If you have defined a strfunction() for a Python function Action,
you will need to add a third "env" argument to your function call.
- Please note the following important changes since release 0.09:
-
- - The Scanner interface has been changed to make it easier to
-
- write user-defined Scanners and to eliminate unnecessary Scanner
- calls. This required changing the meaning of the third argument
- passed to your user-defined scanner functions. The third argument
- was formerly the target node whose build was causing a scan of the
- current node specified as the first argument:
-
- def scanner_function(node, env, target):
-
- The third argument is now the path of directories that can be
- searched for files found during the scan of the current node:
-
- def scanner_function(node, env, path):
-
- If you did not actually use the third argument in your scanner
- function, which should be the case for most definitions, you do
- not need to change your scanner function. (You may, however, wish
- to change the name of the third argument from "target" to "path"
- to reflect the changed meaning and avoid misleading anyone who
- looks at your SConscript files.)
-
- - The .sconsign file format has been changed from ASCII to a pickled
- Python data structure. This improves performance and future
- extensibility, but means that the first time you execute SCons
- 0.10 on an already-existing source tree built with SCons 0.09 or
- earlier, SCons will report for every .sconsign file in the tree:
-
- SCons warning: Ignoring corrupt .sconsign file: xxx
-
- These warnings are normal in this situation and can be safely
- ignored.
-
- - The format of all error and warning messages has been made
- consistent. All error messages now begin with "scons: ***"
- and all warning messages now begin with "scons: warning:".
-
- - SCons now prints a description of Python functions that are
- invoked to build a target.
-
SCons is developed with an extensive regression test suite, and a
rigorous development methodology for continually improving that suite.
Because of this, SCons is of sufficient quality that you can use it
