And I just triggered a rebuild for Windows/next.

That's when I got > really annoyed.:) History shows that all rebuilds were triggered for a reason - either due to fgrun changes or due to an update of the installer package itself. But see below... We really should create a separate fgrun/Release job: right now, the fgrun job depends on SimGear/next, though Windows/Release depends on fgrun. So, first of all, the fgrun binary in the Release installer isn't built with the correct simgear DLLs (it's was already build against the simgear/2.7.0 - which luckily/hopefully was still compatible to simgear/2.6.0 at the time of the release) - or am I missing something? Secondly, every SimGear/next change triggers an fgrun rebuild (as expected), but due to the fgrun dependency, it also triggered a rebuild of the Windows/Release job. Seems like we something we should improve :). Also, as suggested by Fred, splitting the (Windows) Release job itself into smaller jobs (simgear/flightgear/installer), makes a lot of sense... cheers, Thorsten ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow!
