Re: Build-Log in Dashboard

Hi fellows,

That's good news. This looks like a neat solution to me. I guess you
actually meant #CC-899 instead of #CC-831, though:
http://jira.public.thoughtworks.org/browse/CC-899

I'll try your patch when I got some spare time here. Thanks a lot.

Betreff: Re: [Cruisecontrol-user] Build-Log in Dashboard

Hi All,

I had the same problem earlier this year. I wanted to view the build
output in a tab on the dashboard.

Looking at the dashboard configuration, I spotted that there was
already code to do so. It's called "AntOutputWidget". It effectively
transforms all the build output in the log into nicely formatted html
on a build output tab. However, there were three problems:
* but it was disabled by default
* it was a "deprecated" widget plugin
* it didn't work (there were a few bugs, which is why it was disabled, I
guess)

Luckily, I was able to find a fix already created by someone else, and
submit a patch to the dev list. The issue can be found at
http://jira.public.thoughtworks.org/browse/CC-831 , and I wrote on my
blog about what I did at
http://www.exubero.com/joe/2009/03/a-small-cruisecontrol-fix-and-a-critique-
of-spring/

You may be interested to know, JTF commented that the widget plugin
wasn't really deprecated. I updated my patch to remove the
"deprecated" warning from the documentation, as well.

The patch is still not been address. If any committer wants to have a
look at this, I'd appreciate it (it will mean that I don't have to
patch the instance of CC I use any more)

Cheers,
Joe
