Description Chris Ring CLA 2012-01-27 13:01:34 EST 
If an ITarget implementor [incorrectly] fails to set the .cmds field in the returned CommandSet (e.g. from link(), compile(), etc), the following error occurs:

js: "/db/rtree/install/trees/products/xdcprod/xdcprod-p32/product/Linux/xdctools_3_23_00_32/packages/xdc/bld/_gen.xs", line 2694: TypeError: Cannot call method"replace" of undefined

Though rare, this is confusing for target developers.

added check for null cmds; if they are null or undefined, no rules are generated and a warning is written to stderr:
    Warning: target 'foo.bar' didn't supply any commands for 'toto.o66'

fixed in xdc-z17 and xdc-y28 (xdctools 3.23 and 3.25)
