OpenVMS VAXDEBU01_062 VAX V6.2 DEBUG 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.

ECO KIT SUMMARY:

An ECO kit exists for DEBUG on OpenVMS V6.2.  This kit addresses the 
following problems:                                             

Problems addressed in VAXDEBU01_062 kit

  o  There are no new problem fixes in this kit.  The kit  is  being
     re-issued  as  a single version kit.  If you have installed the
     VAXDEBU01_071 remedial kit, you do  not  need  to  install  the
     VAXDEBU01_062 kit.


Problems addressed in VAXDEBU01_071 kit for OpenVMS V6.2

  o  VAX V6.2 debugger EXAMINE of a POINTER to some structure displays 
     the wrong structure.


Problems addressed in VAXDEBU05_070 kit for OpenVMS V6.2

  o  Using the kept debugger and the gui, opening the source browser
     at any point and then executing the RERUN command causes an ACCVIO.


Problems addressed in VAXDEBU04_070 kit for OpenVMS V6.2

  o  Arrow is present, but occluded by breakpoint toggle  buttons.  It  
     appears that Motif is not properly resizing the source annotation 
     form when new child objects (toggles) are initiated, thus, instead  
     of positioning the new objects to the right of existing ones 
     (i.e. the arrow), they are falling on top of them.


Problems addressed in VAXDEBU01_070 kit for OpenVMS VAX V6.2

  o  RFA, Record File Address, tables were sometimes not being properly  
     updated.  The conditional that helped determine when to update was 
     depending on a variable that it assumed was static, but was, instead, 
     changing dynamically.


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).
