VS_NO_COMPILE_BATCHING — CMake 3.29.5 Documentation

# VS_NO_COMPILE_BATCHING

Added in version 3.24.

Turn off compile batching for the target. Usually MSBuild calls the compiler with multiple c/cpp files and compiler starts subprocesses for each file to make the build parallel. If you want compiler to be invoked with one file at a time set `VS_NO_COMPILE_BATCHING` to ON. If this flag is set MSBuild will call compiler with one c/cpp file at a time. Useful when you want to use tool that replaces the compiler, for example some build caching tool.

This property is initialized by the `CMAKE_VS_NO_COMPILE_BATCHING` variable if it is set when a target is created.

## Example

This shows setting the property for the target `foo`.

    add_library(foo SHARED foo.cpp)
    set_property(TARGET foo PROPERTY VS_NO_COMPILE_BATCHING ON)
