6 Other Changes:

     6 - Combine Linking and Postlinking into a single step

     7 Combine Linking and Postlinking into a single step

     7 - New 'Patchable Constants' target type: TARGETTYPE pdll

     8 New 'Patchable Constants' target type: TARGETTYPE pdll

     8 - Support exit codes from next version of the trace compiler which will issue them

     9 Support exit codes from next version of the trace compiler which will issue them

     9 - New sbs_filter script and batchfile to ease the use of sbs_filter.py.  

    10 New (experimental) FilterWhatComp filter.  Simulates abld log output for use with parse_what.pl for packing up zips by component.

    10     Allows filters to be executed over a log after a build has been done.

    11 New graphical build visualisation tool (bin/timelines.py). Requires pygame and PyOpenGL. 

    11     e.g.

    12 New a log analyser for recording the total time spent in each type of recipe in the build (recipestats.py). 

    12   	sbs_filter --filters=FilterWhat < logfile.log 

    13     (This runs a "--what" without regenerating any makefiles or reparsing

    14     the matadata.)

    15 - New (beta) FilterWhatComp filter.  Simulates abld log output for

    16    use with parse_what.pl for packing up zips by component.  Whatcomp output

    17    uses the incoming epocroot value.  i.e. if epocroot is relative then so is

    18    the what output.  e.g. if EPOCROOT=\   then the output will be of the form

    19    "\epoc32\release\armv5\...."  If it's "..\myepocroot" then the output will

    20    be "..\myepocroot\epoc32\release\armv5".  If it's absolute then the what

    21    output will also be absolute.

    22 - New FilterCheck filter.  This can be used with sbs_filter to perform the 

    23    equivalent of --check using the log output from a build.  It is more

    24    efficient than --check because the metadata is not parsed and no makefiles

    25    are generated. e.g.

    26   	sbs_filter --filters=FilterCheck < logfile.log 

    27 - New (beta) graphical build visualisation tool (bin/timelines.py). Requires pygame

    28    and PyOpenGL. e.g.  python timelines.py < filename.log

    29 - New (beta) log analyser (recipestats.py) for recording the total time spent in 

    30    each type of recipe in the build. e.g. python recipestats.py < filename.log > stats.csv

    31    The output is in CSV format.
