# usage:
#
# conf.env['MSVC_VERSIONS'] = ['msvc 9.0', 'msvc 8.0', 'wsdk 7.0', 'intel 11', 'PocketPC 9.0', 'Smartphone 8.0']

# obj.uselib = 'KERNEL32 USER32 GDI32'
#
# platforms and targets will be tested in the order they appear;
# the first good configuration will be used
# supported platforms :
# ia64, x64, x86, x86_amd64, x86_ia64

# compilers supported :
#  msvc       => Visual Studio, versions 7.1 (2003), 8,0 (2005), 9.0 (2008)
#  wsdk       => Windows SDK, versions 6.0, 6.1, 7.0
#  icl        => Intel compiler, versions 9,10,11
#  Smartphone => Compiler/SDK for Smartphone devices (armv4/v4i)
#  PocketPC   => Compiler/SDK for PocketPC devices (armv4/v4i)
