04/27/2016, 11:34 PMA bunch of times I was watching jobs run and realized that the closure was only evaluated on the last run of the loop - b

04/28/2016, 12:05 AMDo you recall what the 'scalac-plugin-jars’ tool is about? - h
happy-kitchen-89482
04/28/2016, 12:05 AMWe register a jvm tool under that name - h
happy-kitchen-89482
04/28/2016, 12:06 AMand expect its classpath to contain all the potential plugins - h
happy-kitchen-89482
04/28/2016, 12:06 AMbut there’s no actual tool there - w

happy-kitchen-89482
04/28/2016, 12:07 AMbut I don’t remember the part about the user having to provide a classpath - h

04/28/2016, 12:08 AMHow would the user know about where Pants put the jar for some plugin it built earlier?
