[CMake] Submitting build and test results to dashboard separately

[David Cole]

This sounds like we need to change ctest such that you can do a submit in an
"already ctest_start()-ed" tree without getting the error.

Your first instinct, to try leaving off the ctest_start() in the 2nd script
sounds completely reasonable to me.

If you are running multiple scripts sequentially, there's no good reason I
can think of that the 2nd and later scripts can't reuse the TAG from the
first ctest_start call.

Can you submit a bug to the bug tracker requesting this ability...?


Thanks,
David
