modificationDelaySeconds
Documentation says "This process will repeat until no modifications have been found within the modification delay window."
I have modificationDelaySeconds set to 10 seconds. This means that if a modification was found within 10 seconds, CCNET will not do the build and check again for modifications. The process should repeat and it should trigger the build, when there is no more modifications within the modification delay window. This does not work as expected. If I have a trigger interval of 1 hour and if CCNET finds one modification in that delay window, it waits for next 1 hour to build the project. Is this an issue with CCNET or I am interpreting the documentation incorrectly.
publishExceptions
Documentation says default is 'false' and if you do not specify the node CCNET should not publish source control exceptions as failed build. This is not the case, I think by default it is true as CCNET is publishing build failed notification (email) on source control exceptions for projects that do not have this node.
As far as modificationDelaySeconds is concerned, I believe that the operation you describe is the intended operation. I guess the documentation needs to be tweaked.
I would also suggest that these comments are better placed to the ccnet-user@lists.sourceforge.net mailing list.
sandeep,
modificationDelaySeconds: this is a known, longstanding issue with ccnet. it used to work correctly around 0.5, but some change ended up breaking this functionality. it is on my lengthy to do list (and yes, people have submitted patches to fix this).
publishExceptions: thanks for pointing this out. i've updated the documentation.
