(Duh...) - - - Reduce the Memoizer's responsibilities to simply counting hits and - misses when the --debug=memoizer option is used, not to actually - handling the key calculation and memoization itself. This speeds - up some configurations significantly, and should cause no functional - differences. - - - Add a new scons-time script with subcommands for generating - consistent timing output from SCons configurations, extracting - various information from those timings, and displaying them in - different formats. - - - Reduce some unnecessary stat() calls from on-disk entry type checks. - - - Fix SideEffect() when used with -j, which was badly broken in 0.96.93. - - - Propagate TypeError exceptions when evaluating construction variable - expansions up the stack, so users can see what's going on. - - - When disambiguating a Node.FS.Entry into a Dir or File, don't look - in the on-disk source directory until we've confirmed there's no - on-disk entry locally and there *is* one in the srcdir. This avoids - creating a phantom Node that can interfere with dependencies on - directory contents. - - - Add an AllowSubstExceptions() function that gives the SConscript - files control over what exceptions cause a string to expand to '' - vs. terminating processing with an error. - - - Allow the f90.py and f95.py Tool modules to compile earlier source - source files of earlier Fortran version. - - - Fix storing signatures of files retrieved from CacheDir() so they're - correctly identified as up-to-date next invocation. - - - Make sure lists of computed source suffixes cached by Builder objects - don't persist across changes to the list of source Builders (so the - addition of suffixes like .ui by the qt.py Tool module take effect). - - - Enhance the bootstrap.py script to allow it to be used to execute - SCons more easily from a checked-out source tree. - - From Ben Leslie: - - - Fix post-Memoizer value caching misspellings in Node.FS._doLookup(). - - From Rob Managan, Dmitry Mikhin and Joel B. Mohler: - - - Handle TeX/LaTeX files in subdirectories by changing directory - before invoking TeX/LaTeX. - - - Scan LaTeX files for \bibliography lines. - - - Support multiple file names in a "\bibliography{file1,file2}" string. - - - Handle TeX warnings about undefined citations. - - - Support re-running LaTeX if necessary due to a Table of Contents. - - From Dmitry Mikhin: - - - Return LaTeX if "Rerun to get citations correct" shows up on the next - line after the "Warning:" string. - - From Gary Oberbrunner: - - - Add #include lines to fix portability issues in two tests. - - - Eliminate some unnecessary os.path.normpath() calls. - - - Add a $CFLAGS variable for C-specific options, leaving $CCFLAGS - for options common to C and C++. - - From Tom Parker: - - - Have the error message print the missing file that Qt can't find. - - From John Pye: - - - Fix env.MergeFlags() appending to construction variable value of None. - - From Steve Robbins: - - - Fix the "sconsign" script when the .sconsign.dblite file is explicitly - specified on the command line (and not intuited from the old way of - calling it with just ".sconsign"). - - From Jose Pablo Ezequiel "Pupeno" Fernandez Silva: - - - Give the 'lex' tool knowledge of the additional target files produced - by the flex "--header-file=" and "--tables-file=" options. - - - Give the 'yacc' tool knowledge of the additional target files produced - by the bison "-g", "--defines=" and "--graph=" options. - - - Generate intermediate files with Objective C file suffixes (.m) when - the lex and yacc source files have appropriate suffixes (.lm and .ym). - - From Sohail Somain: - - - Have the mslink.py Tool only look for a 'link' executable on Windows - systems. - - From Vaclav Smilauer: - - - Add support for a "srcdir" keyword argument when calling a Builder, - which will add a srcdir prefix to all non-relative string sources. - - From Jonathan Ultis: - - - Allow Options converters to take the construction environment as - an optional argument. - - - -RELEASE 0.96.93 - Mon, 06 Nov 2006 00:44:11 -0600 - - NOTE: This is a pre-release of 0.97 for testing purposes. - - From Anonymous: - - Allow Python Value Nodes to be Builder targets.
