I don't think so, but this article claims that by specifying multiple c++ files at the same time, the Visual C++ compiler will parallelize them:<br><br><a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/601970/how-do-i-utilise-all-the-cores-for-nmake">http://stackoverflow.com/questions/601970/how-do-i-utilise-all-the-cores-for-nmake</a><br>

BTW do you know if it is possible to do a parallel build with nmake? (like -jN with GNU make)<br>
