MultiProcessorCompilation (/MP) not supported in GYP for MS Visual Studio Projects #452

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Add the following to a gyp file to set multi-processor compilation.
        'msvs_settings': {
          'VCCLCompilerTool': {
            'MultiProcessorCompilation': 'true',
          },
        },
2. Process the gyp file to create a Visual Studio 2012 project

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected: The project is created and the /MP option is set and works in Visual 
Studio or MSBuild.

Currently you see the following warning
"Warning: unrecognized setting VCCLCompilerTool/MultiProcessorCompilation while 
converting to MSBuild."

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Microsoft Visual Studio 2012. GYP revision 1876

Please provide any additional information below.
I have attached a patch that seems to address the issue. I think this option is 
supported in both VS and MSBuild since VS 2008 but am not sure, so backward 
compatibility could be an issue.
