Can I ask what you are trying to do?  The build-test thingy wont' get
simpler because of this patch, because we want the build-test tool to
record it's actions in fine detail, and the only way to do that is to
do the actions individually.  Therefore, calling some do-everything
target is a non-starter as lots of important information will be
lost, with the only gain I can see is saving 19 lines of code that
we'd write once and everyone would use.

it just hides information for no gain.



Sorry, I can not see any place where we hide information. Build logs will be available with the same details. Strictly speaking, nothing will change (except script simplification) - just some legal build sequence will be
moved from external tool to the build system.

How will you be able to grab that information from the logs, so I can see histories and such? I'm not going to go manually scanning logs. I want a web page that shows me the history. This is what the CI system does right now. Why would we want to reverse that? I want to be able to graph the times to look for aberrations....

I guess you can write log-scanning code, but that seems to be longer than the 19 extra lines that would be in the script for cruise control...

thanks, Vladimir

Maybe I'm misunderstanding your motivation?

Having that target in classlib is fine.  But I can't see why we'd
ever want to use it in the context that we are discussing it....
