<cvar name="no_import_lib">
<summary>
<para>
When set to non-zero,
suppresses creation of a corresponding Windows static import lib by the
&b-link-SharedLibrary;
builder when used with
MinGW, Microsoft Visual Studio or Metrowerks.
This also suppresses creation
of an export (<filename>.exp</filename>) file
when using Microsoft Visual Studio.
</para>
</summary>
</cvar>
<cvar name="PDB">
<summary>
<para>
The Microsoft Visual C++ PDB file that will store debugging information for
object files, shared libraries, and programs. This variable is ignored by
tools other than Microsoft Visual C++.
When this variable is
defined SCons will add options to the compiler and linker command line to
cause them to generate external debugging information, and will also set up the
dependencies for the PDB file.
Example:
</para>
<example_commands>
env['PDB'] = 'hello.pdb'
</example_commands>
<para>
The Visual C++ compiler switch that SCons uses by default
to generate PDB information is <option>/Z7</option>.
This works correctly with parallel (<option>-j</option>) builds
because it embeds the debug information in the intermediate object files,
as opposed to sharing a single PDB file between multiple object files.
This is also the only way to get debug information
embedded into a static library.
Using the <option>/Zi</option> instead may yield improved
link-time performance,
although parallel builds will no longer work.
You can generate PDB files with the <option>/Zi</option>
switch by overriding the default &cv-link-CCPDBFLAGS; variable;
see the entry for that variable for specific examples.

<para>
Set to <constant>True</constant> to embed the
compiler-generated manifest

into all Windows executables and DLLs built with this environment,

This is done using &cv-link-MT; and &cv-link-MTEXECOM; and &cv-link-MTSHLIBCOM;.
See also &cv-link-WINDOWS_INSERT_MANIFEST;.

<cvar name="REGSVRFLAGS">
<summary>
<para>
Flags passed to the DLL registration program
on Windows systems when a newly-built DLL library is registered.
By default,
this includes the <option>/s</option>
that prevents dialog boxes from popping up
and requiring user attention.

<cvar name="WINDOWS_INSERT_DEF">
<summary>
<para>
If set to true,
a library build of a Windows shared library
(<filename>.dll</filename> file)
will include a reference to the corresponding
module-definition file at the same time,
if a module-definition file
is not already listed as a build target.
The name of the module-definition file will
be constructed from the base name of the library
and the &consvars;
&cv-link-WINDOWSDEFSUFFIX; and
&cv-link-WINDOWSDEFPREFIX;.
The default is to not add a module-definition file.
The module-definition file is not created by this directive,
and must be supplied by the developer.
</para>
</summary>

<cvar name="WINDOWS_INSERT_MANIFEST">
<summary>
<para>
If set to true,
&scons;
will add the manifest file
generated by Microsoft Visual C++ 8.0 and later
to the target list so &SCons; will be aware they
were generated.
In the case of an executable, the manifest file name
is constructed using
&cv-link-WINDOWSPROGMANIFESTSUFFIX; and
&cv-link-WINDOWSPROGMANIFESTPREFIX;.
In the case of a shared library, the manifest file name
is constructed using
&cv-link-WINDOWSSHLIBMANIFESTSUFFIX; and
&cv-link-WINDOWSSHLIBMANIFESTPREFIX;.
