So we have 100+ projects and growing fast . . . They are all mostly the same, but changes creep in when folks debug or whatever.
What we'd really like to be able to do is to look at all the projects at once . . . The Config Slicer is heading in the right direction, but it only does a small sub-set of the "universe of all parameters" . . . plus we would like to be able to ask questions like . . . . for all jobs configured with email-ext, do they all have "Still Failing" defined? Unless Slicer radically expands, it is doubtful Slicer will ever handle a question like that. I am looking at options like a Windows application to scrounge through the project xml files . . . or perhaps importing all the project xml files into a SQL database . . . SOMETHING to put them all in a form where they can be looked at as a group. Surely others have faced this problem before . . . are there any existing tools out there for dealing with these issues? I don't want to solve again what I assume is a problem that has already been solved. Frank
