[Insight-developers] CTest ctest_submit in parts, re-running

[Bradley Lowekamp]

I am working on updating my SimpleITK common dashboard script to submit in parts to facilitate a second build on the "dist" target for packaging [1].

I have changed the ctest_builds to be in APPEND mode as describe in a blog David Cole wrote.

My problem is that I some time re-run these nightly builds scripts, and when this occurs the old information is not removed from the cdash row, it just get added. So, I get multiple notes build[2], errors and tests, some time accumulate on CDash. 

Is there something I should to do tell CDash the old build should be cleared? or that it's a new build with the same name? I'd like to avoid pilling on the data to have a useful display for the re-running of the scripts.

Thanks,
Brad
