2# Config.in.legacy - support for backward compatibility
3#
Thomas De Schampheleiref8c56f52013-09-02 22:07:50 +02004# When an existing Config.in symbol is removed, it should be added again in
5# this file, and take appropriate action to approximate backward compatibility.
6# This will make the transition for the user more convenient.
Arnout Vandecappelle (Essensium/Mind)ebcfa982012-11-12 10:08:28 +00007#
8# When adding legacy symbols to this file, add them to the front. The oldest
9# symbols will be removed again after about two years.
10#
11# The symbol should be copied as-is from the place where it was previously
12# defined, but the help text should be removed or replaced with something that
13# explains how to fix it.
Thomas De Schampheleiref8c56f52013-09-02 22:07:50 +020014#
15# For bool options, the old symbol should select BR2_LEGACY, so that the user
16# is informed at build-time about selected legacy options.
17# If there is an equivalent (set of) new symbols, these should be select'ed by
18# the old symbol for backwards compatibility.
19#
20# For string options, it is not possible to directly select another symbol. In
21# this case, a hidden wrap bool option has to be added, that defaults to y if
22# the old string is not set at its default value. The wrap symbol should select
23# BR2_LEGACY.
24# If the original symbol has been renamed, the new symbol should use the value
25# of the old symbol as default. This requires a change outside of
26# Config.in.legacy, and this should be clearly marked as such below, so that
27# removal of legacy options also include the removal of these external
28# references.
29#
30# [Example: renaming a string option from FOO to BAR]
31# original symbol:
32# config BR2_FOO_STRING
33# string "Some foo string"
34#
35# becomes:
36# config BR2_BAR_STRING
37# string "Some bar string"
38# default BR2_FOO_STRING if BR2_FOO_STRING != "" # legacy
39#
40# and in Config.in.legacy:
41# config BR2_FOO_STRING
42# string "The foo string has been renamed"
43# help
44# <suitable help text>
45#
46# config BR2_FOO_STRING_WRAP
47# bool
48# default y if BR2_FOO_STRING != ""
49# select BR2_LEGACY

51# # Note: BR2_FOO_STRING is still referenced from package/foo/Config.in

179 there is no replacement: Qt will enable JIT at compile time
