|
| + A new SCons release, 2.0.1, is now available
|
| + on the SCons download page:
|
| +
|
| + http://www.scons.org/download.php
|
| +
|
| + The primary purpose of this release is to remove support for Python
|
| + versions prior to 2.4 and streamline the SCons code base using more
|
| + modern python idioms.
|
| +
|
| + Here is a summary of the changes since 1.3:
|
| +
|
| + NEW FUNCTIONALITY
|
| +
|
| + - There should be no new functionality or bug fixes in this checkpoint.
|
| +
|
| + DEPRECATED FUNCTIONALITY
|
| +
|
| + - All features or usages deprecated in 1.3 should have been removed.
|
| + Uses of formerly-deprecated features should get an error.
|
| +
|
| + - The BuildDir() method and the build_dir option now get warnings.
|
| +
|
| + - The SourceCode() function and its associated factory functions have
|
| + started their deprecation cycle and can have a warning enabled.
|
| +
|
| + CHANGED/ENHANCED EXISTING FUNCTIONALITY
|
| +
|
| + - Any Command() or env.Command() calls that use the following Action
|
| + factory functions will have their targets rebuilt when upgrading
|
| + from any pre-2.0 release:
|
| +
|
| + Chmod()
|
| + Copy()
|
| + Delete()
|
| + Mkdir()
|
| + Move()
|
| + Touch()
|
| +
|
| + (The rebuild occurs because the underlying Python class that
|
| + implements these functions has been changed to a new-style Python
|
| + class, and that changes the Python byte code and therefore the
|
| + build signature of the functions.)
|
| +
|
| + FIXES
|
| +
|
| + - MSVC/MSVS/SDK support has been improved. A number of issues with
|
| + determining the correct version and architecture have been resolved.
|
| +
|
| + - Fix propagation from environment of VS*COMNTOOLS to resolve issues
|
| + initializing MSVC/MSVS/SDK issues.
|
| +
|
| + - Fixed a case-sensitivity problem with Fortran modules.
|
| +
|
| + - Fix the ability to append to default $*FLAGS values (which are
|
| + implemented as CLVar instances) in a copied construction environment
|
| + without affecting the original construction environment's value.
|
| +
|
| + - Updated the TeX command strings to include a /D on Windows in
|
| + case the new directory is on a different drive letter.
|
| +
|
| + - Fixed the LaTeX scanner so dependencies are found in commands that
|
| + are broken across lines with a comment or have embedded spaces.
|
| +
|
| + IMPROVEMENTS
|
| +
|
| + - Support for Python versions prior to 2.4 has been removed. As of
|
| + this writing, we believe that SCons will still work with Python 2.3,
|
| + but this is not guaranteed.
|
| + - Code paths that included special cases for older Python versions have
|
| + been streamlined.
|
| + - The code base has been converted to use more modern idioms. Although
|
| + we don't have any direct measurements (yet), we believe that SCons
|
| + startup time should be decreased and the overall code should run faster.
|
| +
|
| + PACKAGING
|
| +
|
| + - No changes.
|
| +
|
| + DOCUMENTATION
|
| +
|
| + - The entries for SourceCode() and its associated factory functions now
|
| + state that the functions are deprecated.
|
| +
|
| + - Document the AllowSubstExceptions() function in the User's Guide.
|
| +
|
| +
|
| + DEVELOPMENT
|
| +
|
| + - Code no longer has to be compatible with Python versions back to 1.5.2.
|
| + Although code is tested with Python 2.3 and is still believed to work,
|
| + the official new floor is Python 2.4.
|
| +
|
| + Thanks to Greg Noel, Steven Knight, Dirk Baechle, William Deegan,
|
| + W. Trevor King, Joe Zuntz, Bauke Conijn, Matt Hughes, Rob Managan,
|
| + and Jim Randall for their contributions to this release.
