drb wishes
----------
Key: BUILDR-182
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BUILDR-182
Project: Buildr
Issue Type: Wish
Components: Extensions
Affects Versions: 1.3.4
Reporter: Ittay Dror
Add hooks to Snapshot, so there can be better control over what tasks are
redefined in each build:
1. some tasks are defined lazily to save performance when buildr runs directly.
however, for performance reasons i don't want to define them in each subsequent
run. furthermore, some of those tasks may have logic to not execute in
subsequent builds under some circumstances.
==> add option to add tasks to the snapshot
2. some tasks may need to recreate their prerequisites in each run. for example
in C++ a library depends on the obj files from which it is linked. but in each
run the list of objects needs to be reconstructed to account for changes in the
files. this can be handled by lazily defining this list (since drb always
returns the prerequisites to their original state), yet, it may be easier if a
hook is provided that instructs drb to recreate a task completely in subsequent
runs.
