1JOB_POOLS 2--------- 3 4Ninja only: List of available pools. 5 6A pool is a named integer property and defines the maximum number 7of concurrent jobs which can be started by a rule assigned to the pool. 8The :prop_gbl:`JOB_POOLS` property is a semicolon-separated list of 9pairs using the syntax NAME=integer (without a space after the equality sign). 10 11For instance: 12 13.. code-block:: cmake 14 15 set_property(GLOBAL PROPERTY JOB_POOLS two_jobs=2 ten_jobs=10) 16 17Defined pools could be used globally by setting 18:variable:`CMAKE_JOB_POOL_COMPILE` and :variable:`CMAKE_JOB_POOL_LINK` 19or per target by setting the target properties 20:prop_tgt:`JOB_POOL_COMPILE` and :prop_tgt:`JOB_POOL_LINK`. 21:command:`Custom commands <add_custom_command>` and 22:command:`custom targets <add_custom_target>` can specify pools using the 23option ``JOB_POOL``. 24Using a pool that is not defined by :prop_gbl:`JOB_POOLS` causes 25an error by ninja at build time. 26 27If not set, this property uses the value of the :variable:`CMAKE_JOB_POOLS` 28variable. 29 30Build targets provided by CMake that are meant for individual interactive 31use, such as ``install``, are placed in the ``console`` pool automatically. 32
