4.1.2.5 Install Task

The install task is not built-in to Rscons but rather is just a convention for the build script author to use. The suggested use is for the install task to invoke any Install or InstallDirectory builders to install items into the specified installation directory.

The install shortcut method can be used. For example:

install do
  env.Install("${prefix}/bin", "app.exe")
  env.Install("${prefix}/share", "share")
end
