Having used Final Build now for some time, I have to say I have love the power it offers. I have a few desires for future versions of the product.  
  
1. Web Site to Start and control Build Process and Status.   
2. Ability to Monitor Source Code Control to start a build as soon as check in has occured.  
3. Ability to Iterate through the Lines of Compiler Output, so I can identify what file broke the build.   
4. Ability to see the who last checked in a file (VSS) (That way I can email the offending person who broke the build )  
5. Support DUnit and NUnit directly  
6. Support Insert or Create JCL Debug Data  
 FYI- I do this currently be calling MakeJclDbg.exe that ships with the JCL (after you install/compile)

1) In development  
2) In development  
3) You should be able to do this now, if you log the output to a variable you can then use some script to do this. I’m sure we could do something better with this though.  
4) We’ll add this to the todo list… should be possible to get this info from the ss.exe command line tool  
5) I’ve looked into DUnit support in the past. Loading and running DUnit test packages isn’t going to happen, since they are compiler version specific. You can already compile and run Dunit test apps (ie console test harnesses) from FinalBuilder. As for NUnit, I’m not sure what else you need?  
6) This should be easy to do, have you tried using Action Studio to create an action?  
  
Regards  
  
Vincent.

1, 2 : Cool  
3 : I will have to play with it, but yes I think it could be easier.  
4. Thanks  
5. I suspected there might be a problem with DUnit and Compiler and DUnit Versions, but I thought it would not hurt to ask. I will have to play with the consoleRunner output and maybe get that parsed and handled in FB.  
6. Yes, I suspect it would be. I guess it's time to learn a new area of the software.

How about a web services call?

You are going to have to provide more detail than that… how do you envisage it would work etc.

Vincent,  
  
Do you have a rough estimate on when can we expect the Web Interface?  
  
Thanks,

I'm afraid we're not in a position to give any estimates at this time. All I can say is that the whole team is working on it right now and work is progressing well according to our project schedule.

The DotNet ResGen Acton does not seem allow the entry of command line switches.  
Specifically, I would like to be able to enter the /str:C#,MyNamespace,MyClass,Output.cs switch to generate a strongly typed DotNet class for resources.  
  
I’m not very experienced with FB so may be there is a way to do this already.

As replied on the Newsgroup, this can be done via the ExtraCmdLineArgs parameters under the Action Inspector tab. The extra ResGen options have been added to the To-Do list. Thanks.
