[Scons-dev] SCons tools refactoring progress

[Jason Kenny]

Hi Gary,

Glad to see this getting back in gear again. What are the thoughts about the finders. I know you stated some time ago about using the finder idea I had in Parts. I was wondering had you updated the design you had to define sets of finders in some order. Something like what I had in Parts called ToolInfo. That object for me took a number of finders/scanners to find a needed path, which the toolinfo used to validate the tool existed and to provide a set of variable that needed to be setup in the environment, such as include/bin/lib/etc.. paths. I am not clear on what your intent is with the current design.

I'm just starting to get back into it. 
If you'd like to take a look at the current state of things, check out hg at bitbucket.org/garyo/scons-newtool and look in src/engine/SCons/ToolchainDesign.
The next thing on my list for it is a nice generalized executable-finder (PATH, registry, env, hard-coded, etc.)
Any feedback much appreciated!

  Vasily,


  I think Gary was working on that. Work's ongoing.

  It's not imminent to be merged into main.


  Are you volunteering to help?
  ;)

    Hi all!


    I recall there were some plans on refactoring how Tools work in SCons.

    Are there any news on that?


    Thanks,

    Vasily
