[Scons-users] What is the best approach with SConstruct calling SConscript

[Bill Deegan]

Sounds like you want to change the variant dir from within the variant

Effectively

VariantDir('.','win32')


That's not going to work.

What's the benefit of setting the variant dir from within the SConscript?
