Sets construction variables for file
and directory installation.

<builder name="Install">
<summary>
<para>
Installs one or more source files or directories
in the specified target,
which must be a directory.
The names of the specified source files or directories
remain the same within the destination directory. The
sources may be given as a string or as a node returned by
a builder.
</para>
<example_commands>
env.Install(target='/usr/local/bin', source=['foo', 'bar'])
</example_commands>
<para>
Note that if target paths chosen for the
&Install; builder (and the related &InstallAs; and
&InstallVersionedLib; builders) are outside the
project tree, such as in the example above,
they may not be selected for "building" by default,
since in the absence of other instructions
&scons; builds targets that are underneath the top directory
(the directory that contains the &SConstruct; file,
usually the current directory).
Use command line targets or the &Default; function
in this case.
</para>
<para>
If the <option>--install-sandbox</option> command line
option is given, the target directory will be prefixed
by the directory path specified.
This is useful to test installs without installing to
a "live" location in the system.
</para>
<para>
See also &FindInstalledFiles;.
For more thoughts on installation, see the User Guide
(particularly the section on Command-Line Targets
and the chapters on Installing Files and on Alias Targets).
</para>
</summary>
</builder>
<builder name="InstallAs">
<summary>
<para>
Installs one or more source files or directories
to specific names,
allowing changing a file or directory name
as part of the installation.
It is an error if the
target
and
source
arguments list different numbers of files or directories.
</para>
<example_commands>
env.InstallAs(target='/usr/local/bin/foo',
source='foo_debug')
env.InstallAs(target=['../lib/libfoo.a', '../lib/libbar.a'],
source=['libFOO.a', 'libBAR.a'])
</example_commands>
<para>
See the note under &Install;.
</para>
</summary>
</builder>
<builder name="InstallVersionedLib">
<summary>
<para>
Installs a versioned shared library. The symlinks appropriate to the
architecture will be generated based on symlinks of the source library.
</para>
<example_commands>
env.InstallVersionedLib(target='/usr/local/bin/foo',
source='libxyz.1.5.2.so')
</example_commands>
