Announcing eCos Configuration Tool 2.02


The latest version of the new Configuration Tool for Linux and Windows is 
available from:

http://sources.redhat.com/ecos/ct2.html

Various bugs are fixed, including the Windows 98 crash problem and the 
directory naming bug.

I enclose an extract from the change log below.

Regards,

Julian


*** Version 2.02, June 27th 2001

- Packages are now sorted in the Packages Dialog.
   Templates are sorted on Windows, not yet on Linux.

- There was an interaction between Configtool/TCL/Windows 98 that
   caused a GPF when saving files. This has now been worked around.

- When entering the user tools directory, Configtool now
   recognises it correctly if it contains appropriate binaries.

- The current build tools path is saved so that if the eCos
   installer wasn't used, there will be a default build tools
   path and the user won't get asked every time.

- Main window now refreshed after some dialogs close and before
   a lengthy operation for aesthetic reasons.

- The dialogs for saving and opening .ecc files now default to the
   directory of the last loaded/saved file, for convenience.

- Switched to Rich Edit control for Output Window since it has
   a higher capacity; this causes scrolling behaviour to be
   less than optimal on NT and a bit weird on Win98, so there's some
   work to do.

- Added CHANGES.txt and TODO.txt to the distribution.

*** Version 2.01, June 2001

- Clicking Save when tool was first loaded didn't do anything.
   Now behaves like Save As for a first-time save.

- Mix-up with directory names fixed.

- Windows installer now leaves existing DLLs intact even if
   the installer's files were newer.

- The Unix tarball now contains a subdirectory containing the current
   version in the name.
