Hi David,

the feature is just released, so now I'm collecting all comments for next release's features. See my comments inline...

OK I'm actually trying it out now and it really is fantastic!

thanks a lot :)

Some feedback:
- make it automatically display the current job in the "Jobs" pane (maybe a current project link that autorefreshes so you can always see the detail for the current project)

If you're building with multiprocessing, than there can be more than 1 module in build. What should I pick as the best candidate?

OK I'm not building with multiprocessing so I haven't had that AFAIK. could make another subframe and split it up between the current building projects but that might look a bit crazy!

- clicking Total Progress sometimes caused an error and wrote javascript into the document (not serious as you can reload)

Unfortunately I cannot syncronize write (in perl) and reload (in browser) operations - that's why sometimes there are errors.

OK makes sense, I'm impressed that this works the way it does.

What would be really nice as an enhancement is to be able to log all the output of build to a file, and be able to click on the link for a project / section but especially for an error, and see the actual output for that section.

I'm thinking about it. Maybe, in next vesion there will be something like that. So far I do not have a clear vision of how to handle these logs. I mean where to write and when to remove.

I always keep lots of log files as they're much smaller than the generated builds. But different people probably have different styles here.

I also thought in the past when doing my builds, it would be nice to somehow record the average amount of time to do an initial build or a rebuild for a given project, and use that information to work out the overall progress (e.g. on Windows binfilter takes a long time to build but some projects are very quick)

I think, this information is already there. You can see total build time, CPU time (is different in multiprocessing mode) and times for each directory (dmake times). Isn't it that what you mean?

Yes, but if it could remember the time for each project from the last build then it could update the progress bar to reflect percentage of time rather than just percentage of projects.
But having the times there is very helpful already

Thanks again
David
