================================ Gaudi v22r2 =================================
================================ Gaudi v22r1 =================================
================================ Gaudi v22r0 =================================
! 2010-12-17 - Eoin Smith
 - Updated gaudirun.py and python/Gaudi/Main.py for multicore execution
   Multicore Execution with flag : --ncpus=N ( N in {-1,0,...,Z} )
     -1 : all available cores
      0 : conventional serial execution
      1 : parallel execution with 1 worker
   parallel execution generates log file named by date and time of run

================================ Gaudi v21r11 ================================
! 2010-07-28 - Marco Clemencic
 - Added dependency on pytools to be able to use Gaudi.Parallel.

================================ Gaudi v21r10 ================================
! 2010-06-23 - Marco Clemencic
 - Minor fix in Configuration.getConfigurable.

================================ Gaudi v21r9 =================================
! 2010-04-22 - Marco Clemencic
 - Use the property "ReturnCode" of the ApplicationMgr as return value of the
   application (gaudirun.py).

================================ Gaudi v21r8 =================================
! 2010-03-02 - Marco Clemencic
  - Modified the test gaudi.conf_user_autoapply to test the dependency between
    named ConfigurableUser instances.

================================ Gaudi v21r7 =================================
! 2010-01-08 - Marco Clemencic
 - Added test for bug #61144 (configuration problem for 'empty' tool handles)

================================ Gaudi v21r6 =================================
! 2009-11-09 - Marco Clemencic
 - Extended the test gaudi.propagate_properties to expose a bug affecting
   properties of type list and dict (fixed).

================ Gaudi v21r5 ====================================
! 2009-10-19 - Marco Clemencic
 - Modified the python modules Gaudi, Gaudi.Main and the script guadirun.py
   to avoid that an "import Gaudi" indirectly triggers a load of the configurables
   database (it is necessary to import Gaudi.Configuration).

! 2009-10-12 - Marco Clemencic
 - Normalization of white-spaces in Python files.
   (using http://svn.python.org/projects/python/tags/r254/Tools/scripts/reindent.py)

! 2009-10-09 - Eoin Smith
 - Patch #3297: Support for GaudiPython Parallel in gaudirun.py
   Modified gaudirun.py to accept the command line option "--parallel" to
   specify the number of workers to use.

================ Gaudi v21r4 ====================================
! 2009-07-22 - Marco Clemencic
 - Modified the the code behind "from Configuables import MyConf" to match the
   standard Python semantics: raise an exception if the configurable is not
   found.
   The meta-module "Configuables" should be deprecated in favor of
   "Gaudi.Configurables", that can also be used as in:

     import Gaudi.Configurables as cfgs
     cfgs.MyConf

   The exception for missing configurables can be disabled with

     import Gaudi.Configurables
     Gaudi.Configurables.ignoreMissingConfigurables = True

   (done by default in genconfuser.py for backward compatibility).

! 2009-07-20 - Marco Clemencic
 - Moved the use of tcmalloc from Gaudi to GaudiPolicy to make it available
   everywhere.

================ Gaudi v21r3 ====================================
================ Gaudi v21r2 ====================================
! 2009-06-25 - Marco Clemencic
 - Added support for tcmalloc (via LD_PRELOAD) in gaudirun.py (option -T/--tcmalloc).

! 2009-06-15 - Hubert Degaudenzi
 - use the new LCG tag convention.

! 2009-05-25 - Marco Clemencic
 - Fixed bug #45517: Units not taken into account in .opts files
   Added the function importUnits() to populate from python the units used in a
   .opts file.
   Added a test for the new function.

================ Gaudi v21r1 ====================================
================ Gaudi v21r0 ====================================
! 2009-04-08 - Wouter Hulsbergen
 - Added '--printsequence' to gaudirun.py to print the sequence of algorithms
   after the configuration.

! 2009-01-29 - Marco Clemencic
 - Symbol visibility
   - Updated main.cpp to use the new GAUDI_IMPORT macro.

================ Gaudi v20r4 ====================================
! 2008-12-16 - Marco Clemencic
 - Fixed bug #45392: gaudrun.py returns status code 0 even if the application
                     manager fails
   The return code of AppMgr.run is now correctly propagated.

! 2008-12-15 - Marco Clemencic
 - Added a test for the passive "depedency" of ConfigurableUser.

! 2008-12-05 - Marco Clemencic
 - Added a test for the new logic of ConfigurableUser.propagateProperty.

================ Gaudi v20r3 ====================================
! 2008-11-04 - Marco Clemencic
 - Improvements in gaudirun.py:
   - Added command line option --post-option to accept (single line) options to
     be executed after the apply of ConfigurableUser.
   - Modified --option to allow execution of the option in the actual position
     on the command line with respect to the option files.
   - Added --debug to enable some debugging print-out in gaudirun.py and in the
     Configurables.

! 2008-11-03 - Marco Clemencic
 - Added the function Gaudi.Configuration.getConfigurable to simplify the
   creation of configurable instances. If a configurable wit the give name
   exists it is returned, otherwise it is created using the name as its type or
   the specified type.

! 2008-10-30 - Marco Clemencic
 - Extended gaudirun.py to use the automatic apply of ConfigurableUser.
 - Adde the options:
   --output (to replace -p and allow dump to file in python or old options)
   --no-conf-user-apply (to disable the automatic apply of ConfigurableUser)

! 2008-10-23 - Marco Clemencic
 - Added a test for bug #42428 (properties of clones are not cloned).
 - Added the directory tests/python for modules needed for the tests
   - added a fake configurable MyToolTest into the new directory
 - Added a test for bug #43065 (Error when unpickling GaudiHandles) using the
   fake configurable MyToolTest, within a more generic (in principle) test for
   pickling (gaudi.pickle_write) and unpickling (gaudi.pickle_read).

! 2008-10-21 - Marco Clemencic
 - Minor changes in gaudirun.py to make use of the improvements in
   GaudiKernel.ProcessJobOptions.

! 2008-10-17 - Marco Clemencic
 - Fixed bug #39846. gaudirun.py creates invalid entries in flattened options
   - Use only the configurables that pass the filter "getNeededConfigurables"
     (from GaudiKernel.Proxy.Configurable) to generate pickle file or dump.
   - Added test (gaudi.bug_39846).

! 2008-08-06 - Marco Clemencic
 - Added a test for bug #39809 (wrong configuration of public tools).

! 2008-08-05 - Marco Clemencic
 - Fixed bug #39116. gaudirun.py export to old options prints '#' instead of '//'
   The fix required a review of the way messages are printed across the whole
   Configurables machinery. The Python standard logging module is now used and
   the customization in GaudiKernel.Logging has been removed.
   In printout in Python job option files should be done with the log instance
   accessible from Gaudi.Configuration.
 - Added a test for bug #39116 (gaudi.export_oldopts).

================ Gaudi v20r2 ====================================
================ Gaudi v20r1 ====================================
! 2008-06-25 - Marco Clemencic
 - Added tests for:
   - bug #38206: gaudirun.py fails to set a list property from a property
                 reference.
   - bug #38194: gaudirun.py expands too many environment variables.

================ Gaudi v20r0 ====================================
! 2008-06-13 - Marco Clemencic
 - Apply the pattern ProjectVersionHeader to generate the GAUDI_VERSION.h file.
   Added the version.cmt file too, so that the pattern works without version
   directory.

! 2008-06-05 - Marco Clemencic
 - Added tests for:
   - Bug #36742: Cannot pickle options using "PropertyReference"
   - Bug #37479: gaudirun.py fails parsing old option lines with comments
                 and quotes.
   - Bug #37488: importOptions does not expand environment variables.
   - Bug #35347: Cannot import 2 Python option files with the same name.
   - Bug #34769: Assigning a configurable to a list property does not fail.
 - Added Windows batch wrapper for gaudirun.py (gaudirun.bat).
 - Added to the command line option "--option" to gaudirun.py.
   It allows to specify Python lines to be executed after the standard
   configuration to modify it. E.g.:

     gaudirun.py default.py --option "MessageSvc().OutputLevel = DEBUG"

   A test has been added too (gaudi.cmdline_conf).

================ Gaudi v19r9 ====================================
! 2008-04-04 - Marco Clemencic
 - Bug #35201. Python options parser '//' interpreted as comment in strings.
   Added a test for the bug.

! 2008-03-07 - Marco Clemencic
 - Fixed Bug #34046. False warning when mixing Python options and old options.
   Improved the test on case sensitivity to expose the bug (if present).

! 2008-03-06 - Marco Clemencic
 - Modified Gaudi.Main.gaudimain to use the environment variables GAUDIAPPNAME
   and GAUDIAPPVERSION to set the default values for the ApplicationMgr
   properties AppName and AppVersion.

================ Gaudi v19r8 ====================================
! 2008-02-11 - Marco Clemencic
 - Added aliases for the configurables FileCatalog (Gaudi::MultiFileCatalog) and
   IODataManager (Gaudi::IODataManager).

! 2008-02-08 - Marco Clemencic
 - Modified python/Gaudi/CommonGaudiConfigurables.py to ignore missing packages,
   essentially to allow the import of Gaudi.Configuration when GaudiPoolDb is
   missing.

================ Gaudi v19r7 ====================================
! 2008-01-11 - Marco Clemencic
 - Added a test to check the late-bound references in old options
   (e.g. "MyAlg.MyProp = @AnotherAlg.AProp;").
 - Added a simple test for properties with wrong cases in (old) job options.

! 2008-01-09 - Marco Clemencic
 - Added a test to check the conversion between configurables and strings.

================ Gaudi v19r6 ====================================
! 2007-11-16 - Marco Clemencic
 - Added a couple of tests for the correct overriding of mixed options (exposing
   a bug fixed in GaudiKernel).

! 2007-11-14 - Marco Clemencic
 - Added a test for the function GaudiKernel.Configurable.purge.

! 2007-11-12 - Marco Clemencic
 - Moved the *.qmt files to the implicit suite (directory) "gaudi.qms".

! 2007-11-01 - Marco Clemencic
 - Added the function Gaudi.Configuration.configurationDict to produce the
   dictionary of configurations.
 - Minor changes in the command line options for gaudirun.py:
   - short option for "--dry-run" in now "-n"
   - the configuration is printed as dictionary by default and the old format is
     activated with the option "--old-opts" (removed "--opts-dict")
 - Added tests for the job option parser.
 - Moved "importOptions" from Gaudi.Configuration to
   GaudiKernel.ProcessJobOptions. The function is still accessible from
   Gaudi.Configuration (from Gaudi.Configuration import importOptions).

! 2007-10-29 - Marco Clemencic
 - Moved the command line logic from the class Gaudi.Main.gaudimain to the
   script gaudirun.py, using optparse instead of getopt.
 - Added an option to format the dump of the computed properties as a Python
   dictionary (formatted such that it can be evaluated in Python).
 - Renamed some command line options.
 - The different behaviors depending on the file name extension, are delegated
   to Configuration.importOptions().

! 2007-10-29 - Pere Mato
 - Adapted to new GaudiPython structure

==================== Gaudi v19r5 ======================================
! 2007-10-10 - Pere Mato
