sbtApiVersion and scalaApiVersion each calculates the API
version of release builds as well as milestones and RCs.
scalaBinaryVersion and sbtBinaryVersion are now aware of
scalaApiVersion and sbtApiVersion respectively.
For example, sbtBinaryVersion for "0.13.0-SNAPSHOT" now evaluates to
"0.13.0-SNAPSHOT" instead of "0.13".
Silencing boring warnings allows seeing the interesting ones. Here I've excluded
reflectiveCalls, since that's a useful warning.
However, silencing those warnings in *Eclipse* would require committing Eclipse
projects, something which *will* take extra effort; I verified that the warnings
disappeared from the output of compilation in SBT.
Let's consider compile/inc/src/main/scala/sbt/CompileSetup.scala.
There are multiple Output types, and according to Eclipse importing
xsbti.compile.Output within the package sbt does not work because the
import is shadowed by sbt.Output.
However, compilation proceeds just fine within SBT. Reproducing the
example however gives the same warning, if the files are in the same
project. The problem here is probably that the shadowing Output
is declared in the same package but in another project, and that seems
to give different results in Eclipse and SBT, but relying on
that looks fragile.
Reading the spec is inconclusive since it doesn't match with Scalac's
behavior — see
https://groups.google.com/d/topic/scala-internals/-Rquc2HBYLk/discussion .
ForkTests has the same behavior as CompileSetup.
The Project.setSbtFiles and addSbtFiles methods combined with the current sbt version
available from ComponentMangaer.version (suggestions for a better location are welcome),
should make it straightforward to load different .sbt files based on the sbt version.
Fixes#467.
Set autoAPIMappings := true to enable.
Then, set apiURL to the base URL of the API documentation for a project.
This will get stored in an extra attribute in the ivy.xml or as a property
a pom.xml.
When using managed dependencies that have set their apiURL, the -doc-external-doc
setting for scaladoc will be automatically configured. Note that this option
will only be available in Scala 2.10.1 and so enabling autoAPIMappings for
earlier versions will result in an error from scaladoc.
For unmanaged dependencies or dependencies without an automatic apiURL, add the
(File,URL) mapping to apiMappings. The File is the classpath entry and the URL
is the location of the API documentation.
The verbose-level logging is what usually contains relevant information for the user.
Persisting the debug logging slows down update noticeably and clutters the more useful
debug logging output from verbose.
