== Project Details ==

Extending Mozilla (and others :) ) is interested in speeding up their builds by using a distributed compiler (distcc). The problem is that distcc only works with gcc but not with the msvc compiler (cl).  The plan has two stages:# change distcc to use vtables to support multiple compilers# add cl support Initially, though gcc is still the only we planned to use two vtables (one for distcc and another for distccd) to keep track of which compiler supportedspecific operation to use when. However that bombed out so we're currently using a single vtable.  We have kept the two vtable branch because we actually got a somewhat running and functional function for extracting CL options. Because lot of the cl specific stuff done (before we realized we missed some functions that are called both distcc and the daemon, two vtables ). == The First Patch (Oops) == This is was not going released to workthe distcc mailing list. But Tom is overseeing the operation This has a few functions missing. It should be ignored and we'll be re-releasing a working version of getting distcc to use one vtablethis soon.
