TD/OMS Build Queue View

The TD/OMS Build Queue view enables to you build/compile one or more components in a Task.

You can open the Build Queue view by:

  • Selecting a task or Solution and using the Show in .. context menu
  • Using the quick-access box in the toolbar and typing build queue

If it is empty, select a Task in the Work Management view. The view will be populated with the all components that are in the Build Queue for the selected Task. If there are no entries in the queue yet, click the Ewm bqaddicon.png toolbar item to add all entries from the Task to the build queue. If you want to add one or more Solutions instead of all components from the Task, simply select the Solutions that you want to add and click the Ewm bqaddicon.png toolbar item to add them to the queue.

Release the build queue when objects are added
Tick this if you want to release the build queue when new objects are added.

Refresh the build queue automatically when jobs are running
When the build queue is running, it will automatically refresh for you until all results are in.
