Serial calling and deps task

[aweseeker]

Hi Team,

In Taskfile, serial calling and deps both not calling other task with their respective sequence, that is serial task not calling next task serially instead concurrently and deps defined task starts running before completing the deps task. Kindly advice here.
Attached both examples.

In my case the task I am going to run for satisfying deps are bit time consuming task takes around 60 secs, but before finishing this task the dependent caller task starts executing, same scenrio applies for serial call, task 1 is time consuming, so before completing task 1 task 2 get called. I expect task2 should start after finishing task1. Any chance we can mention kind of wait time or sleep?

Taskfile.yaml - for serial ex
Taskfile.yml - for deps ex.

Burying your examples in a zip file makes it harder for anyone to review them. For other readers, here they are:

Taskfile.yml

version: '3'

tasks:
  main:
    cmds:
      - task: buildGRA
      - task : copyGRA
  copyGRA:
    deps: [buildGRA]
    cmds:
      - robocopy C:/Users/release/tomcat/ C:/Users/psankara/GRA/Docker/gra gra.war
      
  buildGRA:
    dir: C:/Users/GRA/Docker/gra/src/production
    cmds:
      - C:/Users/GRA/Docker/gra/src/production/build_brgui.bat

Taskfile.yaml

version: '3'

tasks:
  copyGRA:
    deps: [buildGRA]
    cmds:
      - robocopy C:/Users/release/tomcat/ C:/Users/psankara/GRS/Docker/gra gra.war
      
  buildGRAT:
    dir: C:/Users/GRA/Docker/gra/src51/production
    cmds:
      - C:/Users/GRA/Docker/gra/src51/production/build_brgui.bat

My guess would be that your batch file build-brgui.bat is exiting before the launched programs are complete.

Add echo Done to the end of the batch file; my guess is that you'll see that echo command show up well before the build finishes.
