[cmake-developers] [SOLVED] Parallel build of cmake-2.8.3 works for both the "MinGW Makefiles" and "MSYS Makefiles" generators on the wine platform if you avoid using the standalone install target

[Alan W. Irwin]

As hoped for from the Linux platform tests, for the "MSYS Makefiles"
generator on the wine platform, the combination of

make -j4 >& make.out
make -j4 install >& make_install.out

for the cmake-2.8.3 build works without duplicate linking or any other issue.

So the answer to Bill's question about whether parallel builds work
for "MSYS Makefiles" is "Yes".

And similarly I got good parallel build results for cmake for the
"MinGW Makefiles" generator on the wine platform if I avoid the
standalone install target as above but using the mingw32-make command.

So for both the Linux and wine platforms for all make-related
generators the only remaining issue is the important bug that the
parallel builds do not work correctly for the standalone install
target.

Do the CMake developers want a formal bug report or is the fix for
this bug so obvious and trivial it can just be committed immediately
without wasting time on bug triage and/or losing the bug in
the noise of all the other bug reports?
