jobslot

An implementation of the GNU make jobserver for Rust

Documentation

Why fork jobserver?

• jobserver isn't actively maintained.
• jobserver's maintainer @alexcrichton is not willing to merge PR for bug fix.
• Better performance on unix: jobserver's implementation uses std::os::unix::process::CommandExt::pre_exec, which prevents Command::spawn from using vfork on unix.

Usage

First, add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
jobslot = "0.1"
