How can I use 'SCons' with Message viewer?

Asked by Till Sachau

Hi!

I just bought the 'Message viewer'. I'm usually working with SCons, but that does not seem to work with the Viewer since no messages are shown, not even if compiler errors occur.

I didn't play an awful lot with it (just purchased it), but: is there a simple way to get this to work? (Or at least a complicated one?)

Thanks!

Messages viewer is made to work with anything that writes to stderr.
Make, for example, writes compiler outputs to stderr and everything else to stdout.
If I understand well, SCons is a build system like CMake or QMake or autotools.
Messages viewer does not use those build systems, but Makefiles generated from calling those build systems.

If on the other hand SCons fits a similar purpose like Make, then you need to be sure that it writes compiler output to stderr.

That said I have never used SCons so I cannot tell you how to use it with Messages viewer, but If you can wait a day or two, I will see what I can do to integrate it.

Thank you for buying.

I have looked at Scons and used it to build my test files.
There was a bug in Messages viewer that is now fixed.
I will submit the changed binary to Ubuntu packagers.
Please wait a few days and you will get the update.

Again, thank you for buying.
