Release Notes for Symbian Build System v2
-version 2.11.4
+version 2.12.0
+
+New Features:
+- New 'Patchable Constants' target type: TARGETTYPE pdll
+- Combine Linking and Postlinking into a single step - performance improvement.
+- Support exit codes from next version of the trace compiler which will issue them
+- New sbs_filter script and batchfile to ease the use of sbs_filter.py.
+ Allows filters to be executed over a log after a build has been done.
+ e.g.
+
+ sbs_filter --filters=FilterWhat < logfile.log
+
+ (This runs a "--what" without regenerating any makefiles or reparsing
+ the matadata.)
+- New (beta) FilterWhatComp filter. Simulates abld log output for
+ use with parse_what.pl for packing up zips by component. Whatcomp output
+ uses the incoming epocroot value. i.e. if epocroot is relative then so is
+ the what output. e.g. if EPOCROOT=\ then the output will be of the form:
+
+ "\epoc32\release\armv5\...."
+
+ If it's "..\myepocroot" then the output will be:
+
+ "..\myepocroot\epoc32\release\armv5".
+
+ If it's absolute then the what output will also be absolute.
+- New FilterCheck filter. This can be used with sbs_filter to perform the
+ equivalent of --check using the log output from a build. It is more
+ efficient than --check because the metadata is not parsed and no makefiles
+ are generated. e.g.
+
+ sbs_filter --filters=FilterCheck < logfile.log
+
+- New (beta) graphical build visualisation tool (bin/timelines.py).
+ Requires pygame and PyOpenGL. e.g.
+
+ python timelines.py < filename.log
+
+- New (beta) log analyser (recipestats.py) for recording the total time spent
+ in each type of recipe in the build. e.g.
+
+ python recipestats.py < filename.log > stats.csv
+
+ The output is in CSV format.
Defect Fixes:
-fix for ARM9E + ARMV5 pre-processing confusion
+- fix for ARM9E + ARMV5 pre-processing confusion
+- SF bug 1606: template_ext.flm wrongly creates dependencies to OTHER_CFG targets
+- SF bug 1570: Adding then removing a capability can produce incorrect
+ result: e.g. ALL TCB -TCB becomes ALL -TCB but it should be just ALL
+
+Other Changes:
+- Default to using Python 2.6.4 on windows (no change in compatibility with
+ older versions of Python).
