Added link for compiler porters
= Product Documentation =
The project has been focused on getting distcc to work with Mozilla, mainly because Mozilla uses GNU Makefiles which can run concurrent jobs. We have started a [[distcc_mozilla_tutorial| tutorial]] in order to help testers/developers. We have also written documentation for others who might wish to [[Adding Compilers to Distcc|add support to distcc for other compilers]] (e.g., Java, C#, etc.).

I've been doing a lot of #ifdef conditions, just to get it to compile (although we will be doing windows threads instead of fork, this is just a step). But now I'm stuck on the function fcntl(). It's a POSIX function, and it has POSIX flags, but some of the flags don't seem to exist in Windows. I don't have enough information to know how important the function is, and if we can just skip it.
 
And I forgot my power cable in a certain building, and laptop is running out of battery!

There are some header files in distcc that have the same name as some of the standard header files in /usr/include. One file is rpc.h, which is being #included by "sockets.h". Since we don't need sockets.h, this shouldn't be a problem in ''this case''. But that is still something we have to watch out for.
 
Bah! windows.h #includes rpc.h, dammit.
