[Scons-users] Scons understanding existing project

[Pietro Paolini]

Hi all,

I am wrestling to print out the sources files resulting in a certain target
being built, I have inserted a print statement into the Sconscript file as
following :

    src += [task_c]
    for p_file in src:
        print(p_file)
    env.Program('executable-name', source = src)

But all I get is :

* [<SCons.Node.FS.File object at 0x7f08505a4390>]                          *
* [<SCons.Node.FS.File object at 0x7f08505b0050>, <SCons.Node.FS.File
object at 0x7f08505b0690>, <SCons.Node.FS.File object at 0x7f08505b0550>,
<SCons.Node.FS.File object at 0x7f08505b0a90>, <SCons.Node.FS.Fil
e object at 0x7f08505b0950>, <SCons.Node.FS.File object at 0x7f08505a4ed0>,
<SCons.Node.FS.File object at 0x7f08505b0310>] *


Is there any way to print the actual file name ?

Cheers,
Pietro
