SYNCHRONIZE_BLOCK

  • Article

The SYNCHRONIZE_ BLOCK macro affects Pass 1 of the build process. During this pass, the macro causes the Build utility to build a certain directory first.

When the Build utility finds this macro in a Sources file, it will stop building all other directories until this directory is built. To use this macro, specify the following in your Sources file:

SYNCHRONIZE_BLOCK=1

For more information, see Building on a Multiprocessor Computer.

Note  It is strongly recommend that you do not use this macro. To synchronize the build process during Pass 1, use the BUILD_CONSUMES and BUILD_PRODUCES macros instead
