Mac OS and distributed compile

Is there an alternative to distcc on Mac OS X Lion?

Apple recently removed distcc from Xcode. It's a feature I use a lot. If I want to update to the latest version of Xcode I will have to give it up.

Do you know of any alternative software that would allow me to distribute compilation over LAN (preferably directly from Xcode)?

Solution 1:

This question has been asked on Stack Overflow also - it seem that it has simply been removed with no word from Apple, no response in the developer forums (surprise!) and no word about what might replace it.

I can't find any discussion in the LLVM project about a future distributed approach either.

Can you share any information about what you are compiling? I'm curious because I generally only do small apps.

Solution 2:

You might be out of luck on this one. If your not trying to run the latest iOS SDK with Xcode 4, you may want to try installing a XCode 3 (i think it goes up to iOS 4.2) or XCode 4 separately with a different path and using it's distributed build capability -- although I think doing this might be more trouble than it's worth.
