use SCons effectively. uction of software
(and other tangible products such as documentation files) by determining which
component pieces must be built or rebuilt and invoking the necessary
commands to build them.
Features:
* Configuration files are Python scripts -
use the power of a real programming language
to solve build problems; no complex domain-specific language to learn.
* Reliable, automatic dependency analysis built-in for C, C++ and Fortran.
No more "make depend" or "make clean" to get all of the dependencies.
Dependency analysis is easily extensible through user-defined
dependency Scanners for other languages or file types.
* Built-in support for C, C++, D, Java, Fortran, Yacc, Lex, Qt and SWIG,
and building TeX and LaTeX documents.
Easily extensible through user-defined Builders for other languages
or file types.
* Building from central repositories of source code and/or pre-built targets
.
* Built-in support for Microsoft Visual Studio, including generation of
.dsp, .dsw, .sln and .vcproj files.
* Reliable detection of build changes using cryptographic hashes;
optionally can configure other algorithms including traditional timestamps
.
* Support for parallel builds - can keep multiple jobs running
simultaneously regardless of directory hierarchy.
* Integrated Autoconf-like support for finding #include files, libraries,
functions and typedefs.
* Global view of all dependencies - no more multiple build passes or
reordering targets to build everything.
* Ability to share built files in a cache to speed up multiple builds.
* Designed from the ground up for cross-platform builds, and known to
work on Linux, other POSIX systems (including AIX, BSD systems,
HP/UX, IRIX and Solaris), Windows 7/8/10, MacOS, and OS/2.
* Written in Python.
Documentation Documentation
=============
Documentation for SCons is available at: Documentation for SCons is available at
http://www.scons.org/documentation.html.
http://www.scons.org/documentation.html Execution Requirements
======================
Requirements Running SCons requires Python 3.6 or higher. There should be no other
dependencies or requirements to run standard SCons.
The last release to support Python 3.5 was 4.2.0.
Some experimental features may require additional Python packages
to be installed - at the moment the Ninja feature requires the
supporting `ninja package <https://pypi.org/project/ninja/>`_.
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 ``gfortran`` (such as found
in the GNU Compiler Collection) on any other type of system. You may
override these default values by appropriate configuration of variables
in a Construction Environment, or in the case of Cygwin on a Win32 system,
by selecting the 'cygwin' platform, which will set some of those Construction
Variables for you.
Running SCons requires Python 3.5 or higher. There should be no other By default, SCons knows how to search for available programming tools on

`SCons man page <https://scons.org/doc/production/HTML/scons-man.html>`_
for details. You can override
the default SCons choices made by appropriate configuration of
construction variables.
Installation Requirements
=========================
SCons has no installation dependencies beyond a compatible version
of Python. The tools which will be used to to actually construct the
project, such as compilers, documentation production tools, etc.
should of course be installed by the appropriate means.
Getting Started Using SCons
===========================
If you're new to SCons, the first couple of chapters of the
`SCons User Guide <https://scons.org/doc/production/HTML/scons-user.html>`_
provide an excellent starting spot.
As of SCons 4.2.0 support for Python 3.5 is deprecated and will be removed Contributing to SCons
