Description chris 2002-11-22 09:54:47 UTC 
When building OOo on SMP machines or using distributed builders such as distcc,
several problems with the makefiles & build files arise.  This task is to keep
track of all of these issues.

The build problems tend to fall into these categories:

 * Projects are built too early.  These problems show up when using build -PPn
and are usually fixed by adding a dependency in prj/build.lst
 * General problems with the build system, where a particular type of file or
operation fails in multiple projects.  These show up when using dmake/build.pl
with -Pn flag, and are usually due to a problem with the makefiles in
solenv/bin/*.mk
 * Problems in one particular project.  These show up with dmake/build.pl with
-Pn, and usually need changes to the makefile.mk in the project directory.

will be re-targeted to OOo Later.
Comment 9 hjs 2006-09-15 17:38:57 UTC 
i think it's time to close this umbrella issue as multiprocess building is
common practice meanwhile.
