DSSS, the D Shared Software System, is a tool to ease the building,
installation, configuration and acquisition of D software.
OK, release 0.77 had some ... issues. I fixed some things up and 0.78
should be a bit better. The changelog:
- Rebuild: Removed some needless errors that could cause
problems with
using D-2 keywords in D-1 code.
- Rebuild: Fixed -exec. (see ticket #203)
- Rebuild: Documented -gui. (see ticket #180)
- Fixed installation of debug libraries. (see ticket #185)
- Substantially reduced the default verbosity. -v now gives the
previous verbosity, -vv puts rebuild in verbose mode as well.
- Rebuild: Allow general link flags in pragma(link) (for Mac OS X
frameworks, etc.
- Rebuild: -S with forward slashes now works on Windows. (see
ticket
#182)
- defaulttargets with forward slashes now works on Windows.
- Multiple '..' elements in section names will now be interpreted
correctly. (see ticket #198)
- Rebuild: Fixed library-linking problems.
The most user-visible difference is the reduced verbosity. I
consistently get complaints about outputting the rebuild line, both from
people with very long rebuild lines and from people who think that
constitutes a complete rebuild every time. So, it's out the window. Use
-v to see the commands run, use -vv to set rebuild to verbose mode too.
I'll repeat this: I'm running severely low on time (I'm now a graduate
student), so I'm looking for help. Anything from handling tickets to
porting help to anything else you can think of, I'd really appreciate.
