* The build can't descend into external submodules when there is no
configure/RULES_TOP file present in $(INSTALL_LOCATION).
* Recreate modules/RELEASE.<host>.local if configure/CONFIG_SITE or
configure/CONFIG_SITE.local have changed.
* Move the distclean of modules/RELEASE.<host>.local to RULES_TOP
* Several comment and white-space changes
Instead of displaying the failures from each submodule at the end
of testing that submodule, RULES_TOP suppresses the output when
it detects a parent module, and RULES_MODULES adds the children's
failure lists into the parent's list so they all get shown at the
end of the tests/results.
For all standard build ACTIONS, a rule before-<action> is
run just before running that action in the subdirectories
given by the DIRS variable. Only works in Makefiles that
include RULES_DIRS or RULES_TOP.
Lists the directories with failed tests at the end of the build.
It is no longer necessary to use 'make -k' to see the results
of all tests after one or more failures as only the top-level
test-results recipe will generate a build error.
Adds PARENT_MODULE to detect when building a submodule.
RULES_TOP uses that to disable uninstall rules and abort instead of
deleting the parent's configure/ directory.
It deletes all dependency (.d) files in the O.arch directories.
This is useful when headers get moved or removed; recreating just
the dependency data is much faster than rebuilding the whole tree.
It is also possible to run the depclean.pl script manually when
only part of the tree needs its dependencies regenerating.
Idea and initial implementation from Benjamin Franksen,
I added the DIR_RULES and ACTIONS support.
Reverses the order in which cfg/CONFIG* files are included.
Useful rules:
uninstall.<arch> - Remove bin & lib directories for <arch> only.
archuninstall - Remove bin & lib directories created by this hostarch.
realuninstall - Removes ALL install dirs
Removed the -h option to convertRelease, use $ENV{EPICS_HOST_ARCH} instead.
Reworked variables associated with expandVars to make it simpler to use.
Split EPICS::Utils module into three parts.
Moved code from fullPathName.pl into the new EPICS::Path module.
Changed convertRelease.pl to use new modules.
Added some documentation to RELEASE_NOTES.html
