patch to add force option (2.96 KB, patch)

Description Colin Walters 2008-01-07 21:25:00 UTC 
I have 'updated' as my build policy (the only sane policy ;)).  Now, when I'm hacking on a module I want to run "jhbuild buildone modname", but it doesn't build anything because it wasn't updated.  There didn't appear to be any way to make this go without temporarily hacking my config (ick).

Attached is a patch which adds a -f option to force a build, for both the "build" and "buildone" options.

Comment 3 Colin Walters 2008-01-11 21:09:29 UTC 
Chasing a regression here:

Traceback (most recent call last):
...

+ Trace 184987

  • File "/src/jhbuild/jhbuild/trunk/jhbuild/modtypes/__init__.py", line 110 in check_build_policy 
    if buildscript.config.force_policy:
AttributeError: Config instance has no attribute 'force_policy' 

I'll debug then commit.

You need to declare the configuration variable in jhbuild/config.py (_known_keys) (and I should read patch more carefully).
Comment 5 Colin Walters 2008-01-11 21:23:38 UTC 
Fixed and committed, thanks!
