[Scons-users] vswhere.. does it find all the versions of visual studio SCons users care about?

[Jason Kenny]

I am not sure how that is going to help much. This gives you an install root to start from, however the stuff under this is not 100% the same for the different versions of VS. I don’t this solves issues with the WinSdk as well.

Fingers crossed it'll go back as far as VS 6.0.. ;)

Home machine shows both installed versions correctly:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\

I'll do a couple more at work tomorrow morning, as I have at least one with the "VC 9.0 for Python 2" on it, which I suspect is the hard case.

Greetings,
If you're using visual studio/visual c++ with scons, can you download/install vswhere.exe

https://github.com/Microsoft/vswhere/releases/download/2.3.2/vswhere.exe<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2FMicrosoft%2Fvswhere%2Freleases%2Fdownload%2F2.3.2%2Fvswhere.exe&data=02%7C01%7C%7Caa81537bc3b24cf2745208d578d4365d%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C636547775194932536&sdata=VVlcutsNeXnAaQjDDA791XoQT3M2QMFba8Kvj8fwYjs%3D&reserved=0>
And run it as follows:

vswhere -all -legacy -property installationPath
Please reply with the versions it locates and/or doesn't locate that are installed on your systems.
Trying to see if would be possible to use vswhere.exe to drop the somewhat complicated logic we have now to find MSVS MSVC installs.
Thanks,
