Is Python the right hammer for this nail? (build script) -
Currently I'm using a Windows batch file to build my software. It does things like running MSBuild, copying files, creating a zip file, running a few tests, including colonization amendment, etc.
But the problem is, batch files are bad so I want to change to something better I was planning to revive my build script in Python. Is this a clever choice? Regarding all those build systems, such as ant, skins, maven, rake, etc. Any of these would be a better option?
Note: I'm not planning to change my visual studio solution / project files. I just want to script everything that is necessary to release my software.
Edit: I have good reason to get away from the batch, that is not my question. I would like to know (for example) what SCons gives me on a normal Python script.
For a device that is scripted with Python, I think one more than SCONS Easily manage and have a more flexible build automator. Unlike Skones, Payver is designed for non-compiling-program tasks running and managing with a software project.
