Trygve Laugstol commented on CONTINUUM-564: ------------------------------------------- Sounds like a good idea to me. > Change focus of build from projects to Build Definitions > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CONTINUUM-564 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CONTINUUM-564 > Project: Continuum > Type: Wish > Components: Core system > Versions: 1.0.2 > Reporter: Geoff Gibbs > > > Rather than using projects as the mian focus for continumms build system, why > not use the build definitions? > For example: > Currently If I have a project with 3 build definitions, each scehduled to run > nightly at 1,2 and 3am then the first will be triggered at 1am, the Project > will be in a "Building" state and the cvs update will take place, assuming > changes have been made the required build is then run. > Assume a change is made before 2am. > At 2am the second build definition is triggered and agian the Project will be > in a "Building" state, if I were to view the "Show projects" page now, I > would not know if the first build was taking over an hour or if the second > build is taking place as the focus is on the project, not the build > definition. > Finally at 3am the next build is trigger, but nothing has changed, so the > third build definition is never built. > It seems more sensible for the Show Projects page to be replaced with a show > build definitions page and for the build definitions to be named (currently I > have to examine the output to see which build definition was used for a given > build of a project. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
