[Scons-users] Building mixed architectures with SCons on Windows with VisualStudio

[mg at ncp-e.com]

Hi,

I'd like to build x86 and amd64 binaries in one build run with SCons
under Windows using Visual Studio.

I've done something similar under Linux to support a host and a target
toolchain.  This was rather simple, just using a different Environment
with some changed variables for CC and so on.

On Windows things seem much more complicated. The MSVC detection in
SCons seems to be a global thing that only runs once. Also the visual
studio requires a bunch of environment variables and what not to
working correctly.

Building for both architectures is required partly due to limitations
in third party products and because we want to ship combined installers
that can install both x86 and amd64 versions of the software.

Does anyone have suggestions on how to get this smartly done in SCons?

Kind regards

Matthias
