This patch consists of 1 part ONLY: 
- An updated Broker Development Kit (BDK), the programmer workstation

BROKER-DEPENDENT COMPONENTS
===========================
 
The following comments apply only to those developing applications with
the BDK (programmer workstation software).  They are not relevant to
server operation.
 
WARNING:
Some components, such as the FileMan Delphi Components, reference the
this division will be used; else, the default institution in the
TRPCBroker component.  If you use such components for development, be
aware that installing a new version of the TRPCBroker component (i.e., a
new BDK) may cause incompatibilities in Delphi, resulting in a compile
failure of the unit containing the Broker-dependent component and the
following compilation error:
  
        Unit <unit1> was compiled with a different version of <unit2>.
  
Check with the creators of the Broker-dependent component to make sure
that, with regards to the version of the BDK you are about to install:
Kernel System Parameters file will be used.
  
a) Your current component is compatible, or
  
b) You can obtain a new version of the component that is compatible, or
 
c) You have the source (.pas) files available so that the component can be
recompiled successfully.
  
For the FileMan Delphi Components (FMDC), patch FMDC*1.0*1 brings in a new
version of the FMDC that includes the source files.  Please refer to the
 
Patch Module for more information on this FMDC patch.  Additional
instructions regarding installing and recompiling FMDC when the Broker is
upgraded are in XWB1_1RM.TXT found in the ANONYMOUS.SOFTWARE directories
mentioned above and on the FMDC web page.
