JOB_POOLS --------- Ninja only: List of available pools. A pool is a named integer property and defines the maximum number of concurrent jobs which can be started by a rule assigned to the pool. The :prop_gbl:`JOB_POOLS` property is a semicolon-separated list of pairs using the syntax NAME=integer (without a space after the equality sign). For instance: .. code-block:: cmake set_property(GLOBAL PROPERTY JOB_POOLS two_jobs=2 ten_jobs=10) Defined pools could be used globally by setting :variable:`CMAKE_JOB_POOL_COMPILE` and :variable:`CMAKE_JOB_POOL_LINK` or per target by setting the target properties :prop_tgt:`JOB_POOL_COMPILE` and :prop_tgt:`JOB_POOL_LINK`. If not set, this property uses the value of the :variable:`CMAKE_JOB_POOLS` variable. Build targets provided by CMake that are meant for individual interactive use, such as ``install``, are placed in the ``console`` pool automatically.
