jbuilder.1.0+beta17

Fast, portable and opinionated build system

jbuilder is a build system that was designed to simplify the release
of Jane Street packages. It reads metadata from "jbuild" files
following a very simple s-expression syntax.

jbuilder is fast, it has very low-overhead and support parallel builds
on all platforms. It has no system dependencies, all you need to build
jbuilder and packages using jbuilder is OCaml. You don't need or make
or bash as long as the packages themselves don't use bash explicitely.

jbuilder supports multi-package development by simply dropping multiple
repositories into the same directory.

It also supports multi-context builds, such as building against
several opam roots/switches simultaneously. This helps maintaining
packages across several versions of OCaml and gives cross-compilation
for free.

1.0+beta17 (23/01/2018)

• Make jbuilder aware that num is an external package in OCaml >= 4.06.0
  (Add PPrint to the list of OPAM packages #358)

• jbuilder exec will now rebuild the executable before running it if
  necessary. This can be turned off by passing --no-build (milter package version 1.0.0 #345)

• Fix jbuilder utop to work in any working directory (Package for the new release of ocurl #339)

• Fix generation of META synopsis that contains double quotes (Two more (alpha) packages: datalog and zipperposition #337)

• Add S . to .merlin by default (add experimental open types compiler switch  #284)

• Improve jbuilder exec to make it possible to execute non public executables.
  jbuilder exec path/bin will execute bin inside default (or specified)
  context relative to path. jbuilder exec /path will execute /path as
  absolute path but with the context's environment set appropriately. Lastly,
  jbuilder exec will change the root as to which paths are relative using the
  -root option. (Better oqamldebug package description and disabling bundle generation on macos #286)

• Fix jbuilder rules printing rules when some binaries are missing (oqamldebug package (v0.9.2) #292)

• Build documentation for non public libraries (opam pin strange behavior #306)

• Fix doc generation when several private libraries have the same name (Added release 109.08.00 of packages of the core suite #369)

• Fix copy# for C/C++ with Microsoft C compiler (core/async fails to build #353)

• Add support for cross-compilation. Currently we are supporting the
  opam-cross-x repositories such as
  opam-cross-windows
  (small fix, no version update #355)

• Simplify generated META files: do not generate the transitive
  closure of dependencies in META files (mark broken package #405)

• Deprecated ${!...}: the split behavior is now a property of the
  variable. For instance ${CC}, ${^}, ${read-lines:...} all
  expand to lists unless used in the middle of a longer atom (Added a small package for iterators on sequences #336)

• Add an (include ...) stanza allowing one to include another
  non-generated jbuild file in the current file (release package version 1.0.3 #402)

• Add a (diff <file1> <file2>) action allowing to diff files and
  promote generated files in case of mismatch (release package version 1.0.3 #402, Mesh, version 0.7.4 #421)

• Add jbuilder promote and --auto-promote to promote files (release package version 1.0.3 #402,
  Mesh, version 0.7.4 #421)

• Report better errors when using (glob_files ...) with a directory
  that doesn't exist (add ocamltop-gtk 2.1.1 #413, Fix CamlGI installation workaround (See #410) #412)

• Jbuilder now properly handles correction files produced by
  ppx_driver. This allows to use [@@deriving_inline] in .ml/.mli
  files. This require ppx_driver >= v0.10.2 to work properly (add cgi 0.8 #415)

• Make jbuilder load rules lazily instead of generating them all
  eagerly. This speeds up the initial startup time of jbuilder on big
  workspaces (ReactiveML package #370)

• Now longer generate a META.pkg.from-jbuilder file. Now the only
  way to customise the generated META file is through
  META.pkg.template. This feature was unused and was making the code
  complicated (ReactiveML package #370)

• Remove read-only attribute on Windows before unlink (github update #247)

• Use /Fo instead of -o when invoking the Microsoft C compiler to eliminate
  deprecation warning when compiling C++ sources ( type_conv.109.07.00 is for >= 4.00.0 only #354)

• Display a warning for invalid lines in jbuild-ignore (ocamltop-gtk installs into system bin directory  #389)

[mseri]

There are still lots of failures of the form

# File "_none_", line 1:
# Error: No implementations provided for the following modules:
#          Ppx_compare_lib referenced from /home/opam/.opam/4.05.0/lib/ppx_expect/common/expect_test_common.cmxa(Expect_test_common__File)

[avsm]

Yeah; needs a respin @rgrinberg

Closing this one for now.
