Quick Example

This is a SConstruct file. See the scons documentation for more information.

import sconsx
from sconsx import config

# Creation of a SCons object
# Set an option file as well as command line args.
option = Options("options.py", ARGUMENTS)

# Creation of a SConsX object
conf = config.Config([ 'install', 'boost.python', 'qt4'])

# Update the SCons option with the default settings of each tools
conf.UpdateOptions( options )

# Creation of the Scons Environment
env = Environment( options= option )

# Update the environment with specific flags defined by SConsX and the user.
conf.Update( env )

# Generate an help using the command line scons -h
Help(option.GenerateHelpText(env))

SConscript(...)

Another equivalent solution is to use the ALEASolution method provided by SConsX:

import sconsx
from sconsx import config

# Creation of a SCons object
# Set an option file as well as command line args.
option = Options("options.py", ARGUMENTS)

env = config.ALEASolution(option, [ 'install', 'boost.python', 'qt4'])
SConscript(...)
