OpenVMS ALPBASR02_070 Alpha V6.2 - V7.0 BASRTL ECO Summary

NOTE: An OpenVMS saveset or PCSI installation file is stored on the Internet in a self-expanding compressed file. The name of the compressed file will be kit_name-dcx_vaxexe for OpenVMS VAX or kit_name-dcx_axpexe for OpenVMS Alpha. Once the file is copied to your system, it can be expanded by typing RUN compressed_file. The resultant file will be the OpenVMS saveset or PCSI installation file which can be used to install the ECO. *OpenVMS] ALPBASR02_070 Alpha V6.2 - V7.0 BASRTL ECO Summary Copyright (c) Digital Equipment Corporation 1996. All rights reserved. PRODUCT: OpenVMS Alpha COMPONENT: BASIC Run-Time Library (BASRTL) SOURCE: Digital Equipment Corporation ECO INFORMATION: ECO Kit Name: ALPBASR02_070 ECO Kits Superseded by This ECO Kit: ALPBASR01_070 ALPBASR02_062 ALPBASR01_062 ECO Kit Approximate Size: 2187 Blocks Saveset A - 198 Blocks Saveset B - 990 Blocks Saveset C - 990 Blocks Cover Letter - 9 Blocks Kit Applies To: OpenVMS Alpha V6.2, V7.0 System/Cluster Reboot Necessary: No Installation Rating: 3 - To be installed on all systems running the listed versions of OpenVMS which are experiencing the problems described. ECO KIT SUMMARY: An ECO kit exists for DEC$BASRTL.EXE OpenVMS Alpha V6.2 through V7.0. This kit addresses the following problems: Problems addressed in ALPBASR02_070: o A BASIC program may ACCVIO or hang in an infinite loop in DEC$BASRTL if AST calls a BASIC routine. Problems addressed in ALPBASR01_070: o The last build got a link warning from another facility. Problems addressed in ALPBASR02_062: o Did not properly account for linked chain of XABs, some of which needed virtual memory to be freed. Problems addressed in ALPBASR01_062: o Matrix multiply of D-Float types always produces integer results. o The lib$signal of an error produced a fatal and aborted program, preventing other handlers' recovery. o Lib$signal caused program to lose local dynamic store, and execute incorrect code. INSTALLATION NOTES: The system does not need to be rebooted after this kit is installed. However, if you have other nodes in your OpenVMS VMScluster, they should be rebooted or you should install this kit on each system in order to make use of the new image(s).
