I- Functionnal changes:
=======================

I-1 Configuration & version management
--------------------------------------

Configuration management interface has been improved and now supports separate lock and unlock actions. New 
shell scripts (*lock.sh and *unlock.sh) are located within config/internalTools directory.
- When a design is loaded in mode rw, scripts *lock.sh then *out.sh are executed
- When a design is loaded in ro mode, only the script *out.sh is executed
- When a design is saved, the script *in.sh is executed
- When a design is closed, the script *unlock.sh is executed

New properties in the initialization file specify the name of the lock and unlock scripts:
- CheckLockProcedure : default value is: copylock
- CheckUnlockProcedure : default value is: copyunlock

I-2 Requirements traceability
-----------------------------

New properties in the initialization files may be used to specify the commands that are used by Stood 
to collect a list of requirements from Reqtify
- ReqtifyListCommand=openProject("""$RQTFFILE""").docList("""$OUTPUTFILE""")
- ReqtifyGetCommand=openProject("""$RQTFFILE""").requirementList("""$OUTPUTFILE""","""$DOCNAME""")

I-3 Updated support of HRT-HOOD
-------------------------------

HRT-HOOD objects may now be directly created from the menu (cyclic, sporadic and protected objects), 
and the Real-Time attributes are now encompassed within the architectural design model (they are no more saved 
inside separate files).

The consequences of this change are:
- A new version of the storage format (files *.sto) meaning upwards compatibility only
- Removing of several properties in the initialization files (stood.ini or .stoodrc): 
HOOD extension definition, HRT tabs definition.
- The DataBase definition file has been updated to support this change
- The requirements checker has been updated to support this change
- The predefined doc_schemes have been updated to support this change

I-4 Code generators
-------------------

Recent improvements to the Ada code generator:
- ADA168 (13.06.01) managing untyped constants renaming
- ADA169 (18.07.01) new code for state & transitions

And to the C code generator:
- C046 (17.10.01) change in the truncation mode for long comments lines

I-5 Document generators
-----------------------

The bug that avoided the diagrams to be inserted into printed documents has been fixed.
