[Scons-dev] Show source SConscript on error

[Jason Kenny]

I think an example might be useful.

Given an error people like to see stuff like this: 

scons: *** [build\windows\README.txt] Source `README' not found, needed by target `build\windows\README.txt':
  File "C:\Some\source\location\Sconscript", line 3:
    Env.FooBuilder(“out”,[‘README.txt’])


Have an item on my list in Parts to muck up the Scons builder code to get this type of error message out… 

Better error messages in Scons would be a great thing 😊

I want SCons to show me the line in SConscript file where
this source 'README' dependency was defined.

Anatoly,
Not exactly sure what you would like SCons to do differently?
There's a message and a non-zero exit status.

Hi,

I was looking at this build log (see also below) https://ci.appveyor.com/project/YauhenMinsk/rhvoice/build/1.0.8
and noticed that there is no way to tell whan SConsript complains
about missing target. Do we have this info at all? If yes, why it is
not shown by default?

...
build\windows\packages\sapi\RHVoice-voice-Russian-Irina.nsi
scons: *** [build\windows\README.txt] Source `README' not found, needed by target `build\windows\README.txt'.
scons: building terminated because of errors.
Command exited with code 2
