needs_execute(self)

source code

Always returns True (indicating this Task should always be executed).

Subclasses that need this behavior (as opposed to the default of only executing Nodes that are out of date w.r.t. their dependencies) can use this as follows:

class MyTaskSubclass(SCons.Taskmaster.Task):

needs_execute = SCons.Taskmaster.Task.execute_always

Overrides: Task.needs_execute
