Title: ¿What is ccache?
Post by: GrayFox.i0n on July 02, 2008, 07:28:31 AM

When compiling, i allways see this message:

  Should ccache support be enabled?                          no


What, exactly is ccache? should it be enabled?

Cheers!

Thanks!

"Enable ccache. This will make following compilations faster since only the modified bits of code will be recompiled."

But anyway, i download the new release everyday, delete the previous, uncompress the new release, and then configure like this:

./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-amule-gui --enable-alc --enable-alcc --enable-utf8-systray --enable-debug --disable-optimize --enable-amulecmd --enable-amule-daemon --enable-cas --enable-wxcas --enable-webserver --enable-ccache  --enable-geoip --enable-remote

But i still dont see any speed improvements.... ¿Maybe im doing something wrong?

Cheers!

Try uncompressing the new release over the old one without deleting the old one first.

Is really strange because i launch the configure command with this flags:

Code: [Select]

./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-amule-gui --enable-alc --enable-alcc --enable-utf8-systray --enable-debug --disable-optimize --enable-amulecmd --enable-amule-daemon --enable-cas --enable-wxcas --enable-webserver --enable-ccache  --enable-geoip --enable-remote
And i did not realize until now, this is the report i get:

Code: [Select]

Note this line:   Should ccache support be enabled?                          no

I think i clearly specifyed the --enable-ccache flag, but it is not enabled...... ¿Why can this happen?

Because for example you don't have ccache (http://ccache.samba.org/) installed.

Another question is: ¿Is ccache reliable?

I experienced some days ago something strange:

I compiled amule and i got an error (cant remember the text that appeared when the error happened)
I deleted my .ccache folder in mu /home and i compiled again: No error........

I think i will stop using it because i dont trust it 100%,..... am i paranoid? or was that error just a coincidence?

Cheers!  ;D
