Title: The 'Other' tab in the Global compiler settings is not compiler specific
Post by: RJP Computing on January 10, 2007, 02:58:30 pm
This is a possible bug/feature request. Is it intentional that the 'Other' tab in the 'Settings->Compiler and debugger->Global Compiler Settings' is not compiler specific?

To be clear I wanted to set the number of process for parallel builds to 2 for gcc and for VC 7.1/8.0 to only 1 because the multi processes doesn't seem to work with the pch settings. (I know that pch is only truly supported by gcc that is why I am backing the number of processes back to 1)

intentional, therefor it's called compiler-independent options ;-)

Oops missed that. :oops: Can this be added? I think it would be great to have the processes part compiler specific.

It wouldn't make any sense because this feature is provided by C::B, not any compiler. I 'm certain that whatever your original problem is, should not have anything to do with this.

You are probably right.
