CHANGES.md.html
2.1.2 (08/01/2020)
Fix a bug in the
Fiber.finalize
function of the concurrency monad of Dune, causing a race condition at the user level (#3009, fix #2958, @diml)
2.1.1 (07/01/2020)
Guess foreign archives & native archives for libraries defined using the
META
format. (#2994, @rgrinberg, @anmonteiro)Fix generation of
.merlin
files when depending on local libraries with more than one source directory. (#2983, @rgrinberg)
2.1.0 (21/12/2019)
Attach cinaps stanza actions to both
@runtest
and@cinaps
aliases (#2831, @NathanReb)Add variables
%{lib-private...}
and%{libexec-private...}
for finding build paths of files in public and private libraries within the same project. (#2901, @snowleopard)Add
--mandir
option to$ dune install
. This option allows to override the installation directory for man pages. (#2915, fixes #2670, @rgrinberg)Fix
dune --version
. The bootstrap didn't compute the version correctly. (#2929, fixes #2911, @diml)Do not open the log file in
dune clean
. (#2965, fixes #2964 and #2921, @diml)Support passing two arguments to
=
,<>
, ... operators in package dependencies so that we can have things such as(<> :os win32)
(#2965, @diml)
2.0.1 (17/12/2019)
Delay errors raised by invalid
dune-package
files. The error is now raised only if the invalid package is treated as a library and used to build something. (#2972, @rgrinberg)
2.0.0 (20/11/2019)
Remove existing destination files in
install
before installing the new ones. (#2885, fixes #2883, @bschommer)The
action
field in thealias
stanza is not available startinglang dune 2.0
. Thealias
field in therule
stanza is a replacement. (#2846, fixes 2681, @rgrinberg)Introduce
alias
andpackage
fields to therule
stanza. This is the preferred way of attaching rules to aliases. (#2744, @rgrinberg)Add field
(optional)
for executable stanzas (#2463, fixes #2433, @bobot)Infer targets for rule stanzas expressed in long form (#2494, fixes #2469, @NathanReb)
Indicate the progress of the initial file tree loading (#2459, fixes #2374, @bobot)
Build
.cm[ox]
files for executables more eagerly. This speeds up builds at the cost of building unnecessary artifacts in some cases. Some of these extra artifacts can fail to built, so this is a breaking change. (#2268, @rgrinberg)Do not put the
<package>.install
files in the source tree unless-p
or--promote-install-files
is passed on the command line (#2329, @diml)Compilation units of user defined executables are now mangled by default. This is done to prevent the accidental collision with library dependencies of the executable. (#2364, fixes #2292, @rgrinberg)
Enable
(explicit_js_mode)
by default. (#1941, @nojb)Add an option to clear the console in-between builds with
--terminal-persistence=clear-on-rebuild
Stop symlinking object files to main directory for stanzas defined
jbuild
files (#2440, @rgrinberg)Library names are now validated in a strict fashion. Previously, invalid names would be allowed for unwrapped libraries (#2442, @rgrinberg)
mli only modules must now be explicitly declared. This was previously a warning and is now an error. (#2442, @rgrinberg)
Modules filtered out from the module list via the Ordered Set Language must now be actual modules. (#2442, @rgrinberg)
Actions which introduce targets where new targets are forbidden (e.g. preprocessing) are now an error instead of a warning. (#2442, @rgrinberg)
No longer install a
jbuilder
binary. (#2441, @diml)Stub names are no longer allowed relative paths. This was previously a warning and is now an error (#2443, @rgrinberg).
Define (paths ...) fields in (context ...) definitions in order to set or extend any PATH-like variable in the context environment. (#2426, @nojb)
The
diff
action will always normalize newlines before diffing. Perviousy, it would not do this normalization for rules defined in jbuild files. (#2457, @rgrinberg)Modules may no longer belong to more than one stanza. This was previously allowed only in stanzas defined in
jbuild
files. (#2458, @rgrinberg)Remove support for
jbuild-ignore
files. They have been replaced by the thedirs
stanza indune
files. (#2456, @rgrinberg)Add a new config option
sandboxing_preference
, the cli argument--sandbox
, and the dep specsandbox
in dune language. These let the user control the level of sandboxing done by dune per rule and globally. The rule specification takes precedence. The global configuration merely specifies the default. (#2213, @aalekseyev, @diml)Remove support for old style subsystems. Dune will now emit a warning to reinstall the library with the old style subsystem. (#2480, @rgrinberg)
Add action (with-stdin-from
) to redirect input from when performing . (#2487, @nojb) Change the automatically generated odoc index to only list public modules. This only affects unwrapped libraries (#2479, @rgrinberg)
Set up formatting rules by default. They can be configured through a new
(formatting)
stanza indune-project
(#2347, fixes #2315, @emillon)Change default target from
@install
to@all
. (#2449, fixes #1220, @rgrinberg)Include building stubs in
@check
rules. (@rgrinberg, #2530)Get rid of ad-hoc rules for guessing the version. Dune now only relies on the version written in the
dune-project
file and no longer readVERSION
or similar files (#2541, @diml)In
(diff? x y)
action, requirex
to exist and register a dependency on that file. (#2486, @aalekseyev)On Windows, an .exe suffix is no longer added implicitly to binary names that already end in .exe. Second, when resolving binary names, .opt variants are no longer chosen automatically. (#2543, @nojb)
Make
(diff? x y)
move the correction file (y
) away from the build directory to promotion staging area. This makes corrections work with sandboxing and in general reduces build directory pollution. (#2486, @aalekseyev, fixes #2482)c_flags
,c_names
andcxx_names
are now supported inexecutable
andexecutables
stanzas. (#2562, @nojb) Note: this feature has been subsequently extended into a separateforeign_stubs
field. (#2659, RFC #2650, @snowleopard)Remove git integration from
$ dune upgrade
(#2565, @rgrinberg)Add a
--disable-promotion
to disable all modification to the source directory. There's also a correspondingDUNE_DISABLE_PROMOTION
environment variable. (#2588, fix #2568, @rgrinberg)Add a
forbidden_libraries
field to prevent some library from being linked in an executable. This help detecting who accidently pulls inunix
for instance (#2570, @diml)Fix incorrect error message when a variable is expanded in static context:
%{lib:lib:..}
when the library does not exist. (#2597, fix #1541, @rgrinberg)Add
--sections
option to$ dune install
to install subsections of .install files. This is useful for installing only the binaries in a workspace for example. (#2609, fixes #2554, @rgrinberg)Drop support for
jbuild
andjbuild-ignore
files (#2607, @diml)Add a
dune-action-plugin
library for describing dependencies direcly in the executable source. Programs that use this feature can be run by a new action (dynamic-run...). (#2635, @staronj, @aalekseyev) Stop installing the
ocaml-syntax-shims
binary. In order to usefuture_syntax
, one now need to depend on theocaml-syntax-shims
package (#2654, @diml)Add support for dependencies that are re-exported. Such dependencies are marked with
re_export
and will automatically be provided to users of a library (#2605, @rgrinberg)Add a
deprecated_library_name
stanza to redirect old names after a library has been renamed (#2528, @diml)Error out when a
preprocessor_deps
field is present but notpreprocess
field is. It is a warning with Dune 1.x projects (#2660, @Julow)Dune will use
-output-complete-exe
instead of-custom
when compiling self-contained bytecode executables whenever this options is available (OCaml version >= 4.10) (#2692, @nojb)Add action
(with-accepted-exit-codes <pred> <action>)
to specify the set of successful exit codes of<action>
.<pred>
is specified using the predicate language. (#2699, @nojb)Do not setup rules for disabled libraries (#2491, fixes #2272, @bobot)
Configurator: filter out empty flags from
pkg-config
(#2716, @AltGr)no_keep_locs
is a no-op for projects that uselang dune
older than 2.0. In projects where the language is at least2.0
, the field is now forbidden. (#2752, fixes #2747, @rgrinberg)Extend support for foreign sources and archives via the
(foreign_library ...)
stanza as well as the(foreign_stubs ...)
and(foreign_archives ...)
fields. (#2659, RFC #2650, @snowleopard)Add (deprecated_package_names) field to (package) declaration in dune-project. The names declared here can be used in the (old_public_name) field of (deprecated_library_name) stanza. These names are interpreted as library names (not prefixed by a package name) and appropiate redirections are setup in their META files. This feaure is meant to migrate old libraries which do not follow Dune's convention of prefixing libraries with the package name. (#2696, @nojb)
The fields
license
,authors
,maintainers
,source
,bug_reports
,homepage
, anddocumentation
ofdune-project
can now be overriden on a per-package basis. (#2774, @nojb)Change the default
modes
field of executables to(mode exe)
. If one wants to build a bytecode program, it now needs to be explicitly requested via(modes byte exe)
. (#2851, @diml)Allow
ccomp_type
as a variable for evaluatingenabled_if
. (#2855, @dra27, @rgrinberg)Stricter validation of file names in
select
. The file names of conditional sources must match the prefix and the extension of the resultant filename. (#2867, @rgrinberg)Add flag
disable_dynamically_linked_foreign_archives
to the workspace file. If the flag is set totrue
then: (i) when installing libraries, we do not install dynamic foreign archivesdll*.so
; (ii) when building executables in thebyte
mode, we statically link in foreign archives into the runtime system; (iii) we do not generate anydll*.so
rules. (#2864, @snowleopard)Reimplement the bootstrap procedure. The new procedure is faster and should no longer stack overflow (#2854, @dra27, @diml)
Allow
.opam.template
files to be generated using rules (#2866, @rgrinberg)
1.11.4 (09/10/2019)
Allow to mark directories as
data_only_dirs
without including them asdirs
(#2619, fix #2584, @rgrinberg)Fix reading
.install
files generated with an external--build-dir
. (#2638, fix #2629, @rgrinberg)
1.11.3 (23/08/2019)
Fix a ppx hash collision in watch mode (#2546, fixes #2520, @diml)
1.11.2 (20/08/2019)
Remove the optimisation of passing
-nodynlink
for executalbes when not necessary. It seems to be breaking things (see #2527, @diml)Fix invalid library names in
dune-package
files. Only public names should exist in such files. (#2558, fix #2425, @rgrinberg)
1.11.1 (09/08/2019)
Fix config file dependencies of ocamlformat (#2471, fixes #2464, @nojb)
Cleanup stale directories when using
(source_tree ...)
in the presence of directories with only sub-directories and no files (#2514, fixes #2499, @diml)
1.11.0 (23/07/2019)
Don't select all local implementations in
dune utop
. Instead, let the default implementation selection do its job. (#2327, fixes #2323, @TheLortex, review by @rgrinberg)Check that selected implementations (either by variants or default implementations) are indeed implementations. (#2328, @TheLortex, review by @rgrinberg)
Don't reserve the
Ppx
toplevel module name for ppx rewriters (#2242, @diml)Redesign of the library variant feature according to the #2134 proposal. The set of variants is now computed when the virtual library is installed. Introducing a new
external_variant
stanza. (#2169, fixes #2134, @TheLortex, review by @diml)Add proper line directives when copying
.cc
and.cxx
sources (#2275, @rgrinberg)Fix error message for missing C++ sources. The
.cc
extension was always ignored before. (#2275, @rgrinberg)Add
$ dune init project
subcommand to create project boilerplate according to a common template. (#2185, fixes #159, @shonfeder)Allow to run inline tests in javascript with nodejs (#2266, @hhugo)
Build
ppx.exe
as compiling host binary. (#2286, fixes #2252, @toots, review by @rgrinberg and @diml)Add a
cinaps
extension and stanza for better integration with the cinaps tool tool (#2269, @diml)Allow to embed build info in executables such as version and list and version of statically linked libraries (#2224, @diml)
Set version in
META
anddune-package
files to the one read from the vcs when no other version is available (#2224, @diml)Add a variable
%{target}
to be used in situations where the context requires at most one word, so%{targets}
can be confusing; stdout redirections and "-o" arguments of various tools are the main use case; also, introduce a separate fieldtarget
that must be used instead oftargets
in those situations. (#2341, @aalekseyev)Fix dependency graph of wrapped_compat modules. Previously, the dependency on the user written entry module was omitted. (#2305, @rgrinberg)
Allow to promote executables built with an
executable
stanza (#2379, @diml)When instantiating an implementation with a variant, make sure it matches virtual library's list of known implementations. (#2361, fixes #2322, @TheLortex, review by @rgrinberg)
Add a variable
%{ignoring_promoted_rules}
that istrue
when--ingore-promoted-rules
is passed on the command line and false otherwise (#2382, @diml)Fix a bug in
future_syntax
where the characters@
and&
were not distinguished in the names of binding operators (let@
was the same aslet&
) (#2376, @aalekseyev, @diml)Workspaces with non unique project names are now supported. (#2377, fix #2325, @rgrinberg)
Improve opam generation to include the
dune
dependencies with the minimum constraint set based on the dune language version specified in thedune-project
file. (2383, @avsm)The order of fields in the generated opam file now follows order preferred in opam-lib. (@avsm, #2380)
Fix coloring of error messages from the compiler (@diml, #2384)
Add warning
66
to default set of warnings starting for dune projects with language verison >=1.11
(@rgrinberg, @diml, fixes #2299)Add (dialect ...) stanza (@nojb, #2404)
Add a
--context
argument todune install/uninstall
(@diml, #2412)Do not warn about merlin files pre 1.9. This warning can only be disabled in 1.9 (#2421, fixes #2399, @emillon)
Add a new
inline_tests
field in the env stanza to control inline_tests framework with a variable (#2313, @mlasson, original idea by @diml, review by @rgrinberg).New binary kind
js
for executables in order to explicitly enable Javascript targets, and a switch(explicit_js_mode)
to require this mode in order to declare JS targets corresponding to executables. (#1941, @nojb)
1.10.0 (04/06/2019)
Restricted the set of variables available for expansion in the destination filename of
install
stanza to simplify implementation and avoid dependency cycles. (#2073, @aalekseyev, @diml)[menhir] call menhir from context root build_dir (#2067, @ejgallego, review by @diml, @rgrinberg)
[coq] Add
coq.pp
stanza to help with pre-processing of grammar files (#2054, @ejgallego, review by @rgrinberg)Add a new more generic form for the promote mode:
(promote (until-clean) (into <dir>))
(#2068, @diml)Allow to promote only a subset of the targets via
(promote (only <pred>))
. For instance:(promote (only *.mli))
(#2068, @diml)Improve the behavior when a strict subset of the targets of a rule is already in the source tree for projects using the dune language < 1.10 (#2068, fixes #2061, @diml)
With lang dune >= 1.10, rules in standard mode are no longer allowed to produce targets that are present in the source tree. This has been a warning for long enough (#2068, @diml)
Allow %{...} variables in pps flags (#2076, @mlasson review by @diml and @aalekseyev).
Add a 'cookies' option to ppx_rewriter/deriver flags in library stanzas. This allow to specify cookie requests from variables expanded at each invocation of the preprocessor. (#2106, @mlasson @diml)
Add more opam metadata and use it to generate
.opam
files. In particular, apackage
field has been added to specify package specific information. (#2017, #2091, @avsm, @jonludlam, @rgrinberg)Clean up the special support for
findlib.dynload
. Before, Dune would simply match on the library name. Now, we only match on the findlib package name when the library doesn't come from Dune. Someone writing a library calledfindlib.dynload
with Dune would have to add(special_builtin_support findlib_dynload)
to trigger the special behavior. (#2115, @diml)Install the
future_syntax
preprocessor asocaml-syntax-shims.exe
(#2125, @rgrinberg)Hide full command on errors and warnings in development and show them in CI. (detected using the
CI
environment variable). Commands for which the invocation might be omitted must output an error prefixed withFile
. Add an--always-show-command-line
option to disable this behavior and always show the full command. (#2120, fixes #1733, @rgrinberg)In
dune-workspace
files, add the ability to choose the host context and to create duplicates of the default context with different settings. (#2098, @TheLortex, review by @diml, @rgrinberg and @aalekseyev)Add support for hg in
dune subst
(#2135, @diml)Don't build documentation for implementations of virtual libraries (#2141, fixes #2138, @jonludlam)
Fix generation of the
-pp
flag in .merlin (#2142, @rgrinberg)Make
dune subst
add a(version ...)
field to thedune-project
file (#2148, @diml)Add the
%{os_type}
variable, which is a short-hand for%{ocaml-config:os_type}
(#1764, @diml)Allow
enabled_if
fields inlibrary
stanzas, restricted to the%{os_type}
,%{model}
,%{architecture}
,%{system}
variables (#1764, #2164 @diml, @rgrinberg)Fix
chdir
on external and source paths. Dune will also fail gracefully if the external or source path does not exist (#2165, fixes #2158, @rgrinberg)Support the
.cc
extension fro C++ sources (#2195, fixes #83, @rgrinberg)Run
ocamlformat
relative to the context root. This improves the locations of errors. (#2196, fixes #1370, @rgrinberg)Fix detection of
README
,LICENSE
,CHANGE
, andHISTORY
files. These would be undetected whenever the project was nested in another workspace. (#2194, @rgrinberg)Fix generation of
.merlin
whenever there's more than one stanza with the same ppx preprocessing specification (#2209 ,fixes #2206, @rgrinberg)Fix generation of
.merlin
in the presence of thecopy_files
stanza and preprocessing specifications of other stanazs. (#2211, fixes #2206, @rgrinberg)Run
refmt
from the context's root directory. This improves error messages in case of syntax errors. (#2223, @rgrinberg)In .merlin files, don't pass
-dump-ast
to thefuture_syntax
preprocessor. Merlin doesn't seem to like it when binary AST is generated by a-pp
preprocessor. (#2236, @aalekseyev)dune install
will verify that all files mentioned in all .install files exist before trying to install anything. This prevents partial installation of packages (#2230, @rgrinberg)
1.9.3 (06/05/2019)
Fix
.install
files not being generated (#2124, fixes #2123, @rgrinberg)
1.9.2 (02/05/2019)
Put back library variants in development mode. We discovered a serious unexpected issue and we might need to adjust the design of this feature before we are ready to commit to a final version. Users will need to write
(using library_variants 0.1)
in theirdune-project
file if they want to use it before the design is finalized. (#2116, @diml)Forbid to attach a variant to a library that implements a virtual library outside the current project (#2104, @rgrinberg)
Fix a bug where
dune install
would install man pages to incorrect paths when compared toopam-installer
. For example dune now installs(foo.1 as man1/foo.1)
correctly and previously that was installed toman1/man1/foo.1
. (#2105, @aalekseyev)Do not fail when a findlib directory doesn't exist (#2101, fix #2099, @diml)
[coq] Rename
(coqlib ...)
to(coq.theory ...)
, support forcoqlib
will be dropped in the 1.0 version of the Coq language (#2055, @ejgallego)Fix crash when calculating library dependency closure (#2090, fixes #2085, @rgrinberg)
Clean up the special support for
findlib.dynload
. Before, Dune would simply match on the library name. Now, we only match on the findlib package name when the library doesn't come from Dune. Someone writing a library calledfindlib.dynload
with Dune would have to add(special_builton_support findlib_dynload)
to trigger the special behavior. (#2115, @diml)Include permissions in the digest of targets and dependencies (#2121, fix #1426, @rgrinberg, @xclerc)
1.9.1 (11/04/2019)
Fix invocation of odoc to add previously missing include paths, impacting mld files that are not in directories containing libraries (#2016, fixes #2007, @jonludlam)
1.9.0 (09/04/2019)
Warn when generated
.merlin
does not reflect the preprocessing specification. This occurs when multiple stanzas in the same directory use different preprocessing specifications. This warning can now be disabled withallow_approx_merlin
(#1947, fix #1946, @rgrinberg)Watch mode: display "Success" in green and "Had errors" in red (#1956, @emillon)
Fix glob dependencies on installed directories (#1965, @rgrinberg)
Add support for library variants and default implementations. (#1900, @TheLortex)
Add experimental
$ dune init
command. This command is used to create or update project boilerplate. (#1448, fixes #159, @shonfeder)Experimental Coq support (fix #1466, @ejgallego)
Install .cmi files of private modules in a
.private
directory (#1983, fix #1973 @rgrinberg)Fix
dune subst
attempting to substitute on directories. (#2000, fix #1997, @rgrinberg)Do not list private modules in the generated index. (#2009, fix #2008, @rgrinberg)
Warn instead of failing if an opam file fails to parse. This opam file can still be used to define scope. (#2023, @rgrinberg)
Do not crash if unable to read a directory when traversing to find root (#2024, @rgrinberg)
Do not exit dune if some source directories are unreadable. Instead, warn the user that such directories need to be ignored (#2004, fix #310, @rgrinberg)
Fix nested
(binaries ..)
fields in theenv
stanza. Previously, parentbinaries
fields would be ignored, but instead they should be combined. (#2029, @rgrinberg)Allow "." in
c_names
andcxx_names
(#2036, fix #2033, @rgrinberg)Format rules: if a dune file uses OCaml syntax, do not format it. (#2014, fix #2012, @emillon)
1.8.2 (10/03/2019)
Fix auto-generated
index.mld
. Use correct headings for the listing. (#1925, @rgrinberg, @aantron)
1.8.1 (08/03/2019)
Correctly write
dune-package
when version is empty string (#1919, fix #1918, @rgrinberg)
1.8.0 (07/03/2019)
Clean up watch mode polling loop: improves signal handling and error handling during polling (#1912, fix #1907, fix #1671, @aalekseyev)
Change status messages during polling to be one-line, so that the messages are correctly erased by ^K. (#1912, @aalekseyev)
Add support for
.cxx
extension for C++ stubs (#1831, @rgrinberg)Add
DUNE_WORKSPACE
variable. This variable is equivalent to setting--workspace
in the command line. (#1711, fix #1503, @rgrinberg)Add
c_flags
andcxx_flags
to env profile settings (#1700 and #1800, @gretay-js)Format
dune printenv
output (#1867, fix #1862, @emillon)Add the
(promote-into <dir>)
and `(promote-until-clean-into)` modes for `(rule ...)` stanzas, so that files can be promoted in another directory than the current one. For instance, this is used in merlin to promote menhir generated files in a directory that depends on the version of the compiler (#1890, @diml) Improve error message when
dune subst
fails (#1898, fix #1897, @rgrinberg)Add more GC counters to catapult traces (fix908, @rgrinberg)
Add a preprocessor shim for the
let+
syntax of OCaml 4.08 (#1899, implements #1891, @diml)Fix generation of
.merlin
files on Windows.\
characters needed to be escaped (#1869, @mlasson)Fix 0 error code when
$ dune format-dune-file
fails. (#1915, fix #1914, @rgrinberg)Configurator: deprecated
query_expr
and introducedquery_expr_err
which is the same but with a better error in case it fails. (#1886, @ejgallego)Make sure
(menhir (mode promote) ...)
stanzas are ignored when using--ignore-promoted-rules
or-p
(#1917, @diml)
1.7.3 (27/02/2019)
Fix interpretation of
META
files containing archives with/
in the filename. For instance, this was causing llvm to be unusable with dune (#1889, fix #1885, @diml)Make errors about menhir stanzas be located (#1881, fix #1876, @diml)
1.7.2 (21/02/2019)
Add
${corrected-suffix}
,${library-name}
and a few other variables to the list of variables to upgrade. This fixes the support for various framework producing corrections (#1840, #1853, @diml)Fix
$ dune subst

Add a workaround for when a library normally installed by the compiler is not installed but still has a META file (#574, fixes #563)
Do not depend on ocamlfind. Instead, hard-code the library path when installing from opam (#575)
Change the default behavior regarding the check for overlaps between local and installed libraries. Now even if there is no link time conflict, we don't allow an external dependency to overlap with a local library, unless the user specifies

Fix generation of the implicit alias module with 4.02. With 4.02 it must have an implementation while with OCaml >= 4.03 it can be an interface only module (#549)
Let the parser distinguish quoted strings from atoms. This makes possible to use "${v}" to concatenate the list of values provided by a split-variable. Concatenating split-variables with text is also now required to be quoted.
Split calls to ocamldep. Before ocamldep would be called once per

Fix build on 32-bit OCaml (#313)
1.0+beta15 (04/11/2017)
Change the semantic of aliases: there are no longer aliases that are recursive such as
install
orruntest
. All aliases are non-recursive. However, when requesting an alias from the command line, this request the construction of the alias in the specified directory and all its children recursively. This allows users to get the same behavior as previous recursive aliases for their own aliases, such asexample
. Inside jbuild files, one can use(deps (... (alias_rec xxx) ...))
to get the same behavior as on the command line. (#268)Include sub libraries that have a

Fix the error message when there are more than one

Inside user actions,
${^}

When the dependencies and targets of a rule can be inferred automatically, you no longer need to write them:
