CHANGES: - When a rule's action is interrupted, delete any leftover directory targets. This is consistent with how we treat file targets. (@rgrinberg, 7564) - Fix plugin loading with findlib. The functionality was broken in 3.7.0. (ocaml/dune#7556, @anmonteiro) - Introduce a `public_headers` field on libraries. This field is like `install_c_headers`, but it allows to choose the extension and choose the paths for the installed headers. (ocaml/dune#7512, @rgrinberg) - Load the host context `findlib.conf` when cross-compiling (ocaml/dune#7428, fixes ocaml/dune#1701, @rgrinberg, @anmonteiro) - Resolve `ppx_runtime_libraries` in the target context when cross compiling (ocaml/dune#7450, fixes ocaml/dune#2794, @anmonteiro) - Use `$PKG_CONFIG`, when set, to find the `pkg-config` binary (ocaml/dune#7469, fixes ocaml/dune#2572, @anmonteiro) - Preliminary support for Coq compiled intefaces (`.vos` files) enabled via `(mode vos)` in `coq.theory` stanzas. This can be used in combination with `dune coq top` to obtain fast re-building of dependencies (with no checking of proofs) prior to stepping into a file. (ocaml/dune#7406, @rlepigre) - Fix dune crashing on MacOS in watch mode whenever `$PATH` contains `$PWD` (ocaml/dune#7441, fixes ocaml/dune#6907, @rgrinberg) - Fix `dune install` when cross compiling (ocaml/dune#7410, fixes ocaml/dune#6191, @anmonteiro, @rizo) - Find `pps` dependencies in the host context when cross-compiling, (ocaml/dune#7410, fixes ocaml/dune#4156, @anmonteiro) - Dune in watch mode no longer builds concurrent rules in serial (ocaml/dune#7395 @rgrinberg, @jchavarri) - `dune coq top` now correctly respects the project root when called from a subdirectory. However, absolute filenames passed to `dune coq top` are no longer supported (due to being buggy) (ocaml/dune#7357, fixes ocaml/dune#7344, @rlepigre and @Alizter) - Added a `--no-build` option to `dune coq top` for avoiding rebuilds (ocaml/dune#7380, fixes ocaml/dune#7355, @Alizter) - RPC: Ignore SIGPIPE when clients suddenly disconnect (ocaml/dune#7299, ocaml/dune#7319, fixes ocaml/dune#6879, @rgrinberg) - Always clean up the UI on exit. (ocaml/dune#7271, fixes ocaml/dune#7142 @rgrinberg) - Bootstrap: remove reliance on shell. Previously, we'd use the shell to get the number of processors. (ocaml/dune#7274, @rgrinberg) - Bootstrap: correctly detect the number of processors by allowing `nproc` to be looked up in `$PATH` (ocaml/dune#7272, @Alizter) - Speed up file copying on macos by using `clonefile` when available (@rgrinberg, ocaml/dune#7210) - Adds support for loading plugins in toplevels (ocaml/dune#6082, fixes ocaml/dune#6081, @ivg, @richardlford) - Support commands that output 8-bit and 24-bit colors in the terminal (ocaml/dune#7188, @Alizter) - Speed up rule generation for libraries and executables with many modules (ocaml/dune#7187, @jchavarri) - Add `--watch-exclusions` to Dune build options (ocaml/dune#7216, @jonahbeckford) - Do not re-render UI on every frame if the UI doesn't change (ocaml/dune#7186, fix ocaml/dune#7184, @rgrinberg) - Make coq_db creation in scope lazy (@ejgallego, ocaml/dune#7133) - Non-user proccesses such as version control or config checking are now run silently. (ocaml/dune#6994, fixes ocaml/dune#4066, @Alizter) - Add the `--display-separate-messages` flag to separate the error messages produced by commands with a blank line. (ocaml/dune#6823, fixes ocaml/dune#6158, @esope) - Accept the Ordered Set Language for the `modes` field in `library` stanzas (ocaml/dune#6611, @anmonteiro). - dune install now respects --display quiet mode (ocaml/dune#7116, fixes ocaml/dune#4573, fixes ocaml/dune#7106, @Alizter) - Stub shared libraries (dllXXX_stubs.so) in Dune-installed libraries could not be used as dependencies of libraries in the workspace (eg when compiling to bytecode and/or Javascript). This is now fixed. (ocaml/dune#7151, @nojb) - Allow the main module of a library with `(stdlib ...)` to depend on other libraries (ocaml/dune#7154, @anmonteiro). - Bytecode executables built for JSOO are linked with `-noautolink` and no longer depend on the shared stubs of their dependent libraries (ocaml/dune#7156, @nojb) - Added a new user action `(concurrent )` which is like `(progn )` but runs the actions concurrently. (ocaml/dune#6933, @Alizter) - Allow `(stdlib ...)` to be used with `(wrapped false)` in library stanzas (ocaml/dune#7139, @anmonteiro). - Allow parallel execution of inline tests partitions (ocaml/dune#7012, @hhugo) - Support `(link_flags ...)` in `(cinaps ...)` stanza. (ocaml/dune#7423, fixes ocaml/dune#7416, @nojb) - Allow `(package ...)` in any position within `(rule ...)` stanza (ocaml/dune#7445, @Leonidas-from-XIV) - Always include `opam` files in the generated `.install` file. Previously, it would not be included whenever `(generate_opam_files true)` was set and the `.install` file wasn't yet generated. (ocaml/dune#7547, @rgrinberg)

CHANGES: - Fix string quoting in the json file written by `--trace-file` (ocaml/dune#7773, @rleshchinskiy) - Read `pkg-config` arguments from the `PKG_CONFIG_ARGN` environment variable (ocaml/dune#1492, ocaml/dune#7734, @anmonteiro) - Correctly set `MANPATH` in `dune exec`. Previously, we would use the `bin/` directory of the context. (ocaml/dune#7655, @rgrinberg) - Allow overriding the `ocaml` binary with findlib configuration (ocaml/dune#7648, @rgrinberg) - merlin: ignore instrumentation settings for preprocessing.

(ocaml/dune#7608, fixes ocaml/dune#7026, @Alizter) - Preliminary support for Coq compiled intefaces (`.vos` files) enabled via `(mode vos)` in `coq.theory` stanzas.

This allows for composition with installed theories (not necessarily installed with Dune).

(ocaml/dune#7666, @nojb) - Coq language versions less 0.8 are deprecated, and will be removed in an upcoming Dune version. All users are required to migrate to `(coq lang 0.8)` which provides the right semantics for theories that have been globally installed, such as those coming from opam (@ejgallego, @Alizter) - Bump minimum version of the dune language for the melange syntax extension from 3.7 to 3.8 (ocaml/dune#7665, @jchavarri)

In ocaml/ocaml#11539, @mimoo reports the following error message they (understandably) found hard to read
One reason the user is confused is that this is not one error, but in fact three error messages concatenated together, and they had not realized this. (Each error message individually is tough but still easier to grok.)
Feature request: when Dune reports several messages, include a blank line between each message, so that users can visually notice that they are separate error messages.
(In terminal output there typically are colors that help highlight the
Error:part, but maybe this was not enough for the user, and maybe they are looking at CI logs or another output that does not include the colors/highlighting.)The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
