+RULE_LAUNCH_COMPILE
+-------------------
+
+Specify a launcher for compile rules.
+
+:ref:`Makefile Generators` and the :generator:`Ninja` generator prefix
+compiler commands with the given launcher command line.
+This is intended to allow launchers to intercept build problems
+with high granularity. Other generators ignore this property
+because their underlying build systems provide no hook to wrap
+individual commands with a launcher.
