Record types were not setting many 'last value' fields at initialization, +assuming that the VAL field would always hold the default value and thus not +giving correct initial monitor behavior in some circumstances.
+ +Fixed crash when ALG (algorithm) was changed to Average at runtime.
+ +Variable definitions in a configure/RELEASE file may now use the +:= or ?= assignment syntax. Release file processing now +prints a warning if an include file can't be not found (use -include if +this is expected) or if an undefined macro is used, and aborts if a circular +definition is expanded. The variable EPICS_HOST_ARCH can now be used, +but target-architecture-specific values must be set in a target-specific +configure/RELEASE file such as RELEASE.Common.linux-x86.
+ +Added build support for the latest Wind River release.
+ +Changes to the way in which we generate header dependency files, which are +now named with a .d suffix instead of .depends. We now use +the compiler to generate these if possible, and create them in the +O.$(T_A) directory.
+ +We now install libraries and other non-executable files with mode 444 rather +than 644.
+ +In some circumstances a string received from CA might not have been properly +zero-terminated; this has now been fixed. CA::create_subscription() +would not accept a zero for the subscription array length; this is now +permitted, in the underlying CA API this means use the native length from the +server.
+ +Different Linux distributions have different requirements when linking +readline; some need -lcurses, others -lncurses and others +don't require either. The configure/os/CONFIG_SITE.Common.linux-* +files now make this configuration easy to choose between different settings for +the COMMANDLINE_LIBRARY variable.
+Three new options were added to the caget and camonitor
