NOTICE TO CEM USERS

This version of the RTS is compatible with CEM Modules built with CEM Files distributed with RTS Version 19980714 3.9.7 and later. You may install this version of the RTS without rebuilding your CEM Module. However, in order to make use of the new CEM capabilities, you MUST install this version of the RTS, and then you MUST recompile and relink your CEM Module(s) with the TYX-supplied CEM Files distributed with this version of the RTS.

As time goes on, RTS/CEM testing to provide error-free backwards-compatibility becomes increasingly difficult. Therefore, TYX Corporation very strongly recommends that CEM Users recompile and relink their CEM Modules after installing a new version of the RTS.

 

1.1 Enhancements

CEM Kernel - Syntax Change To RTS-To-CEM Messages Containing Boolean Data

Prior to this release, the CEM Kernel accepted the following Strings for Boolean Data Values in RTS-to-CEM Messages: "TRUE" and "FALSE".

With this release, the CEM Kernel accepts the following Strings for Boolean Data Values in RTS-to-CEM Messages: "T", "TR", "TRU", "TRUE", "F", "FA", "FAL", "FALS", and "FALSE".

1.2 Problem Reports

PR 01-118 - CEM Kernel - IsMod() and RemoveMod() Not Finding Descriptor Group Modifiers

Prior to this release, the Macros IsMod() and RemoveMod() did not find Descriptor Group Modifiers (i.e., Modifiers with no Datum Values).

With this release, these Macros work correctly.
