In a directory, I build some ExternalProjects.
Under windows, if I use the "NMake Makefiles" generator, the build is

But if  I generate a Visual Studio solution, the external projects are build in 
parallel.
I would like to forbid the parallel build in my ExternalProjects directory. Is 
it possible to do via cmake ?

If you're doing it due to dependencies, there is the DEPENDS argument to ExternalProject_Add to declare dependencies, which will force build order.

(Or, as Sören noted, you can just turn off parallel building altogether.)

You could also artificially make each external project depend on the last one to force them to build serially without having to globally disable parallel building.
