-RELEASE 0.03 -
+RELEASE 0.06 -
+
+ From Steven Knight:
+
+ - Add .zip files to the packages we build.
+
+
+
+RELEASE 0.05 - Thu, 21 Feb 2002 16:50:03 -0600
+
+ From Chad Austin:
+
+ - Set PROGSUFFIX to .exe under Cygwin.
+
+ From Charles Crain:
+
+ - Allow a library to specified as a command-line source file, not just
+ in the LIBS construction variable.
+
+ - Compensate for a bug in os.path.normpath() that returns '' for './'
+ on WIN32.
+
+ - More performance optimizations: cache #include lines from files,
+ eliminate unnecessary calls.
+
+ - If a prefix or suffix contains white space, treat the resulting
+ concatenation as separate arguments.
+
+ - Fix irregularities in the way we fetch DevStudio information from
+ the Windows registry, and in our registry error handling.
+
+ From Steven Knight:
+
+ - Flush stdout after print so it intermixes correctly with stderr
+ when redirected.
+
+ - Allow Scanners to return a list of strings, and document how to
+ write your own Scanners.
+
+ - Look up implicit (scanned) dependencies relative to the directory
+ of file being scanned.
+
+ - Make writing .sconsign files more robust by first trying to write
+ to a temp file that gets renamed.
+
+ - Create all of the directories for a list of targets before trying
+ to build any of the targets.
+
+ - WIN32 portability fixes in tests.
+
+ - Allow the list of variables exported to an SConscript file to be
+ a UserList, too.
+
+ - Document the overlooked LIBPATH construction variable.
+ (Bug reported by Eicke Godehardt.)
+
+ - Fix so that Ignore() ignores indirect, implicit dependencies
+ (included files), not just direct dependencies.
+
+ - Put the man page in the Debian distribution.
+
+ - Run HTML docs through tidy to clean up the HTML (for Konqueror).
+
+ - Add preliminary support for Unicode strings.
+
+ - Efficiency: don't scan dependencies more than once during the
+ walk of a tree.
+
+ - Fix the -c option so it doesn't stop removing targets if one doesn't
+ already exist.
+ (Bug reported by Paul Connell.)
+
+ - Fix the --debug=pdb option when run on Windows NT.
+ (Bug reported by Paul Connell.)
+
+ - Add support for the -q option.
+
+ From Steve Leblanc:
+
+ - Add support for the -u option.
+
+ - Add .cc and .hh file suffixes to the C Scanner.
+
+ From Anthony Roach:
+
+ - Make the scons script return an error code on failures.
+
+ - Add support for using code to generate a command to build a target.
+
+
+
+RELEASE 0.04 - Wed, 30 Jan 2002 11:09:42 -0600
+
+ From Charles Crain:
+
+ - Significant performance improvements in the Node.FS and
+ Scanner subsystems.
+
+ - Fix signatures of binary files on Win32 systems.
+
+ - Allow LIBS and LIBPATH to be strings, not just arrays.
+
+ - Print a traceback if a Python-function builder throws an exception.
+
+ From Steven Knight:
+
+ - Fix using a directory as a Default(), and allow Default() to
+ support white space in file names for strings in arrays.
+
+ - Man page updates: corrected some mistakes, documented various
+ missing Environment methods, alphabetized the construction
+ variables and other functions, defined begin and end macros for
+ the example sections, regularized white space separation, fixed
+ the use of Export() in the Multiple Variants example.
+
+ - Function action fixes: None is now a successful return value.
+ Exceptions are now reported. Document function actions.
+
+ - Add 'Action' and 'Scanner' to the global keywords so SConscript
+ files can use them too.
+
+ - Removed the Wrapper class between Nodes and Walkers.
+
+ - Add examples using Library, LIBS, and LIBPATH.
+
+ - The C Scanner now always returns a sorted list of dependencies
+ so order changes don't cause unnecessary rebuilds.
+
+ - Strip $(-$) bracketed text from command lines. Use this to
+ surround $_INCDIRS and $_LIBDIRS so we don't rebuild in response
+ to changes to -I or -L options.
+
+ - Add the Ignore() method to ignore dependencies.
+
+ - Provide an error message when a nonexistent target is specified
+ on the command line.
+
+ - Remove targets before building them, and add an Environment
+ Precious() method to override that.
+
+ - Eliminate redundant calls to the same builder when the target is a
+ list of targets: Add a ListBuilder class that wraps Builders to
+ handle lists atomically. Extend the Task class to support building
+ and updating multiple targets in a single Task. Simplify the
+ interface between Task and Taskmaster.
+
+ - Add a --debug=pdb option to re-run SCons under the Python debugger.
+
+ - Only compute a build signature once for each node.
+
+ - Changes to our sys.path[] manipulation to support installation into
+ an arbitrary --prefix value.
+
+ From Steve Leblanc:
+
+ - Add var=value command-line arguments.
+
+
+
+RELEASE 0.03 - Fri, 11 Jan 2002 01:09:30 -0600
+
+ From Charles Crain:
+
+ - Performance improvements in the Node.FS and Sig.Calculator classes.
+
+ - Add the InstallAs() method.
+
+ - Execute commands through an external interpreter (sh, cmd.exe, or
+ command.com) to handle redirection metacharacters.
+
+ - Allow the user to supply a command handler.
From Steven Knight:
- Search both /usr/lib and /usr/local/lib for scons directories by
adding them both to sys.path, with whichever is in sys.prefix first.
+ - Fix interpreting strings of multiple white-space separated file names
+ as separate file names, allowing prefixes and suffixes to be appended
+ to each individually.
+
+ - Refactor to move CompositeBuilder initialization logic from the
+ factory wrapper to the __init__() method, and allow a Builder to
+ have both an action and a src_builder (or array of them).
+
+ - Refactor BuilderBase.__call__() to separate Node creation/lookup
+ from initialization of the Node's builder information.
+
+ - Add a CFile Builder object that supports turning lex (.l) and
+ yacc (.y) files into .c files.
+
+ - Document: variable interpretation attributes; how to propogate
+ the user's environment variables to executed commands; how to
+ build variants in multiple BuildDirs.
+
+ - Collect String, Dict, and List type-checking in common utility
+ routines so we can accept User{String,Dict,List}s all over.
+
+ - Put the Action factory and classes into their own module.
+
+ - Use one CPlusPlusAction in the Object Builder's action dictionary,
+ instead of letting it create multiple identical instances.
+
+ - Document the Install() and InstallAs() methods.
+
+ From Steve Leblanc:
+
+ - Require that a Builder be given a name argument, supplying a
+ useful error message when it isn't.
+
From Anthony Roach:
- Add a "duplicate" keyword argument to BuildDir() that can be set
to prevent linking/copying source files into build directories.
+ - Add a "--debug=tree" option to print an ASCII dependency tree.
+
+ - Fetch the location of the Microsoft Visual C++ compiler(s) from
+ the Registry, instead of hard-coding the location.
+
+ - Made Scanner objects take Nodes, not path names.
+
+ - Have the C Scanner cache the #include file names instead of
+ (re-)scanning the file each time it's called.
+
+ - Created a separate class for parent "nodes" of file system roots,
+ eliminating the need for separate is-parent-null checks everywhere.
+
+ - Removed defined __hash__() and __cmp() methods from FS.Entry, in
+ favor of Python's more efficient built-in identity comparisons.
