Instructions for this can be found below. + + If you are not looking to use SCons in this way, then please + use either the scons-{version} package to install SCons on your + system, or the scons-src-{version} package if you want the full + source to SCons, including its packaging code and underlying + tests and testing infrastructure. + + 2) This file was included in some other software package so that + the package could be built using SCons. + + In this case, follow the instructions provided with the + rest of the software package for how to use SCons to build + and/or install the software. The file containing build and + installation instructions will typically be named README or + INSTALL. + +LATEST VERSION +============== + +Before going further, you can check for the latest version of the +scons-local package, or any SCons package, at the SCons download page: + + http://www.scons.org/download.html + + +EXECUTION REQUIREMENTS +====================== + +Running SCons requires Python version 1.5.2 or later. There should be +no other dependencies or requirements to run SCons. + +The default SCons configuration assumes use of the Microsoft Visual C++ +compiler suite on WIN32 systems, and assumes a C compiler named 'cc', +a C++ compiler named 'c++', and a Fortran compiler named 'g77' (such +as found in the GNU C compiler suite) on any other type of system. +You may, of course, override these default values by appropriate +configuration of Environment construction variables. + + +INSTALLATION +============ + +Installation of this package should be as simple as unpacking the +archive (either .tar.gz or .zip) in any directory (top-level or a +subdirectory) within the software package with which you want to ship +SCons. + +Once you have installed this package, you should write an SConstruct +file at the top level of your source tree to build your software as you +see fit. + +Then modify the build/install instructions for your package to instruct +your users to execute SCons as follows (if you installed this package in +your top-level directory): + + $ python scons.py + +Or (if, for example, you installed this package in a subdirectory named +"scons"): + + $ python scons/scons.py + +That should be all you have to do. (If it isn't that simple, please let +us know!) + + +CONTENTS OF THIS PACKAGE +======================== + +This scons-local package consists of the following: + +scons-LICENSE + A copy of the copyright and terms under which SCons is + distributed (the Open Source Initiative-approved MIT license). + + A disclaimer has been added to the beginning to make clear that + this license applies only to SCons, and not to any separate + software you've written with which you're planning to package + SCons. + +scons-README + What you're looking at right now. + +scons-local-{version}/ + The SCons build engine. This is structured as a Python + library. + +scons.py + The SCons script itself. The script sets up the Python + sys.path variable to use the build engine found in the + scons-local-{version}/ directory in preference to any other + SCons build engine installed on your system. + + +DOCUMENTATION +============= + +Because this package is intended to be included with other software by +experienced users, we have not included any SCons documentation in this +package (other than this scons-README file you're reading right now). + +If, however, you need documentation about SCons, then consult any of the +following from the corresponding scons-{version} or scons-src-{version} +package: + + The RELEASE.txt file (src/RELEASE.txt file in the + scons-src-{version} package), which contains notes about this + specific release, including known problems. + + The CHANGES.txt file (src/CHANGES.txt file in the + scons-src-{version} package), which contains a list of changes + since the previous release. + + The scons.1 man page (doc/man/scons.1 in the scons-src-{version} + package), which contains a section of small examples for getting + started using SCons. + +Additional documentation for SCons is available at: + + http://www.scons.org/doc.html + + +LICENSING +========= + +SCons is distributed under the MIT license, a full copy of which is +available in the scons-LICENSE file in this package. The MIT license is +an approved Open Source license, which means: + + This software is OSI Certified Open Source Software. OSI + Certified is a certification mark of the Open Source Initiative. + +More information about OSI certifications and Open Source software is +available at: + + http://www.opensource.org/ + + +REPORTING BUGS +============== + +You can report bugs either by following the "Tracker - Bugs" link +on the SCons project page: + + http://sourceforge.net/projects/scons/ + +or by sending mail to the SCons developers mailing list: + + scons-devel@lists.sourceforge.net + + +MAILING LISTS +============= + +A mailing list for users of SCons is available. You may send questions +or comments to the list at: + + scons-users@lists.sourceforge.net + +You may subscribe to the scons-users mailing list at: + + http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/scons-users + + +FOR MORE INFORMATION +==================== + +Check the SCons web site at: + + http://www.scons.org/ + + +AUTHOR INFO +=========== + +Steven Knight +knight at baldmt dot com +http://www.baldmt.com/~knight/ + +With plenty of help from the SCons Development team: + Chad Austin + Charles Crain + Steve Leblanc + Anthony Roach + Terrel Shumway + |
