[Scons-dev] SConf description

[William Deegan]

Anatoly,

I still don’t understand.
Are you asking a question?
Or making  a statement?
If either what is the question/statement?

Sorry for not being clear. This is a new description that I wrote. I lack experience in both Autotools and SConf, so it is my best understanding what SConf does and I like to make sure that it is accurate. It can be that I've missed something or put things wrong.

If so, in what way?

Your email is not clear.

Hi,

While looking at the SConf code I've tried to explain what does "Autoconf-like configuration support" means. It would be nice if you can check that description is accurate:


"""SCons.SConf

Autoconf-like configuration support.

In other words, this package allows to run series of tests to detect
capabilities of current system and generate config files (header files
in C/C++) that turn on system-specific options and optimizations.

For example, it is possible to detect if optional libraries are present
on current system and generate config that makes compiler include them.
C compilers do not have ability to catch ImportError if some library is
not found, so these checks should be done externally.
