Provides a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/cron">cron</a>-like feature
|
|
to periodically execute this project.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
This feature is primarily for using Hudson as a cron replacement,
|
|
and it is <b>not ideal for continuously building software projects</b>.
|
|
|
|
When people first start continuous integration, they are often so used to
|
|
the idea of regularly scheduled builds like nightly/weekly that they use
|
|
this feature. However, the point of continuous integration is to start
|
|
a build as soon as a change is made, to provide a quick feedback to the change.
|
|
To do that you need to
|
|
<a href="https://hudson.dev.java.net/build.html">hook up SCM change notification to Hudson.</a>.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
So, before using this feature, stop and ask yourself if this is really what you want.
