scons uses the Microsoft-provided vswhere to look for the compiler for
versions where that works.

not entirely sure what your question is because the term SDK is used so
liberally in the Windows world... I have dozens of things labeled SDK on
my one "real" machine. SCons does search for an "SDK" but I'm not
actually sure what it does with that information.  But if you're just
looking for where the compiler is, this simple stanza should work:


env = Environment()
compiler = env['CC']
print(env.WhereIs(compiler))

you need to do this on an instantiated environment so scons will have
gone through the tool setup process.
