatically filter out target platforms that cannot be built
on the users machine. ie: It will not try to build Solaris targets on a
Windows machine. Thus, under the new scheme a Windows GBE_BUILDFILTER need
not contains '!SOLARIS'

This greatly simplifies the creation of GBE_BUILDFILTER as it does not
need to be configured to exclude targets that cannot by built.

Existing GBE_BUILDFILTER definitions are backward compatible.

* Jats utility : gen_cots
Requires the user to specify a target VOB with the -vob option
Ensures the user is aware of the target VOB

Now creates temporary directory within the users TEMP directory.
Addresses problems where the user's CWD is within the package being
processed.

Removed the '-delete' option
Always delete the temp work directory if it exists.

Minor changes:
* Sandbox command
Added build, make, clean, clobber commands

Sandbox packages may contain a file called 'stop', to exclude the
target from consideration in the build set.

* MCR Toolset
This toolset only supports 16 compiler search paths. An descriptive error
has been added to detect and report on this error.

* WIN32 and PHARLAP toolsets
The --Resource=xxx option specifies a comma separated list of files.
Spaces are now allowed either side of the comma.
ie: "--Resource=file1.h, File2.h"

* Jats run_test command
Removed a non-fatal warning message that was being generated when the
tests we run on a Window machine.

* descpkg file
Now contains HOSTNAME of the build machine
Not (yet) aggregated when packages are merged

* built.<machine> tag files created by create_dpkg
Now contains build trace information
Date-Time, Machine, User, ABT config

* jats abt command simplified usage
This command now appends the current directory as a library path to ANT if
it contains 'jar' files.

Uses ANT 1.6 as the default version of ANT

Both changes will simplify the use of this command within the escrow
environment. ie: 'jats abt -buildfile=build1.xml'

* BuildVersion directive
Form:
BuildVersion ('--Style=C');
now works as expected.
Slightly better error detection on the directives arguments.
 
235 6509 d 10 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Major changes:
* New Toolset: BORLAND
The toolset uses the Borland C++ Builder 6 to build Borland Project
files via the MakeProject directive.

In this release there is no support for native compilation and linking.

Details are provided in MASS-00166 JATS Reference Manual

Minor changes:
* Extract/Release utility.
Handle Source Path option with spaces by creating a config spec
that can handle spaces

* MOS Compiler
The TMP directory used by the assembler will be created before the
assembler is invoked. This will ensure that the directory exists.

* Utility: create_dpkg
Uses the first 'descpkg' file found. Allows packages that have embedded
descpkg files to be copied.

* AVR_IAR Toolset
Added support for AT90SC144144CT - by David Payne.

* JATS ANT command
Better selection of the ant build file

* Build directive: BuildVersion
Extended the WinRc version file to allow the name of an icon to be
embedded in the .RC file.
 
229 6549 d 4 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Major changes:
* Jats Release Mechanism
Jats can now release itself. This is not the same a building all of its
internal components, but it does mean that a new version of JATS can be
released using the 'standard' mechanism.

Jats releases will be tracked in Release Manager.

A side effect of this is that the labelling scheme will change to align
itself with Release Manager. ie: package_name_package_version

* Running Jats
Running Jats from within a ClearCase view is being deprecated.
Jats should be run from a package present in dpkg_archive.
This may affect some windows developers.

This release of JATS can be run from ClearCase, but generates a warning.
Future versions will generate an error.

Refer to MASS-00164 Installing and Using JATS.

Minor changes:
* Perl Version Check
Jats will generate a warning if the version of Perl in use is newer
than the version used in test. Newer versions are not always backward
compatible. Currently JATS has been extensively tested with 5.8.8.

* Build Directive: BuildVersion
This directive has been extended to allow the creation of a 'properties'
file. This file may be used to pass version information into a an ANT
build.

* Jats Internals
Minor fix to interwork with Perl version 5.10.
Perl 5.10 has not been extensively tested - yet.

* Jats Tool: CCbc2
Added utility to use BeyondCompare (BC2) to compare files in two
packages defined as ClearCase labels. The utility creates two dynamic views
and starts BeyondCompare. The views are destroyed at the end of the
process.

Requires BeyondCompare to be installed in its default location.
Only works under Windows.

Use jats CCbc2 -help (or -man) for further details.

* Jats test runtime helper scripts set_PLATFORM.sh
Marked as executable, so that users can run them directly

* Jats test runtime helper scripts set_PLATFORM.bat
Uses SETLOCAL / ENDLOCAL to prevent environment variables being exported
into the parent space. This mimics the behaviour of Unix.

* Jats eprog
Consistent cross-platform handling of programs found in the current
directory.

* jats tool jats_metrics
A new utility that will be used by the Automated Build System to collect
build metrics.
 
227 6572 d 10 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
First Release in Release Manager
Major changes:

Minor changes:
* Jats Tool: create_dpkg
Added options to allow the utility to sanity test the package name and
version of the package being created. This is intended to be used by the
automated build system. New options are:
-pname=Package_Name
-pversion=Package_Version

Added option to allow the source package form to be tested, without
transferring the package. New options are:
-test

* Jats Tool: CCdiff
-output=filename now works. Previously only -out=filename worked.
-vob=name does not generate internal message under unix

* JATS Environment variables GBE_BUILDFILTER and GBE_PLATFORM can be either
a space separated or a comma separated list.

* Solaris Toolset
Disable the use of purify, purecov and quantify when building shared
libraries. Shared libraries are not supported by these tools. Executable
programs are still supported.
