Hi,<br>
<br>
I am testing distcc with a small project using Makefiles, and basically I have a rule to compile the source files like:<br>
<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Consolas"><br>
$(OBJ_DIR)/%.o : $(OBJ_DIR)/%.c<br>
gcc -Wall -c $< -o $@</span><br>
<br>
and then from what I’ve seen, to use distcc is just a matter of adding “distcc” as a prefix, so my recipe changed to:<br>
<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Consolas">$(OBJ_DIR)/%.o : $(OBJ_DIR)/%.c<br>
distcc gcc -Wall -c $< -o $@</span><br>
<br>
However, I keep getting errors, and I don’t know what exactly I am doing wrong.</p>

I posted this question in StackOverflow ( <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/60238207/configuring-distcc-for-makefiles">
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/60238207/configuring-distcc-for-makefiles</a> ), but looks like the distcc community is not that active. So, I am wondering if you can help me out.<br>
<br>
One additional test I did was to use CMake to create the makefiles and it worked using distcc, then I looked the generated makefiles but I don’t see why it works while my Makefile doesn’t.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Berthin</p>
