Use build numbers as IDs

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      Stop using the formatted timestamp to compute Run.id, and just use the build number as the directory name, so that

      r.getId().equals(String.valueOf(r.number))

      in which case the timestamp would have to be made a nontransient field (but number could be transient). Then build number symlinks could be dispensed with, saving some hassle and overhead; and AbstractLazyLoadRunMap could be greatly simplified, since the disk location would be immediately predictable from the number, which is what most API calls care about.

      The downside is that there would have to be a one-time migration, which could be slow on a big installation, and not reversible.
