v0.4.9

Release notes for Scala Native 0.4.9

New features

Incremental compilation

A new experimental compilation mode was being developed during the latest edition of Google Summer of Code by Liangyong Yu.
This feature splits generated code based on the package names and allows to skip re-compilation of generated LLVM IR if changes to definitions are detected.
Incremental compilation can allow reducing compilation times by up to 20%. You can read more about this change in Liangyongs GSoC report
To enable this experimental feature modify your nativeConfig:

nativeConfig ~= {
  _.withIncrementalCompilation(true)
}
