+=== Selecting Visual Studio C++ Runtime Library ===
+The SCons build has an option to control which Visual Studio C++ Runtime
Library to use when linking V8. The possible options are `static`
(statically linked in to the V8 library) and `dynamic` (using the DLL
version). The default is `static`. The following example uses the shared
runtime library.
+{{{
+> scons msvcrt=shared
+}}}
+*NOTE:* The runtime library to use (static or shared) can be selected
independently of the type selected for the V8 library itself (also static
or shared).
+
+=== Controlling Link-time Code generation ===
+The SCons build option `msvcltcg` can be used to control whether Visual
C++ is instructed to do link-time code generation or not. The default is
`on` the it can be switched off using `off`.
+{{{
+> scons msvcltcg=off
+}}}

=== Using Visual Studio 2008 ===
As SCons version 1.0.0 does not detect Visual Studio 2008, you will need
to supply an additional `env` option to SCons. The `env` option is used to
override the environment paths SCons is using. For Visual Studio 2008 it is
required to override PATH, INCLUDE and LIB. The following example passes
these paths for a Visual Studio 2008 installation assuming that the default
installation directories have been used.

=== Running tests on Windows ===
-When running the tests using `tools\test.py` on Windows SCons is used to
build the tests written in C++. Therefore if using Visual Studio 2008 or
Visual C++ Express 2008 the additional ´env´ option have to be passed. The
script `tools\test.py` has an option `-S` to specify options which are
passed to SCons. For Visual C++ Express 2008 it will look like this..

time significally. This is useful when running the tests repeatedly.
