Builders

• LyxBuilder: Convert .lyx files to .tex. And teach PDF to understand .lyx files.

• ReplacementBuilder: for when you need to take a *.in file and replace some variables in it, such as pkg-config .pc files or DBus .service files

• UsingCodeGenerators: how to build an application and then use that application to generate other files

• PythonExtensions: how to build python extension modules using SCons Swig & Boost

• PyrexPythonExtensions: how to build pyrex python extension modules using SCons

• BuildNumberProcessing: you have a build number or version number that needs to be included in the link

• UsingCompilerBuilt asks about building a compiler/tool which is then used to build the application.

• NasmBuilder: how to compile nasm source files

• RpcBuilder: how to compile RPC protocol sources

• CorbaBuilder: Builder for orbix corba idl generated C++ files.

• CorbaTaoBuilder: Builder for tao corba idl generated C++ files.

• AntlrBuilder: Builder for antlr to create targets that Scons can use

• RunningConfigureAndMake: how to use SCons to run configure and make, as part of migrating from Makefiles

• AccumulateBuilder: builder which "collects" files and/or directories for easy tarring/zipping for distribution

• UicImageEmbedder: builder which generates an image collection by embedding image files into a c++ sourcefile

• SubstInFileBuilder: provides TOOL_SUBST, which substitutes values from a dictionary into a file. Can be used for autotools-like configure substitution or other purposes.

• SubstInFileBuilder2: provides a slightly different implementation of SubstInFile that substitutes values from the environment into a file.

• GenericSubstBuilder: Provides a powerful generic substitution mechanism and two helpers for regular files and headers.

• DistTarBuilder: builds a tar file with an internal directory structure

• DoxygenBuilder: generates doxygen docs automatically scanning for dependencies

• CsharpBuilder: a builder to support C# using Mono, mcs, etc.

• SwigBuilder: extra stuff about building SWIG beyond what's currently built-in.

• NsisBuilder: see NsisSconsTool

• EiffelStudioTool: Builder tool for the Eiffel programming language (EiffelStudio).

• GchBuilder: Builder for gcc's precompiled headers

• EnvValue: A value node which substitutes variables from the environment

• CombineBuilder: Small Builder to include several c/c++ source files into one file

• ArchiveBuilder: Builder to make archive (tar.gz, tar.bz2 or zip) in a simple way

• GhcBuilder: Builder for the Haskell programming language.

• CxxTestBuilder: Integrate CxxTest unit testing framework into scons, together with a 'scons check' target. (make check clone from autotools)

• ReStructuredTextBuilder: produces HTML or LaTeX output from reStructuredText input

• CheetahBuilder: compiles and fills Cheetah templates

• SconsDotNet - using SCons to build CoctaThorpe and VbDotNet

• InstallFiles - Recursively scan the source for files to install according to glob and exclude patterns

• ProtocBuilder - Generates Protocol Buffers target files from .proto source.

• PyuicBuilder - Generates PyQt Python files from QtDesigner .ui source.

• MsvcIncrementalLinking - Replaces the Program and SharedLibrary builders to support Microsoft Visual C++ incremental linking.

• StaticPicLibrary - a builder like StaticLibrary but aiming to place position independant code (pic) in the library built

• Download- & UnpackBuilder - two correspondent builders, that can download and unpack a file (eg tar.gz / tar.bz2), usefull for installing libraries to a project

Tools for specific librairies

• Qt4Tool: David García Garzón has been working on a Qt4 tool with much success

• CheckBoostVersion: Boost does not provide pkg-config file so we need to check its version by other means
