[Scons-dev] method for calling SCons as a library?

[Daniel Holth]

My SCons-powerd Python packaging tool needs to report the name of the file
it built from an API. Here's the method I've come up with. Is there a
better way to figure out what was actually built?

0. Update sys.argv[] to pass desired arguments to SCons
1. Call SCons.Script.Main.main()
2. Catch SystemExit
3. Examine SCons.Script.DEFAULT_TARGETS
4. return interesting target name
5. Exit Python

Thanks.
