Jeremy Frank commented on JENKINS-3265 Reload Configuration from Disk (or POSTing config.xml) loses info on running builds It is nice to see some work being done on this issue. Thank you Matt. There seems to be a question of what the best approach would be, for solving the problem. Perhaps this is naive, but... When loading a new config.xml, how about doing whatever the interactive web form does? When I reconfigure a job via html form (POSTing to /job/X/configSubmit) the job is reconfigured properly and the running build list maintains existing builds just fine. In fact my workaround for this problem is to emulate the web form posting, and it has been doing great. So, could the solution here be to duplicate the functionality of /job/X/configSubmit into the code that handles /job/X/config.xml (and a similar thing for /reload if possible)? I'm not the expert though, just hoping that thought sparks some ideas. Cheers.
