RTC Build System and SCons


Dominique Holzwarth (21135) | asked Jul 14 '10, 4:20 a.m.
Hi all

Has anyone some experience about using RTC together with SCons?
I have created a Build Definition that's invoking scons via command line basicly it works. However, every time I request a new build everything is getting recompiled by SCons so for some reason SCons thinks that the dependencies changed... Is this because RTC creates a new snapshot for each build or what could it be? Maybe the MD5 hashes scons creates are getting lost somehow??

Any hints are very welcome!

Thanks
Dominique

Dominique,

I don't know how SCons stores its dependency information. If it's stored in the same directories as the files, it may be getting overwritten on each build.

In the build definition's Source Control page, what setting do you have for the option to delete the load directory? Try changing it so that the contents of the load directory is preserved between builds.

Regards,
Nick
