"build only if there are changes accepted" doesn't work


Kevin Lou (311925) | asked Nov 20 '12, 10:10 a.m.
I am using RTC 3.0.1 and trying to set up a build (Ant - Jazz Build Engine). 
In the build definition, I set the options as follows:
  - Delete directory before loading: Unchecked
  - Create folders for components: Checked
  - Accept latest changes before loading: Checked
  - Build only if there are changes accepted: Checked

However, I find that even when there is no change to the stream, the build still happens - even though the "fetching" doesn't do anything since everything is up-to-date. In my build script, I found that "team.scm.buildOnlyIfChanges" is set to "true" and "team.scm.buildOnlyIfChanges" is not set,which I think both are correctly set. But should the build stop at the very beginning because there is no change at all.  Here is the beginning of my build log:

It looks like you initiated the build. I believe that setting is only for scheduled builds.
