BuildLogFilter
BuildLogFilter filters out the informative/chatty
messages from a standard (new) JDK build log, leaving any
diagnostic messages that need to be addressed.
The related program BuildLogWarnSummary
specifically focusses on analyzing lines containing the word
‘warning’, which means that it may miss
some important messages. Since the new build log is supposed to be
relatively quiet when all is good, this program filters out the
“expected” messages, thus highlighting the remaining
“unexpected” messages.
BuildLogFilter can write an XML file for use with
the Plot Plugin for Hudson or Jenkins, to facilitate displaying a
trend graph of the number of diagnostic messages in recent
builds.
