- Added `cxx_standard` field to the build configuration for specifying C++ standards.
- Updated documentation to reflect new `cxx_standard` and variable substitution capabilities in `cflags`, `ldflags`, and `include`.
- Implemented logic to handle C++ standard flags in the build process.
- Modified object file naming to include source file extensions.
- Updated various builder modules to support new language parsing logic.
- Introduced issue and feature request templates for better community engagement.
- Updated all relevant source files to include the new license header.
- Changed the default license in the configuration from MIT to GPL-3.0-or-later.
- `build.kind = "efi"` — UEFI PE32+ executable support. Links with `-shared -nostdlib -Wl,-dll -Wl,--subsystem,10`, output via `efi_path()` with `.efi` extension, rejected by `dcr run`.
- `build.kind = "elf"` — bare-metal ELF executable support. Uses `elf_path()` output path, rejected by `dcr run`, no extra linker flags.
Fixed:
- `dcr run` with `--target` or `build.target` now correctly finds the binary in the arch-specific target directory.
- `dcr run` checks profile-specific `build.{profile}.kind` before rejecting library builds (previously only checked `build.kind`).
- `dcr clean` now reads `build.target` from `dcr.toml` when no `--target` flag is given.
- Linux: target directory is now consistent — `target/<arch>-unknown-linux-gnu/<profile>/` (no stale `target/<profile>/`).
- `dcr.lock` is now populated with all resolved dependencies (registry, path, git) instead of being always empty.
- Git dependencies are now properly recognized and recorded in `dcr.lock`.
- `is_registry_dep` correctly identifies version-based registry dependency tables (`{ version = "..." }`) and rejects tables with unknown keys.
- `dcr test` accepts `--debug`/`--release` flags (defaults to `debug` profile instead of always `release`).
- Build fingerprint cache (`build_cache_path`) now includes `target_dir` — different targets no longer share a single cache entry.
- `object_path` no longer hardcodes the `src/` prefix — works correctly with custom `build.roots` (e.g. `roots = ["lib"]`).
- `dcr update` now generates `.exe` candidates for all Windows targets, not just `x86_64-pc-windows-msvc`.
- Compiler existence is verified before starting the build (clear error if compiler is not found in PATH).
- Consolidated duplicate `OUTPUT_MUTEX` definitions — MSVC backend now uses the shared mutex from `common.rs`.
- Registry cache root directory is created if missing (prevents cryptic errors when `~/.dcr/` does not exist).
- Added support for registry-based dependencies in the dependencies section.
- Updated the package section to include a project type field.
- Introduced a new CLI command `dcr setup` to load and display registry configurations.
- Implemented a new module for handling registry operations, including loading and resolving packages from registries.
- Enhanced the build process to handle library packaging, including copying headers and libraries to the appropriate target directories.
- Updated the CLI to support building library packages and added tests for library package builds.
- Improved error handling and output messages during dependency resolution and package fetching.
- Full Git dependency support in `dcr.toml`
- Support for `git`, `branch`, `tag`, and `rev` fields
- Automatic cloning and checkout via `git2`
- Dependencies are stored in `target/<profile>/deps/git/`
- New `dcr add` command for easy dependency management
- Short syntax: `github:user/repo`, `gitlab:user/repo`, `path:/to/lib`
- Automatic GitHub resolution for `git:user/repo`
- Visual feedback for dependency fetching with in-place status updates ("Fetching" → "Fetched")
- Modular dependency management architecture in `src/core/deps/`
- Updated build and run commands to accept a --target option for specifying target platforms.
- Enhanced documentation to include cross-compilation usage and supported targets.
- Modified configuration to allow target-specific settings and toolchains.
- Introduced a new test command to run project tests with specified profiles and targets.
- Improved handling of target directories and output structure for different platforms.
- Added support for multiple targets in the configuration file.
- Implemented inheritance for workspace and dependencies based on target and profile.
- `dcr gen` command for IDE integration and build tool support
- `dcr gen project-info`: Output project metadata as JSON
- `dcr gen compile-commands`: Generate `compile_commands.json` for clangd and clang-tidy
- `dcr gen vscode`: Generate VS Code `.vscode/` integration (launch.json, tasks.json, settings.json)
- `dcr gen clion`: Generate JetBrains CLion `.idea/` integration (run configurations, build targets)
- Full workspace support for all `gen` subcommands
- Workspace support (`[workspace]` with deps ordering)
- `clean --all` for workspace members
Changed:
- Project root discovery for `build/run/clean` (searches parent dirs)
- Workspace paths are excluded from root source scan
- Build output now uses a Cargo-style `Compiling <name> v<version>` line
- Build time now reports total time for the whole build stage (workspace included)
- Cache hits are silent (no compile line when nothing is rebuilt)
- Safer build cache: fingerprints include headers and resolved library files
- Modular builders for `gcc`, `clang`, `msvc`
- Platform-specific binary path generation (Linux/macOS/Windows)
Changed:
- Build configuration moved to `[build]` (`language`, `standard`, `compiler`)
- `dcr.toml` formatting now includes the `[build]` section
- Build uses built-in `debug/release` flags per compiler
- Build compiles all `*.c/*.cpp` files in `src/` into a single binary (no incremental build)
- Updated `dcr.toml` examples in documentation
