Conan SCons template

A template for a Conan package manager recipe, that uses SCons as its build tool instead of CMake.

This template demonstrates two different uses of SCons when writing a Conan recipe:

• Use SCons in the test_package part (the part that compiles a sample project to check that the library is correctly packaged and can be linked against)
• Use SCons to compile the library being packaged.

These two parts are independant one another. For example, it is perfectly fine to package a library built with a Makefile, and use SCons for the test_package part.

This template supports Windows (MSVC) and Linux (GCC), and it supports a release and a debug build type. The version of MSVC is hardcoded, and the coherence between the compiler setting of Conan (compiler, version and arch), and the compiler detected by SCons is not checked.

Inside the root directory, just run conan test_package or conan test_package -s build_type=Debug.
