Keep tasks run executing until build completes

FinalBuilder Discussion
1

I have several tasks on my server that run continually.  Those tasks run an .exe file my build creates. I'd like to tell the finalbuilder server to stop running a certain task, and not to start it again until my build completes (My finalbuilder script and execute commands at the start and end so I know when I want to stop the tasks and start them).

That is, when my msbuild script starts, I want to tell the "finalbuilder server" to stop several running tasks (and not have them requeued and restarted) until my msbuild scripts says it's all done.

Now, I have to go through the process of stopping the tasks, manually disabling the triggers, do the build, then manually enabling the triggers when the build completes.

Thanks

Hi Peter,

You should be able to use a ‘If Project is Running’ condition on both of the projects with the one on the continuous project set to discard the build if the selected project is running, and the one on the other project set to queue the build until the continuous one finishes.

Paul.
