-==============IMPORTANT NOTICE===========
+==============IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR NEXT VERSION V2.5.0==========
+PLEASE READ. CHANGES COMING IN NEXT MAJOR RELEASE V2.5.0
-As has been pre-announced in SCons's mailing lists:
+We're enhancing implicit language scanning functionality to improve
+correctness. SCons now honors scanner keys for implicit dependencies
+and correctly changes scanner type (if necessary) when traversing
+implicit dependency trees.
-* https://pairlist4.pair.net/pipermail/scons-users/2014-July/002734.html ,
-* https://pairlist2.pair.net/pipermail/scons-dev/2014-December/002107.html
-* https://pairlist4.pair.net/pipermail/scons-users/2015-February/003454.html
+This enhancement resolves missing dependencies
+with built-in scanners including SWIG (#2264) and QT:
+* http://scons.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=2264
-We're planning to switch the Node class to using "slots" in the core sources,
-mainly to reduce memory consumption by up to 35% in large build projects.
+This enhancement broadens the horizon for handling heterogeneous
+data flow environments (E.G. software builds):
+* http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.programming.tools.scons.user/26596
+Notes:
-This feature has been tested extensively and we don't expect any problems for you.
-However as with all major changes it would be wise to test V2.4.0 when it is
-released. Especially if you are directly using the Node class.
+* SCons may find new (and correct) dependencies in cross-langauge contexts.
+** Update may cause rebuilds, especially in heterogeneous data environments.
+** Update may find previously missed dependencies errors (E.G. cycles).
+*** Discovered in some QT test cases.
+* SCons handles the SCANNERS variable differently.
+** Previously, the Install builder would scan implicit dependencies for
+ a scanner found in SCANNERS (but not for built-in scanners), but now
+ the Install builder will not scan recursively regardless in order
+ to optimize Install behaviour and bring orthogonality to previous behaviour.

Please consult the RELEASE.txt file for a summary of changes since the last
release and consult the CHANGES.txt file for complete a list of changes
since last release. This announcement highlights only the important
changes.
+ Please note the following important changes since release 2.4.0:
+ - Fix to swig tool - pick-up 'swig', 'swig3.0' and 'swig2.0' (in order).
+ - Fix to swig tool - respect env['SWIG'] provided by user.
+ - Fix for Bug # 2791 - Setup.py fails unnecessarily under Jython.
+ - Fixed license of SVG titlepage files in the context of Debian
+ packaging, such that they allow for commercial use too (#2985).
+ - InstallVersionedLib now available in the DefaultEnvironment context.
+ - Improves orthogonality of use cases between different Install functions.
+ - Added new configure check, CheckProg, to check for
+ existence of a program.
+ - Fix for issue #2840 - Fix for two environments specifying same target with different
+ actions not throwing hard error. Instead SCons was incorrectly issuing a warning
+ and continuing.
+ - Add support `Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7'
+ Compiler can be obtained at: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=44266
+ - Fixed tigris issue #3011: Glob() excludes didn't work when used with VariantDir(duplicate=0)
+ - Fix bug 2831 and allow Help() text to be appended to AddOption() help.
+ - Reimplemented versioning for shared libraries, with the following effects
+ - Fixed tigris issues #3001, #3006.
+ - Fixed several other issues not reported to tigris, including:
+ issues with versioned libraries in subdirectories with tricky names,
+ issues with versioned libraries and variant directories,
+ issue with soname not being injected to library when using D linkers,

usage. (PR #2180, #2178, #2198)

- A new SCons checkpoint release, 2.3.13.alpha.yyyymmdd, is now available
+ A new SCons release, 2.4.1, is now available
on the SCons download page:
http://www.scons.org/download.php
- 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.
-
- 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:
+ Here is a summary of the changes since 2.4.0:
NEW FUNCTIONALITY
-
- - List new features (presumably why a checkpoint is being released)
+ - InstallVersionedLib now available in the DefaultEnvironment context.
+ - Added new configure check, CheckProg, to check for existence of a program.
+ - Add support `Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7'
+ Compiler can be obtained at: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=44266
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
+ - Reimplemented versioning for shared libraries, with the following effects
+ - Fixed tigris issues #3001, #3006.
+ - Fixed several other issues not reported to tigris, including:
+ issues with versioned libraries in subdirectories with tricky names,
+ issues with versioned libraries and variant directories,
+ issue with soname not being injected to library when using D linkers,
+ - Switched to direct symlinks instead of daisy-chained ones -- soname and
+ development symlinks point directly to the versioned shared library now),

FIXES
- - List fixes of outright bugs
+ - Fix for issue #2840 - Fix for two environments specifying same target with different
+ actions not throwing hard error. Instead SCons was incorrectly issuing a warning
+ and continuing.
+ - Fix to swig tool - pick-up 'swig', 'swig3.0' and 'swig2.0' (in order).
+ - Fix to swig tool - respect env['SWIG'] provided by user.
+ - Fix for Bug # 2791 - Setup.py fails unnecessarily under Jython.
+ - Fixed license of SVG titlepage files in the context of Debian
+ packaging, such that they allow for commercial use too (#2985).
+ - Fixed tigris issue #3011: Glob() excludes didn't work when used with VariantDir(duplicate=0)
+ - Fix bug 2831 and allow Help() text to be appended to AddOption() help.
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
