2.4.2 Product Versions
Each SCIOPTA product release is identified by a version number consisting of a four field compound number of
the format:
“X.Y.Z.F”
The first digit, X, is used for the major release number which will identify a major increase in the product func-
tionality and involves usually a total rewrite or redesigning of the product including changes in the SCIOPTA ker-
nel API. This number starts at 1.
The second digit, Y, is used for a release number which is used to identify important enhancements. This number
is incriminated to indicate new functionality in the product and may include changes in function calls without mod
-
ifications in the SCIOPTA kernel API. This number starts at 0.
The third digit, Z, stands for feature release number. The feature release number is iterated to identify when func-
tionality have been increased and new files, board support packages or CPUs have been added. This requires also
changes in the documentation. This number starts at 0.
The fourth digit, F, is called the build number and changes if modifications on the examples or board support pack-
ages have been made. This number starts at 0.
2.4.3 Installation Location
The SCIOPTA products will be installed at the following location:
<Destination Folder>\sciopta\<version>\ (in this manual also referred as <install_folder>\sciopta\<version>)
The expression <version> stands for the SCIOPTA four digit version number (e.g. 1.9.6.9)
If you are not modifying the Destination Folder SCIOPTA will be installed at: c:\sciopta\<version>\
Please make sure that all SCIOPTA products of one version are installed in the same destination folder.
2.4.4 Release Notes
This SCIOPTA Kernel delivery for your CPU family includes a text file named RN_<cpu_family>_KRN.txt which
