So I think I found the issue. When the include directories are specified via the network path ( \\machine\dir\ ) vs. a drive letter ( N:\dir ) ninja always thinks they are out of date. This is a pretty big hurdle for us since our toolchain files can be mapped to different drives for different users so our builds reference the network paths.
This seems like a bug in ninja, but it could also be a problem with the Windows APIs used to get the information. Any thoughts? -Kris -----Original Message----- From: Eric Noulard [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, August 14, 2012 2:53 PM To: Malfettone, Kris Cc: David Cole; [email protected] Subject: Re: [CMake] Ninja on windows ( latest ninja from git, cmake 2.8.9 ) 2012/8/14 Malfettone, Kris <[email protected]>: > So I found the "-d explain" option of ninja and it says that it thinks > my boost libraries / other library includes are "dirty".

If those two machines have time discrepancy (no time synchronization) then the file on the network share may appear to be "in the future" of your local file, your build tree is local right? Just try to check the date on the network file server w.r.t. to the time on your local machine. or copy the file locally and retry. -- Erk Le gouvernement représentatif n'est pas la démocratie -- http://www.le-message.org ________________________________ IMPORTANT: The information contained in this email and/or its attachments is confidential.
