[Interest] Windows ARM parallel processing

[Kai Köhne]

You can use jom then: https://wiki.qt.io/Jom

Though that should be the default for Qt Creator . Check whether https://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-build-process-customizing.html#use-jom  is enabled.

Betreff: Re: [Interest] Windows ARM parallel processing

Thiago,

I’m using nmake. It was the default behaviour of the msvc kit.

Will I need to stick to nmake while using still using qmake?

In intel nmake does since to take advantage of parallel processing. What’s the difference on arm?

Thank you!

Best,
