1) Purpose of this Patch
========================

This patch fixes the problem with the C TargetRTS as described in
defect rose00058941.

  RTS does not free memory when large data sent by value


2) What Has Changed
===================

  When the TargetRTS is configured to SEND_BY_VALUE and a message is sent
  where the associated data value is larger than RTMESSAGE_PAYLOAD_SIZE,
  the memory allocated to convey that data is now released when the message
  is freed.


3) What is Included in this Patch
=================================

The following files are included. All paths are relative to the $RTS_HOME
directory. The default location of $RTS_HOME is $ROSERT_HOME/C/TargetRTS.

  src/Control/freeMsg.c
  src/Message/delete.c


4) What to do Before Installation
=================================

Check that there is a valid Rose RT v6.3 RTS installed and ensure that file
and directory permissions allow writing to the files listed in section 3.


5) How to Install this Patch
============================

Go to your $RTS_HOME directory. In that directory unpack the accompanying
tar file.
    Unix:  tar xf R630C00-rose00058941.tar
    WinNT: pax -r -f R630C00-rose00058941.tar


6) What to do After Installation
================================

Recompile the TargetRTS libraries and relink all applications.


7) Which Platforms are Supported
================================

All target platforms.
