Subj: 	fyi: ode comment leader problem has been fixed

FYI,

A number of people have bumped into this problem related to comment
leaders handled inconsitently; I had reported this problem and it's now
fixed.  On friday I sup'd these patches into our zk environment (along
with a number of other good bugfixes)...

There are 3 locations where the comment leader is set, bcreate, bci,
and bcs.  They have all been fixed to add the trailing space at the
end of the comment leader stign if found missing.

Fix will be in the next release DECodeII 2.1 and currently
available through sup.

PROBLEM ABSTRACT (80 characters or less):
bci leaves HISTORY in a file if comment leader is incorrect & bsubmit chokes

PROBLEM PRIORITY (1-5, 1 being most critical): 1
CAN THE CUSTOMER REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM [Y/N]:  Y
CAN YOU REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM [Y/N]:           Y


PROBLEM STATEMENT:
=================
bci will leave HISTORY in the file in some cases when the actual
comment leaders in use in the file don't match the comments leader
as set in rcs.  In this case, the bci succeeds, but bsubmit fails,
and the problem is fairly difficult to work around / back out.


Instructions to reproduce the problem:
======================================
In one example case a user bcreated a file with no extension, set the
comment leader to "#", and included the header.sh file for the file.
He put comments in the HISTORY section of the file, and then did a
check-in using bci -m"" (thinking this message would be added to the
HISTORY message as in ODE V1.0).

What happened was that the -m message went into the revision history,
and the HISTORY message stayed intact.  The file was then submitted,
and again the HISTORY message stayed intact.  After the submit was
done the file looked like:

    #
    # @DEC_COPYRIGHT@
    #
    # HISTORY
    # several lines of initial
    # user comments here
    # $Log:$
    #Revision 1.1.2.2 .....
    #	comments put in with -m here
    #
    # $EndLog$
    #

After this was completed, another user tried to do a submit, and
got the following.  The first two stages of the submit completed ok,
and so the HH:MM.Principal_Name included the lines
    Files already merged
    Files already locked

and then the submit then failed as follows:

    >> FATAL ERROR in bsubmit:
    >> unknown error in src_ctl_xtract_history

    Please take appropriate steps and re-submit.

To correct the problem I did a direct workon to the submit tree (it
happened to be a shared sandbox), used bcs -c"# " to fix the leader,
did a direct bco from the submit branch, fixed spacing in the header
as was required, and did a bci back to the submit branch.

This problem was readily reproceable in the tutorial.

We did not ship bookreader files with v3.0.
Instead we shipped the html files for
the manuals.

Till later,
Tina

Fine, but then the Bookreader stuff shouldn't point out into hyperspace...

 . All the Bookreader links in the docps directory should be deleted.
 . The files in /usr/sde/osf1/doc shouldn't point to the nonexistent
   documents either.  Note that there are some valid entries in those
   (though I'm not sure any of them are still relevant).

Then again, I guess the fact that it took me this long to notice shows
how often I look at the documentation...
