<html> <head> <title>Feature Requests</title> </head> <body> <div id="apphead"> <h1><small>scons</small><br />Feature Requests</h1> </div> <p> <strong>You must now <a href="http://www.tigris.org/servlets/Login">log in</a> to a <a href="http://www.tigris.org">tigris.org</a> account before submitting a feature request!</strong> </p> <p> Feature requests should be submitted to the <a href="http://scons.tigris.org/issues/enter_bug.cgi?component=scons&subcomponent=scons&issue_type=FEATURE">"Enter Issue" page</a>. A more detailed set of <a href="feature-request.html#steps">submission steps</a> can be found below. </p> <p> The "Enter Issue" links on this page, by default, create a <tt>FEATURE</tt> request, a request for completely new SCons functionality. If your request is for modified behavior of an already-existing SCons feature, you may wish to change the Issue type to an <tt>ENHANCEMENT</tt> request. If you're not sure, leave the issue as a <tt>FEATURE</tt> request; it can be reclassified in the future, if necessary. </div> <div class="h2 app" style="border-left: 0px" id="customcontent"> <h2 id="steps">Steps for Submitting a Feature Request</h2> <p> The following guides you step-by-step through the process of submitting a feature request. </p> <ul> <li> <strong><a href="http://www.tigris.org/servlets/Login">Log in</a> at tigris.org</strong> <p> If you do not already have a tigris.org account, register for one at <a href="http://www.tigris.org/servlets/Join">http://www.tigris.org/servlets/Join</a>. </p> <p> We no longer accept anonymous feature requests, due to spambot abuse of the open-door policy. </p> </li> <li> <strong>Go to the <a href="http://scons.tigris.org/issues/enter_bug.cgi?component=scons&subcomponent=scons&issue_type=FEATURE">"Enter issue" page</a> </strong> <p> By default, the "scons" subcomponent is selected; if this bug is for a different subcomponent, select that instead. </p> </li> <li> <strong>Fill in a good Summary line describing the feature you're requesting</strong> <p> This line is what shows up in summary reports, so it should be descriptive but not too long. </p> </li> <li> <strong>Fill in the Description field</strong> <p> This is where you should go into detail about what you'd like to see SCons do differently. When in doubt, include more information rather than less. </p> </li> <li> <strong>Press the "Submit issue" to submit your request</strong> <p> You will now receive a <tt>Posting issue</tt> page that gives you the number of the issue you submitted. If you want to attach a file to your feature request, you can do so by clicking the <tt>Attach a file to this issue</tt> link and using that page to upload a file. </p> </li> </ul> </div> </body> </html>
