[Scons-users] scon for windows 64 bit

[Ronex Dicapriyo]

Hello,

After some futile attempts to use scons with visual c++ 2010, I yielded and tried to run the same with visual c++ 2013, In my system currently both the version of visual c++ express edition are installed. So say curretly two versions of cl.exe and other tools are present, over default location.

Visual C++ Express 2010 -> C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\bin\
Visual C++ Express 2013 -> C:\Program Files (x86)\VC\bin\

Using 2013 command prompt for 64bit, it now throes the error "cl is not recognized as internal or external command". Notably if I tries to compile a program directly it works and PATH variable is also set appropriately.

After this When I tries to use MSVC_VERSION='13.0' along with TARGET_ARCH='amd64', it shows possile value for MSVC_VERSION as ['10.0'] only, and throws warning that compiler and other tools would not set properly, with the same above error.

Am I following any wrog approach ? How multiple compiler or compiler version will get handles under windows without using any addition tool/program other than scons, python and compiler specific tools.

python, I think as suggested by Dirk in this mail-chain I should try with 
scon-local
You don't need to use scons-local.  Just download the zip or tgz (), unpack it, and run 'python setup.py install' with whatever python you have.  That's what I normally use, even on Windows.  (On other platforms it's the normal way to install -- Windows is the only one with a simplified installer, but as you've noted it's specific to 32-bit python.)
