[Scons-users] Is their a way to build directly from the .sconsign.dblite file on an incremental build?

[Don Baldwin]

Thanks Bill.  We’re aware of that option, and we do make use of that.  I was just looking for some additional optimizations to skip the actual parsing of the SConstruct files (which, in our builds, takes a significant amount of time).

Matt, thanks for the heads up on the ninja script generation tool.  We will definitely look into that further.

Thanks,
Don

Don,

No you can't build with only a .sconsign.dblite.

But you can instruct SCons to not scan for implicit dependencies and just use those which are stored in the .sconsign.dblite.
--implicit-deps-unchanged should do it.
Take a look at the manpage.

Hi,

Is there an option for skipping the normal SConstruct file processing on an incremental build and just building directly from the saved .sconsign.dblite file from the previous build?

The goal here is to provide an option for doing very fast incremental builds is the developer knows ahead of time that no dependencies have changed.

Thanks,
Don Baldwin
