4This log file is used to record two kinds of important information:\r
5 a) "Non-Compatible Changes": all non-compatible changes should be recorded. These info\r
6 will help the package user to merge this package; and some non-compatible changes\r
7 can also be added into release notes as news features when we release this package.\r
8 Normally Non-Compatible Changes contains the following types:\r
9 1) Package's external services were changed/updated\r
10 2) Package's common .h file is renamed, deleted, or the file path is changed.\r
11 3) The definition of package's common data structure is changed\r
12 ...\r
13\r
14 b) "Important Compatible Changes": some important compatible changes can aslo be recorded\r
15 in this file, and we can add these updating into release notes when we release this\r
16 package.\r

76\r
77 Class_BuildTool:\r
78 1) Changed MYTOOLS to use Visual Studio Team Suite for IA32 and X64. IPF is still use WINDKK.\r
79 2) Re-generated build.exe and GenFds.exe to incorporate new changes of build tools\r

114\r
115 Class_BuildTool:\r
116 1) Removed the calling of vsvars32.bat in edksetup.bat, unless\r
117 "--nt32" switch is used.\r

119 the nmake.exe or make.exe is because it will not be in PATH any more.\r
120 3) Removed the calling of vsvars32.bat in toolsetup.bat.\r
121 4) Solved the hang issue of build.exe when error occurred or Ctrl+C is\r

134 1) Nt32Pkg build needs to run vsvars32.bat before edksetup.bat or run\r
135 edksetup.bat with "--nt32" option, like\r
136\r
137 edksetup.bat --nt32 newbuild\r
138\r
139 2) $(WORKSPACE)/Conf/tools_def.txt must be deleted before running\r
140 edksetup.bat because of new tools_def.template. Otherwise the\r
141 build.exe cannot find the nmake.exe to call.\r
