This is the eighth beta release of SCons. Please consult the
CHANGES.txt file for a list of specific changes since last release.
+ Please note the following important changes since release 0.97:
+
+ -- THE DEFAULT EXECUTION PATH FOR Solaris HAS CHANGED
+
+ On Solaris systems, SCons now adds the "/opt/SUNWspro/bin"
+ directory to the default execution $PATH variable before the
+ "/usr/ccs/bin" directory. This was done to reflect the fact
+ that /opt/SUNWspro/ is the default for SUN tools, but it may
+ cause a different compiler to be used if you have compilers
+ installed in both directories.
+
+ -- GENERATED config.h FILES NOW SAY "#define HAVE_{FEATURE} 1"
+
+ When generating a "config.h" file, SCons now defines values that
+ record the existence of a feature with a "1" value:
+
+ #define HAVE_FEATURE 1
+
+ Instead of printing the line without a "1", as it used to:
+
+ #define HAVE_FEATURE
+
+ This should not cause any problems in the normal use of "#ifdef
+ HAVE_{FEATURE}" statements interpreted by a C preprocessor, but
+ might cause a compatibility issue if a script or other utility
+ was looking for an exact match of the previous text.
+
Please note the following important changes since release 0.96.93:
-- THE --debug=memoizer OPTION NOW REQUIRES PYTHON 2.2 OR LATER
