How to build projects with make -j2 and ADD_SUBDIRECTORY?
A TOP-Level CMakeLists.txt has the following lines:
ADD_SUBDIRECTORY(libtiff) # The Library
ADD_SUBDIRECTORY(test) # Programm depending on libtiff
# more subdiretories depending on libtiff
The build-command is:
make -j2
The result is: make cancels the build of the test-subdirectory
(libtiff
isn't ready).
What can I do that the project in the test-directory waits until the
build of the libaray is done?
I guess, this is something what CMake can't do yet.
With best regards

Hi Michael
This works for me (Mac OS X 10.5.6, GNU Make 3.81). What version of
Make are you using? Reasonably recent versions of GNU Make should be
able to do exactly that, but AFAIK, nmake and MSYS Make have serious
trouble getting parallel builds right (or do not have the feature at
all).
Whether parallel builds are available is not so much a thing that
CMake handles, but the native build system (in your case some variant
of Make).
