<p>This document describes the changes made to the Reltool system
from version to version. The intention of this document is to
list all incompatibilities as well as all enhancements and
bugfixes for every release of Reltool. Each release of Reltool
thus constitutes one section in this document. The title of each
section is the version number of Reltool.</p>
<section><title>Reltool 0.5.2</title>
<section><title>Improvements and New Features</title>
<list>
<item>
<p>
The documentation is now built with open source tools
(xsltproc and fop) that exists on most platforms. One
visible change is that the HTML frames are removed.</p>

<p>
In the new release of Reltool (0.5) there is a severe bug
that may cause your source files to be deleted. The bug
is triggered when you generate a target system WITH
archive files AND your library directories are given with
absolute paths. (Library directories are given with the
ERL_LIBS environment variable or with the lib_dirs
configuration parameter.)</p>

<p>
The tool is still experimental. Feedback is appreciated. </p>
<p>
Major improvements of the target system generation has
been performed. Now it is possible to generate a
relocatable target system that does not need to be
re-installed if it is moved to a new location. Archive
files are automatically generated. A detailed
specification of the target system can be generated
without actually creating the target system. Relocatable
escripts are put in the bin directory of the target
system. etc. etc.</p>
<p>
Some new functions has been introduced in the
<c>reltool</c> module: <c>start/1, start_link/1,
get_config/3, get_target_spec/1 and
eval_target_spec/3</c>.</p>
<p>
Some new configuration parameters has been introduced:
<c>profile, incl_sys_filters, excl_sys_filters,
incl_app_filters, excl_app_filters, incl_archive_filters,
excl_archive_filters, archive_opts, escript and
relocatable</c>.</p>
<p>
Some parameters have been obsoleted and given new
semantics: <c>incl_erts_dirs (incl_sys_filters),
excl_erts_dirs (excl_sys_filters), incl_app_dirs
(incl_app_filters), excl_app_dirs (excl_app_filters) and
escripts (escript).</c></p>
