How to interface Purify into Scons?

Question

I have a Makefile that has various calls to scons.

scons "--jobs=8" -f SConstruct

The SCons command generates a line similar to the following:

g++ -o buildversion.o -c -c -g -fPIC buildversion.cc

How do you interface Purify into this mix? I'm guessing that ultimately the line is suppose to look like

purify g++ -o buildversion.o -c -c -g -fPIC buildversion.cc

You might want to post your question to the SCons User mailing list ( [email protected] ). From previous threads there, I know that we have several people using Purify in SCons at their day jobs. They'll certainly know about all the "do and don't"s... — dirkbaechle, Aug 16 '14 at 08:53

You need to set the environment, CC, CXX, SHCC, SHCXX, LINK, SHLINK depending on your particular scenario, appropriately, e.g.:

import os
env = Environment(ENV = {'PATH' : os.environ.get('PATH','')},
                  LINK = "purify g++")

You'll also need to make sure that purify is in the env['ENV']['PATH'], or you specify the full path to purify – bdbaddog Dec 28 '16 at 23:52
