[Scons-users] Help handling dependency on external library

[Pedro Larroy]

Hi

I'm not able to handle a dependecy on an external library that has to
be built with an external command, what's the way to do it?

I tried to execute scons from a 'Command' builder but it's not run by Scons.

The file +-3rd-party/mongo-cxx-driver/libmongoclient_release.a  in the
tree doesn't have further dependencies....

My Sconstruct looks like:


mongoclient_file =
File('3rd-party/mongo-cxx-driver/libmongoclient_{0}.a'.format(g_CONFIGURATION['build']))
mongoclient_compilation = env.Command(mongoclient_file,
    None,
    "scons -C 3rd-party/mongo-cxx-driver/ --build={0} -j
{1}".format(g_CONFIGURATION['build'], PARALLELISM))
env.Depends('build/release/mmcc', mongoclient_file)


Thanks.
