| # Config.in.legacy - support for backward compatibility |
| # |
| # When an existing Config.in symbol is removed, it should be added again in |
| # this file, and take appropriate action to approximate backward compatibility. |
| # This will make the transition for the user more convenient. |
| # |
| # When adding legacy symbols to this file, add them to the front. The oldest |
| # symbols will be removed again after about two years. |
| # |
| # The symbol should be copied as-is from the place where it was previously |
| # defined, but the help text should be removed or replaced with something that |
| # explains how to fix it. |
| # |
| # For bool options, the old symbol should select BR2_LEGACY, so that the user |
| # is informed at build-time about selected legacy options. |
| # If there is an equivalent (set of) new symbols, these should be select'ed by |
| # the old symbol for backwards compatibility. |
| # |
| # For string options, it is not possible to directly select another symbol. In |
| # this case, a hidden wrap bool option has to be added, that defaults to y if |
| # the old string is not set at its default value. The wrap symbol should select |
| # BR2_LEGACY. |
| # If the original symbol has been renamed, the new symbol should use the value |
| # of the old symbol as default. This requires a change outside of |
| # Config.in.legacy, and this should be clearly marked as such below, so that |
| # removal of legacy options also include the removal of these external |
| # references. |
| # |
| # [Example: renaming a string option from FOO to BAR] |
| # original symbol: |
| # config BR2_FOO_STRING |
| # string "Some foo string" |
| # |
| # becomes: |
| # config BR2_BAR_STRING |
| # string "Some bar string" |
| # default BR2_FOO_STRING if BR2_FOO_STRING != "" # legacy |
| # |
| # and in Config.in.legacy: |
| # config BR2_FOO_STRING |
| # string "The foo string has been renamed" |
| # help |
| # <suitable help text> |

| # config BR2_FOO_STRING_WRAP |
| # bool |
| # default y if BR2_FOO_STRING != "" |
| # select BR2_LEGACY |
