09/09/2015, 4:28 PMthe downside that most folks point out is that it's more difficult to build a brand around something that lives among a bunch of other code - w

09/09/2015, 4:31 PMThe regular test/exercise of smaller projects is a key attraction. - w

09/09/2015, 5:20 PMHey John/Stu, we have a tricky thing we're trying to do with our codegen (have it be self-hosting) and I was wondering if this has already been solved - b
bored-art-40741
09/09/2015, 5:20 PMBasically, we want to invoke an in-repo jvm_binary target which does the actual codegen - b

09/09/2015, 5:20 PMThis seems like something the round engine might do, but it spans goals (gen vs compile) - b

09/09/2015, 5:21 PMWe would normally just solve this by shelling out to a sub-pants command that does a run.jvm - b

09/09/2015, 5:21 PMBut there are a bunch of locking/racing issues there - w
witty-crayon-22786
09/09/2015, 5:28 PMit's a thing we desire. but we've told folks that they should wait for the engine refactor - w
witty-crayon-22786
09/09/2015, 6:07 PM...which we're very close to being able to work on. - b

09/09/2015, 9:31 PMWe should probably put some heads together before engine refactor work begins in earnest. - h

09/10/2015, 12:57 AMThe "maximum verbosity" section recently changed. PEX_VERBOSE=5 ./pants -ldebug ... is enough now? There used to be a few other env variables there. Are they all obsolete? - c
