Greetings,
in an Oxygene project (7.1.75.1557, VS2013, .NET 4.5), if a source file in the project is missing on disk, an error is logged when you build the project, but the build is still considered successful. I would prefer if this could be changed, so that the build fails in this case.
Use case: We have a NUnit test project. A developer added a new file with a new test class, checked in the changed project file, but forgot to check in the new source file. The automatic build+test process ran successfully, because the project compiled successfully despite the missing file, since NUnit just uses reflection to find any available test fixtures in the assembly. It was not immediately apparent that the new test was in fact not executed.
Steps to reproduce:
- Create a new Oxygene .NET console application
- Add a class file
- Build the project
- Use Windows Explorer or similar to delete the class .pas file from disk.
- Build the project in Visual Studio. The status bar says “Build succeeded” although an error is logged.
- When building from the command line, error E215 can be seen in the log, and the summary from MSBuild says 1 error, but the exit code is 0 (success).
Thanks in advance,
Robert
