2# Config.in.legacy - support for backward compatibility
3#
f8c56f5f

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.

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:
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
50#
51# # Note: BR2_FOO_STRING is still referenced from package/foo/Config.in

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.

104config BR2_PACKAGE_QT_JAVASCRIPTCORE
105 bool "qt javascriptcore option removed"
106 select BR2_LEGACY
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
111 available for all architectures, so forcing its activation
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
117 build problems when enabled on architectures for which the
118 JIT support was not available. It has been removed, and
119 there is no replacement: Qt will enable JIT at compile time
120 when possible.
