The compiler rules only consider precompiled headers in the same product,
because different products potentially use different compiler flags, leading to
incompatibilities. I think the only way to share them between products is to
have a rule that makes a copy. For instance:
Product {
name: "pch_provider"
type: "cpp_pch"
Group {
name: "Precompiled Headers"
files: "precompiled-header.h"
fileTags: "cpp_pch_src"
}
Export {
Rule {
inputsFromDependencies: "cpp_pch"
Artifact { filePath: input.fileName; fileTags: "cpp_pch" }
prepare: {
var cmd = new JavaScriptCommand();
cmd.description = "pulling in pch file";
cmd.sourceCode = function() { File.copy(input.filePath,
output.filePath); };
return cmd;
}
}
}
Then add a dependency to this product to all the applications.
It's probably only worth it if compilation of the precompiled header is
particularly expensive.
