1.0##<SUMMARY
.B1
^THE MAIN REASON FOR THE RELEASE OF <MAKLIB ^V.2 IS THE ADDITION
OF THE ^BINARY ^PATCHING ^TOOL. (<BPT)  ^THE <BPT WAS INCLUDED TO
ALLOW SOME LEVEL OF SUPPORT FOR PRODUCTS DISTRIBUTED IN RELOCATABLE
BINARY FORMAT RATHER THAN SOURCE LEVEL.
.B1
<MAKLIB SHOULD BE COMPILED WITH <MACRO ^V50 OR LATER.
^THE LATEST DISTRIBUTED COPIES OF <MACTEN.UNV, <UUOSYM.UNV, <SCNMAC.UNV,
<HELPER.REL AND <WILD.REL SHOULD BE USED. (^SEE <MAKLIB.CTL).
^THE VERSION OF <SCAN THAT <MAKLIB USES IS <SCN7A, ALTHOUGH
ANY <SCAN ^V7 IS USABLE AS LONG AS THE APPROPRIATE CHANGES ARE
MADE TO THE <MAKLIB SOURCE.
^IN ADDITION TO THIS, TO CORRECTLY LOAD PROGRAMS CONTAINING
<MAKLIB BINARY FIXES, A VERSION OF <LINK WITH EDIT 454 MUST BE
USED.
.B3
2.0##<EXTERNAL <CHANGES
.B1
^NO EXISTING COMMANDS OR ACTIONS WERE CHANGED. ^FOR A DESCRIPTION
OF THE USE OF THE <BPT, REFER TO <MAKLIB.HLP OR <MAKLIB.MAN.
^A MORE FULL IMPLEMENTATION OF SYSTEM-STANDARD ERROR MESSAGES IS
ALSO PART OF THIS RELEASE.
.B3
3.0##<KNOWN <BUGS <AND <DEFICIENCIES
.B1
^THE MAIN USE OF THE <BPT WILL BE FOR INSTALLATION OF <DEC
SUPPLIED PATCHES TO PRODUCTS FOR WHICH THE SOURCES ARE NOT AVAILABLE.
^THE <BPT WILL WORK WITH <REL FILES PRODUCED BY <MACRO ^V50 AND <BLISS10.
^THE <BPT MAY NOT WORK WITH ANY CODE PRODUCED BY A COMPILER USING
POLISH FIXUPS OR INTERNAL FIXUPS.
.B3
4.0##<INSTALLATION <INSTRUCTIONS
.B1
^THE FEATURE TEST SWITCH <FTBPT HAS BEEN ADDED. ^ALL OF THE CODE
TO FACILITATE BINARY PATCHING IS UNDER THIS CONDITIONAL, WHICH
IS DISTRIBUTED AS "ON" (NON-ZERO) IN THE FIELD-IMAGE VERSION.
^SINCE THE CODE FOR THE <BPT COMPRISES ABOUT 80% OF
<MAKLIB, TURNING THIS SWITCH OFF IF THE <BPT IS NOT NEEDED CAN SAVE
SOME MEMORY SPACE.
.B1
^MANUAL LOADING OF <SCAN, <WILD AND <HELPER IS NO LONGER
NECESSARY AS THE <.REQUEST AND <.REQUIRE PSEUDO-OPS HAVE BEEN
ADDED TO FACILITATE AUTOMATIC REQUESTS FOR THESE ROUTINES.
.B3
5.0##<INTERNAL <CHANGES
.B1
^MUCH ADDITION AND RE-ORGANIZATION OF THE PROGRAM WAS DONE TO ENABLE
THE ADDITION OF THE <BPT. ^THE REGISTER ALLOCATION AND MUCH OF THE <IO HAS
BEEN RE-WRITTEN. ^IN ADDITION, A SMALL LOADER AND A LARGE <MACRO ASSEMBLER
HAVE BEEN ADDED TO ALLOW BINARY PATCHING. ^ALSO, A MODULE HAS BEEN
ADDED TO ALLOW <MAKLIB TO DO INTERNAL TESTS OF ITS OWN ROUTINES. ^THIS IS
A DEBUGGING FEATURE, AND IS NOT PRESENT IN THE FIELD-IMAGE VERSION.
