[Scons-users] Specify Toolchain for Windows

[Zarko Berberski (Aditi Staffing LLC)]

Are you launching scons.py from some command shell/script ? 

The setup I'm working with uses cygwin64 and the build script adds "C:\cygwin64\usr\x86_64-w64-mingw32\sys-root\mingw\bin" (and the whole slew of others) so scons.py already has it and doesn't need build. 

When I need to invoke scons.py standalone (like form a debugger) I inject a file by adding something like:

Import os, sys
SconsStarter = os.path.join( os.path.dirname(__file__), "SconsStarter.py")
execfile(SconsStarter)

to the very beginning of scons.py and SconsStarter.py adds all paths I need, like:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BuildRoot = r"C:\cygwin64\home\v-zaberb"

BuildPath = [ 
              r"C:\ocamlmgw64\bin", 
              r"C:\PROGRA~2\MICROS~1.0\VC\bin\amd64", 
              r"C:\PROGRA~2\MICROS~1.0\VC\bin", 
              r"C:\PROGRA~2\MICROS~4\F#\4.0\FRAMEW~1\v4.0/", 
              r"C:\cygwin64\usr\x86_64-w64-mingw32\sys-root\mingw\bin" 
]

SconsPath = [ join(sys.prefix, 'scons'),    # throwaway, scons.py eats sys.path[0]
              join(sys.prefix, 'Lib', 'site-packages', 'scons-2.5.0'), 
              join(sys.prefix, 'Lib', 'site-packages', 'scons-2.5.0', 'scons')
              ]

sys.path = SconsPath + BuildPath + sys.path
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Oh and you do need to put one extra path at the top of your sys.path since scons.py is just going to eat it :-) Not kidding:

My apologies, I'm using `environ.Program()` as above:

```Python
shooter = environ.Program(target=target, source=sources,
    PATH=path, LIBS=libraries, CPPPATH=incpath, LIBPATH=libpath) ``` _______________________________________________
