-.SH "NAME"
-scons \- a software construction tool
-.SH "SYNOPSIS"
-.HP \w'\fBscons\fR\ 'u
-\fBscons\fR [\fIoptions\fR...] [\fIname=val\fR...] [\fItargets\fR...]
-.SH "DESCRIPTION"
-.PP
-The
-\fBscons\fR
-utility builds software (or other files) by determining which component pieces must be rebuilt and executing the necessary commands to rebuild them\&.
-.PP
-By default,
-\fBscons\fR
-searches for a file named
-\fISConstruct\fR,
-\fISconstruct\fR, or
-\fIsconstruct\fR
-(in that order) in the current directory and reads its configuration from the first file found\&. An alternate file name may be specified via the
-\fB\-f\fR
-option\&.
-.PP
-The
-\fISConstruct\fR
-file can specify subsidiary configuration files using the
-\fBSConscript\fR() function\&. By convention, these subsidiary files are named
-\fISConscript\fR, although any name may be used\&. (Because of this naming convention, the term "SConscript files" is sometimes used to refer generically to all
-\fBscons\fR
-configuration files, regardless of actual file name\&.)
-.PP
-The configuration files specify the target files to be built, and (optionally) the rules to build those targets\&. Reasonable default rules exist for building common software components (executable programs, object files, libraries), so that for most software projects, only the target and input files need be specified\&.
-.PP
-Before reading the
-\fISConstruct\fR
-file,
-\fBscons\fR
-looks for a directory named
-\fIsite_scons\fR
-in various system directories (see below) and the directory containing the
-\fISConstruct\fR
-file; for each of those dirs which exists,
-\fIsite_scons\fR
-is prepended to sys\&.path, the file
-\fIsite_scons/site_init\&.py\fR, is evaluated if it exists, and the directory
-\fIsite_scons/site_tools\fR
-is prepended to the default toolpath if it exists\&. See the
-\fB\-\-no\-site\-dir\fR
-and
-\fB\-\-site\-dir\fR
-options for more details\&.
-.PP
-\fBscons\fR
-reads and executes the SConscript files as Python scripts, so you may use normal Python scripting capabilities (such as flow control, data manipulation, and imported Python libraries) to handle complicated build situations\&.
-\fBscons\fR, however, reads and executes all of the SConscript files
-\fIbefore\fR
-it begins building any targets\&. To make this obvious,
-\fBscons\fR
-prints the following messages about what it is doing:
-.sp
-.if n \{\
-.RS 4
-.\}
-.nf
-$ scons foo\&.out
-scons: Reading SConscript files \&.\&.\&.
-scons: done reading SConscript files\&.
-scons: Building targets \&.\&.\&.
-cp foo\&.in foo\&.out
-scons: done building targets\&.
-$
-.fi
-.if n \{\
-.RE
-.\}
-.PP
-The status messages (everything except the line that reads "cp foo\&.in foo\&.out") may be suppressed using the
-\fB\-Q\fR
-option\&.
-.PP
-\fBscons\fR
-does not automatically propagate the external environment used to execute
-\fBscons\fR
-to the commands used to build target files\&. This is so that builds will be guaranteed repeatable regardless of the environment variables set at the time
-\fBscons\fR
-is invoked\&. This also means that if the compiler or other commands that you want to use to build your target files are not in standard system locations,
-\fBscons\fR
-will not find them unless you explicitly set the PATH to include those locations\&. Whenever you create an
-\fBscons\fR
-construction environment, you can propagate the value of PATH from your external environment as follows:
-.sp
-.if n \{\
-.RS 4
-.\}
-.nf
-import os
-env = Environment(ENV = {\*(AqPATH\*(Aq : os\&.environ[\*(AqPATH\*(Aq]})
-.fi
-.if n \{\
-.RE
-.\}
-.PP
-Similarly, if the commands use external environment variables like $PATH, $HOME, $JAVA_HOME, $LANG, $SHELL, $TERM, etc\&., these variables can also be explicitly propagated:
-.sp
-.if n \{\
-.RS 4
-.\}
-.nf
-import os
-env = Environment(ENV = {\*(AqPATH\*(Aq : os\&.environ[\*(AqPATH\*(Aq],
- \*(AqHOME\*(Aq : os\&.environ[\*(AqHOME\*(Aq]})
-.fi
-.if n \{\
-.RE
-.\}
-.PP
-Or you may explicitly propagate the invoking user\*(Aqs complete external environment:
-.sp
-.if n \{\
-.RS 4
-.\}
-.nf
-import os
-env = Environment(ENV = os\&.environ)
-.fi
-.if n \{\
-.RE
-.\}
-.PP
-This comes at the expense of making your build dependent on the user\*(Aqs environment being set correctly, but it may be more convenient for many configurations\&.
-.PP
-\fBscons\fR
-can scan known input files automatically for dependency information (for example, #include statements in C or C++ files) and will rebuild dependent files appropriately whenever any "included" input file changes\&.
-\fBscons\fR
-supports the ability to define new scanners for unknown input file types\&.
-.PP
-\fBscons\fR
-knows how to fetch files automatically from SCCS or RCS subdirectories using SCCS, RCS or BitKeeper\&.
-.PP
-\fBscons\fR
-is normally executed in a top\-level directory containing a
-\fISConstruct\fR
-file, optionally specifying as command\-line arguments the target file or files to be built\&.
-.PP
-By default, the command
-.sp
-.if n \{\
-.RS 4
-.\}
-.nf
-scons
-.fi
-.if n \{\
-.RE
-.\}
-.PP
-will build all target files in or below the current directory\&. Explicit default targets (to be built when no targets are specified on the command line) may be defined the SConscript file(s) using the
-\fBDefault()\fR
-function, described below\&.
-.PP
-Even when
-\fBDefault()\fR
-targets are specified in the SConscript file(s), all target files in or below the current directory may be built by explicitly specifying the current directory (\&.) as a command\-line target:
-.sp
-.if n \{\
-.RS 4
-.\}
-.nf
-scons \&.
-.fi
-.if n \{\
-.RE
-.\}
-.PP
-Building all target files, including any files outside of the current directory, may be specified by supplying a command\-line target of the root directory (on POSIX systems):
-.sp
-.if n \{\
-.RS 4
-.\}
-.nf
-scons /
-.fi
-.if n \{\
-.RE
-.\}
-.PP
-or the path name(s) of the volume(s) in which all the targets should be built (on Windows systems):
-.sp
-.if n \{\
-.RS 4
-.\}
-.nf
-scons C:\e D:\e
-.fi
-.if n \{\
-.RE
-.\}
-.PP
-To build only specific targets, supply them as command\-line arguments:
-.sp
-.if n \{\
-.RS 4
-.\}
-.nf
-scons foo bar
-.fi
-.if n \{\
-.RE
-.\}
-.PP
-in which case only the specified targets will be built (along with any derived files on which they depend)\&.
-.PP
-Specifying "cleanup" targets in SConscript files is not usually necessary\&. The
-\fB\-c\fR
-flag removes all files necessary to build the specified target:
-.sp
-.if n \{\
-.RS 4
-.\}
-.nf
-scons \-c \&.
-.fi
-.if n \{\
-.RE
-.\}
-.PP
-to remove all target files, or:
-.sp
-.if n \{\
-.RS 4
-.\}
-.nf
-scons \-c build export
-.fi
-.if n \{\
-.RE
-.\}
-.PP
-to remove target files under build and export\&. Additional files or directories to remove can be specified using the
-\fBClean()\fR
-function\&. Conversely, targets that would normally be removed by the
-\fB\-c\fR
-invocation can be prevented from being removed by using the
-\fBNoClean\fR() function\&.
-.PP
-A subset of a hierarchical tree may be built by remaining at the top\-level directory (where the
-\fISConstruct\fR
-file lives) and specifying the subdirectory as the target to be built:
-.sp
-.if n \{\
-.RS 4
-.\}
-.nf
-scons src/subdir
-.fi
-.if n \{\
-.RE
-.\}
-.PP
-or by changing directory and invoking scons with the
-\fB\-u\fR
-option, which traverses up the directory hierarchy until it finds the
-\fISConstruct\fR
-file, and then builds targets relatively to the current subdirectory:
-.sp
-.if n \{\
-.RS 4
-.\}
-.nf
-cd src/subdir
-scons \-u \&.
-.fi
-.if n \{\
-.RE
-.\}
-.PP
-\fBscons\fR
-supports building multiple targets in parallel via a
-\fB\-j\fR
-option that takes, as its argument, the number of simultaneous tasks that may be spawned:
-.sp
-.if n \{\
-.RS 4
-.\}
-.nf
-scons \-j 4
-.fi
-.if n \{\
-.RE
-.\}
-.PP
-builds four targets in parallel, for example\&.
-.PP
-\fBscons\fR
-can maintain a cache of target (derived) files that can be shared between multiple builds\&. When caching is enabled in a SConscript file, any target files built by
-\fBscons\fR
-will be copied to the cache\&. If an up\-to\-date target file is found in the cache, it will be retrieved from the cache instead of being rebuilt locally\&. Caching behavior may be disabled and controlled in other ways by the
-\fB\-\-cache\-force\fR,
-\fB\-\-cache\-disable\fR,
-\fB\-\-cache\-readonly\fR, and
-\fB\-\-cache\-show\fR
-command\-line options\&. The
-\fB\-\-random\fR
-option is useful to prevent multiple builds from trying to update the cache simultaneously\&.
-.PP
-Values of variables to be passed to the SConscript file(s) may be specified on the command line:
-.sp
-.if n \{\
-.RS 4
-.\}
-.nf
-scons debug=1 \&.
-.fi
-.if n \{\
-.RE
-.\}
-.PP
-These variables are available in SConscript files through the ARGUMENTS dictionary, and can be used in the SConscript file(s) to modify the build in any way:
-.sp
-.if n \{\
-.RS 4
-.\}
-.nf
-if ARGUMENTS\&.get(\*(Aqdebug\*(Aq, 0):
- env = Environment(CCFLAGS = \*(Aq\-g\*(Aq)
-else:
- env = Environment()
-.fi
-.if n \{\
-.RE
-.\}
-.PP
-The command\-line variable arguments are also available in the ARGLIST list, indexed by their order on the command line\&. This allows you to process them in order rather than by name, if necessary\&. ARGLIST[0] returns a tuple containing (argname, argvalue)\&. A Python exception is thrown if you try to access a list member that does not exist\&.
-.PP
-\fBscons\fR
-requires Python version 2\&.7 or later\&. There should be no other dependencies or requirements to run
-\fBscons\&.\fR
-.PP
-By default,
-\fBscons\fR
-knows how to search for available programming tools on various systems\&. On Windows systems,
-\fBscons\fR
-searches in order for the Microsoft Visual C++ tools, the MinGW tool chain, the Intel compiler tools, and the PharLap ETS compiler\&. On OS/2 systems,
-\fBscons\fR
-searches in order for the OS/2 compiler, the GCC tool chain, and the Microsoft Visual C++ tools, On SGI IRIX, IBM AIX, Hewlett Packard HP\-UX, and Sun Solaris systems,
-\fBscons\fR
-searches for the native compiler tools (MIPSpro, Visual Age, aCC, and Forte tools respectively) and the GCC tool chain\&. On all other platforms, including POSIX (Linux and UNIX) platforms,
-\fBscons\fR
-searches in order for the GCC tool chain, the Microsoft Visual C++ tools, and the Intel compiler tools\&. You may, of course, override these default values by appropriate configuration of Environment construction variables\&.
-.SH "OPTIONS"
-.PP
-In general,
-\fBscons\fR
-supports the same command\-line options as GNU
-\fBmake\fR, and many of those supported by
-\fBcons\fR\&.
-.PP
-\-b
-.RS 4
-Ignored for compatibility with non\-GNU versions of
-\fBmake\&.\fR
-.RE
-.PP
-\-c, \-\-clean, \-\-remove
-.RS 4
-Clean up by removing all target files for which a construction command is specified\&. Also remove any files or directories associated to the construction command using the
-\fBClean\fR() function\&. Will not remove any targets specified by the
-\fBNoClean\fR() function\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-cache\-debug=\fIfile\fR
-.RS 4
-Print debug information about the
-\fBCacheDir\fR() derived\-file caching to the specified
-\fIfile\fR\&. If
-\fIfile\fR
-is
-\fB\-\fR
-(a hyphen), the debug information are printed to the standard output\&. The printed messages describe what signature file names are being looked for in, retrieved from, or written to the
-\fBCacheDir\fR() directory tree\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-cache\-disable, \-\-no\-cache
-.RS 4
-Disable the derived\-file caching specified by
-\fBCacheDir\fR()\&.
-\fBscons\fR
-will neither retrieve files from the cache nor copy files to the cache\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-cache\-force, \-\-cache\-populate
-.RS 4
-When using
-\fBCacheDir\fR(), populate a cache by copying any already\-existing, up\-to\-date derived files to the cache, in addition to files built by this invocation\&. This is useful to populate a new cache with all the current derived files, or to add to the cache any derived files recently built with caching disabled via the
-\fB\-\-cache\-disable\fR
-option\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-cache\-readonly
-.RS 4
-Use the cache (if enabled) for reading, but do not not update the cache with changed files\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-cache\-show
-.RS 4
-When using
-\fBCacheDir\fR() and retrieving a derived file from the cache, show the command that would have been executed to build the file, instead of the usual report, "Retrieved `file\*(Aq from cache\&." This will produce consistent output for build logs, regardless of whether a target file was rebuilt or retrieved from the cache\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-config=\fImode\fR
-.RS 4
-This specifies how the
-\fBConfigure\fR
-call should use or generate the results of configuration tests\&. The option should be specified from among the following choices:
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-config=auto
-.RS 4
-scons will use its normal dependency mechanisms to decide if a test must be rebuilt or not\&. This saves time by not running the same configuration tests every time you invoke scons, but will overlook changes in system header files or external commands (such as compilers) if you don\*(Aqt specify those dependecies explicitly\&. This is the default behavior\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-config=force
-.RS 4
-If this option is specified, all configuration tests will be re\-run regardless of whether the cached results are out of date\&. This can be used to explicitly force the configuration tests to be updated in response to an otherwise unconfigured change in a system header file or compiler\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-config=cache
-.RS 4
-If this option is specified, no configuration tests will be rerun and all results will be taken from cache\&. Note that scons will still consider it an error if \-\-config=cache is specified and a necessary test does not yet have any results in the cache\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-C\fI directory\fR, \-\-directory=\fIdirectory\fR
-.RS 4
-Change to the specified
-\fIdirectory\fR
-before searching for the
-\fISConstruct\fR,
-\fISconstruct\fR, or
-\fIsconstruct\fR
-file, or doing anything else\&. Multiple
-\fB\-C\fR
-options are interpreted relative to the previous one, and the right\-most
-\fB\-C\fR
-option wins\&. (This option is nearly equivalent to
-\fB\-f directory/SConstruct\fR, except that it will search for
-\fISConstruct\fR,
-\fISconstruct\fR, or
-\fIsconstruct\fR
-in the specified directory\&.)
-.RE
-.PP
-\-D
-.RS 4
-Works exactly the same way as the
-\fB\-u\fR
-option except for the way default targets are handled\&. When this option is used and no targets are specified on the command line, all default targets are built, whether or not they are below the current directory\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-debug=\fItype\fR
-.RS 4
-Debug the build process\&.
-\fItype[,type\&.\&.\&.]\fR
-specifies what type of debugging\&. Multiple types may be specified, separated by commas\&. The following types are valid:
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-debug=count
-.RS 4
-Print how many objects are created of the various classes used internally by SCons before and after reading the SConscript files and before and after building targets\&. This is not supported when SCons is executed with the Python
-\fB\-O\fR
-(optimized) option or when the SCons modules have been compiled with optimization (that is, when executing from
-\fB*\&.pyo\fR
-files)\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-debug=duplicate
-.RS 4
-Print a line for each unlink/relink (or copy) of a variant file from its source file\&. Includes debugging info for unlinking stale variant files, as well as unlinking old targets before building them\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-debug=dtree
-.RS 4
-A synonym for the newer
-\fB\-\-tree=derived\fR
-option\&. This will be deprecated in some future release and ultimately removed\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-debug=explain
-.RS 4
-Print an explanation of precisely why
-\fBscons\fR
-is deciding to (re\-)build any targets\&. (Note: this does not print anything for targets that are
-\fInot\fR
-rebuilt\&.)
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-debug=findlibs
-.RS 4
-Instruct the scanner that searches for libraries to print a message about each potential library name it is searching for, and about the actual libraries it finds\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-debug=includes
-.RS 4
-Print the include tree after each top\-level target is built\&. This is generally used to find out what files are included by the sources of a given derived file:
-.sp
-.if n \{\
-.RS 4
-.\}
-.nf
-$ scons \-\-debug=includes foo\&.o
-.fi
-.if n \{\
-.RE
-.\}
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-debug=memoizer
-.RS 4
-Prints a summary of hits and misses using the Memoizer, an internal subsystem that counts how often SCons uses cached values in memory instead of recomputing them each time they\*(Aqre needed\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-debug=memory
-.RS 4
-Prints how much memory SCons uses before and after reading the SConscript files and before and after building targets\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-debug=nomemoizer
-.RS 4
-A deprecated option preserved for backwards compatibility\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-debug=objects
-.RS 4
-Prints a list of the various objects of the various classes used internally by SCons\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-debug=pdb
-.RS 4
-Re\-run SCons under the control of the pdb Python debugger\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-debug=prepare
-.RS 4
-Print a line each time any target (internal or external) is prepared for building\&.
-\fBscons\fR
-prints this for each target it considers, even if that target is up to date (see also \-\-debug=explain)\&. This can help debug problems with targets that aren\*(Aqt being built; it shows whether
-\fBscons\fR
-is at least considering them or not\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-debug=presub
-.RS 4
-Print the raw command line used to build each target before the construction environment variables are substituted\&. Also shows which targets are being built by this command\&. Output looks something like this:
-.sp
-.if n \{\
-.RS 4
-.\}
-.nf
-$ scons \-\-debug=presub
-Building myprog\&.o with action(s):
- $SHCC $SHCFLAGS $SHCCFLAGS $CPPFLAGS $_CPPINCFLAGS \-c \-o $TARGET $SOURCES
-\&.\&.\&.
-.fi
-.if n \{\
-.RE
-.\}
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-debug=stacktrace
-.RS 4
-Prints an internal Python stack trace when encountering an otherwise unexplained error\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-debug=stree
-.RS 4
-A synonym for the newer
-\fB\-\-tree=all,status\fR
-option\&. This will be deprecated in some future release and ultimately removed\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-debug=time
-.RS 4
-Prints various time profiling information: the time spent executing each individual build command; the total build time (time SCons ran from beginning to end); the total time spent reading and executing SConscript files; the total time spent SCons itself spend running (that is, not counting reading and executing SConscript files); and both the total time spent executing all build commands and the elapsed wall\-clock time spent executing those build commands\&. (When
-\fBscons\fR
-is executed without the
-\fB\-j\fR
-option, the elapsed wall\-clock time will typically be slightly longer than the total time spent executing all the build commands, due to the SCons processing that takes place in between executing each command\&. When
-\fBscons\fR
-is executed
-\fIwith\fR
-the
-\fB\-j\fR
-option, and your build configuration allows good parallelization, the elapsed wall\-clock time should be significantly smaller than the total time spent executing all the build commands, since multiple build commands and intervening SCons processing should take place in parallel\&.)
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-debug=tree
-.RS 4
-A synonym for the newer
-\fB\-\-tree=all\fR
-option\&. This will be deprecated in some future release and ultimately removed\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-diskcheck=\fItypes\fR
-.RS 4
-Enable specific checks for whether or not there is a file on disk where the SCons configuration expects a directory (or vice versa), and whether or not RCS or SCCS sources exist when searching for source and include files\&. The
-\fItypes\fR
-argument can be set to:
-\fBall\fR, to enable all checks explicitly (the default behavior);
-\fBnone\fR, to disable all such checks;
-\fBmatch\fR, to check that files and directories on disk match SCons\*(Aq expected configuration;
-\fBrcs\fR, to check for the existence of an RCS source for any missing source or include files;
-\fBsccs\fR, to check for the existence of an SCCS source for any missing source or include files\&. Multiple checks can be specified separated by commas; for example,
-\fB\-\-diskcheck=sccs,rcs\fR
-would still check for SCCS and RCS sources, but disable the check for on\-disk matches of files and directories\&. Disabling some or all of these checks can provide a performance boost for large configurations, or when the configuration will check for files and/or directories across networked or shared file systems, at the slight increased risk of an incorrect build or of not handling errors gracefully (if include files really should be found in SCCS or RCS, for example, or if a file really does exist where the SCons configuration expects a directory)\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\-\-duplicate=\fIORDER\fR
-.RS 4
-There are three ways to duplicate files in a build tree: hard links, soft (symbolic) links and copies\&. The default behaviour of SCons is to prefer hard links to soft links to copies\&. You can specify different behaviours with this option\&.
-\fIORDER\fR

-\fIhard\-soft\-copy\fR
-(the default),
-\fIsoft\-hard\-copy\fR,

-.SS "Builder Methods"

-Because long lists of file names can lead to a lot of quoting,

-.PP
-Like all Python arguments, the target and source arguments to a builder method can be specified either with or without the "target" and "source" keywords\&. When the keywords are omitted, the target is first, followed by the source\&. The following are equivalent examples of calling the Program builder method:

Because the list and the object are different types, Python will not update the original list in place, but will instead create a new Node\-list object containing the concatenation of the list elements and the Builder results\&.

-By default, this also generates a solution file for the specified project, a

-file for Visual Studio 7 (\&.NET)\&. This behavior may be disabled by specifying
-auto_build_solution=0
-when you call
-\fBMSVSProject\fR, in which case you presumably want to build the solution file(s) by calling the
-\fBMSVSSolution\fR
-Builder (see below)\&.
-.sp
-The
-\fBMSVSProject\fR
-builder takes several lists of filenames to be placed into the project file\&. These are currently limited to
-srcs,
-incs,
-localincs,
-resources, and
-misc\&. These are pretty self\-explanatory, but it should be noted that these lists are added to the
-\fB$SOURCES\fR
-construction variable as strings, NOT as SCons File Nodes\&. This is because they represent file names to be added to the project file, not the source files used to build the project file\&.
-.sp
-The above filename lists are all optional, although at least one must be specified for the resulting project file to be non\-empty\&.
-.sp
-In addition to the above lists of values, the following values may be specified:
-.sp
-
-target: The name of the target
-\&.dsp
-or
-\&.vcproj
-file\&. The correct suffix for the version of Visual Studio must be used, but the
-\fB$MSVSPROJECTSUFFIX\fR
-construction variable will be defined to the correct value (see example below)\&.
-.sp
-
-variant: The name of this particular variant\&. For Visual Studio 7 projects, this can also be a list of variant names\&. These are typically things like "Debug" or "Release", but really can be anything you want\&. For Visual Studio 7 projects, they may also specify a target platform separated from the variant name by a
-|
-(vertical pipe) character:
-Debug|Xbox\&. The default target platform is Win32\&. Multiple calls to
-\fBMSVSProject\fR
-with different variants are allowed; all variants will be added to the project file with their appropriate build targets and sources\&.
-.sp
-
-buildtarget: An optional string, node, or list of strings or nodes (one per build variant), to tell the Visual Studio debugger what output target to use in what build variant\&. The number of
-buildtarget
-entries must match the number of
-variant
-entries\&.
-.sp
-
-runfile: The name of the file that Visual Studio 7 and later will run and debug\&. This appears as the value of the
-Output
-field in the resutling Visual Studio project file\&. If this is not specified, the default is the same as the specified
-buildtarget
-value\&.
-.sp
-Note that because
-SCons
-always executes its build commands from the directory in which the
-SConstruct
-file is located, if you generate a project file in a different directory than the
-SConstruct
-directory, users will not be able to double\-click on the file name in compilation error messages displayed in the Visual Studio console output window\&. This can be remedied by adding the Visual C/C++

-In addition to Builder methods,
-\fBscons\fR
-provides a number of other construction environment methods and global functions to manipulate the build configuration\&.
-.PP
-Usually, a construction environment method and global function with the same name both exist so that you don\*(Aqt have to remember whether to a specific bit of functionality must be called with or without a construction environment\&. In the following list, if you call something as a global function it looks like:
-.sp
-.if n \{\
-.RS 4
-.\}
-.nf
-Function(\fIarguments\fR)
-.fi
-.if n \{\
-.RE
-.\}
-.PP
-and if you call something through a construction environment it looks like:
-.sp
-.if n \{\

-.nf
-env\&.Function(\fIarguments\fR)

-.if n \{\
-.RE

-If you can call the functionality in both ways, then both forms are listed\&.

-.sp
-.if n \{\
-.RS 4
-.\}
-.nf
-from SCons\&.Script import *
-.fi
-.if n \{\
-.RE
-.\}
-.PP
-Except where otherwise noted, the same\-named construction environment method and global function provide the exact same functionality\&. The only difference is that, where appropriate, calling the functionality through a construction environment will substitute construction variables into any supplied strings\&. For example:
-.sp
-.if n \{\

-.nf
-env = Environment(FOO = \*(Aqfoo\*(Aq)
-Default(\*(Aq$FOO\*(Aq)
-env\&.Default(\*(Aq$FOO\*(Aq)

-In the above example, the first call to the global
-\fBDefault()\fR
-function will actually add a target named
-\fB$FOO\fR
-to the list of default targets, while the second call to the
-\fBenv\&.Default()\fR
-construction environment method will expand the value and add a target named

-Note: Although it is not yet officially deprecated, use of this function is discouraged\&. See the
-\fBDecider\fR
-function for a more flexible and straightforward way to configure SCons\*(Aq decision\-making\&.
-.sp
-The
-\fBTargetSignatures\fR
-function tells
-scons
-how to decide if a target file (a file that
-\fIis\fR
-built from any other files) has changed since the last time it was used to build some other target file\&. Legal values are
-"build";
-"content"
-(or its synonym
-"MD5");
-"timestamp"; or
-"source"\&.
-.sp
-If the environment method is used, the specified type of target signature is only used for targets built with that environment\&. If the global function is used, the specified type of signature becomes the default used for all target files that don\*(Aqt have an explicit target signature type specified for their environments\&.
-.sp
-
-"content"
-(or its synonym
-"MD5") means
-scons
-decides that a target file has changed if the MD5 checksum of its contents has changed since the last time it was used to rebuild some other target file\&. This means
-scons
-will open up MD5 sum the contents of target files after they\*(Aqre built, and may decide that it does not need to rebuild "downstream" target files if a file was rebuilt with exactly the same contents as the last time\&.
-.sp
-
-"timestamp"
-means
-scons
-decides that a target file has changed if its timestamp (modification time) has changed since the last time it was used to rebuild some other target file\&. (Note that although this is similar to the behavior of Make, by default it will also rebuild if the dependency is
-\fIolder\fR
-than the last time it was used to rebuild the target file\&.)
-.sp
-
-"source"
-means
-scons
-decides that a target file has changed as specified by the corresponding
-\fBSourceSignatures\fR
-setting ("MD5"
-or
-"timestamp")\&. This means that
-scons
-will treat all input files to a target the same way, regardless of whether they are source files or have been built from other files\&.
-.sp
-
-"build"
-means
-scons
-decides that a target file has changed if it has been rebuilt in this invocation or if its content or timestamp have changed as specified by the corresponding
-\fBSourceSignatures\fR
-setting\&. This "propagates" the status of a rebuilt file so that other "downstream" target files will always be rebuilt, even if the contents or the timestamp have not changed\&.
-.sp
-
-"build"
-signatures are fastest because
-"content"
-(or
-"MD5") signatures take longer to compute, but are more accurate than
-"timestamp"
-signatures, and can prevent unnecessary "downstream" rebuilds when a target file is rebuilt to the exact same contents as the previous build\&. The
-"source"
-setting provides the most consistent behavior when other target files may be rebuilt from both source and target input files\&. The default value is
-"source"\&.
-.sp
-Because the default setting is
-"source", using
-\fBSourceSignatures\fR
-is generally preferable to
-\fBTargetSignatures\fR, so that the up\-to\-date decision will be consistent for all files (or all files built with a specific construction environment)\&. Use of

It must have one of the suffixes \&.h, \&.hpp, \&.H, \&.hxx, \&.hh\&. You can turn off automatic moc file generation by setting QT_AUTOSCAN to 0\&. See also the corresponding

-\fBAutomatic moc file generation from cxx files\&.\fR
-As stated in the qt documentation, include the moc file at the end of the cxx file\&. Note that you have to include the file, which is generated by the transformation ${QT_MOCCXXPREFIX}<basename>${QT_MOCCXXSUFFIX}, by default <basename>\&.moc\&. A warning is generated after building the moc file, if you do not include the correct file\&. If you are using VariantDir, you may need to specify duplicate=1\&.

-\fIcustom_tests\fR

-\fIconf_dir\fR
-specifies a directory where the test cases are built\&. Note that this directory is not used for building normal targets\&. The default value is the directory #/\&.sconf_temp\&.
-\fIlog_file\fR
-specifies a file which collects the output from commands that are executed to check for the existence of header files, libraries, etc\&. The default is the file #/config\&.log\&. If you are using the
-\fBVariantDir\fR() method, you may want to specify a subdirectory under your variant directory\&.
-\fIconfig_h\fR
-specifies a C header file where the results of tests will be written, e\&.g\&. #define HAVE_STDIO_H, #define HAVE_LIBM, etc\&. The default is to not write a
-\fBconfig\&.h\fR
-file\&. You can specify the same
-\fBconfig\&.h\fR
-file in multiple calls to Configure, in which case
-\fBscons\fR
-will concatenate all results in the specified file\&. Note that SCons uses its normal dependency checking to decide if it\*(Aqs necessary to rebuild the specified
-\fIconfig_h\fR
-file\&. This means that the file is not necessarily re\-built each time scons is run, but is only rebuilt if its contents will have changed and some target that depends on the
-\fIconfig_h\fR

-.SS "Windows: Cygwin Tools and Cygwin Python vs\&. Windows Pythons"
-.PP
-Cygwin supplies a set of tools and utilities that let users work on a Windows system using a more POSIX\-like environment\&. The Cygwin tools, including Cygwin Python, do this, in part, by sharing an ability to interpret UNIX\-like path names\&. For example, the Cygwin tools will internally translate a Cygwin path name like /cygdrive/c/mydir to an equivalent Windows pathname of C:/mydir (equivalent to C:\emydir)\&.
-.PP
-Versions of Python that are built for native Windows execution, such as the python\&.org and ActiveState versions, do not have the Cygwin path name semantics\&. This means that using a native Windows version of Python to build compiled programs using Cygwin tools (such as gcc, bison, and flex) may yield unpredictable results\&. "Mixing and matching" in this way can be made to work, but it requires careful attention to the use of path names in your SConscript files\&.
-.PP
-In practice, users can sidestep the issue by adopting the following rules: When using gcc, use the Cygwin\-supplied Python interpreter to run SCons; when using Microsoft Visual C/C++ (or some other Windows compiler) use the python\&.org or ActiveState version of Python to run SCons\&.
-.SS "Windows: scons\&.bat file"
-.PP
-On Windows systems, SCons is executed via a wrapper
-\fBscons\&.bat\fR
-file\&. This has (at least) two ramifications:
-.PP
-First, Windows command\-line users that want to use variable assignment on the command line may have to put double quotes around the assignments:
-.sp
-.if n \{\
-.RS 4
-.\}
-.nf
-scons "FOO=BAR" "BAZ=BLEH"
-.fi
-.if n \{\
-.RE
-.\}
-.PP
-Second, the Cygwin shell does not recognize this file as being the same as an
-\fBscons\fR
-command issued at the command\-line prompt\&. You can work around this either by executing
-\fBscons\&.bat\fR
-from the Cygwin command line, or by creating a wrapper shell script named
-\fBscons \&.\fR
-.SS "MinGW"
-.PP
-The MinGW bin directory must be in your PATH environment variable or the PATH variable under the ENV construction variable for SCons to detect and use the MinGW tools\&. When running under the native Windows Python interpreter, SCons will prefer the MinGW tools over the Cygwin tools, if they are both installed, regardless of the order of the bin directories in the PATH variable\&. If you have both MSVC and MinGW installed and you want to use MinGW instead of MSVC, then you must explicitly tell SCons to use MinGW by passing
