that indicates there were no background process.

try this,

Code:
#include <stdio.h>                                                                    
int main()
{
        while(1)
        {         } return 0;
}

generate while bin from that

> ./while &
[job number]

>jobs
[job number]

Hope this is what you had asked for, if I have understood correctly Smilie

You have to be very carefull about this.

Just feeding your script with source files which need to be compiled could result in an enormous amount of processes filling up your process table.

So you have to make sure the number of compilations running is limited to a specific amount.

For the multiple compilations,

did you try the idea suggested,

running individual compilations in background.


Any problem with that approach ? Smilie

yes you can,

safer redirect both STDOUT and STDERR to log file

Code:
nohup <bin> >> logfile 2>&1 &
