--- Comment #7 from Martin Liška <marxin at gcc dot gnu.org> --- (In reply to Tom Stellard from comment #6) > If I have make installed on my system, but am using something else (e.g. > ninja) to build my project, will I still get parallel execution? No, we construct an artificial Make file that we pass to make. Anyway, a system w/o make is quite awkward, it's such an essential tool :)
