- - Construction variables are now expanded anywhere within a
- target or source name, as well as in the arguments to the following
- Environment methods: AlwaysBuild(), Depends(), Ignore(), Install(),
- InstallAs(), Precious(), SideEffect() and SourceCode().
-
- If you have any files or directories that actually contain one or
- more dollar signs ($), you must now precede the dollar sign with
- another dollar sign ($$) when referring to the file or directory
- as part of calling a Builder, or any of the above methods.
-
- - The ParseConfig() global function has now been deprecated in favor
- of using the env.ParseConfig() method. The global function will be
- removed in some future release of SCons.
+ - The internal Python function used by the Zip Builder in Python
+ releases 1.6 or later now compresses the resulting .zip file
+ by default. The old behavior of creating an uncompressed file
+ may be preserved by setting the new ZIPCOMPRESSION construction
+ variable to 0 (or zipfile.ZIP_STORED, if you import the
+ underlying zipfile module).
SCons is developed with an extensive regression test suite, and a
rigorous development methodology for continually improving that suite.
