- Bug fixes
We’ve chosen to release 1.0 as a pre-release to NuGet and Chocolatey, so we and the community can more easily test and ensure that our 1.0 release will be as stable as possible. It will also enable us to see if there are any steps you need to take to adapt your scripts for 1.0, and for us to see if there’re any unintended breaking changes, by testing as many addins, modules, and recipes as possible.
Breaking changes in Cake Frosting
In this release the UseTool extension has been renamed to InstallTool. In our prior release candidate we also noted that CakeHostBuilder has been removed and can be used directly.
With Cake.Frosting 0.38.x:
With Cake.Frosting 1.0:
Addin recommended Cake version set to 1.0
In preparation for the 1.0 release, we’ve now set the recommended version of Cake.Core for addins to target to 1.0.
This won’t break the build but you might see warnings like below when Addins/Modules are loaded.
The assembly 'Cake.DotNetTool.Module, Version=0.4.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' is referencing an older version of Cake.Core (0.33.0).Addin authors can start preparing for the 1.0 release by starting to build against Cake.Core version 1.0.0-rc0003.
