mike perham reassigned SCM-113: ------------------------------- Assign To: mike perham > Support persistent and transient clientspecs > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: SCM-113 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SCM-113 > Project: Maven SCM > Type: New Feature > Components: maven-scm-provider-perforce > Versions: 1.0-beta-3 > Reporter: mike perham > Assignee: mike perham > Fix For: 1.0-beta-3 > > > Continuum needs a persistent clientspec because it needs to update a > project's source code and build it once an hour. On larger projects a > complete resync might take 10-20 minutes so it is necessary to keep a > clientspec around for that Continuum project build so syncs only take a few > seconds. > However, the Maven Release plugin may need to be used by tens or even > hundreds of developers to release any number of small modules. Currently > this would mean lots of clientspecs being created for the release checkout > which are reused very infrequently. Here I would prefer to create the > clientspec, do the checkout, build and then delete the clientspec. This is > what I term a transient clientspec. > The Perforce plugin would need to default to one mode and support some sort > of hint which tells it which mode to operate in. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
