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. |
