Hi,
I have a script where I tell ctest how to build my xcode project using
xcodebuild and send the results to our dashboard. However, I have noticed that
ctest_build is much much slower than when I am building my project manually
with Xcode or xcodebuild. For some of my projects, it can be as much as 10
times slower. (~1 hour)
Here is the script:
set (CTEST_DASHBOARD_ROOT "/Volumes/Data/SomeProject")
set (CTEST_SOURCE_DIRECTORY "${CTEST_DASHBOARD_ROOT}")
set (CTEST_BINARY_DIRECTORY "${CTEST_DASHBOARD_ROOT}/build/")
set (CTEST_SITE "SomeSiteName")
set (CTEST_BUILD_NAME "SomeBuildName")
set (CTEST_NOTES_FILES "${CTEST_SCRIPT_DIRECTORY}/${CTEST_SCRIPT_NAME}")
set (CTEST_UPDATE_COMMAND "svn")
set (CTEST_CMAKE_GENERATOR "Xcode")
set (CTEST_PROJECT_NAME "SomeProjectName")
set (CTEST_BUILD_CONFIGURATION "Debug")
set (CTEST_TEST_TIMEOUT 800)
set (CTEST_BUILD_COMMAND "xcodebuild -project MyProject.bsproj -target
MyTarget -configuration Debug clean build")
ctest_start (Experimental)
ctest_build (BUILD ${CTEST_BINARY_DIRECTORY})
ctest_test (BUILD ${CTEST_BINARY_DIRECTORY})
ctest_submit ()
After profiling the ctest process, I have obtained the following results:
ctest version 2.8.2.20100817-gb3998

0.0% 100.0% ctest cmsys::regtry(char const*, char const**,
char const**, char const*)
0.5% 100.0% ctest cmsys::regmatch(char const*)
The size of the build output is 7763KB. There are no compiler errors or
warnings. ctest_test is about as fast as running the unit tests myself in
Xcode. The problem really seems to be only with ctest_build.
Thanks,
Pascal
