Using the XGE Interfaces extension
package, IncrediBuild can be used to distribute execution of
make-based builds. As with all distributed IncrediBuild jobs, all
remotely performed tasks fully emulate the initiating machine's
environment and file system, eliminating the need to copy files or
install applications on remote machines.
Accelerating Make Tools Supporting Local Parallel Task
Execution
Many make tools support a mode of operation which allows execution
of several processes in parallel, taking advantage of multiple
cores/processors (for a list of common make tools supporting local
parallel task execution see this section).
Using the Automatic Interception
Interface, execution of these tools can be accelerated without
requiring any changes to the makefile content. This is achieved by
intercepting execution of specific processes run by the make tool,
and distributing their execution using the Xoreax Grid Engine.
