Change of ALL EEOPT variables

Dear all,

We are going to implement a big step towards the MISRA compliance of ERIKA. In particular, we are going to implement soon the MISRA rule 20.1, which mandates that all identifiers starting with a double underscore are RESERVED for the system libraries.

This is also covered by this post:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2287 ... 797#228797

The problem is that... ERIKA is full of that symbols, including most EEOPT variables.

We will handle the transition as follows:
1- there will be a "last release" with the identifiers containing double underscores.
2- after that, we will tag the SVN repository tagging the last version using double underscores.
3- we will start changing all the files using double underscores on the "trunk".
4- we will perform all the regression tests we have currently running, which does not currently cover all architectures but that should be representative
5- finally, we will release a new version of ERIKA and RT-Druid, probably with a major name inside it.

You will get an update of this thread between point 2 and 3. If you have anything to commit do it now :-)

Ciao,

PJ
