[Scons-users] How to select toolchain

[Bill Deegan]

Nikolaus,

env = Environment(tools=[list of all tools you need])

Where that list will likely include:
compiler
linker
perhaps archiver (if you're creating static libraries)
Anything else you might need.

We are aware it's a bit clunky to do it this way and there is a
re-engineering of the toolchain logic in progress, though it may take a
while to come to fruition.
