[vtk-developers] Moved Mirkwood ninja dashboards to nightly

[David Cole]

Fabulous. (Not really, that's email sarcasm.)

It was green until this commit was merged to master: 
http://vtk.org/gitweb?p=VTK.git;a=commitdiff;h=34903fe1ba157683efb0062abcc73cd163d5ff89

Even with python wrapping on, this change would fix it, if we would 
take it: http://review.source.kitware.com/#/c/10481/

If I just turn python wrapping off, it will also be green again. I will 
do that if we refuse to accept the change I've proposed in gerrit.

I don't think moving it away is the right response when it was green 
before.....

It was working on March 25th. Changes merged to master that day broke 
it for March 26th's dashboard. I object to moving it away and sweeping 
this under the rug. It's a recent break in the VTK master code base, it 
is not an intractable problem with ninja.

If ninja is not officially supported for VTK, then I'll move it to an 
"NMake" or "jom" driven dashboard. I think it's ridiculous *not* to 
support ninja when it's clearly viable and provides the fastest 
possible build times on Windows.

Hi folks,


I just moved the Mirkwood ninja dashboards from Nightly Expected to 
Nightly. If someone wants to fix the ninja build issues, great. But 
having them in Nightly Expected is not helping us clean the dashboard. 
As far as I am concerned, VTK ninja builds are not officially supported.
