Release Notes

Externals version: LCGCMT_60b

General Changes

• Modified the way dependencies are computed on Unix: make gcc generate them at the same time of the compilation
  (Hubert Degaudenzi)
• Fixed VC9 warnings:
  • Replaced C-style string manipulation and formatting with C++ (and Boost) implementations.
  • Disabled some warnings.
  (Marco Clemencic)
• Introduced two new incidents: BeginProcessing and EndProcessing. They are needed to reintroduce the signals around the processing loop as it was the case for BeginEvent and EndEvent before GaudiSvc v17r0.
  (Marco Clemencic)
• Patch #4722: detect unprotected DEBUG and VERBOSE messages
  (Charles Leggett, Marco Clemencic)
