- A new SCons checkpoint release, 3.0.1, is now available
- on the SCons download page:
+A new SCons release, 3.0.5, is now available on the SCons download page:
- http://www.scons.org/download.php
+ https://scons.org/pages/download.html
- XXX The primary purpose of this release ... XXX
- A SCons "checkpoint release" is intended to provide early access to
- new features so they can be tested in the field before being released
- for adoption by other software distributions.
+Here is a summary of the changes since 3.0.4:
- Note that a checkpoint release is developed using the same test-driven
- development methodology as all SCons releases. Existing SCons
- functionality should all work as it does in previous releases (except
- for any changes identified in the release notes) and early adopters
- should be able to use a checkpoint release safely for production work
- with existing SConscript files. If not, it represents not only a bug
- in SCons but also a hole in the regression test suite, and we want to
- hear about it.
+CHANGED/ENHANCED EXISTING FUNCTIONALITY
- New features may be more lightly tested than in past releases,
- especially as concerns their interaction with all of the other
- functionality in SCons. We are especially interested in hearing bug
- reports about new functionality.
+ - Change the default for AppendENVPath to delete_existing=0, so path
+ order will not be changed, unless explicitly set (Issue #3276)
+ - Add lex construction variable LEXUNISTD for turning off unix headers on windows
+ - Update lex tool to use win_flex on windows if available
+ - Add the textfile tool to the default tool list
- We do not recommend that downstream distributions (Debian, Fedora,
- etc.) package a checkpoint release, mainly to avoid confusing the
- "public" release numbering with the long checkpoint release names.
+FIXES
- Here is a summary of the changes since 1.3.0:
+ - Fix Issue #3283 - Handle using --config=force in combination with Decider('MD5-timestamp').
+ 3.0.2 in fix for issue #2980 added that deciders can throw DeciderNeedsNode exception.
+ The Configure logic directly calls the decider when using --config=force but wasn't handling
+ that exception. This would yield minimally configure tests using TryLink() not running and
+ leaving TypeError Nonetype exception in config.log
+ - Fix Issue #3303 - Handle --config=force overwriting the Environment passed into Configure()'s
+ Decider and not clearing it when the configure context is completed.
+ - Add default paths for yacc tool on windows to include cygwin, mingw, and chocolatey
+ - Fix issue #2799 - Fix mingw tool to respect SHCCCOMSTR, SHLINKCOMSTR and LDMODULECOMSTR
+ - Fix Issue #3329 - Add support for MS SDK V10.0A (which is commonly installed with VS2017)
+ - Fix Issue #3333 - Add support for finding vswhere under 32 bit windows installs.
+ - Update the MSVC tool to include the nologo flag by default in RCFLAGS
+ - Fixed bug which threw error when running SCons on windows system with no MSVC installed.
