https://scons.org/pages/download.html
Here is a summary of the changes since PREVIOUS_RELEASE:
NEW FUNCTIONALITY
- Add support for Visual Studio 2026.
CHANGED/ENHANCED EXISTING FUNCTIONALITY
- Switch test framework from using profile to cProfile. profile
generates deprecation warnings starting with Python 3.15.
FIXES
-
Enable membership tests on instances of Literal (non-substituting string).
-
In the SequenceTypes tuple used for dynamic type checks, include
the dict contents views, exclude the dictionary view itself as it
is not an iterable sequence type.
IMPROVEMENTS
- Internal: where the find method on a string was used to determine
if a substring is present, use the more readable "in" and "not in".
DOCUMENTATION
-
Improve documentation of builder methods and builder objects.
-
Make links clickable in the SetOption and GetOption manpage entries.
