+RELEASE XXX -
Please consult the CHANGES.txt file for a list of specific changes
since last release.
+ Please note the following important changes since release 1.1.0:
+
+ -- THE $CHANGED_SOURCES, $CHANGED_TARGETS, $UNCHANGED_SOURCES
+ AND $UNCHANGED_TARGETS VARIABLES WILL BECOME RESERVED
+
+ A future release (probably 1.3.0) will make the construction
+ variable names $CHANGED_SOURCES, $CHANGED_TARGETS,
+ $UNCHANGED_SOURCES and $UNCHANGED_TARGETS into reserved
+ construction variable names controlled by SCons itself (like
+ the current $SOURCE, $TARGETS, etc.).
+
+ Setting these variable names in the current release will generate
+ a warning but still set the variables. When they become reserved
+ variable names, they will generate a different warning message
+ and attempts to set these variables will be ignored.
+
+ SCons configurations that happen to use these variable names
+ should be changed to use different variable names, in order
+ to ensure that the configuration continues to work with future
+ versions of SCons.
+
Please note the following important changes since release 0.98.4:
