15.06.2004 Version 1.5.0

20.10.2003 Version 1.4.0 
- bugfix: COBD files with line lengths > 255 are not read correctly.          
- bugfix: No error is reported if the database requires a formula 
          (e.g $NODEID+0x600) and in the EDS there is only the number  
          (e.g 0x600). 
- bugfix: If PDO a mapping parameter object uses compact sub objects then an
          error reports that entry 'SubNumber' is missing.
- bugfix: If a main object has compact subobjects then database values of sub
          object 0 are checked with the values of the main object.
- bugfix: Data type range of TIME_OF_DAY and TIME_DIFFERENCE is checked incorret
- CODB files: 
  - Missing access type is added to sub-index 4 of PDO communication parameter
    objects in v301.codb.
  - Some missing values of PDO mapping parameter objects are added.
  - New files: v402.codb, v404.codb and v406.codb
- Support of manufacturer and device specific data types.
- If the number of sub objects in a PDO Mapping Parameter is unequal the number
  of the last sub object and granularity of the device is 0 only a warning is
  generated. If granularity is bigger 0 no warning and error is generated.
- Error if object has compact sub-objects and data or access type is missing.
- Error if all PDO mapping entries are constant or read only and granularity is 
  bigger than 0.
- Error if all PDO mapping entries are writable and granularity is 0.
- Warning if PDO mapping entries are writable but associated COB-ID is read only
  or constant.  
- Error if a PDO mapping entry is writable but sub object 0 is read-only or constant.  
- Error if a PDO mapping entry is read-only or constant but sub object 0 is writable.  
- Update valid value range of entry NrOfRXPDO and NrOfTXPDO to Unsigned16.
- Data type 0xE (BIT_STRING) is now reserved according to DS301 version 4.01.
 
14.03.2002 Version 1.3.0 
- Check of mapping length and data type of the mapped object.
- Error if sub object 0 of a structured object (array, record or defstruct)
  is missing.
- Completed V401.CODB
- bugfix: Check of REAL32 or REAL64 values with database creates
          incorrect messages in some cases.
- bugfix: Program terminates if a database attribute string in incorrect.

14.12.2001 Version 1.2.2
- Warning if sub object 0 of a structured object
  has no default value.
- bugfix: Mapping an object with subindex 0 (e.g. 21330008) 
  leads to an error because both the section of the main
  object and the section of the sub object 0 are checked.
  If the main object is structured it shall have no 
  mapping entry. This leads to an error.
  Now if subindex 0 is mapped and if the object is structured
  only sub object 0 is checked.
- bugfix: If an object has compact subojects and there is no database 
  record for sub object 1 then an invalid object type is not
  detected. 
  Now an invalid object type is detected.
- CODB files: The identifier of the first four RPDOs/TPDOs
  have to be the default value (e.g. $NODEID+0x0200), which 
  depends on the Node-ID. To use a static COB-ID the 
  file 'v301.codb' has to be edited.
- Introduced check for the entry EDSVersion

20.06.2001 Version 1.2.0
- Software itself not changed
- Updated CODB files

02.04.2001 Version 1.2.0
- Included extensions of CiA DSP-405 V2 
- bugfix: Mapping an object with index bigger
  than 0x7fff (e.g. 0xa000) as default value 
  had been treated as negative value. This lead
  to an invalid error message.

27.02.2001 Version 1.1.0
Changes in Test Specification required changes in
the implementation:
- The keyword "ObjectType" is optional. If the 
  keyword is missing, it is assumed to be "VAR"
  (in raw format 0x7).
  Implementation hint: If the entry SubNumber exists 
  and is not 0, then this situation is treated as
  if the ObjectType is unknown.
- The keyword "PDOMapping" is optional. If it
  is missing, it is assumed to be 0.
- The keyword "DefaultValue" is optional. If it
  is missing, it is assume to be "DefaultValue=".
  This waqs already implemented in the earlier 
  versions. The used database controls, which values
  are accepted.

04.12.2000 Version 1.0.5
- better error messages for problems related to
  object link sections
- decreased file size of the executable by
  removing debugging code

02.10.2000 Version 1.0.4
- new check for object 1027
- bugfix: If objects which were not listed in an 
  object list but did appear in an object link 
  they were marked as being used.
  Now they are marked to be not referenced.

07.09.2000 Version 1.0.3
- treats leading 0 or x in section names, so
  [0x1000] or [0005] is not allowed any more.
- entries of dummy mapping now must be
  Dummy0001=0 or Dummy0001=1
  Dummy0001=0x0  is not allowed any more.
- corrected handling of compact sub objects
- hexadecimal numbers describing negative values 
  are are now handled correctly

02.08.2000 Version 1.0.2
- only intermediate version
- whitespace in entry names is not allowed any more

07.07.2000 Version 1.0.1
- Special handling for Sub-Index 0 of Mapping Entries

14.06.2000 Version 1.0
