339 5586 d 2 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Major changes:
* SharedLib directives for Solaris and GCC targets.
Added support to control the 'soname' embedded within the shared
library. Refer the MASS-00166 for full details. Use with care.
 
335 5587 d 8 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Major changes:
* [DEVI-062103]
Many (11) toolsets - all that generate linker dependency
files for creating shared libraries or programs.
Solaris, Gcc, WIN32, Wince, MOS, Verix, Keil, AVR_IAR,
CSHARP, MCR, Pharlap.

Better, simpler, and in some cases correct, generation
of dependency files used in linking. Also generate separate
files for Production and Debug builds.

Minor changes:
* Jats sandbox command
The 'info' subcommand will highlight external packages that cannot be
found in any of the the package archives.

* Jats release -extract
The ClearCase view that is created will have a comment tag added that
describes:
- the directory in which the user created the view
- the date of creation

* PackageFile directive
Now supports --NoRecurse and --Recurse in conjunction with --DirTree

Internal:
* PackageFile, PackageHdr and InstallHdr directives
Removed --Abs option - its not supported
Fixed --Full option.
 
331 5649 d 1 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are out of date.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.
 
329 5702 d 10 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Minor changes:
* RunTest directive
Corrected problems with the --Var(xxxx) option when used in conjunction
with the --abspath option.
 
325 5723 d 9 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Minor changes:
* jats label command - Renaming a label
Address issue when renaming a label when the current ClearCase view is
based on the label. All operation after the rename must specify the VOB
name as ClearCase may no longer be able to determine the VOB.

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

* Jats Sandbox stop files
Added 'stop.<GBE_MACHTYPE>' stop files to better support multi
platform builds.

* Makefile rebuild test correctly locates interface directory in
cases where the source directory is above the build file in the
directory tree.

* New command: jats man
Produces full help on a specified item.
 
321 5796 d 9 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Major changes:
* Makefile directive helper function: If
Used within another directive to enable or disable arguments passed to the
outer directive. The first argument is a 'platform' specifier - as in
all Jats Make directives. If making for the specified platform, then the
remainder of the arguments are inserted into the directives argument
stream.

Example:

SharedLib ( '*', 'mySharedLib', @OBJS
, If ('WIN32', '-llibrary1', '-llibrary2' )
, If ('SOLARIS', '-llibrary3' )
);
Minor changes:
* Makefile directive: InstallLibs
Correctly installs, as libraries, files that are specified with a 'Src'
directive. This is consistent with the operation of the PackageLibs
directive.

* GCC Toolkit
Changes to the shared library dependency processing to bring it inline
with other toolers. Will terminate after determining that some
libraries cannot be found. This will ensure that the error message is at
the point of termination.

* Jats save_build utility
Corrected problem in unreserving a reserved checkout of a build.pl file
under windows.

* Jats sandbox
ClearCase views created with in the sandbox are created with a tag that
is named after the sandbox. This allows multiple instances of a view
in different sandboxes.
 
317 5823 d 2 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Minor changes:
* WinCe Toolsets
New CompileOptions operations:
Exceptions - Enable exception handling
noExceptions - Disable
Default is to retain backward compatibility. It is mixed.
Example:
CompileOptions ('*', 'Exceptions' );

* Solaris targets
Full support for a target called SOLARIS8_SPARC32
It is identical to SOLARIS in a 'sparc' build machine, but it is only
available on a 'sparc' build machine. Can be used to limit builds to one
machine type.
 
315 5825 d 4 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version: 2.82.0000.cr Released:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Major changes:
* New Build Platform: VB6
Jats has been enhanced to support the building of VB6 .vbg and .vbp
project files.

* Build Directive BuildVersion.
This has been extended to allow the creation of Version Information in a
form that can be consumed by Visual Basic using '--Style=VB'

Minor changes:
* Added more internal documentation
Use jats help to see available documentation

* Jats label -info command [DEVI-059929]
Fixed problem that prevent this command running on Unix systems.

* Jats save_build utility
Corrected problem in unreserving a reserved checkout of a build.pl file
under windows.

* Solaris 10, 64 Bit Sparc Builds
All compiles are done in a position independent manner (-KPIC)
This solved issues where static libraries are linked into shared
libraries.

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


Internal changes:
* Moved 'jats vars' functionality into a separate program
Moved associated documentation into the jats_vars tool

* Moved some other internal documentation into InstallationNotes and
PkgArchive topics.
 
311 5857 d 4 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Internal changes
* Created a Pseudo package to describe the interface directory
This simplifies the various scanning algorithms within JATS
Useful side effects include:

JATS plugins will be sourced from the interface directory if included
with a BuildPkgArchive. This will simplify debugging.

[DEVI-059682] QtBase can be consumed via a BuildPkgArchive directive,
simplifying the process of packaging additional fonts.

[DEVI-059685] Simplify implementation of --FromPackage options in other
tools, which obviates the need for QtBase to be consumed via a
BuildPkgArchive
 
305 5892 d 10 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Minor changes:
* Generating makefiles
Ensure that the 'BuildMake' directive is the last one in the build.pl file
Directives after this will not be procssed correctly and now generate
an error.

* WCEPSION_500_VS2005
Supress use of -debug:cv when building libraries.

* Build directive: BuildSrcArchive
Highly specialised directive.
Refer the JATS Manual.
 
303 5900 d 7 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Major changes:
* New target: WCEPSION_500_VS2005
A build of the Psion CE 5.0 under VS2005
This target has been added to the WINCE target.

WCEPSION_500_VS2005 build cannot consume build artifacts from the
WCEPSION_500. The two are separate.

* Support for building WinCE targets under VS2005
Currently only the WCEPSION_500_VS2005 is fully supported
Support includes
* Building of executables and DLLs via jats directives
* Building of components via VS2005 'solution' files

Minor changes:
* Build file processing
Better detection of bad platform names under Windows
Note: All platform names should be in uppercase.

* MOS builds
If a 'product' name not known to JATS is used and a board base address
is specified then no warnings are generated indicating an unknown 'product'

* MOS builds
New 'known' product: PICP
Identical to the TP5 in all but name.

* GenerateFiles directive
Better handling of '\' when passing arguments to a command line
under windows.

--AutoGenerate option will warn if one of the 'generated' files is
a source file as this disables the operation of the AutoGeneration.

* Verbose builds now show command files
Currently only supported for WIN32 and WINCE builds.

The use of 'OPTIONS=args' will cause the linker command file to be dumped
to the output stream.

This facility will be retrofitted to other platform targets in the future.

* Windows Shell
The shell provided with JATS for use under Windows has been modified so
that the COMSPEC and PATH variables are correctly formatted with '\'

Addresses issues when invoking Windows tools and programs from within JATS.

* H8S toolset
Ensure the the EnvVar CYGWIN is not set.

If 'binmode' is set then the gcc compiler used by the H8S toolset cannot
handle macros that use line continuation.

Internal changes
* WinCe builds
Changed name of internal file 'toolset/vcwce' to better represent the
content of the file.

Many internal changes to better support VS2005 and EVC

Macros to encode and decode paths with embedded spaces.
Currently only used in WIN32 and WINCE toolsets.
 
301 5947 d 2 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Minor changes:
* PackageFile directive with spaces in names.
Corrected problem.
 
299 5951 d 6 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Major changes:

Minor changes:
* DPACKAGE file created on multiple machines [DEVI-054973]
DPACKAGE files are now machine specific.
Changes are transparent to users.

* Creating static libraries without any object files is treated
as an error. The Microtec tools sets will create a 'pop-up' if
this occurs.

* The LinkSandbox directive is not allowed when GBE_ABT is set.
This directive is highly discouraged in development: Use a jats 'sandbox'
Moreover it is not reproducible and thus not supported within the
automated build framework.

* jats sandbox command
Added support to delete the sandbox metadata. This undoes the
'create' command.

* jats command aliases. Added
jats extractfiles to be jats release -extractfiles
jats extract to be jats release -extract
 
293 6046 d 6 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Minor bug fix
 
289 6047 d 8 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.
 
285 6119 d 8 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Fix DEVI-054973 for simple cases
 
283 6144 d 7 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 6159 d 4 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.
 
277 6222 d 1 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Minor changes:
* Jats Wrapper
Added -NoExportVars option to allow use of JATS to startup build daemons
without fixing the version of JATS that is used by the processes the daemon
then starts.

Limit searches for local and sandbox archives to the '/home' directory
so that the Unix auto mounter does not report errors.

* Jats makefiles. Platform Specifier
The Platform Specifier has been extended to support a '--MachType=name'
non-platform option.

This may been used to limit Java builds to a WIN32 machine if required.
 
273 6228 d 8 h dpurdie /core_devl/trunk/ DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
Minor changes:
* Jats command: sandbox
Support subcommands "clean" and "clobber"
These traverse the sandbox in the reverse direction so that the clean
up operations work correctly.

* Makefile generation
Removed warning on the use of --OnlyProd and --OnlyDebug

* JatsCopy Package
Minor enhancements to this internal package
CopyFile operation returns path to target file
CopyDir can, if asked, returns an array of files copied
Wildcard correctly supports the [0-9] construct

Internal Changes:
* Environment
Export EnvVar GBE_HOSTMACH
This is the same as GBE_MACHTYPE, but it is not modified by legacy
makefiles. Available for sanity testing.

* Remove unused references to the File::Find package in Perl scripts

* Jats building Jats now uses the JatsCopy package to perform the many
copy operations in the build.
