Changelog

[0.2.10] - 2026-03-16

Added:

• build.steps for pre-build generators (e.g., moc/uic/rcc)
• build.pkg_config for pkg-config-driven cflags/ldflags resolution
• [toolchain] support for uic, moc, rcc
• Step command variables ({uic}, {moc}, {rcc}, {cflags}, {stem}, {in}, {out})
• {profile} placeholder support for dependency paths

[0.2.9] - 2026-03-14

Added:

• Header dependency tracking for fine-grained incremental builds (rebuilds when #include files change)
• Complete internal rewrite of the builder module: merged duplicate compilation backends

Changed:

• cflags and default_flags no longer incorrectly leak to the linker stage in GCC/Clang
• Reduced builder codebase size by over 20% while increasing reliability
• Greatly expanded test suite with 34 new tests covering configuration, CLI errors, and path operations

[0.2.8] - 2026-03-06

Added:

• Workspace support ([workspace] with deps ordering)
• clean --all for workspace members Changed:
• Project root discovery for build/run/clean (searches parent dirs)
• Workspace paths are excluded from root source scan
• Build output now uses a Cargo-style Compiling <name> v<version> line
• Build time now reports total time for the whole build stage (workspace included)
• Cache hits are silent (no compile line when nothing is rebuilt)
• Safer build cache: fingerprints include headers and resolved library files

Added:

• Toolchain overrides via [toolchain] and env (DCR_*)
• ASM .S preprocessing via GCC/Clang (-x assembler-with-cpp)
