-WHAT IS SCONS?
-
-SCons is a software construction tool (build tool, or make tool) written
-in Python. Its design is based on the design which won the Software
-Carpentry build tool competition in August 2000 (in turn derived from
-the Perl-based Cons build tool).
+ABOUT SCONS
Distinctive features of SCons include:
+ - a global view of all dependencies; no multiple passes to get
+ everything built properly
- configuration files are Python scripts, allowing the full use of a
- real scripting language to solve build problems
+ real scripting language to solve difficult build problems
- a modular architecture allows the SCons Build Engine to be
embedded in other Python software
- - a global view of all dependencies; no multiple passes to get
- everything built
- the ability to scan files for implicit dependencies (#include files);
- - improved parallel build (-j) support
- - use of MD5 signatures to decide if a file has changed
+ - improved parallel build (-j) support that provides consistent
+ build speedup regardless of source tree layout
+ - use of MD5 signatures to decide if a file has really changed; no
+ need to "touch" files to fool make that something is up-to-date
- easily extensible through user-defined Builder and Scanner objects
- build actions can be Python code, as well as external commands
-An scons-users mailing list has been created for those interested in
-getting started using SCons. You can subscribe at:

+RELEASE 0.08 -
- This is the seventh alpha release of SCons. Please consult the
+ This is the eighth alpha release of SCons. Please consult the
CHANGES.txt file for a list of specific changes since last release.
- Please note the following UPCOMING very important change:
+ Please note the following important changes since release 0.07:
- - As of the next SCons release (0.08), Builder objects will no longer
- automatically split target and source file strings on white space.
- SCons will interpret the string arguments for the target or source
- files as the complete name of the file, even if the name contains
- white space.
+ - Builder objects no longer automatically split target and source
+ file strings on white space. SCons will interpret the string
+ arguments for the target or source files as the complete name of
+ the file, even if the name contains white space.
Consequently, any builder calls that you have defined which supply
multiple file names in a single string, such as:
for_signature. You will need to add this argument to any
generator functions you have defined.
- Please note the following important changes since release 0.05:
-
- - Python functions as Builder actions now take Node objects, not
- strings, as arguments. The string representation of a Node
- object is the file name, so you should change your function
- actions to use the str() built-in function to fetch the file
- name:
-
- def build_it(target = None, source = None, env = None):
- print "Building %s from %s" % (str(target), str(source))
- open(str(target), 'w').write(open(str(source), 'r').read())
- return 0
-
Owing to an extensive test suite, the SCons team believes that this
release is of sufficient quality that you can use it for real work,
despite the "alpha" label.
