[Scons-users] Removing object files

[Christopher Dimech]

I am using a separate .py file for a particular test. I need to
specify the .py file and then call -c. It does a clean in that
directory but does not build the program. Can one specify a clean in
the .py script before I rebuild my test program?

scons -f sct_membrane_meidum.py -c build/lib/behistun/


scons -f sct_membrane_meidum.py -c build/lib/behistun/
scons: Reading SConscript files ...
scons: done reading SConscript files.
scons: Cleaning targets ...
Removed build/lib/behistun/larsa/core_larsa.o
Removed build/lib/behistun/larsa/numset_larsa.o
Removed build/lib/behistun/larsa/strqry_larsa.o
