| <a name="GENERATE_ARTIFACTS_ON_FAILURE"></a>GENERATE_ARTIFACTS_ON_FAILURE| For instance Bazel needs artifacts (.odb and .rpt files) on a failure to allow the user to save hours on re-running the failed step locally, but when working with a Makefile flow, it is more natural to fail the step and leave the user to manually inspect the logs and artifacts directly via the file system. Set to 1 to change the behavior to generate artifacts upon failure to e.g. do a global route. The exit code will still be non-zero on all other failures that aren't covered by the "useful to inspect the artifacts on failure" use-case. Example: just like detailed routing, a global route that fails with congestion, is not a build failure(as in exit code non-zero), it is a successful(as in zero exit code) global route that produce reports detailing the problem. Detailed route will not proceed, if there is global routing congestion This allows build systems, such as bazel, to create artifacts for global and detailed route, even if the operation had problems, without having know about the semantics between global and detailed route. Considering that global and detailed route can run for a long time and use a lot of memory, this allows inspecting results on a laptop for a build that ran on a server.| 0| |
