distcc-0.7 "Pipeline Authority" 2002-08-05 FEATURES: * Can now either use fifos for feeding the compiler or not. This can be controlled by --no-fifo to the server. By default, it tries a fifo and falls back to using regular temporarily files if that fails, as it will on Cygwin or an NFS-mounted /tmp. (Martin Pool) * --log-stderr option, intended mainly for debugging or testing. (Martin Pool) * DISTCC_HOSTS can now specify non-default port numbers using "host:port" syntax. (Martin Pool) DOCUMENTATION: * Built documentation (HTML, PS, PDF, Info) is now shipped in the distributed tarball, so that you can more easily install it on a machine lacking the Linuxdoc SGML tools. You still need them to modify and rebuild the documentation, of course. (Martin Pool) BUG FIXES: * Log pid even if running with --no-fork. Remove pid file on exit. (Martin Pool) PORTABILITY: * Try fcntl locks in addition to lockf and flock; apparently this helps portability to Cygwin. (Martin Pool, Marco Alanen) * Port to Cygwin. (Martin Pool, Marco Alanen) * Partial port to Solaris. (Dimitri PAPADOPOULOS-ORFANOS, Martin Pool) TESTABILITY: * Further internal improvements to test suite. (Martin Pool) * Test suite should now run whether or not there is a daemon listening on localhost, because it uses a non-standard port for testing. (Martin Pool)
