* Noteworthy changes in release ?.? (????-??-??) [?]
|
||||
|
||||
** New features
|
||||
|
||||
The 'job' procedure has now a '#:user' keyword argument which allows
|
||||
specifying a different user that will run it.
|
||||
|
||||
Additional man pages for 'cron(8)' and 'crontab(1)' are now generated using
|
||||
GNU Help2man.
|
||||
|
||||
** Bug fixes
|
||||
|
||||
Child process created when executing a job are now properly cleaned even
|
||||
when execution fails by using 'dynamic-wind' construct.
|
||||
|
||||
** Improvements
|
||||
|
||||
GNU Guile 2.2 is now supported.
|
||||
|
||||
Some procedures are now written using functional style and include a
|
||||
docstring. 'def-macro' usages are now replaced with hygienic macros.
|
||||
|
||||
Compilation is now done using a non-recursive Makefile, supports out of tree
|
||||
builds, and use silent rules by default.
|
||||
|
||||
Guile object files creation don't rely on auto-compilation anymore and are
|
||||
installed in 'site-ccache' directory.
|
||||
|
||||
Jobs are now internally represented using SRFI-9 records instead of vectors.
|
||||
|
||||
Changelog are generated from Git logs when generating the tarball using
|
||||
Gnulib gitlog-to-changelog script.
|
||||
|
||||
A test suite is now available and can be run with 'make check'.
|
||||
|
||||
** Changes in behavior
|
||||
|
||||
The "--enable-debug" configure variable has been removed and replaced with
|
||||
MCRON_DEBUG environment variable.
|
||||
|
||||
The "--disable-multi-user" configure variable is now used to not build and
|
||||
install the 'cron' and 'crontab' programs. It has replaced the
|
||||
"--enable-no-vixie-clobber" which had similar effect.
|
||||
|
||||
(mcron core) module is now deprecated and has been superseeded by
|
||||

||||
