Please note the following important changes since release 1.2.0:
- -- Visual Studio/Visual C++ support has been change significantly
+
+ -- Support for Latex glosseries and acronyms has been added
+
+ -- MICROSOFT VISUAL STUDIO VERSION/ARCH DETECTION HAS CHANGED
+
+ The way SCons detects Visual Studio on Windows has changed in
+ 1.3. By default, it should now use the latest installed
+ Visual Studio version on your machine, and compile for 32 or
+ 64 bits according to whether your OS is 32 or 64 bits (32/64
+ bit python makes no difference).
+
+ Two new variables control Visual Studio: MSVC_VERSION and
+ TARGET_ARCH. These variables ONLY take effect when passed to
+ the Environment() constructor; setting them later has no
+ effect. To use a non-default Visual Studio version, set
+ MSVC_VERSION to e.g. "8.0" or "7.1". Setting it to "xxx" (or
+ any nonexistent value) will make it print out the valid
+ versions on your system. To use a non-default architecture,
+ set TARGET_ARCH to "x86" or "x86_64" (various synonyms are
+ accepted).
+
+ Note that if you use MSVS_VERSION to build Visual Studio
+ projects from your SConstructs, MSVS_VERSION must be set to
+ the same version as MSVC_VERSION.
Support for HOST_OS,HOST_ARCH,TARGET_OS, TARGET_ARCH has been
added to allow specifying different target arch than the host
system. This is only supported for Visual Studio/Visual C++
at this time.
