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. - NEW FUNCTIONALITY - - List new features (presumably why a checkpoint is being released) +IMPROVEMENTS + - Do not store build host+user name if reproducible builds are wanted - DEPRECATED FUNCTIONALITY - - List anything that's been deprecated since the last release - - CHANGED/ENHANCED EXISTING FUNCTIONALITY - - - List modifications to existing features, where the previous behavior - wouldn't actually be considered a bug - - FIXES - - - List fixes of outright bugs - - IMPROVEMENTS - - - List improvements that wouldn't be visible to the user in the - documentation: performance improvements (describe the circumstances - under which they would be observed), or major code cleanups - - PACKAGING - - - List changes in the way SCons is packaged and/or released - - DOCUMENTATION - - - List any significant changes to the documentation (not individual - typo fixes, even if they're mentioned in src/CHANGES.txt to give - the contributor credit) - - DEVELOPMENT - - - List visible changes in the way SCons is developed - - Thanks to CURLY, LARRY, and MOE for their contributions to this release. - Contributors are listed alphabetically by their last name. - -Copyright (c) 2001 - 2017 The SCons Foundation -src/RELEASE.txt 74b2c53bc42290e911b334a6b44f187da698a668 2017/11/14 13:16:53 bdbaddog +git shortlog --no-merges -ns 3.0.4..HEAD + 34 William Deegan + 33 Mats Wichmann + 18 Daniel + 4 Daniel Moody + 3 Bernhard M.
