  • Add qibuild info to display information about a qibuild project
  • Add qibuild list-profiles
  • qibuid run:
    • Fix running arbitrary commands
    • Ask when several matching binaries are found instead of raising
    • Use os.execve to better handle ctrl-c
  • qibuid add-config: preserve environment settings
  • qibuid install, qibuid deploy: add --no-packages. This makes it possible to install or deploy only the projects, ignoring the packages in the toolchain

  • qibuid package: fix using --release
  • Check top CMakeLists.txt file for correctness

qilinguist

  • Install .confintl files too

qipkg

  • qipkg make-package now checks the package for correctness first. You can use qipkg make-package --force to bypass the checks

qipy

  • qipy bootstrap : read requirements.txt to install dependencies inside the virtualenv.
  • qipy list: sort projects by name

qisrc

  • Parallelize qisrc sync. By default, use as many threads as the number of CPUs. You can use qisrc sync -j<n> to change the number of threads used.
  • Fix using qisrc create outside a worktree
  • qisrc create: fix crash when output dir is inside template path
  • qisrc status: add option -S/--short to display status only for dirty projects
  • qisrc list: fix specifying a pattern

  • qisys.archive: add support for symlinks in zips.

  • Fix bug where qitest working directory was set to an empty string in some corner cases

qitoolchain

  • qitoolchain remove: do not silently update build configurations

cmake

  • Minimal required version is now CMake 2.8.12. This means Ubuntu 12.04 is no longer supported, please upgrade to Ubuntu 14.04 or later
  • if qi_swig_wrap_python or qi_swig_wrap_java is used and swig is not found, trigger an error instead of a warning
  • start next development
  • Don’t create test helpers if QI_WITH_TESTS is OFF
  • cmake: find modules in qibuild/cmake/modules after the ones in the toolchain packages
  • qi_stage_bin: create install rule for -config.cmake file
