Nothing stops you building while running from the install directory. Only the install target, which takes a few seconds and is probably faster than copying all the files, requires the program to be stopped. Actually that is only a Windows deficiency, other operating systems allow executable files to be replaced on disk while they are loaded into memory. The install target only installs files that have changed which makes it very quick.
As for backing out, rather than making yet another copy why not just revert to a working revision (`svn up rNNNN`) and build that. > > At least I'm not aware of an install target for JTSDK that does a similar > thing. The install target is designed to do most of what you are replicating with ancillary scripts. Seems to me you are unnecessarily reinventing a wheel that has worked very well for a long time. 73 Bill G4WJS. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Transform Data into Opportunity.
