= Rake 0.9.0 Released
|
|
|
|
Rake version 0.9.0 has a number of bug fixes and enhancments (see
|
|
below for more details). Additionally, the internals have be slightly
|
|
restructured and improved.
|
|
|
|
== Changes
|
|
|
|
=== New Features / Enhancements / Bug Fixes in Version 0.9.0
|
|
|
|
* Rake now warns when the deprecated :needs syntax used (and suggests
|
|
the proper syntax in the warning).
|
|
|
|
* Moved Rake DSL commands to top level ruby object 'main'. Rake DSL
|
|
commands are no longer private methods in Object. (Suggested by
|
|
James M. Lawrence/quix)
|
|
|
|
* Rake now uses case-insensitive comparisons to find the Rakefile on Windows.
|
|
Based on patch by Roger Pack.
|
|
|
|
* Rake now requires (instead of loads) files in the test task. Patch by Cezary
|
|
Baginski.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed typos. Patches by Sean Scot August Moon and R.T. Lechow.
|
|
|
|
* Rake now prints the Rakefile directory only when it's different from the
|
|
current directory. Patch by Alex Chaffee.
|
|
|
|
* Improved rakefile_location discovery on Windows. Patch by James Tucker.
|
|
|
|
* Rake now recognizes "Windows Server" as a windows system. Patch by Matthias
|
|
Lüdtke
|
|
|
|
* Rake::RDocTask is deprecated. Use RDoc::Task from RDoc 2.4.2+ (require
|
|
'rdoc/task')
|
|
|
|
* Rake::GemPackageTask is deprecated. Use Gem::PackageTask (require
|
|
'rubygems/package_task')
|
|
|
|
* Rake now outputs various messages to $stderr instead of $stdout.
|
|
|
|
* Rake no longer emits warnings for Config. Patch by Santiago Pastorino.
|
|
|
|
* Removed Rake's DSL methods from the top level scope. If you need to
|
|
call 'task :xzy' in your code, include Rake::DSL into your class, or
|
|
put the code in a Rake::DSL.environment do ... end block.
|
|
|
|
* Split rake.rb into individual files.
|
|
|
|
* Support for the --where (-W) flag for showing where a task is defined.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed quoting in test task.

|
|
|
|
* Fixed the silent option parsing problem.
|
|
(http://onestepback.org/redmine/issues/show/47)
|
|
|
|
* Fixed :verbose=>false flag on sh and ruby commands.
|
|
|
|
* Rake command line options may be given by default in a RAKEOPT
|
|
environment variable.
|
|
|
|
* Errors in Rake will now display the task invocation chain in effect
|
|
at the time of the error.
|
|
|
|
* Accepted change by warnickr to not expand test patterns in shell
|
|
(allowing more files in the test suite).
|
|
|
|
* Fixed that file tasks did not perform prereq lookups in scope
|
|
(Redmine #57).

== What is Rake
|
|
|
|
Rake is a build tool similar to the make program in many ways. But
|
|
instead of cryptic make recipes, Rake uses standard Ruby code to
|
|
declare tasks and dependencies. You have the full power of a modern
|
|
scripting language built right into your build tool.
|
|
|
|
== Availability
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to get and install rake is via RubyGems ...
|
|
|
|
gem install rake (you may need root/admin privileges)
|
|
|
|
Otherwise, you can get it from the more traditional places:
|
|
|
|
Home Page:: http://rake.rubyforge.org/
|
|
Download:: http://rubyforge.org/project/showfiles.php?group_id=50
|
|
GitHub:: git://github.com/jimweirich/rake.git

Also, bit thanks to Eric Hodel for assisting with getting this release

out the door (where "assisting" includes, but is not by any means
|
|
limited to, "pushing" me to get it done).
