[Dart] Update question

[Blezek, Daniel J (GE, Research)]

Hi Felix,
 
  The Dart server does not do any coordination of the clients.  I suspect you are looking at the Dart v1 pages which were little documented.  Dart2 has much more extensive documentation: http://na-mic.org/Wiki/index.php/Dart2Summary and a manual: http://svn.na-mic.org/svn/Dart/trunk/Documentation/Manual/Dart.pdf.
 
For the "nightly" testing, each client must update it's code to the same time.  We usually use 10pm.  Then the client builds and submits testing results.
 
For continuous builds, each client periodically checks for changes to the repository.  If there are any, the client updates it's code and submits testing results.
 
In both cases, the Dart server does not interact with the SVN repository.
 
Regards,
-dan

	Hi,
	
	1. I have an interrogation about SVN updates. Are the sources update done one time on the server and then the clients are updating themselves directly thru the server or is every client are updating their code independently ? It is not very well explained in the Dart (little) documentation. 
	
	2. How does continious build works ? Is the server probing the SVN for changes or something like that to get the updates every time something changes in the SVN ?
	
	Regards,
	Félix C. Morency
