Hi all,
There appears to be an issue with TFS logging large amounts of output from a code activity (such as the one we have written to run FinalBuilder) that causes the log order to be incorrect.
We've had one customer report the problem and have been able to reproduce it here with a minimal, non-FB-specific code activity. We've lodged a bug report with Microsoft, which you can view here: http://bit.ly/mHVQqk
The exact circumstances seem to vary: in our testing we didn't see the issue until the log was at 100,000 lines, but the customer saw it with a much smaller log of around 2,000 lines.
This bug does not affect how the build runs or the *.fbl7 file produced by FinalBuilder, just the TFS build log.
As a workaround, you may like to use the Export Log to File action in FinalBuilder to produce an in-order html or text file.
We will update you if we hear back from MS.
Cheers,
Ben
