Builds a .dvi file from a .tex, .ltx or .latex input file. If the source file suffix is .tex, &scons; will examine the contents of the file; if the string \documentclass or \documentstyle is found, the file is assumed to be a LaTeX file and the target is built by invoking the &cv-LATEXCOM; command line; otherwise, the &cv-TEXCOM; command line is used. If the file is a LaTeX file, the &b-DVI; builder method will also examine the contents of the .aux file and invoke the &cv-BIBTEX; command line if the string bibdata is found, and will examine the contents .log file and re-run the &cv-LATEXCOM; command if the log file says it is necessary. The suffix .dvi (hard-coded within TeX itself) is automatically added to the target if it is not already present. Examples: # builds from aaa.tex env.DVI(target = 'aaa.dvi', source = 'aaa.tex') # builds bbb.dvi env.DVI(target = 'bbb', source = 'bbb.ltx') # builds from ccc.latex env.DVI(target = 'ccc.dvi', source = 'ccc.latex') Builds a .pdf file from a .dvi input file (or, by extension, a .tex, .ltx, or .latex input file). The suffix specified by the &cv-PDFSUFFIX; construction variable (.pdf by default) is added automatically to the target if it is not already present. Example: # builds from aaa.tex env.PDF(target = 'aaa.pdf', source = 'aaa.tex') # builds bbb.pdf from bbb.dvi env.PDF(target = 'bbb', source = 'bbb.dvi') A function used to produce variables like &cv-_CPPINCFLAGS;. It takes four or five arguments: a prefix to concatenate onto each element, a list of elements, a suffix to concatenate onto each element, an environment for variable interpolation, and an optional function that will be called to transform the list before concatenation. env['_CPPINCFLAGS'] = '$( ${_concat(INCPREFIX, CPPPATH, INCSUFFIX, __env__, RDirs)} $)', The name of the directory in which Configure context test files are written. The default is .sconf_temp in the top-level directory containing the SConstruct file. The name of the Configure context log file. The default is config.log in the top-level directory containing the SConstruct file. A platform independent specification of C preprocessor definitions. The definitions will be added to command lines through the automatically-generated &cv-_CPPDEFFLAGS; construction variable (see below), which is constructed according to the type of value of &cv-CPPDEFINES;: If &cv-CPPDEFINES; is a string, the values of the &cv-CPPDEFPREFIX; and &cv-CPPDEFSUFFIX; construction variables will be added to the beginning and end. # Will add -Dxyz to POSIX compiler command lines, # and /Dxyz to Microsoft Visual C++ command lines. env = Environment(CPPDEFINES='xyz') If &cv-CPPDEFINES; is a list, the values of the &cv-CPPDEFPREFIX; and &cv-CPPDEFSUFFIX; construction variables will be appended to the beginning and end of each element in the list. If any element is a list or tuple, then the first item is the name being defined and the second item is its value: # Will add -DB=2 -DA to POSIX compiler command lines, # and /DB=2 /DA to Microsoft Visual C++ command lines. env = Environment(CPPDEFINES=[('B', 2), 'A']) If &cv-CPPDEFINES; is a dictionary, the values of the &cv-CPPDEFPREFIX; and &cv-CPPDEFSUFFIX; construction variables will be appended to the beginning and end of each item from the dictionary. The key of each dictionary item is a name being defined to the dictionary item's corresponding value; if the value is None, then the name is defined without an explicit value. Note that the resulting flags are sorted by keyword to ensure that the order of the options on the command line is consistent each time &scons; is run. # Will add -DA -DB=2 to POSIX compiler command lines, # and /DA /DB=2 to Microsoft Visual C++ command lines. env = Environment(CPPDEFINES={'B':2, 'A':None}) An automatically-generated construction variable containing the C preprocessor command-line options to define values. The value of &cv-_CPPDEFFLAGS; is created by appending &cv-CPPDEFPREFIX; and &cv-CPPDEFSUFFIX; to the beginning and end of each directory in &cv-CPPDEFINES;. The prefix used to specify preprocessor definitions on the C compiler command line. This will be appended to the beginning of each definition in the &cv-CPPDEFINES; construction variable when the &cv-_CPPDEFFLAGS; variable is automatically generated. The suffix used to specify preprocessor definitions on the C compiler command line. This will be appended to the end of each definition in the &cv-CPPDEFINES; construction variable when the &cv-_CPPDEFFLAGS; variable is automatically generated. An automatically-generated construction variable containing the C preprocessor command-line options for specifying directories to be searched for include files. The value of &cv-_CPPINCFLAGS; is created by appending &cv-INCPREFIX; and &cv-INCSUFFIX; to the beginning and end of each directory in &cv-CPPPATH;. The list of directories that the C preprocessor will search for include directories. The C/C++ implicit dependency scanner will search these directories for include files. Don't explicitly put include directory arguments in CCFLAGS or CXXFLAGS because the result will be non-portable and the directories will not be searched by the dependency scanner. Note: directory names in CPPPATH will be looked-up relative to the SConscript directory when they are used in a command. To force &scons; to look-up a directory relative to the root of the source tree use #: env = Environment(CPPPATH='#/include') The directory look-up can also be forced using the &Dir;() function: include = Dir('include') env = Environment(CPPPATH=include) The directory list will be added to command lines through the automatically-generated &cv-_CPPINCFLAGS; construction variable, which is constructed by appending the values of the &cv-INCPREFIX; and &cv-INCSUFFIX; construction variables to the beginning and end of each directory in &cv-CPPPATH;. Any command lines you define that need the CPPPATH directory list should include &cv-_CPPINCFLAGS;: env = Environment(CCCOM="my_compiler $_CPPINCFLAGS -c -o $TARGET $SOURCE") A function that converts a string into a Dir instance relative to the target being built. A function that converts a list of strings into a list of Dir instances relative to the target being built. The list of suffixes of files that will be scanned for imported D package files. The default list is: ['.d'] A function that converts a string into a File instance relative to the target being built. The list of suffixes of files that will be scanned for IDL implicit dependencies (#include or import lines). The default list is: [".idl", ".IDL"] The prefix used to specify an include directory on the C compiler command line. This will be appended to the beginning of each directory in the &cv-CPPPATH; and &cv-FORTRANPATH; construction variables when the &cv-_CPPINCFLAGS; and &cv-_FORTRANINCFLAGS; variables are automatically generated. The suffix used to specify an include directory on the C compiler command line. This will be appended to the end of each directory in the &cv-CPPPATH; and &cv-FORTRANPATH; construction variables when the &cv-_CPPINCFLAGS; and &cv-_FORTRANINCFLAGS; variables are automatically generated. A function to be called to install a file into a destination file name. The default function copies the file into the destination (and sets the destination file's mode and permission bits to match the source file's). The function takes the following arguments: def install(dest, source, env): dest is the path name of the destination file. source is the path name of the source file. env is the construction environment (a dictionary of construction values) in force for this file installation. An automatically-generated construction variable containing the linker command-line options for specifying directories to be searched for library. The value of &cv-_LIBDIRFLAGS; is created by appending &cv-LIBDIRPREFIX; and &cv-LIBDIRSUFFIX; to the beginning and end of each directory in &cv-LIBPATH;. The prefix used to specify a library directory on the linker command line. This will be appended to the beginning of each directory in the &cv-LIBPATH; construction variable when the &cv-_LIBDIRFLAGS; variable is automatically generated. The suffix used to specify a library directory on the linker command line. This will be appended to the end of each directory in the &cv-LIBPATH; construction variable when the &cv-_LIBDIRFLAGS; variable is automatically generated. An automatically-generated construction variable containing the linker command-line options for specifying libraries to be linked with the resulting target. The value of &cv-_LIBFLAGS; is created by appending &cv-LIBLINKPREFIX; and &cv-LIBLINKSUFFIX; to the beginning and end of each filename in &cv-LIBS;. The prefix used to specify a library to link on the linker command line. This will be appended to the beginning of each library in the &cv-LIBS; construction variable when the &cv-_LIBFLAGS; variable is automatically generated. The suffix used to specify a library to link on the linker command line. This will be appended to the end of each library in the &cv-LIBS; construction variable when the &cv-_LIBFLAGS; variable is automatically generated. The list of directories that will be searched for libraries. The implicit dependency scanner will search these directories for include files. Don't explicitly put include directory arguments in &cv-LINKFLAGS; or &cv-SHLINKFLAGS; because the result will be non-portable and the directories will not be searched by the dependency scanner. Note: directory names in LIBPATH will be looked-up relative to the SConscript directory when they are used in a command. To force &scons; to look-up a directory relative to the root of the source tree use #: env = Environment(LIBPATH='#/libs') The directory look-up can also be forced using the &Dir;() function: libs = Dir('libs') env = Environment(LIBPATH=libs) The directory list will be added to command lines through the automatically-generated &cv-_LIBDIRFLAGS; construction variable, which is constructed by appending the values of the &cv-LIBDIRPREFIX; and &cv-LIBDIRSUFFIX; construction variables to the beginning and end of each directory in &cv-LIBPATH;. Any command lines you define that need the LIBPATH directory list should include &cv-_LIBDIRFLAGS;: env = Environment(LINKCOM="my_linker $_LIBDIRFLAGS $_LIBFLAGS -o $TARGET $SOURCE") A list of one or more libraries that will be linked with any executable programs created by this environment. The library list will be added to command lines through the automatically-generated &cv-_LIBFLAGS; construction variable, which is constructed by appending the values of the &cv-LIBLINKPREFIX; and &cv-LIBLINKSUFFIX; construction variables to the beginning and end of each filename in &cv-LIBS;. Any command lines you define that need the LIBS library list should include &cv-_LIBFLAGS;: env = Environment(LINKCOM="my_linker $_LIBDIRFLAGS $_LIBFLAGS -o $TARGET $SOURCE") If you add a File object to the &cv-LIBS; list, the name of that file will be added to &cv-_LIBFLAGS;, and thus the link line, as is, without &cv-LIBLINKPREFIX; or &cv-LIBLINKSUFFIX;. For example: env.Append(LIBS=File('/tmp/mylib.so')) In all cases, scons will add dependencies from the executable program to all the libraries in this list. The prefix used for PDF file names. The suffix used for PDF file names. A function that converts a string into a list of Dir instances by searching the repositories.
