+ -- THE Options OBJECT AND RELATED FUNCTIONS NOW GENERATE WARNINGS
+
+ Use of the Options object, and related functions BoolOption(),
+ EnumOption(), ListOption(), PackageOption() and PathOption()
+ were announced as deprecated in release 0.98.1. Since then,
+ however, no warning messages were ever implemented for the
+ use of these deprecated functions.
+
+ By default, release 1.2.0 prints warning messages when these
+ deprecated features are used. Warnings about all deprecated
+ features may be suppressed by using the --warn=no-deprecated
+ command-line option:
+
+ $ scons --warn=no-deprecated
+
+ Or by using the appropriate SetOption() call in any SConscript
+ file:
+
+ SetOption('warn', 'no-deprecated')
+
+ You may optionally disable just warnings about the deprecation
+ of the Options object and its related functions as follows:
+
+ SetOption('warn', 'no-deprecated-options')
+
+ The current plan is for these warnings to become mandatory
+ (non-suppressible) in release 1.3.0, and for the use of Options
+ and its related functions to generate errors in release 2.0.
