Unable to build jsoncpp library in redhat with scons

Question

I'm trying to build jsoncpp library in redhat with scons. I follow the instructions but get no result. I first install scons, then download the library source, decompress it and enter the directory.

Once in the library folder I've tried several options: 1)

jsoncpp-src-0.5.0 > scons SConstruct platform=linux-gcc
scons: Reading SConscript files ...
Using platform 'linux-gcc-4.8.1'
LD_LIBRARY_PATH = /work/gcsadm/ext/ACE+TAO/lib/linux:/work/dguerra/tests/lib/linux:/work/dguerra/examples/lib/linux:/work/dguerra/lib/linux:/work/gcsadm/lib/linux:/usr/local/lib64:/usr/lib64:/work/gcsadm/ext/CorbaScript/lib:/usr/local/ostoreBase/ostore/lib:/work/gcsadm/ext/gsl/lib/linux:/work/gcsadm/ext/fitsio/lib/linux:/work/gcsadm/ext/sla/lib/linux:/work/gcsadm/ext/wcs/lib/linux:/work/gcsadm/ext/xpa/lib/linux:/work/gcsadm/ext/tcsPK/lib/linux:/work/gcsadm/ext/jsoncpp/lib/linux:/work/gcsadm/ext/mysql-connector/lib/linux:/usr/local/bin:libs/linux-gcc-4.8.1
Building using PLATFORM = linux-gcc-4.8.1
scons: done reading SConscript files.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The '- W a l l' indicates that some string with content '-Wall' should have been passed as a array [ '-Wall' ]
