A new SCons release, 3.0.2, is now available on the SCons download page: https://scons.org/pages/download.html
Here is a summary of the changes since 3.0.1: NEW FUNCTIONALITY - Properly support versioned shared libraries for MacOS. We've also introduced two new env variables APPLELINK_CURRENT_VERSION and APPLELINK_COMPATIBILITY_VERSION which will specify what is passed to the linkers -current_version and -compatibility_version flags. If not specified they will be derived from SHLIBVERSION as such: - APPLELINK_CURRENT_VERSION = SHLIBVERSION - APPLELINK_COMPATIBILITY_VERSION = all but the last digit in SHLIBVERSION with .0 appended. Note that the values of the above will be validated. Valid format for either APPLELINK variable is X[.Y[.Z]] where 0 <= X <= 65535, 0 <= Y <= 255, 0 <= Z <= 255. - Add flag must_exist to SConscript() call to fail on missing script. Not failing on missing script is now considered deprecated, and the first instance will print a deprecation message. - Add xz compression format to packaging choices. - Add Textfile/Substfile to default environment. (issue #3147) - Added virtualenv support. A new function Virtualenv() determines whether SCons runs in a virtualenv. The search PATH may also be extended to prefer executables from the current virtualenv over the ones provided by base environment. New option --enable-virtualenv provided to import some virtualenv-related variables to SCons and extend every env['ENV']['PATH'] automatically. New option --ignore-virtualenv disables this. Two environment variables, SCONS_ENABLE_VIRTUALENV and SCONS_IGNORE_VIRTUALENV are supported for the same purpose. DEPRECATED FUNCTIONALITY - Going forward calling SConscript on a non-existing SConscript file will issue a warning. Currently it will issue a deprecation notice. CHANGED/ENHANCED EXISTING FUNCTIONALITY - Recognize new java 9, 10, 11 (as 9.0 and 10.0, 11.0) FIXES - Fix issue #2980 with credit to Piotr Bartosik (and William Blevins). This is an issue where using TimeStamp-MD5 Decider and CacheDir can yield incorrect md5's being written into the .sconsign. The difference between Piotr Bartosik's patch and the current code is that the more complicated creation of file to csig map is only done when the count of children for the current node doesn't match the previous count which is loaded from the sconsign.
