Short: PManager (debugged!!!), FInd PManager, example src, View util etc. Author: codex@stern.mathematik.hu-berlin.de (Hans Bühler) Uploader: codex stern mathematik hu-berlin de (Hans Bühler) Type: dev/misc Version: 1.02 Replaces: dev/misc/palis.* Architecture: m68k-amigaos Palis V1.02 ----------- This is another patch-manager like Saferpatches. Additonally, in the archive is a program that checks whether any is installed (for use with the Installer) and an object/src/include using it you can easily install/remove patches (with and without _any_ patch manager). Advantages ---------- - Palis fully debugged.... ;^) - PalisView to view currently tracked patches (with nice gui). - PatchTest finds out whether a manager is active (therefore you can decide whether you should install one when you are about to install a program that patches libraries). - Object "cdxMakePatches" offers automatic generation of dummy codes, testing whether it is possible to remove _all_ installed patches (now supporting _every_ patch-manager !!!!!!!!!!!!!!), automatic use of semaphores to protect other processes from running previously deallocated/removed functions etc. - All sources in the archive. - Freeware. - Installer script (using Testpatch ;-) Note to Palis V1.00/1.01 ------------------------ Some people told me that Palis is silly because better programs with the same aim exist. Moreover Palis 1.00/1.01 was buggy. Now Palis works fine and does not produce any trouble. If you are using Palis 1.00/1.01 please up-date !! If you are using another patch-manager, you don't need Palis but you may use Testpatch and/or cdxMakePatches.o in your productions if you like. Thanks a lot to Osma Ahvenlampi for his mails and his effort. Hans Buehler, 10.2.1996 [date of appeareance in the aminet]
