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

[Gary Oberbrunner]

It's totally doable.  Just use separate Environments, something like this
(untested):

env_64 = Environment(tools=['default', 'msvc'],
                  TARGET_ARCH = 'amd64')
env_32 = Environment(tools=['default', 'msvc'],
                  TARGET_ARCH = 'x86')

and of course make sure to build into different Variant dirs to avoid
filename conflicts.
