The primary -factor in the decision to make such a sweeping change was conflicts -between the the RTEMS and POSIX API's. - - -TO UPDATE YOUR APPLICATION: -=========================== - -The update script requires that Perl be installed on your computer. -It has only been tested with Perl 5.x. - -After RTEMS has been built, in the directory "$r//update_tools", will -be a set of tools to aid in making the application source changes necessary -to address (hopefully) all of the name changes in the RTEMS API between -releases 3.1.0 and 3.2.0. - -The update shell script is the only executable which is invoked by the -user directly.

It should be something similar -to the following: - -cd MY_APP -$r//update-tools/update - -The update script will ask if you have backed up your source code before -beginning the update process. While operating on files, it will print -the name of each file and a dot for each change made to the source file. - -NOTE: These scripts do not attempt to address changes in calling - sequences.
