OK, that sounds good (is there a downside to putting everything in one batch job, just keep doing a CD)?. When you point to a SVN URL, and it has multiple C++ projects under it, in different solutions folders, Jenkins (through polling), determines if there are any changes (to any of that top URL sub folders). One C++ solution could have changed, or multiple solutions could have changed, so Jenkins starts the job. Besides creating a seperate Jenkins job for each sub URL (so the job only starts if there was a change), how do you not execute a step (if you have individual build steps for each solution), if that particular steps solution has not changed?
