title: Dune 3.13.0 | ||
tags: [dune, platform] | ||
changelog: | | ||
### Added | ||
- Add command `dune cache clear` to completely delete all traces of the Dune | ||
cache. (#8975, @nojb) | ||
- Allow to disable Coq 0.8 deprecation warning (#9439, @ejgallego) | ||
- Allow `OCAMLFIND_TOOLCHAIN` to be set per context in the workspace file | ||
through the `env` stanza. (#9449, @rgrinberg) | ||
- Menhir: generate `.conflicts` file by default. Add new field to the | ||
`(menhir)` stanza to control the generation of this file: `(explain <blang | ||
expression>)`. Introduce `(menhir (flags ...) (explain ...))` field in the | ||
`(env)` stanza, delete `(menhir_flags)` field. All changes are guarded under | ||
a new version of the Menhir extension, 3.0. (#9512, @nojb) | ||
- Directory targets can now be cached. (#9535, @rleshchinskiy) | ||
- It is now possible to use special forms such as `(:include)` and variables | ||
`%{read-lines:}` in `(modules)` and similar fields. Note that the | ||
dependencies introduced in this way (i.e., the files being read) must live in a | ||
different directory than the stanza making use of them. (#9578, @nojb) | ||
- Remove warning 30 from default set for projects where `dune lang` is at least | ||
3.13 (#9568, @gasche) | ||
- Add `coqdoc_flags` field to `coq` field of `env` stanza, allowing the setting | ||
of workspace-wide defaults for `coqdoc_flags`. (#9280, fixes #9139, @Alizter) | ||
- ctypes: fix an error where `(ctypes)` with no `(function_description)` would | ||
cause an error trying refer to a nonexistent `_stubs.a` dependency (#9302, | ||
fix #9300, @emillon) | ||
### Changed | ||
- Check that package names in `(depends)` and related fields in `dune-project` | ||
are well-formed. (#9472, fixes #9270, @ElectreAAS) | ||
### Fixed | ||
- Do not ignore `(formatting ..)` settings in context or workspace files | ||
(#8447, @rgrinberg) | ||
- Fixed a bug where Dune was incorrectly parsing the output of coqdep when it | ||
was escaped, as is the case on Windows. (#9231, fixes #9218, @Alizter) | ||
- Copying mode for sandboxes will now follow symbolic links (#9282, @rgrinberg) | ||
- Forbid the empty `(binaries ..)` field in the `env` stanza in the workspace | ||
file unless language version is at least 3.2. (#9309, @rgrinberg) | ||
- [Coq] Fix bug in computation of flags when composed with boot theories. | ||
(#9347, fixes #7909, @ejgallego) | ||
- Fixed a bug where the `(select)` field of the `(libraries)` field of the | ||
`(test)` stanza wasn't working properly. (#9387, fixes #9365, @Alizter) | ||
- Fix handling of the `PATH` argument to `dune init proj NAME PATH`. An | ||
intermediate directory called `NAME` is no longer created if `PATH` is | ||
supplied, so `dune init proj my_project .` will now initialize a project in | ||
the current working directory. (#9447, fixes #9209, @shonfeder) | ||
- Experimental doc rules: Correctly handle the case when a package depends upon | ||
its own sublibraries (#9461, fixes #9456, @jonludlam) | ||
- Resolve various public binaries to their build location, rather than to where | ||
they're copied in the `_build/install` directory (#9496, fixes #7908, | ||
@rgrinberg). | ||
- Correctly ignore warning flags in vendored projects (#9515, @rgrinberg) | ||
- Use watch exclusions in watch mode on MacOS (#9643, fixes #9517, | ||
@PoorlyDefinedBehaviour) | ||
- Fix Merlin configuration for `(include_subdirs qualified)` modules (#9659, | ||
fixes #8297, @rgrinberg) | ||
- Fix handling of `enabled_if` in binary install stanzas. Previously, we'd | ||
ignore the result of `enabled_if` when evaluating `%{bin:..}` (#9707, | ||
@rgrinberg) | ||

||
We're happy to announce that Dune 3.13.0 is now available. | ||
This feature is packed with fixes and new features that you can find in the | ||
changelog. | ||
|
||
There are a few new features that we would like to specially highlight. | ||
|
||
### Generate Conflicts File for Menhir Grammars ([#9512](https://github.com/ocaml/dune/pull/9512), [@nojb](https://github.com/nojb)) | ||
|
||
When `menhir` is used to generate code from `.mly` files, there are sometimes | ||
issues with the grammar itself, such as shift-reduce conflicts. | ||
|
||
Menhir has an option to generate a "conflicts" file using its `--explain` flag, | ||
but until now this was not exposed by Dune. Starting from this version, this | ||
file will be generated automatically to help developers debug their grammars. | ||
|
||
### Cached Directory Targets ([#9535](https://github.com/ocaml/dune/pull/9535), [@rleshchinskiy](https://github.com/rleshchinskiy)) | ||
|
||
Dune's global cache is a way to save the result of intermediate build results, | ||
even across projects. Previously, it would only work with file targets. With | ||
this change, it now supports Dune's experimental directory targets. | ||
|
||
### Dynamic Module List ([#9578](https://github.com/ocaml/dune/pull/9578), [@nojb](https://github.com/nojb)) | ||
|
||
In several places in the Dune language, it is possible to pass a list of | ||
modules. For example in a `(library)` stanza, if for some reason the default of | ||
picking all the source files in the current directory is not the right thing to | ||
do, it is possible to pass `(module A B C)` to only attach these modules to the | ||
library. | ||
|
||
An important limitation has been that the list of modules needed to be static: | ||
written as is in the `dune` file. This limitation has now been lifted and it is | ||
possible to use `(:include)` or `%{read-lines:file}` in this field and similar | ||
ones. | ||
|
||
LexiFi's use case is a system of static plug-ins: a program is extended by | ||
selecting which modules are linked to the application core. This list of | ||
modules can now be emitted by a generator that reads a configuration file. | ||
|
||
Previously, this required using OCaml syntax for the `dune` file, which has | ||
several issues, including incompatibility with features like | ||
`(include_subdirs)` and poor performance because Dune does not know the | ||
dependencies of the generator and needs to re-run the build more times than | ||
necessary. |
