[Scons-users] SConf Configure log_file argument ignores dir path

[Bill Deegan]

Your sample is very similar to

test/Configure/VariantDir.py
Test configure logic.

Here:
env = Environment(LOGFILE='build/config.log')
import os
env.AppendENVPath('PATH', os.environ['PATH'])
VariantDir( 'build', '.' )
conf = env.Configure(conf_dir='build/config.tests', log_file='$LOGFILE')
r1 = conf.CheckCHeader( 'math.h' )
r2 = conf.CheckCHeader( 'no_std_c_header.h' ) # leads to compile error
env = conf.Finish()
Export( 'env' )
# print open( 'build/config.log' ).readlines()
SConscript( 'build/SConscript' )



Does your change break any tests?

Can you make a simple test which duplicates your issue?
