We were slightly delayed, but today we are finally ready to deliver another version of RSARTE 9.1.2 CP1 which we recommend for production use. We also deliver an updated evaluation version of RSARTE 10.0. Remember to only use it for evaluation and testing.
The implementation of the "context sensitive library" build feature has now been finalized. The feature is still marked as experimental in this release, but in the next delivery we expect it to be a standard (non-experimental) feature of the product. The object files that are produced when building a TC in a context sensitive way are now put together into a library rather than being linked directly with. This avoids the problem with getting too long command-lines (something which we previously attempted to solve with the gcc specific @file argument). By placing the object files in a library we now have a solution that works on all supported compilers. Note that these libraries will be limited versions of the regular libraries that are built for a prerequisite TC since they only will contain object files for referenced elements. These libraries are therefore placed in the output folder of the TC that is built. Other than this, the new version of RSARTE 9.1.2 CP1 also contains fixes for a few bugs that have been discovered.
The following have been done in this version:
In addition we have continued to improve the quality of the new version and it should now be very close to that of 9.1.2 CP1.
