Gary,

If I was starting from scratch, I almost certainly would do - I've had
good experience with CruiseControl in the past. I had a look at
converting our current build script to work with CruiseControl.NET, but
we decided that our current build script already provides most of what
CruiseControl.NET would give us, so it's not worth the effort at this
point.

The only problem with our current build process is that we rely on a
Windows Scheduled task to kick off a continuous build every 2 hours. Our
full build process lasts just over an hour, so there's a lot of idle
time between builds (and if a build fails prematurely, there's even more
idle time). All I'm trying to do is to force the next build to be
carried out as soon as the previous one has completed, however long that
takes.

I'm basically trying to run the build process repeatedly until the
current time reaches 8 o'clock in the evening, hence my need for a while
task (i.e. do build while current_time < 20:00). I also need a while
task for a few things other than kicking off a continuous build, such as
repeatedly trying to acquire a lock file.

Chris

If you mean continuous build in the usual sense, why not just use
CruiseControl.Net?
