Heads Up: per-system customization and user-configurable hooks added to nightly.shDate: Fri, 31 Aug 2007 17:12:34 -0400 From: Bill Sommerfeld <sommerfeld at sun dot com> To: onnv-gate <onnv-gate at onnv dot eng dot sun dot com> Subject: Heads Up: per-system customization and user-configurable hooks added to nightly.sh With the integration of: 6584986 *nightly* needs a hook for shared build machines the single post-nightly "hook" introduced by 6451117 has been generalized into six hooks which run at various points during the build. In addition, nightly(1) will now read /etc/nightly.conf (if it exists) prior to reading the developer-specified environment file, permitting system-wide defaults and hooks to be established by build machine maintainers; as the developer environment file is read immediately afterwards, the developer remains free to override the defaults. Developers and build machine maintainers interested in using these features should review the revised nightly man page for more information. Other bugs may interfere with global default settings, including: 6343373 nightly.sh ignores existing DMAKE_MAX_JOBS 6439703 default nightly env files should not force empty $BUILD_PROJECT Build machine maintainers must be careful when setting defaults to avoid unanticipated side effects. |
