RE: how to reduce X building time?

2013-03-08 Thread wolfking

Hi peter,   After reading your reply, I also googled about the autoresume. It 
seems that it works like this:In the 1st time, I entered 
./util/modular/build.sh --autoresum a.txt /usr, after it failed building,I 
did some modification, then reenter the 
./util/modular/build.sh --autoresum a.txt /usr , it shouldresume from the 
previously failed component. I hope my understanding is right.

 use --autoresume instead of -r

That's correct. --autoresume writes the list of modules into the file
provided (a.txt in your case) and will pick up from there again

Cheers,
