XXX - A SCons "checkpoint release" is intended to provide early access to - new features so they can be tested in the field before being released - for adoption by other software distributions. - - Note that a checkpoint release is developed using the same test-driven - development methodology as all SCons releases. Existing SCons - functionality should all work as it does in previous releases (except - for any changes identified in the release notes) and early adopters - should be able to use a checkpoint release safely for production work - with existing SConscript files. If not, it represents not only a bug - in SCons but also a hole in the regression test suite, and we want to - hear about it. - - New features may be more lightly tested than in past releases, - especially as concerns their interaction with all of the other - functionality in SCons. We are especially interested in hearing bug - reports about new functionality. - - We do not recommend that downstream distributions (Debian, Fedora, - etc.) package a checkpoint release, mainly to avoid confusing the - "public" release numbering with the long checkpoint release names. - - Here is a summary of the changes since 1.3.0: + Here is a summary of the changes since 3.0.1: NEW FUNCTIONALITY - - List new features (presumably why a checkpoint is being released) + - Properly support versioned shared libraries for MacOS. We've also introduced two + new env variables APPLELINK_CURRENT_VERSION and APPLELINK_COMPATIBILITY_VERSION which will specify + what is passed to the linkers -current_version and -compatibility_version flags. If not specified + they will be derived from SHLIBVERSION as such: + - APPLELINK_CURRENT_VERSION = SHLIBVERSION + - APPLELINK_COMPATIBILITY_VERSION = all but the last digit in SHLIBVERSION with .0 appended. + Note that the values of the above will be validated. Valid format for either APPLELINK variable is + X[.Y[.Z]] where 0 <= X <= 65535, 0 <= Y <= 255, 0 <= Z <= 255. + - Add flag must_exist to SConscript() call to fail on missing script. + Not failing on missing script is now considered deprecated, and the first instance will print a + deprecation message. + - Add xz compression format to packaging choices. + - Add Textfile/Substfile to default environment. (issue #3147) + - Added virtualenv support. A new function Virtualenv() determines whether + SCons runs in a virtualenv. The search PATH may also be extended to + prefer executables from the current virtualenv over the ones provided by + base environment. New option --enable-virtualenv provided to import some + virtualenv-related variables to SCons and extend every env['ENV']['PATH'] + automatically. New option --ignore-virtualenv disables this. Two + environment variables, SCONS_ENABLE_VIRTUALENV and + SCONS_IGNORE_VIRTUALENV are supported for the same purpose. DEPRECATED FUNCTIONALITY - - List anything that's been deprecated since the last release + - Going forward calling SConscript on a non-existing SConscript file will issue a warning. Currently + it will issue a deprecation notice. CHANGED/ENHANCED EXISTING FUNCTIONALITY - - List modifications to existing features, where the previous behavior - wouldn't actually be considered a bug + - Recognize new java 9, 10, 11 (as 9.0 and 10.0, 11.0) FIXES - - List fixes of outright bugs - - IMPROVEMENTS - - - List improvements that wouldn't be visible to the user in the - documentation: performance improvements (describe the circumstances - under which they would be observed), or major code cleanups + - Fix issue #2980 with credit to Piotr Bartosik (and William Blevins). This is an issue where using + TimeStamp-MD5 Decider and CacheDir can yield incorrect md5's being written into the .sconsign. + The difference between Piotr Bartosik's patch and the current code is that the more complicated + creation of file to csig map is only done when the count of children for the current node doesn't + match the previous count which is loaded from the sconsign. - PACKAGING - - List changes in the way SCons is packaged and/or released - - DOCUMENTATION - - - List any significant changes to the documentation (not individual - typo fixes, even if they're mentioned in src/CHANGES.txt to give - the contributor credit) - - DEVELOPMENT - - - List visible changes in the way SCons is developed - - Thanks to CURLY, LARRY, and MOE for their contributions to this release. + Thanks to Bernard Blackham, William Deegan, Ray Donnelly, Andrew Featherstone, Arda Fu, + Philipp Maierhöfer, Matthew Marinets, Fredrik Medley, Daniel Moody, Gary Oberbrunner, + Jonathon Reinhart, Zachary Tessler, Paweł Tomulik, Richard West, Mats Wichmann, Bernhard M.
