Parallel builds: linker and compiler start at same time
« on: March 02, 2008, 09:10:49 am »
I set number of processor to 2 at GCC compiler options. When I change one source file and start to build, I see two messages at once:
Quote
Compiling: some_source.cpp
Linking executable: some_exe.exe
It looks like linker and compiler start at same time. Is this bug or not?

PS: C::B 4893, WinXP SP2, Core 2 Duo

No, the 2nd message is displayed but actually waits for the 1st to finish.
Be patient!
This bug will be fixed soon...

May be better to show linker message after compile process have completed?
