[Scons-users] how to configure scons for Visual Studio 2017 (RC)

[Bill Deegan]

MSVC initialization searches the registry for the versions of MSVC SCons
knows about.
Since this is a new version it likely requires some updates with
information on where the install information is stored in the registry.

If you look at SCons/Tool/MSCommon/vc.py (and vs.py)  you'll see a list of
registry locations.
If you can look at the registry on your machine and get us the appropriate
paths I can probably put together an updated file for you to try out
(and make the change in the devel tree).

You could also try setting:
MSVC_USE_SCRIPT (See manpage:
http://scons.org/doc/production/HTML/scons-man.html)

Which version of SCons are you running?
