Purpose:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Check the compatibility between 2 libraries using abi-compliance.<\/p>\n<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n

Enter:<\/h3>\n

abi_checker<\/strong> <library> <old_cyflex_ver> <new_cyflex_ver> [app=application] [old_ver_num] [new_ver_num]<\/p>\n<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n

Where:<\/h3>\n
\n
\n
\n\n\n\n<\/colgroup>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
\n

library<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

\n

the library to look at<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

old_cyflex_ver<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

\n

the old cyflex version<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

new_cyflex_ver<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

\n

the new cyflex version<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

application:<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

\n

Optional argument that checks compatibility for an application for the new library using the old one. Must have app=[application] for this option. Should use full path of executable desired<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

old_ver_num:<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

\n

Optional argument for the old lib num, default 1<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

new_ver_num:<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

\n

Optional argument for the new lib num, default 2<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n

Example:<\/h3>\n
\n
\n

abi_checker\u00a0<\/strong> libSoftingCan\u00a0 \/cyflex.6.2.16.rel\/\u00a0 \/cyflex.6.2.exp\/<\/p>\n

This checks the libSoftingCan.so between the 2 versions and sees if they are compatible.<\/p>\n

abi_checker<\/strong> all \/cyflex.6.2.16.rel\/ \/cyflex.6.2.exp\/<\/p>\n

This opens the cyflex_so_ver.dat file in \/cyflex.6.2.exp\/ and compares that to the cyflex_so_ver.dat file in \/cyflex.6.2.16.rel\/ directory. It generates 2 files, \/tmp\/abi_report and \/tmp\/abi_output.<\/p>\n<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n

Notes:<\/h3>\n
\n
\n

If the argument library is set to \u2018all\u2019, it will look at all libraries in the new_cyflex_ver and check against all in the old_cyflex_ver. The optional arguments are useless when using the \u2018all\u2019 option.<\/p>\n

When running without the \u2018all\u2019 option, a report is created in \/tmp\/compat_reports\/\u2018library\u2019\/. In the \/tmp\/compat_reports\/\u2018library\u2019\/ directory are more directories. These directories hold html files that can be opened with a web browser to view information about the comparison.<\/p>\n

These directories get there name from the optional arguments. If the default are used, then the directory \u20181_to_2\u2019 is created since the default are 1 and 2. The optional arguments do NOT need to be numbers only.<\/p>\n

If app= is used, it must be before the ver_num optional arguments if those want to be used as well.<\/p>\n<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n
