[Scons-users] Building from higher level directory

[Herman Reintke]

Hi,

It is a beginners question but did not find an answer using search.
First trying to understand the concepts before using in large projects.

For testing I have the following directory/file structure

- projects
--projects\test
--projects\test\hello.c
--projects\test\tst
--projects\test\tst\test.c

In the projects\test\tst directory I have the sconstruct file :

import os
env = Environment(tools=['mingw'])
env.Program('..\\hello.c')
env.Program('test.c')
env.Replace(
  ENV = {'PATH' : os.environ['PATH']}
)
print "BUILD_TARGETS is", map(str, BUILD_TARGETS)
#print env.Dump()

I expected to build both hello & test programs but..

When I execute "scons" in the projects\test\tst directory it is only 
building test
When I execute "scons ..\\" in the projects\test\tst directory it is 
building both test & hello

Can you give me a hint why this is or point me to the documentation to 
read ?
