| NetBeans Plugins I Use, Part 5: Build Monitor
|
| Tor Norbye writes, "The Build Monitor plugin for NetBeans allows you to
|
| see the status of continuous builds, right from within the IDE. The
|
| Build Monitor works with several continuous build systems -
|
| CruiseControl, Hudson, and of course the NetBeans continuous build. You
|
| can monitor multiple build sources - all you do is name your build and
|
| point to an RSS feed where the plugin can fetch the build status."
