Set compiler name from within Site.py

Question

Set compiler name from within Site.py

Closed this issue 11 years ago · 4 comments

I'd like to be able to define the compiler name from within a Site.py file. I auto-generate the Site.py file per OS and often I need to specify a non-default compiler (either a different version of gcc or a non-gcc compiler altogether).

Do you need to set it in Site.py or would an argument to scons work as well? I was planning on adding:
env.Replace(CXX = ARGUMENTS.get("cxx", "g++"))

Hi Magnus,
Arguments would work as well. I'm working on doing a build via rpm and
just need a way to specify the compiler from an rpm spec file. Thanks!

Hi Trevor, sorry it took a while to get this committed. The master branch has been updated as of 5d4be64.

Just use 'scons compiler=clang', etc. to switch out the compiler.
