Bug ID: 140845
Summary: [Win] Switch build to MSBuild so we get more useful
stdout logging in our buildbot infrastructure
Classification: Unclassified
Product: WebKit
Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
Hardware: PC
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: Normal
Priority: P2
Component: Tools / Tests
Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
Reporter: bfulgham at webkit.org
See Bug 140819 for context.
Basically, we encounter false 'timeout' events on Windows builds because the Visual Studio-based build system doesn't output anything to stdout until the build is complete. Since our timeout was previously 20 minutes, a full rebuild (which takes around 40 minutes or so on Windows) would generate a "build failed" message even though there was nothing wrong.
This was worked around in Bug 140819, however a proper fix for this is to use MSBuild to drive the compile. This generates stdout messages which will keep buildbot happy.
