## Backend agnostic compile command
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A new `meson compile` command has been added to support backend agnostic
|
||
|
|
compilation. It accepts two arguments, `-j` and `-l`, which are used if
|
||
|
|
possible (`-l` does nothing with msbuild). A `-j` or `-l` value < 1 lets the
|
||
|
|
backend decide how many threads to use. For msbuild this means `-m`, for
|
||
|
|
ninja it means passing no arguments.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```console
|
||
|
|
meson builddir --backend vs
|
||
|
|
meson compile -C builddir -j0 # this is the same as `msbuild builddir/my.sln -m`
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```console
|
||
|
|
meson builddir
|
||
|
|
meson compile -C builddir -j3 # this is the same as `ninja -C builddir -j3`
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Additionally `meson compile` provides a `--clean` switch to clean the project.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A complete list of arguments is always documented via `meson compile --help`
