2 | # Config.in.legacy - support for backward compatibility | |
3 | # | |
f8c56f5f TDS |
4 | # 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. | |
ebcfa987 AVEM |
7 | # |
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. | |
f8c56f5f TDS |
14 | # |
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: | |

37 | # string "Some bar string" | |

58 | This option is selected automatically when your old .config uses an | |
59 | option that no longer exists in current buildroot. In that case, the | |
60 | build will fail. Look for config options which are selected in the | |
61 | menu below: they no longer exist and should be replaced by something | |
62 | else. | |

107 | help | |
108 | The BR2_PACKAGE_QT_JAVASCRIPTCORE option was available to | |
109 | force the activation or disabling of the JIT compiler in the | |
110 | Qt Javascript interpreter. However, the JIT compiler is not | |

112 | does not always work. Moreover, Qt knows by itself for which | |
113 | architectures JIT support is possible, and will | |
114 | automatically enable it if possible. | |
115 | ||
116 | Therefore, this option was in fact useless, and causing | |
