ninja

Let's say I have a project made of several subprojects A, B, C, D... All subprojects depends on A , which changes rather frequently. Plus, there might be some further dependencies: in this example, D depends on B . Now: many people are working on these projects. The main CMakeLists.txt file should include all directories, so that the build all builds everything. But people would like also to be able to work only on one of these projects, and not having to build/install everything everytime. If I am working on D, I can easily build "only" D by calling cmake --build . --target D -- -j7 or ninja

I've found that when I delete cpp files from my project using cmake and ninja , I can't easily compile it without first completely deleting my build directory and starting from scratch. CMake and/or Ninja apparently squirrels away a number of references to all the cpp files that it compiles, even deleting the CMake cache before re-running CMake doesn't remove all the references. Is this a known issue? Is there a solution? I've occasionally just run rm $(grep -R <filename> <builddir>) , but that's a terrible kludge. EDIT: It appears I was mistaken, as I have not been able to duplicate this

Documentation mentioned to compile i have to follow this instruction for Windows: http://www.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/build-instructions-windows So i did all the steps, but the following is failing how can i resolve it? C:\tpt\depot_tools>mkdir out\Debug C:\tpt\depot_tools>ninja -C out\Debug chrome ninja: error: loading 'build.ninja': Het systeem kan het opgegeven bestand niet vinden. ninja: Entering directory `out\Debug' DONE.

There is this project kept in a git repository, which we build with cmake and ninja. We are using globbing expressions/functions to collect all the source files to be compiled. That means that every time a file is added/removed, cmake has to be called to re-parse the directories. We have seen this is bringing some time loss when somebody pulls after somebody has pushed some new file, without modifications to any of the cmake files. I say this last thing because a modification to any of the cmake files would trigger a call to cmake (by ninja), and everything would be fine. How can I obtain that
