NAME

       sconsign - print SCons .sconsign file information

SYNOPSIS

       sconsign [options...] file [...]

DESCRIPTION

       The sconsign command displays the contents of one or more .sconsign files specified by the user.

       By default, sconsign dumps the entire contents of the specified file(s). Each entry is printed in the
       following format:

       file: signature timestamp length implicit_dependency_1: signature timestamp length implicit_dependency_2:
       signature timestamp length action_signature [action string]

       None is printed in place of any missing timestamp, bsig, or csig values for any entry or any of its
       dependencies. If the entry has no implicit dependencies, or no build action, the lines are simply
       omitted.

       By default, sconsign assumes that any file arguments that end with a .dbm suffix contains signature
       entries for more than one directory (that is, was specified by the SConsignFile () function). Any file
       argument that does not end in .dbm is assumed to be a traditional .sconsign file containing the signature
       entries for a single directory. An explicit format may be specified using the -f or --file= options.

OPTIONS

       Various options control what information is printed and the format:

       -a, --act, --action
           Prints the build action information for all entries or the specified entries.

       -c, --csig
           Prints the content signature (csig) information for all entries or the specified entries.

       -d DIRECTORY, --dir=DIRECTORY
           When the signatures are being read from a .dbm file, or the -f dbm or --format=dbm options are used,
           prints information about only the signatures for entries in the specified DIRECTORY.

       -e ENTRY, --entry=ENTRY
           Prints information about only the specified ENTRY. Multiple -e options may be used, in which case
           information about each ENTRY is printed in the order in which the options are specified on the
           command line.

       -f FORMAT, --format=FORMAT
           The file(s) to be printed are in the specified FORMAT. Legal values are dbm (the DBM format used when
           the SConsignFile() function is used) or sconsign (the default format used for an individual .sconsign
           file in each directory).

       -h, --help
           Prints a help message and exits.

       -i, --implicit
           Prints the list of cached implicit dependencies for all entries or the the specified entries.

       --raw
           Prints a pretty-printed representation of the raw Python dictionary that holds build information
           about individual entry (both the entry itself or its implicit dependencies). An entry's build action
           is still printed in its usual format.

       -r, --readable
           Prints timestamps in a human-readable string, enclosed in single quotes.

       -t, --timestamp
           Prints the timestamp information for all entries or the specified entries.

       -v, --verbose
           Prints labels identifying each field being printed.

ENVIRONMENT

       SCONS_LIB_DIR
           Specifies the directory that contains the SCons Python module directory (e.g.
           /home/aroach/scons-src-0.01/src/engine). on the command line.
