391.0. "changes in A1LNKDRV" by YUPPY::DEWINTER (Chocolate?, Yeah!) Wed Apr 01 1992 17:29

    Does anybody know of a document or explanation on the changes in the
    A1LNKDRV? One of my students is very eager to know about all this. 
    
    Thanks,

391.1Probably not - Here's a quick flavo{u}r...IOSG::PYEGraham - ALL-IN-1 Sorcerer's ApprenticeWed Apr 01 1992 18:2315
    You could try VMS $differences!
    
    I didn't do CART changes data for this, since it's not customisable in
    V2.4.
    
    Most of the chnages were for development use really. E.g. symbols to
    set to stop various images being linked, symbol to make the link look
    in your own private directory first for objects, symbol to stop the
    SITE object libraries being used.
    
    If it's not in the Management Guide, then it may not be documented.
    
    Or was there something else?

    Graham is as always right ... 
    
    the important changes to A1LNKDRV were the addition of the *UNDOCUMENTED* 
    PERSONAL and NOCUSTOM Options and the even more *undocumented* addition
    of symbols to avoid linking individual images such as the TM server
    when all you wanted to link was OA$MAIN - It is to be hoped that these
    do make it into the documentation at some future date (Info Update?)
    
    The one change that will however catch everyone out and has already
    thrown many ISVs and customers during Field Test is the subtle change in 
    location of the A1LNKDRV and A1LINK files which are now to be found in 
    OA$BUILD_LLV and not OA$BUILD_SHARE as we have come to know and love over 
    the last 4 years since it moved from OA$BUILD.
