Hi,

With "UNIX Makefiles" I'm used to being able to cd into a subdirectory containing e.g. a C++ source file for which I need to examine the pre-processed source and typing something like, "make MyClass.i" I can also compile (for fast development cycle and clarity purposes) a single source file and even use tab completion for targets of this nature (with shell completion suitably enabled). This is all great, and improves my productivity measurably.

Is there equivalent functionality for the Ninja generator (I'm currently using CMake 3.2.1, but could upgrade to a more recent version easily if appropriate), or can there be (even if only with the new ninja 1.6.0)? My inability to find same is pretty much the only reason I haven't abandoned make in favor of ninja entirely.

Thanks for any help,

Chris.
