I have a build that is running in TFS TeamBuild. I want to pass a property from that to the MSBuild that is run for each Project built by the TFSBuild.proj. Example: TFSBuild.proj <PropertyGroup> <Version>0.0.0.0</Version> </PropertyGroup> <Target Name="BuildNumberOverrideTarget" DependsOnTargets="AfterInitializeWorkspac...
Our msbuild process creates a variety of zip packages for deployment (mostly web sites, but other things as well). We have a variety of recurring problems that keep sneaking back - files included that shouldn't be, missing resources. This screams for automated validation. The criteria to test for are simple Validation of foosite package...
I downloaded Hudson, and am trying to install it as a service. I followed the steps from this page, but when I try to start the service, it always fails. I'm not really getting any defined error codes either. If I try to run the service from the command line (using net start) I get the following (unhelpful) message: The hudson servic...
Hi, Is there some way to compile (with the CSC task) a WPF Application with NAnt except for using the task from the NantContrib? greetings Tigraine ...
We are using continuous integration as part of our build automation. For every check in, the tfs build server builds the project and deploys to our web servers on success. When the build fails, it automatically creates a new Bug with the details of the build failure. Due to CI and the activity on the server, this might result in 10 or...
There is a lot of talk on the internet about how Maven is bad. I have been using some features of Maven for a few years now and the most important benefit in my view is the dependency management. Maven documentation is less than adequate, but generally when I need to accomplish something I figure it out once and then it works (for exam...

I'm starting a small/medium-sized python project, likely in Test Driven Development. My backgrounds are more in C and java than python (I used ant and makefile) I know that in python you might not need a build tool, but I will, because I'll use cython and PyInstaller (the thing should work on a couple of different UNIXes, without depend...
I am a newbie to Boost C++ libraries. I was wondering if there are any advantages of Boost bjam over GNU make? And what are the cons if I use make for building C++ code utilizing Boost.Python libraries? ...
Hi, Does anyone know of an SFTP task for msbuild? We'd like to automate our deployments to production, but for security reasons we don't allow SMB file-share access from our dev/test/build environment to production. Right now, developers deploy code by manually uploading the files using FileZilla, over an SFTP connection. This is pre...
I am trying to customize my build by using a configuration file with ant. What I intend to do is that use config file which has the following pattern: file path, pattern to match, pattern to replace I want it such that I just add things to the configuration file and the ant build script reads up these values and makes the required chang...
I'd like to write an Ant script that calls an external utility (Inkscape, in fact) that needs a full path. Right now I have <exec executable="${inkscape.path}"> <arg value="--file=build_exe/splash.svg" /> <arg value="--export-png=build_exe/splash.png" /> <arg value="-C" /> </exec> On Windows, Inkscape requires absolute pat...
I have a script that will convert a text file into a resource file, so that I can have multiple language support by having text files for different languages converted into different resources. Once I run the script to get the resx file, I then have to run a custom build tool (as described here:Link to Code Project) in order to create t...
I work on a project with 4 other devs. We currently use Visual Studio to build our solution with some Pre and Post build events. I would like to move to a more powerful build system such as Nant or MsBuild. What are the pros and cons of the two approaches? How is the developer experience using Nant/MsBuild? Is it easy to debug the app...
I have a deployment project deployment.vdproj to which I have added the project output of project.csproj. I want to build deployment.vdproj through the command line. But while doing so I need to specify a property (/p:) for project.csproj. How do I this? I have used devenv.com to build deployment.vdproj, but I cannot figure out how to p...
I have a problem with a build where I have to resolve non-standard artifacts through Apache Ivy. Problem: I have dependencies on two artifacts (a.jar and a-lib.jar). The two dependencies come only as part of a single installer (a_installer.jar). The installer can be downloaded, the embedded artifacts themselves not. It's possible to ...

I am just curious to see what others are doing during build-automation other than usual compile, build, run-tests, etc tasks that might be helpful and inspirational for others to consider and look into such as: Generating code documentation Using code-metrics to measure build quality and fail the build if established metrics are violat...
