-RELEASE 0.15 - XXX
+RELEASE 0.XX - XXX
+
+ From Chad Austin:
+
+ - Support specifying a list of tools when calling Environment.Copy().
+
+ - Give a Value Nodes a timestamp of the system time when they're
+ created, so they'll work when using timestamp-based signatures.
+
+ - Add a DefaultEnvironment() function that only creates a default
+ environment on-demand (for fetching source files, e.g.).
+
+ - Portability fix for test/M4.py.
+
+ From Steven Knight:
+
+ - Tighten up the scons -H help output.
+
+ - When the input yacc file ends in .yy and the -d flag is specified,
+ recognize that a .hpp file (not a .h file) will be created.
+
+ - Make builder prefixes work correctly when deducing a target
+ from a source file name in another directory.
+
+ - Documentation fixes: typo in the man page; explain up-front about
+ not propagating the external environment.
+
+ - Use "cvs co -d" instead of "cvs co -p >" when checking out something
+ from CVS with a specified module name. This avoids zero-length
+ files when there is a checkout error.
+
+ - Add an "sconsign" script to print the contents of .sconsign files.
+
+ - Speed up maintaining the various lists of Node children by using
+ dictionaries to avoid "x in list" searches.
+
+ - Cache the computed list of Node children minus those being Ignored
+ so it's only calculated once.
+
+ - Fix use of the --cache-show option when building a Program()
+ (or using any other arbitrary action) by making sure all Action
+ instances have strfunction() methods.
+
+ - Allow the source of Command() to be a directory.
+
+ - Better error handling of things like raw TypeErrors in SConscripts.
+
+ - When installing using "setup.py install --prefix=", suppress the
+ distutils warning message about adding the (incorrect) library
+ directory to your search path.
+
+ - Correct the spelling of the "validater" option to "validator."
+ Add a DeprecatedWarning when the old spelling is used.
+
+ - Allow a Builder's emitter to be a dictionary that maps source file
+ suffixes to emitter functions, using the suffix of the first file
+ in the source list to pick the right one.
+
+ - Refactor the creation of the Program, *Object and *Library Builders
+ so that they're moved out of SCons.Defaults and created on demand.
+
+ - Don't split SConscript file names on white space.
+
+ - Document the SConscript function's "dirs" and "name" keywords.
+
+ - Remove the internal (and superfluous) SCons.Util.argmunge() function.
+
+ - Add /TP to the default CXXFLAGS for msvc, so it can compile all
+ of the suffixes we use as C++ files.
+
+ - Allow the "prefix" and "suffix" attributes of a Builder to be
+ callable objects that return generated strings, or dictionaries
+ that map a source file suffix to the right prefix/suffix.
+
+ - Support a MAXLINELINELENGTH construction variable on Win32 systems
+ to control when a temporary file is used for long command lines.
+
+ - Make how we build .rpm packages not depend on the installation
+ locations from the distutils being used.
+
+ - When deducing a target Node, create it directly from the first
+ source Node, not by trying to create the right string to pass to
+ arg2nodes().
+
+ - Add support for SWIG.
+
+ From Gary Oberbrunner:
+
+ - Report the target being built in error messages when building
+ multiple sources from different extensions, or when the target file
+ extension can't be deduced, or when we don't have an action for a
+ file suffix.
+
+ - Provide helpful error messages when the arguments to env.Install()
+ are incorrect.
+
+ - Fix the value returned by the Node.prevsiginfo() method to conform
+ to a previous change when checking whether a node is current.
+
+ - Supply a stack trace if the Taskmaster catches an exception.
+
+ - When using a temporary file for a long link line on Win32 systems,
+ (also) print the command line that is being executed through the
+ temporary file.
+
+ - Initialize the LIB environment variable when using the Intel
+ compiler (icl).
+
+ - Documentation fixes: better explain the AlwaysBuild() function.
+
+ From Laurent Pelecq:
+
+ - When the -debug=pdb option is specified, use pdb.Pdb().runcall() to
+ call pdb directly, don't call Python recursively.
+
+ From Ben Scott:
+
+ - Add support for a platform-independent CPPDEFINES variable.
+
+ From Christoph Wiedemann:
+
+ - Have the g++ Tool actually use g++ in preference to c++.
+
+ - Have the gcc Tool actually use gcc in preference to cc.
+
+ - Add a gnutools.py test of the GNU tool chain.
+
+ - Be smarter about linking: use $CC by default and $CXX only if we're
+ linking with any C++ objects.
+
+ - Avoid SCons hanging when a piped command has a lot of output to read.
+
+ - Add QT support for preprocessing .ui files into .c files.
+

+RELEASE 0.90 - Wed, 25 Jun 2003 14:24:52 -0500
From Chad Austin:
- When reporting a target is up to date, quote the target like make
(backquote-quote) instead of with double quotes.
+ - Fix handling of ../* targets when using -U, -D or -u.
+
From Steve Leblanc:
- Don't update the .sconsign files when run with -n.
- Add support for MS Visual Studio project files (DSP, DSW,
SLN and VCPROJ files).
+ From Christoph Wiedemann
+
+ - SConf now works correctly when the -n and -q options are used.
