1.51.0 (28-Jul-2022)
Feature: Update system package manager db right before install, instead before check #11716
Feature: Do the package manager update just in mode install and ignore if mode is check. #11712 . Docs here
Feature: The AutotoolsToolchain attributes .cxxflags, .cflags, .ldflags and .defines can be read at any moment, now is not needed to call .environment() to get them calculated.

self.folders.subproject
forlayout()
to be able to define layouts that goes up to the parent or siblings folders, together with theself.folders.root = ".."
. #11556 . Docs hereFeature: Adding new

Bugfix: The AutotoolsToolchain now clears None values from the attributes .cxxflags, .cflags, .ldflags and .defines. #11678 . Docs here
Bugfix: The CMakePresets.json file contained invalid paths (mixing / and `) for Windows that caused issues when using `Visual Studio. #11652

1.50.1 (28-Jul-2022)
Bugfix: Port #11614. CMakeToolchain avoid setting CMAKE_INSTALL_XXX variables if the values are not defined. #11719
1.50.0 (29-Jun-2022)
Feature:
VirtualBuildEnv
andVirtualRunEnv
always generate files, even if empty. #11536Feature: Improve dependency-cycle error to show the cycle. #11519
Feature: Aggregate transitive components information in the same package for XcodeDeps. #11507 . Docs here
Feature: map armv8 arch to ARM64 MSBuild platform in MSBuildDeps generator. #11505
Feature: Added CMakeToolchain(self).cache_variables to declare cache_variables in the configurePresets in the CMakePresets.json file. Conan reads them to call cmake with -D when using the CMake(self) build helper. These cache variables doesn’t support multi-configuration generators. #11503 . Docs here
Feature: Created self.info.clear() as an alias of self.info.header_only() that will disappear in Conan 2.0. #11478 . Docs here
Feature: Allow options having [“ANY”] as a list like Conan 2.X. #11449 . Docs here

Feature: Add relative path support to Git SCM tool. #11407
Feature: Changed cmake_layout with a more natural and intuitive folders.build and folders.generators. Also changed the CMakePresets.json preset names. #11391 . Docs here
Fix: When using the layout() (as opt-in of some Conan 2.0 features) the default includedirs of the declared components is now [“include”] the default of the libdirs is [“lib”] and the default for the bindirs is [“bin”]. Previously, the components always had empty fields. Also the default of cpp_info.resdirs is now empty. #11471 . Docs here
Fix: The CMakeToolchain will fail if settings.build_type is specified in the ‘tools.cmake.cmake_layout:build_folder’ conf because the build_type is automatically managed by the CMakeToolchain and CMakeDeps generators by default. #11470 . Docs here
Fix: When using the new layout() feature of Conan 2.0, change the default cpp_info.frameworkdirs = [“Frameworks”] to cpp_info.frameworkdirs = [], because it is more common to not have packaged Apple frameworks and declaring a missing folder can cause issues with the new toolchains. #11455 . Docs here
Fix: The “include” paths list in a CMakeUserPresets.json, when performing a new conan install, are now checked, and in case some of them is a missing path (deleted directory), it is cleaned from the list. #11414
Fix: Avoid issues in
VirtualRunEnv
for undefined variables whenset -e
is defined. #11361Bugfix: Fix logic in the generation of CMakeUserPresets.json - Conan will only generate the file if it did not previously exist, and will modify an existing one if the file was previously generated by conan. Existing CMakeUserPresets.json will be left untouched otherwise. #11452 . Docs here
Bugfix: Fix crash in pylint plugin with pylint >= 2.14.0. #11445
Bugfix: Allow using
PkgConfigDeps
foreditable
packages, not raising an error causepackage_folder
is None. #11440Bugfix: The CMakePresets.json file, when performing several conan install commands, ended-up with several entries of duplicated “buildPresets” if used with a multi-configuration cmake generator. #11414
Bugfix: PkgConfigDeps creates *.pc files for test_requires. #11390
1.49.0 (02-Jun-2022)
Feature: Add install_substitutes to system package manager tools to be able to install sets of packages that are equivalent with different names for different distros. #11367 . Docs here
Feature: Do not automatically fix the shared libraries to add the rpath in Apple and add an external tool tools.apple.fix_apple_shared_install_name to do it optionally in recipes for packages that do not set the correct LC_ID_DYLIB. #11365 . Docs here
Feature: Allow pyyaml 6.0 dependency. #11363
Feature: Removed Python 2.7 support, as a result of an unsolvable security vulnerability in pyjwt. #11357 . Docs here

of theconan.tool.files.copy
function and now, any symlink file pointing to a folder will be treated as a regular file. #11330 . Docs hereFeature: Tools can_run validates if it is possible to run a and application build for a non-native architecture. #11321 . Docs here
Feature: Add CMAKE_SYSROOT support for CMakeToolchain. #11317 . Docs here
Feature: Add –sysroot support for AutotoolsToolchain and remove support for cpp_info.sysroot in AutotoolsDeps. #11317 . Docs here
Feature: Improved cmake_layout and CMakePresets.json feature so you can manage different configurations using the same CMakeUserPresets.json not only for multi-config (Debug/Release) but for any set of settings specified in a new conf tools.cmake.cmake_layout:build_folder_vars that accepts a list of settings to use. e.g tools.cmake.cmake_layout:build_folder_vars=[“settings.compiler”, “options.shared”] #11308 . Docs here
Feature: Adds GCC 9.4 in the list of compilers supported in the settings file. #11296

Feature: Do not recommend to set PKG_CONFIG_PATH in markdown generator any more as it is already set by the AutotoolsToolchain. #11120
Feature: The cmake_layout declares folders.generators = “build/generators” that is common for different configurations, enabling CMakePresets.json to support different configurePresets and buildPresets for single-config and multi-config generators. #11117 . Docs here
Feature: The CMakeToolchain generator will create (if missing) a CMakeUserPresets.json if the CMakeLists.txt file is found in the root folder of the project. That file will include automatically the CMakePresets.json file contained at build/generators folder to allow CMake and IDEs to locate automatically the presets generated by Conan. #11117 . Docs here
Feature: The CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE is not adjusted in the conan_toolchain.cmake anymore, the configuration is moved to the CMakePresets.json preparing Conan to support multiple “single-config” configurations in one CMakePresets.json file #11112 . Docs here
Feature: The CMakePresets.json (file generated when specified the CMakeToolchain generator) is appended with a new buildPresets after a conan install with a different build_type when using a multiconfiguration generator like Visual Studio. #11103 . Docs here

Docs here
Fix: Ensure correct order for libraries in AutotoolsDeps. #11054
Fix: Escape quotes in XCodeDeps generator. #11039

Feature: Skip build helper test and using [conf]. #9218 . Docs here
Feature: Implement a new
requires = "pkg/(alias)"
syntax to be able to dissambiguate alias requirements and resolve them earlier in the flow, solving some limitations of the previous alias definition.

Bugfix: Disabled remotes shouldn’t fail if not used at all #9184
BugFix:
ConanFileDependencies.build["dep"]
was retrieving thehost
dependency if existing, or failing otherwise, because the default requires was hardcoded to fetch the host (build=False) dependency. #9148 . Docs hereBugfix: Now, conan profile {show, update, get, remove} is working fine with new experimental [conf] section. #9114

basic info. #9053Fix: Do not fail in
CMakeDeps
when there arebuild_requires
with same name as host requires, unlessbuild_context_activated
is enabled for those and a different suffix has not been defined. #9046Fix: When using the new self.folders.source (at layout(self) method) the sources (from export, export_sources and scm) are copied to the base source folder and not to the self.folders.source that is intended to describe where the sources are after fetching them. #9043 . Docs here
BugFix: Do not quote all values and allow integer and macro referencing in
MSBuildToolchain.preprocessor_definitions
#9056Bugfix: The new generators like CMakeDeps and CMakeToolchain`write the generated files defaulting to the `install folder if no self.folders.generators is specified in the layout() method. #9050

method, that was superseded bypackage_id()
Note
Breaking changes
CMAKE_LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY definition has been introduced in
conan_basic_setup()
, it will send shared libraries .so to thelib
folder in Linux systems. Right now it was undefined.Profile search logic has slightly changed. For
-pr=myprofile
, such profile will be searched both in the default folder and in the local one if not existing. Use-pr=./myprofile
to force local search only.The conan copy command has been fixed. To copy all binaries, it is necessary to explicit --all, as other commands do.
The only valid use of CMake helper is
CMake(self)
syntax.If using
conan_info()
, replace it withpackage_id()
.Removed environment variable
CONAN_CMAKE_TOOLSET
, now the toolset can be specified as a subsetting of Visual Studio compiler or specified in the build helpers.

Note
Breaking changes
This is an important release towards stabilizing conan and moving out of beta. Some breaking changes have been done, but mostly to command line arguments, so they should be easy to fix. Package recipes or existing packages shouldn’t break. Please update, it is very important to ease the transition of future stable releases. Do not hesitate to ask questions, or for help if you need it. This is a possibly not complete list of things to take into account:
The command conan install doesn’t accept
cwd
anymore, to change the directory where the generator files are written, use the --install-folder parameter.The command conan install doesn’t accept --all anymore. Use conan download <ref> instead.
The command conan build now requires the path to the
conanfile.py
(optional before)The command conan package not longer re-package a package in the local cache, now it only operates in a user local folder. The recommended way to re-package a package is using conan build and then conan export-pkg.
Removed conan package_files in favor of a new command conan export-pkg. It requires a local recipe with a
package()
method.The command conan source no longer operates in the local cache. now it only operates in a user local folder. If you used conan source with a reference to workaround the concurrency, now it natively supported, you can remove the command call and trust concurrent install processes.
The command conan imports doesn’t accept
-d, --dest
anymore, use --imports-folder parameter instead.If you specify a profile in a conan command, like conan create or conan install the base profile ~/.conan/profiles/default won’t be applied. Use explicit
include
to keep the old behavior.

0.19.3 (27-February-2017)
Fix: backward compatibility for new environment variables. New features to be introduced in 0.20 will produce that
conaninfo.txt
will not be correctly parsed, and then package would be “missing”. This will happen for packages created with 0.20, and consumed with older than 0.19.3

Upgrade: If you were using the short_paths
feature in Windows for packages with long paths, please
reset your local cache. You could manually remove packages or just run conan remove "*"
Feature: New build=outdated`` functionality, that allows to build the binary packages for those dependencies whose recipe has been changed, or if the binary is not existing. Each binary package stores a hash of the recipe to know if they have to be regenerated (are outdated). This information is also provided in the conan search <ref>` command. Useful for package creators and CI.
Feature: Extended the
short_paths
feature for Windows path limit to thepackage
folder, so package with very long paths, typically in headers in nested folder hierarchies are supported.Feature: New
tool.build_sln_command()
helper tobuild()
Microsoft Visual Studio solution (.sln) projectsFeature: Extended the
source
andpackage
command, so together withbuild
they can be fully executed in a user folder, as a convenience for package creation and testing.Feature: Extending the scope of
tools.pythonpath
to work in local commands tooImproved the parsing of
profiles
and better error messagesNot adding
-s
compiler flag for clang, as it doesn’t use it.Automatic generation of conanenv.txt in local cache, warnings if using local commands and no
conanbuildinfo.txt
and no conanenv.txt are present to cache the information form installFix: Fixed bug when using empty initial requirements (
requires = ""
)Fix: Added
glob
hidden import to pyinstallerFix: Fixed minor bugs with
short_paths
as local search not listing packagesFix: Fixed problem with virtual envs in Windows with paths separator (using / instead of )
Fix: Fixed parsing of conanbuildinfo.txt, so the root folder for each dependency is available in local commands too
Fix: Fixed bug in test_package with the test project using the
requirements()
method.
0.14.1 (20-October-2016)
Fixed bug with short_paths feature in windows.
Improved error messages for non-valid profile test files.
Remove downloaded tgz package files from remotes after decompress them.
Fixes bug with install –all and short_paths
0.14.0 (20-October-2016)
Feature: Added profiles, as user predefined settings and environment variables (as CC and CXX for compiler paths). They are stored in files in the conan cache, so they can be easily edited, added, and shared. Use them with conan install --profile=name
Feature:
short_paths
feature for Windows now also handle long paths for the final package, in case that a user library has a very long final name, with nested subfolders.Feature: Added
tools.cpu_count()
as a helper to retrieve the number of cores, so it can be used in concurrent buildsFeature: Detects cycles in the dependency graph, and raise error instead of exhausting recursion limits
Feature: Conan learned the werror`` option that will raise error and stop installation under some cases treated as warnings otherwise: Duplicated dependencies, or dependencies conflicts
Feature: New
env
generator that generates a text file with the environment variables defined by dependencies, so it can be stored. Such file is parsed by conan build to be able to use such environment variables forself.deps_env_info
too, in the same way it uses thetxt
generator to load variables forself.deps_cpp_info
.Fix: Do not print progress bars when output is a file
Fix: Improved the local conan search, using options too in the query conan search -q option=value
Fix: Boto dependency updated to 2.43.0 (necessary for ArchLinux)
Fix: Simplified the conan package command, removing unused and confusing options, and more informative messages about errors and utility of this command.
Fix: More fixes and improvements on
ConfigureEnvironment
, mainly for WindowsFix: Conan now does not generate a
conanbuildinfo.txt
file when doing conan install <PkgRef>.Bug fix: Files of a package recipe are “touched” to update their timestamps to current time when retrieved, otherwise some build systems as Ninja can have problems with them.
Bug fix:
qmake
generator now uses quotes to handle paths with spacesBug fix: Fixed
OSInfo
to return the short distro name instead of the long one.Bug fix: fixed transitivity of
private
dependencies
0.13.3 (13-October-2016)
This minor solves some problems with ConfigureEnvironment
, mainly for Windows, but also fixes
other things:
Fixed concatenation problems in Windows for several environment variables. Fixed problems with path with spaces
A batch file is created in Windows to be called, as
if defined
structures doesn’t seem to work in the command line.The
vcvars_command
fromtools
now checks the Visual Studio environment variable, if it is already set, it will check it with the current project settings, throwing an error if not matching, returning an empty command if matches.Added a
compile_flags
property toConfigureEnvironment
, to be passed in the command line to the compiler, but not as environment variablesAdded
defines
to environment for nix systems, it was not being handled beforeAdded new tests, compiling simple projects and diamond dependencies with cmake, cl (msvc), gcc (gcc in linux, mingw in win) and clang (OSX), for a better coverage of the
ConfigureEnvironment
functionality.Fixed wrong
CPP_INCLUDE_PATH
, it is nowCPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH
0.13.0 (03-October-2016)
IMPORTANT UPGRADE ISSUE: There was a small error in the computation of binary packages IDs, that has been addressed by conan 0.13. It affects to third level (and higher) binary packages, i.e. A and B in A->B->C->D, which binaries must be regenerated for the new hashes. If you don’t plan to provide support for older conan releases (<=0.12), which would be reasonable, you should remove all binaries first (conan remove -p, works both locally and remotely), then re-build your binaries.
Features:
Streaming from/to disk for all uploads/downloads. Previously, this was done for memory, but conan started to have issues for huge packages (>many hundreds MBs), that sometimes could be alleviated using Python 64 bits distros. This issues should be alleviated now
New security system that allows capturing and checking the package recipes and binaries manifests into user folders (project or any other folder). That ensures that packages cannot be replaced, hacked, forged, changed or wrongly edited, either locally or in any remote server, without notice.
Possible to handle and reuse python code in recipes. Actually, conan can be used as a package manager for python, by adding the package path to
env_info.PYTHONPATH
. Useful if you want to reuse common python code between different package recipes.Avoiding re-compress the tgz for packages after uploads if it didn’t change.
New command conan source that executes the
source()
method of a given conanfile. Very useful for CI, if desired to run in parallel the construction of different binaries.New propagation of
cpp_info
, so it now allows for capturing binary packages libraries with newcollect_libs()
helper, and access to created binaries to compute thepackage_info()
in general.Command test_package now allows the update`` option, to automatically update dependencies.
Added new architectures for
ppc64le
and detection forAArch64
New methods for defining requires effect over binary packages ID (hash) in
conan_info()
Many bugs fixes: error in
tools.download
with python 3, restore correct prompt in virtualenvs, bug if removing an option inconfig_options()
, setup.py bug…
This release has contributions from @tru, @raulbocanegra, @tivek, @mathieu, and the feedback of many other conan users, thanks very much to all of them!
0.12.0 (13-September-2016)
Major changes to search api and commands. Decoupled the search of package recipes, from the search of binary packages.
Fixed bug that didn’t allow to
export
orupload
packages with settings restrictions if the restrictions didn’t match the host settingsAllowing disabling color output with
CONAN_COLOR_DISPLAY=0
environment variable, or to configure color schema for light console backgrounds withCONAN_COLOR_DARK=1
environment variableImports can use absolute paths, and files copied from local conan cache to those paths will not be removed when conan install. Can be used as a way to install machine-wise things (outside conan local cache)
More robust handling of failing transfers (network disconnect), and inconsistent status after such
Large internal refactor for storage managers. Improved implementations and decoupling between server and client
Fixed slow conan remove for caches with many packages due to slow deletion of empty folders
Always allowing explicit options scopes,
- o Package:option=value
as well as the implicit-o option=value
for currentPackage
, for consistencyFixed some bugs in client-server auth process.
Allow to extract
.tar
files intools.unzip()
Some helpers for
conan_info()
, asself.info.requires.clear()
and removal of settings and options
0.11.1 (31-August-2016)
New error reporting for failures in conanfiles, including line number and offending line, much easier for package creators
Removed message requesting to create an account in conan.io for other remotes
Removed localhost:9300 remote that was added by default mostly for demo purposes. Clarified in docs.
Fixed usernames case-sensitivity in conan_server, due to ConfigParser it was forcing lowercase
Handling unicode characters in remote responses, fixed crash
Added new compilers gcc 6.2, clang 8.0 to the default
settings.yml
Bumped cryptography, boto and other conan dependencies, mostly for ArchLinux compatibility and new OSX security changes
0.11.0 (3-August-2016)
New solution for the path length limit in Windows, more robust and complete. Package conanfile.py just have to declare an attribute
short_paths=True
and everything will be managed. The old approach is deprecated and totally removed, so no shorts_paths.conf file is necessary. It should fix also the issues with uploads/retrievals.New
virtualenv
generator that generatesactivate
anddeactivate
scripts that set environment variables in the current shell. It is very useful, for example to install tools (like CMake, MinGW) with conan packages, so multiple versions can be installed in the same machine, and switch between them just by activating such virtual environments. Packages for MinGW and CMake are already available as a demoConfigureEnvironment takes into account environment variables, defined in packages in new
env_info
, which is similar tocpp_info
but for environment information (like paths).New per-package
build_policy
, which can be set toalways
ormissing
, so it is not necessary to create packages or specify the build`` parameter in command line. Useful for example in header only libraries or to create packages that always get the latest code from a branch in a github repository.Command conan test_package` now executes by default a conan export with smarter package reference deduction. It is introduced as opt-out behavior.
Conan :command`export` command avoids copying test_package/build temporary files in case of
export=*
Now,
package_info()
allows absolute paths inincludedir
,libdirs
andbindirs
, so wrapper packages can be defined that use system or manually installed libraries.LDFLAGS in
ConfigureEnvironment
management of OSX frameworks.Options allow the
ANY
value, so such option would accept any value. For example a commit of a git repository, useful to create packages that can build any specific commit of a git repo.Added gcc 5.4 to the default settings, as well as MinGW options (Exceptions, threads…)
Command conan info learned a new option to output the packages from a project dependency tree that should be rebuilt in case of a modification of a certain package. It outputs a machine readable ordered list of packages to be built in that order. Useful for CI systems.
Better management of incomplete, dirty or failed
source
directories (e.g. in case of a user interrupting with Ctrl+C a git clone inside thesource()
method.Added tools for easier detection of different OS versions and distributions, as well as command wrappers to install system packages (apt, yum). They use
sudo
via a new environment variable CONAN_SYSREQUIRES_SUDO, so using sudo is opt-in/out, for users with different sudo needs. Useful forsystem_requirements()
Deprecated the
config()
method (still works, for backwards compatibility), but has been replaced by aconfig_options()
to modify options based on settings, and aconfigure()
method for most use cases. This removes a nasty behavior of having theconfig()
method called twice with side effects.Now, running a conan install MyLib/0.1@user/channel to directly install packages without any consuming project, is also able to generate files with the
-g
option. Useful for installing tool packages (MinGW, CMake) and generatevirtualenvs
.Many small fixes and improvements: detect compiler bug in Py3, search was crashing for remotes, conan new failed if the package name had a dash, etc.
Improved some internal duplications of code, refactored many tests.
This has been a big release. Practically 100% of the released features are thanks to active users feedback and contributions. Thanks very much again to all of them!
0.10.0 (29-June-2016)
conan new command, that creates conan package conanfile.py templates, with a test_package package test (-t option), also for header only packages (-i option)
Definition of scopes. There is a default dev scope for the user project, but any other scope (test, profile…) can be defined and used in packages. They can be used to fire extra processes (as running tests), but they do not affect the package binaries, and are not included in the package IDs (hash).
Definition of dev_requires. Those are requirements that are only retrieved when the package is in dev scope, otherwise they are not. They do not affect the binary packages. Typical use cases would be test libraries or build scripts.
Allow shorter paths for specific packages, which can be necessary to build packages with very long path names (e.g. Qt) in Windows.
Support for bzip2 and gzip decompression in
tools
Added
package_folder
attribute to conanfile, so thepackage()
method can for example callcmake install
to create the package.Added
CONAN_CMAKE_GENERATOR
environment variable that allows to override theCMake
default generator. That can be useful to build with Ninja instead of the default Unix MakefilesImproved
ConfigureEnvironment
with include paths in CFLAGS and CPPFLAGS, and fixed bug.New conan user --clean option, to completely remove all user data for all remotes.
Allowed to raise
Exceptions
inconfig()
method, so it is easier for package creators to raise under non-supported configurationsFixed many small bugs and other small improvements
As always, thanks very much to all contributors and users providing feedback.
0.9.2 (11-May-2016)
Fixed download bug that made it specially slow to download, even crash. Thanks to github @melmdk for fixing it.
Fixed cmake check of CLang, it was being skipped
Improved performance. Check for updates has been removed from install, made it opt-in in conan info command, as it was very slow, seriously affecting performance of large projects.
Improved internal representation of graph, also improves performance for large projects.
Fixed bug in conan install --update.
0.9 (3-May-2016)
Python 3 “experimental” support. Now the main conan codebase is Python 2 and 3 compatible. Python 2 still the reference platform, Python 3 stable support in next releases.
Create and share your own custom generators for any build system or tool. With “generator packages”, you can write a generator just as any other package, upload it, modify and version it, etc. Require them by reference, as any other package, and pull it into your projects dynamically.
Premake4 initial experimental support via a generator package.
Very large re-write of the documentation. New “creating packages” sections with in-source and out-source explicit examples. Please read it! :)
Improved conan test. Renamed
test
to test_package both for the command and the folder, but backwards compatibility remains. Custom folder name also possible. Adapted test layout might require minor changes to your package test, automatic warnings added for your convenience.Upgraded pyinstaller to generate binary OS installers from 2.X to 3.1
conan search now has command line options:, less verbose, verbose, extra verbose
Added variable with full list of dependencies in conanbuildinfo.cmake
Several minor bugfixes (check github issues)
Improved conan user to manage user login to multiple remotes
0.8.4 (28-Mar-2016)
Fixed linker problems with the new apple-clang 7.3 due to libraries with no timestamp set.
Added apple-clang 7.3 to default settings
Fixed default libcxx for apple-clang in auto detection of base conan.conf
0.8 (15-Mar-2016)
New conan remote command to manage remotes. Redesigned remotes architecture, now allows to work with several remotes in a more consistent, powerful and “git-like” way. New remotes registry keeps track of the remote of every installed package, and this information is shown in conan info command too. Also, it keeps different user logins for different remotes, to improve support in corporate environments running in-house servers.
New update functionality. Now it is possible to conan install --update to update packages that became obsolete because new ones were uploaded to the corresponding remote. Conan commands as install and info show information about the status of the local packages compared with the remote ones. In this way, using latest versions during development is much more natural.
Added new compiler.libcxx setting in order to support the different c++ standard libraries. It can take libstdc++, libstdc++11 or libc++ values to take into account different standard libraries for modern gcc and clang compilers. It is also possible to remove not needed settings, like this one in pure C projects, with the new syntax:
del self.settings.compiler.libcxx
Conan virtual environment: Define a custom conan directory with CONAN_USER_HOME env variable, and have a per project or per workspace storage for your dependencies. So you can isolate your dependencies and even bundle them within your project, by just setting the CONAN_USER_HOME variable to your
<project>/deps
folder, for example. This also improves support for continuous integration CI systems, in which many builds from different users could be run in parallel.Better conanfile download method. More stable and now checks (opt-out) the ssl certificates.
Lots of improvements: Increased library name length limit, Improved and cleaner output messages.
Fixed several minor bugs: removing empty folders, case sensitive exports, arm settings detection.
Introduced the concept of “package recipe” that refers to conanfile.py and exported files.
Improved settings display in web, with new “copy install command to clipboard” to assist in installing packages discovered in web.
The macOS installer, problematic with latest macOS releases, has been deprecated in favor of homebrew and pip install procedures.
0.7 (5-Feb-2016)
Custom conanfile names are allowed for developing. With file`` option you can define the file you want to use, allowing for
.conaninfo.txt
or having multipleconanfile_dev.py
,conanfile_test.py
besides the standardconanfile.py
which is used for sharing the package. Inheritance is allowed, e.g.conanfile_dev.py
might extend/inherit fromconanfile.py
.New conan copy command that can be used to copy/rename packages, promote them between channels, forking other users packages.
New all`` and package`` options for conan install that allows to download one, several, or all package configurations for a given reference.
Added
patch()
tool to easily patch sources if necessary.New qmake and qbs generators
Upload of conanfile exported files is also tgz’d, allowing fast upload/downloads of full sources if desired, avoiding retrieval of sources from externals sources.
conan info command improved showing info of current project too
Output of
run()
can be redirected to buffer string for processing, or even removed.Added proxy configuration to conan.conf for users behinds proxies.
Large improvements in commands output, prefixed with package reference, and much clear.
Updated settings for more versions of gcc and new arm architectures
Treat dependencies includes as SYSTEM in cmake, so no warnings are raised
Deleting source folder after conan export so no manual removal is needed
Normalizing to CRLF generated user files in Win
Better detection and checks for compilers as VS, apple-clang
Fixed CMAKE_SHARED_LINKER_FLAGS typo in cmake files
Large internal refactor in generators
0.6 (11-Jan-2016)
New cmake variables in cmake generator to make FindPackage work better thanks to the underlaying FindLibrary. Now many FindXXX.cmake work “as-is” and the package creator does not have to create a custom override, and consumers can use packages transparently with the originals FindXXX.cmakes
New “conan info” command that shows the full dependency graph and details (license, author, url, dependants, dependencies) for each dependency.
New environment helper with a ConfigureEnvironment class, that is able to translate conan information to autotools configure environment definition
Relative importing from conanfiles now is possible. So if you have common functionality between different packages, you can reuse those python files by importing them from the conanfile.py. Note that export=”…” might be necessary, as packages as to be self-contained.
Added YouCompleteMe generator for vim auto-completion of dependencies.
New “conanfile_directory” property that points to the file in which the conanfile.py is located. This helps if using the conanfile.py “build” method to build your own project as a project, not a package, to be able to use any workflow, out-of-source builds, etc.
Many edits and improvements in help, docs, output messages for many commands.
All cmake syntax in modern lowercase
Fixed several minor bugs: gcc detection failure when gcc not installed, missing import, copying source->build failing when symlinks
0.5 (18-Dec-2015)
New cmake functionality allows package creators to provide cmake finders, so that package consumers can use their CMakeLists.txt with typical FindXXX.cmake files, without any change to them. CMake CONAN_CMAKE_MODULES_PATH added, so that package creators can provide any additional cmake scripts for consumers.
Now it is possible to generate out-of-source and multiple configuration installations for the same project, so you can switch between them without having to conan install again. Check the new workflows
New qmake generator (thanks @dragly)
Improved removal/deletion of folders with shutil.rmtree, so conan remove commands and other processes requiring deletion of folders do not fail due to permissions and require manual deletion. This is an improvement, especially in Win.
Created
pip
package, so conan can be installed via:pip install conan
Released
pyinstaller
code for the creation of binaries from conan python source code. Distros package creators can create packages for the conan apps easily from those binaries.Added md5, sha1, sha256 helpers in
tools
, so external downloads fromconanfile.py
filessource()
can be checked.Added latest gcc versions to default
settings.yml
Added CI support for conan development: travis-ci, appveyor
Improved human-readability for download progress, help messages.
Minor bug fixes
