Scala sbt 1.1.1 patch notes

Eugene Yokota Scala Team, Lightbend, Inc.

Hi everyone. It’s time for a sbt 1.1.x hotfix. We have 1.1.1 available as a hotfix to 1.1.x series.

sbt 1 follows Semantic Versioning

As a reminder, sbt 1 is released under Semantic Versioning. So plugins released for 1.0.x will continue to work throughout 1.x including 1.1, 1.2, etc. This includes the latest 1.1.1 as well.

Bug fixes

Improvements

  • Deprecates Extracted#append in favour of appendWithSession or appendWithoutSession. #3865 by @dwijnand
  • Adds a new global Boolean setting called autoStartServer. See below.
  • Upgrades Scala versions used for sbt cross building ^^. #3923 by @dwijnand
  • Many documentation maintenance changes by @xuwei-k.

autoStartServer setting

sbt 1.1.1 adds a new global Boolean setting called autoStartServer, which is set to true by default. When set to true, sbt shell will automatically start sbt server. Otherwise, it will not start the server until startSever command is issued. This could be used to opt out of server for security reasons.
