Is distccd running on localhost? On an accessible port?
Do you mean do I have the Xcode prefs set up to allow builds to be
distributed to the host machine? Yes. High priority.
Is the $DISTCC_HOSTS environment variable or the $DISTCC_DIR/hosts
file
configured properly?
Have you tried "masquerade mode"?
Any or all of the above may be circumventing Xcode's own
distributed-build
capability, but it may also be that Xcode is just using a config that
excludes localhost, which may be easily remedied by config'ing distcc
manually.
Damn it Jim, I'm a developer, not a doctor. I want to click a button
that says "distributes builds" and click another button that says
"use all available machines on the network". I don't want to read a
bunch of low-level reference manuals or have to become a Unix expert.
I already have enough stuff to do.
I remember a few weeks ago when I got my Mac Pro and was so excited
that my full build was now 10 minutes on it instead of 22 minutes on
2 G5's and a G4. Then I turned on distributed builds so the Intel
iMac in the other room could get in on the action. Man was I
surprised that the time went back down to about 20 minutes when I did
that. That's when I discovered that builds will *only* distribute to
the other machines and the host machine goes mostly to waste.
