Paul Martz, Mike Wittman (and others)
Two points to ponder
1: VS8 Express IDE parallels up builds when it can - eg: an output example
3>Core osgUtil - 0 error(s), 0 warning(s)
4>------ Build started: Project: Core osgText, Configuration: Debug
Static
Win32 ------
5>------ Build started: Project: Core osgGA, Configuration: Debug Static
Win32 ------
4>Compiling...
5>Compiling...
5>AnimationPathManipulator.cpp
I have a Pentium D(ual core) system running WinXP SP2.
2. Apart from a binary release build, who would normally want to perform a
simultaneous parallel debug and release build?

I think you are understanding the situation correctly.
However, I have been meaning to (and haven't had the time to yet) create a
simple batch file that fires off an entire solution build from the command
line, one command for Debug and one for Release. Seems like I ought to be
able to CVS update from this batch file as well. Then I can just set it up
to run overnight and I don't really care if it runs in parallel or not.
One problem with this approach (which is not an issue if I could just use
batch builds) is that it comes to a grinding halt if the build fails for any
reason. So I'll need to be sure I have all the 3rd party dependencies in
place so that all plugins build, even the ones I don't necessarily care
about.
This should not be this painful! :-(
