Previous: Python
SCons uses MD5 signatures to check dependencies rather than
timestamps. This improves dependency checking by:
- Ensuring updated build if the MD5 signatures changes, which
occurs when any apcect of a file changes; and
- Including the build rules in the dependency check, so changing parameters in the build rule
updates the MD5 signature.
