[users at bb.net] Save build logs in a standalone report

[Alvaro Erickson]

Hi Mike,

I too would like to see what your solution for saving a log (into plain
text, not html) for all steps after a build is finished. Specifically, if
you could please share the subclassed Build class for log generation. Any
examples would be very helpful.

Background: On my work project, one of the goals is they want all the build
logs to be archived.

Regards,

Alvaro
