Because you can't define the -j flag in the makefile itself; it's only recognized as an environment variable or as a command line parameter. > Actually, I think he meant: "j argument present but not set". > Such as "make -j".

It doesn't restrict how many processes it spawns, which for any sizable project means you're going to have dozens of compilers all at each others' throats. "make -j" is a bad idea and in my opinion shouldn't exist. /s/ Adam _______________________________________________ Qt-creator mailing list Qt-creator@trolltech.com http://lists.trolltech.com/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator
