Running Scons 2.2.0 for Windows 7 cmd

2 (3.0.0 3.0.1).

, ,

• Windows Python C:/Program Files... Python 3.x ( )

• setup.py .

Anyway, I came up with the following solution.

• Install with python setup.py install
• Go to Python installation directory

• put either (or both) of the following files in the Scripts subfolder :

  • scons.batif you run scons from cmd
  • sconsif you run scons from Msys or Cygwin

I put the code of these 2 scripts below ( .batwas part of the source, but .shwas inspired).

File <Python_dir>/Scripts/scons.bat

goto endscons

@REM Credit where credit is due:  we return the exit code despite our
@REM use of setlocal+endlocal using a technique from Bear Journal:
