Sbt shell for build an import Follow
While importing projects with recent versions of the plugin, I noticed a new option labelled :
> Use sbt shell for build
which was changed to
> Use sbt shell for build and import (experimental)
by the latest update.
It sounds very very much like sbt server integration but I was unable to find any documentation about this option. Can anyone enlighten me ?
Thanks

I actually found the youtrack issue related to my question, if anyone is interested :

The option attempts to use the sbt shell as a server for running builds and project imports. It's marked as experimental since the communication doesn't happen over a proper server protocol (this will only be supported for sbt 1.0) but instead by literally pasting commands into the integrated shell and parsing the output.
Hi justin, Thanks for the additional information !
