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

[Jason Kenny]

I see your point. I think we would want to use this to deal with new stuff, vs older stuff. I don't this vc6 is being used anymore ( I hope not) but I know the logic I have in parts for tool finding allows the old stuff to be unchanged and not break. I think in the SCons version of the MSVC tool allow the working old logic to handle older tools and let the vswhere handle newer drops. Ideally at some point older compiler like vc6 2002 2003 should be dropped. My worry is that rewriting the tool can break stuff that worked fine. I would prefer to add support for new stuff in a better way and nor break stuff that is working for people.

About vswhere not finding Visual C++ for Python?

If they can fix it (and any other versions we find missing which should be simple for microsoft themselves to do), then that would be great!

Hmm, as I suspected, vswhere does not find the "most interesting" of the compilers (at least for Python 2 users), namely the special 9.0 installation.
