             xdc-F03 (corevers:16.0.2.0; B:200,G:200,R:200)

                       eXpanDed C Tools (XDCtools)

    This tree contains the RTSC build and configuration engines for
    target content. The tree is used in XDCtools 3.50 product releases. This
    series of trees breaks compatibility with XDCtools 3.32 and older.

Librarian repo creation
-----------------------
    The xdc.git repo was created to "track" the repo maintained at 
    eclipse.org and was created as follows:
        git clone --bare ssh://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/rtsc/org.eclipse.rtsc.xdccore.git xdc.git
	cd xdc.git
        git config remote.origin.fetch "+refs/heads/*:refs/heads/*"

BUILD	

    o setup ssh to enable "git" from xlibrary as "dr" (if necessary) 
	cd ~xlibrary/.ssh
	cp -f config-dr config

    o fetch the latest changes from the Eclipse git server
	cd xdc.git
	git fetch

    o Build this tree from Linux using standard SM-MAKE
    
        # clone the tree and merge/review user content
        ggentree -u sascha@ti.com xdc.git/
        cd xdc-F??

	# unzip build.zip from the last released tree
	unzip ../xdc-F??/build.zip

        # make sure the user email and name are your eclipse credentials 
        git merge origin/xdccore-E-dr

        # build the tree using LSF to force older GLIBC to be used when
	# linking Linux executables
        SM-MAKE .clean
        SM-MAKE .all-files >& Make.log 

        # update README 
        emacs README
        git commit -a -m xdc-F??

        # release the tree
        greltree -m "something brief and meaningful"

    o to make both the UNIX and PC sides, from a Linux workstation, go to the
      top directory of the tree and type:

	SM-MAKE .all-files

      To clean the tree, type:

        SM-MAKE .clean

    o to build only packages in src/packages from scratch:

    	SM-MAKE .xdc-packages

    o to build bundles:

    	SM-MAKE .bundles

    o to run regressions:

        SM-MAKE .regress

CHANGES

xdc.bld	    xdc.exe is compiled with NX bit set to 0. It was done to fix the
	    crashes, but that bit might not be the real cause for the crashes.
	    However, it was left on 0 until we have a longer time to test,
	    which will be after 3.51 GA.

configuro   ucrtbase.dll has a bug described in the comments right before the
	    changed code that implements a workaround.

xdc.services.host.lib
	    we switched to using _execve on Windows instead of _spawnvpe
	    because _execve on Windows is now POSIX-compliant, and the parent
	    process is completely replaced by the child process assuming
	    _execve doesn't fail.
