2 # Config.in.legacy - support for backward compatibility
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.
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.
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.
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 # It is not possible to select an option that is part of a choice. In that
20 # case, the new option should use the old symbol as default. This requires a
21 # change outside of Config.in.legacy, and this should be clearly marked as such
22 # in a comment, so that removal of legacy options also include the removal of
23 # these external references.
25 # [Example: renaming a bool option that is part of a choice from FOO to BAR]
28 # prompt "Choose foobar"
37 # prompt "Choose foobar"
38 # default BR2_BAR_1 if BR2_FOO_1 # legacy
39 # default BR2_BAR_2 if BR2_FOO_2 # legacy
46 # and in Config.in.legacy:
48 # bool "foobar 1 has been renamed"
50 # <suitable help text>
51 # # Note: BR2_FOO_1 is still referenced from package/foo/Config.in
53 # bool "foobar 2 has been renamed"
55 # <suitable help text>
56 # # Note: BR2_FOO_2 is still referenced from package/foo/Config.in
60 # For string options, it is not possible to directly select another symbol. In
61 # this case, a hidden wrap bool option has to be added, that defaults to y if
62 # the old string is not set at its default value. The wrap symbol should select
64 # If the original symbol has been renamed, the new symbol should use the value
65 # of the old symbol as default. Like for choice options, a comment should be
66 # added to flag that the symbol is still used in another file.
68 # [Example: renaming a string option from FOO to BAR]
70 # config BR2_FOO_STRING
71 # string "Some foo string"
74 # config BR2_BAR_STRING

78 # and in Config.in.legacy:
