Bug 1631: Default archive rules are incompatible with parallel processing. Accepted as Marked https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1631 This item is tagged for Issue 8. Add to APPLICATION USAGE (D2.1 P2952, after line 99106): It is important to be careful when using parallel execution (the -j switch) and archives. If multiple $(AR) commands run at the same time on the same archive file, they will not know about each other and can corrupt the file. If the -j option is used, it is necessary to use .WAIT in between archive member prerequisites to prevent this (see EXAMPLES). On D2.1 page 2953 line 99164 section make (EXAMPLES), change: lib: lib(file1.o) lib(file2.o) lib(file3.o) @echo lib is now up-to-date The .c.a rule is used to make file1.o, file2.o, and file3.o and insert them into lib. to: lib.a: lib.a(file1.o) .WAIT lib.a(file2.o) .WAIT lib.a(file3.o) @echo lib is now up-to-date The .c.a rule is used to make file1.o, file2.o, and file3.o and insert them into lib.a.
