1.5 API for Parallel Builds

 (require setup/parallel-build) package: base
The setup/parallel-build library provides the parallel-compilation functionality of raco setup and raco make.

Both parallel-compile-files and parallel-compile log messages to the topic 'setup/parallel-build at the level 'info. These messages are instances of a parallel-compile-event prefab structure:

(struct parallel-compile-event (worker event) #:prefab)

The worker field is the index of the worker that the created the event. The event field is a compile-event as documented in make-compilation-manager-load/use-compiled-handler.

The parallel-compile-files utility function is used by raco make to compile a list of paths in parallel. The optional #:worker-count argument specifies the number of compile workers to spawn during parallel compilation. The compile workers are implemented as Racket places if use-places? is true, otherwise the compile workers are implemented as separate Racket processes. The callback, handler, is called with the symbol 'done as the handler-type argument for each successfully compiled file, 'output when a successful compilation produces stdout/stderr output, 'error when a compilation error has occurred, or 'fatal-error when a unrecoverable error occurs. The other arguments give more information for each status update. The return value is (void) if it was successful, or #f if there was an error.

Changed in version 7.0.0.19 of package base: Added the #:use-places? argument.

The parallel-compile function is used by raco setup to compile collections in parallel. The worker-count argument specifies the number of compilation workers to spawn during parallel compilation. The use-places? argument specified whether to use places, otherwise separate processes are used. The setup-fprintf and append-error functions communicate intermediate compilation results and errors. The collects-tree argument is a compound data structure containing an in-memory tree representation of the collects directory.

When the exn argument to append-error is a pair of strings, the first string is a long form of the error message, and the second string is a short form (omitting evaluation context information, for example).

Changed in version 6.1.1.8 of package base: Changed append-error to allow a pair of error strings.
Changed in version 7.0.0.19: Added the #:use-places? argument.
