"current build" colors?

(1/1)

sadffffff:
so i see that a number and yellow seems to refer to a compilation warning and pink/red to an error...

would it be ill advised to install one of those builds? or is it ok? because up untill now, ive been avoiding anything that isnt green

Llorean:
Yellow *usually* doesn't matter. Red usually means something won't work right. But it only matters if it's in your column.

saratoga:
If you click them, it shows you what triggered the color change.  From there you can get a pretty good idea if the build is broken or not.  Generally builds with lots of the "error" lines printed next to important sounding files won't work too well, while warnings aren't usually a problem.

bluebrother:
A build can be broken even if it's green -- coding errors the compiler can't find. The build table is mostly useful for devs to see if something went wrong. You don't need to worry too much about that colors -- if the build isn't red (and therefore not available for download) it should work, and in the worst case it will behave strangely. Just update to another build then.

Currently all PP-targets build yellow because of a #warning in the code.

thanks for the responses guys, very informative  8-)
