Software News   Software News : GNU make including parallel compile
   posted by ssolie on 10-May-2006 3:41:05 (2005 reads)
I've made some additional fixes to the GNU make which is included in the OS4 SDK thanks to some feedback:

3.81rc2-6
- fixed readme typo (thanks David Rey)
- fixed error stream synchronization issue (thanks Thomas Hoffmann)


3.81rc2-5
- compiled with SDK 51.22
- updated to clib2 1.200
- stderr stream is utilized again when executing commands (thanks Thomas Hoffmann)

Remember that you can speed up most compiles just by using -j2 (--jobs=2).

You may also want to consider applying some of the advice in Recursive Make Considered Harmful to your projects. I've done some experiments and by eliminating recursive make calls I can now use parallel make even more effectively.

Great stuff. I don't yet use OS4.0 as a build platform myself, but I know many will appreciate your continued work.

Good paper. You might consider posting a link on e.g. utilitybase too.

Thanks Steven!

I'm with Yak, waiting for some hardware to start development.

Been paying into Jamie's AVD suite for quite some time now, nothing to run it on. Rather annoying...
