Setting default make options for Qt Creator?


How can i override default make parameters , which is:

make -w

Each time i create a project , i had to modify project settings , adding -j4 to make parameters.

Can i set make -w -j4 by default ?

EDIT

The best way to do this is setting MAKEFLAGS environment variable , i'm picking the only answer as the best only to shut this thread down.

To set this for UNIX, modify the *.desktop file of Qt Creator , prefix the line entitled Exec= with env MAKEFLAGS=-j4 , but be aware that you won't be able to cease building in QtCreator immediately after setting to multithread.


Solution

  • In the qtcreator go to the "Projects tab" and set "Make arguments" as you like: enter image description here
