This change *only* affects any cases where you explicitly use UserList objects to initialize or append to a variable. - Please note the following important changes since release 0.94: - - - 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). - - - The "overrides" keyword argument to calls to the Builder() function - used to create new Builder objects has been deprecated and will - be removed in a future release. The items in an "overrides" - dictionary should now be specified as keyword arguments: - - # Old way, "overrides" is a dictionary: - Builder(action = 'cp $TDIR/$TARGET $SDIR/$SOURCE', - overrides = {'TDIR' : dir1, 'SDIR' : dir2}) - - # New way, items are specified as keyword arguments: - Builder(action = 'cp $TDIR/$TARGET $SDIR/$SOURCE', - TDIR = dir1, SDIR = dir2) - - - The meaning of some of the values of the "mode" argument to - the SCons.Util.scons_subst() and SCons.Util.scons_subst_list() - functions have been swapped. The wrapper Environment.subst() and - Environment.subst_list() methods remain completely unchanged, so - this should have no external effect. (We've listed the change here - because it might cause a problem if you're reaching into the SCons - internals and calling either of these SCons.Util functions directly.) - Please note the following FUTURE changes that you may wish to prepare for: |
