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. + + 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. + + 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. + + 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. + + Here is a summary of the changes since 1.3.0: NEW FUNCTIONALITY - - Added Environment() variable TEMPFILEDIR which allows setting the directory which temp - files createdby TEMPFILEMUNGE are created in. + - List new features (presumably why a checkpoint is being released) DEPRECATED FUNCTIONALITY - - N/A + - List anything that's been deprecated since the last release CHANGED/ENHANCED EXISTING FUNCTIONALITY - - N/A + - List modifications to existing features, where the previous behavior + wouldn't actually be considered a bug FIXES - - Fix fortran tools to set SHFORTRAN variables to $FORTRAN, similarly SHF77, SHF90, SHF95, - SHF03 and SHF08 will default to the variables $F77, $F90, $F95, $F03 and $F08 respectively. - If you were depending on changing the value of FORTRAN (or $F[0-9][0-9]) having no effect - on the value of SHFORTRAN, this change will break that. The values of FORTRAN, F77, F90, - F95, F03, F08 and SHFORTRAN, SHF77 (etc.) now are not overridden in generate if alredy set - by the user. - - Fix subprocess execution of 'lslpp' on AIX to produce text standard i/o. - - Re-do the fix for suncxx tool (Oracle Studio compiler) now that only Python 3 is supported, - to avoid decoding errors. + - List fixes of outright bugs IMPROVEMENTS - - N/A + - 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 - - N/A + - List changes in the way SCons is packaged and/or released DOCUMENTATION - - N/A + - 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 - - N/A + - List visible changes in the way SCons is developed - Thanks to the following contributors listed below for their contributions to this release. + Thanks to CURLY, LARRY, and MOE for their contributions to this release. + Contributors are listed alphabetically by their last name. -git shortlog --no-merges -ns 4.0.0..HEAD - 12 William Deegan - 2 Rob Boehne - 1 Clemens Tolboom +__COPYRIGHT__ +__FILE__ __REVISION__ __DATE__ __DEVELOPER__ diff --git a/ReleaseConfig b/ReleaseConfig index 35b60cfc3..b58aad7f4 100755 --- a/ReleaseConfig +++ b/ReleaseConfig @@ -32,7 +32,7 @@ __revision__ = "__FILE__ __REVISION__ __DATE__ __DEVELOPER__" # 'final', the patchlevel is set to the release date.
