Hi
waf have internal multithreading detection, no need add job options
That may be true, but it does support a job option. [1] I also don't get the point of this topic, since $MAKEFLAGS simply contains a hyphen, a character, and a number: --parellel-jobs=${MAKEFLAGS/-j} In fact, the job option WAF supports has a shorthand -j, making it directly compatible with Autotools. I maintain several WAF-based packages, take a look at them. As for SCONS, I don't recall appending $MAKEFLAGS to any of the builds I have been exposed to, but I do see it being used that way in our repos. So any other real-world cases where the build system makes this difficult? [1] https://code.google.com/p/waf/wiki/EnvironmentVariables -- GPG/PGP ID: C0711BF1
