So, what happened? I was obviously not paying attention a month ago. Basically, my story went like this. Someone at Kitware got a new dual dual core windows box. nmake is not able to do parallel builds, and the IDE builds do not do a great job of it. So, I asked him to try gmake from cygwin with the windows cmake. It failed. I sort of scratched my head, because I knew I had tested this on my machine a month ago. I even made some fixes for the cmake 2.4.1 release to support gmake from cygwin. I then found the difference was the version of gmake from cygwin. And the rest, you are all too aware of. :) BTW, gmake -j8 on the machine really rocks. It beats the MS IDE by a few minutes on a large project. -Bill _______________________________________________ Make-w32 mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/make-w32
