Running Scheduled builds even when nothing has changed

Hi,

Is it possible to get a scheduled build to run, even when the source code in RTC has not changed?

I know in general you would get no benefit, but I download jars from elsewhere and I want my build to run to catch problems caused when the jar has been changed.

Thanks

Alasdair,

I believe that you just need to go into the Build Definition and modify
the Jazz Source Control tab to uncheck the "Build only if there are
changes accepted" checkbox.

David,

Thanks for that, if it had been a mouse it would have bitten me.
