+function. + +The first way you can call +&f-SConscript; +is to explicitly specify one or more +<varname>scripts</varname> +as the first argument. +A single script may be specified as a string; +multiple scripts must be specified as a list +(either explicitly or as created by +a function like +&f-Split;). +Examples: +<example> +SConscript('SConscript') # run SConscript in the current directory +SConscript('src/SConscript') # run SConscript in the src directory +SConscript(['src/SConscript', 'doc/SConscript']) +config = SConscript('MyConfig.py') +</example> + +The second way you can call +&f-SConscript; +is to specify a list of (sub)directory names +as a +<literal>dirs=</literal><varname>subdirs</varname> +keyword argument. +In this case, +&scons; +will, by default, +execute a subsidiary configuration file named +&SConscript; +in each of the specified directories. +You may specify a name other than +&SConscript; +by supplying an optional +<literal>name=</literal><varname>script</varname> +keyword argument. +The first three examples below have the same effect +as the first three examples above: +<example> +SConscript(dirs='.') # run SConscript in the current directory +SConscript(dirs='src') # run SConscript in the src directory +SConscript(dirs=['src', 'doc']) +SConscript(dirs=['sub1', 'sub2'], name='MySConscript') +</example> + +The optional +<varname>exports</varname> +argument provides a list of variable names or a dictionary of +named values to export to the +<varname>script(s)</varname>. +These variables are locally exported only to the specified +<varname>script(s)</varname>, +and do not affect the global pool of variables used by the +&f-Export; +function. +<!-- If multiple dirs are provided, each script gets a fresh export. --> +The subsidiary +<varname>script(s)</varname> +must use the +&f-link-Import; +function to import the variables. +Examples: +<example> +foo = SConscript('sub/SConscript', exports='env') +SConscript('dir/SConscript', exports=['env', 'variable']) +SConscript(dirs='subdir', exports='env variable') +SConscript(dirs=['one', 'two', 'three'], exports='shared_info') +</example> + +If the optional +<varname>variant_dir</varname> +argument is present, it causes an effect equivalent to the +&f-link-VariantDir;
