I'm trying to automate the build process for engineering group. As part of that automation, I'm trying to get to a point where the act of applying a specific tag that adheres to a pattern will kick off an automated process that will do the following: Check out source code Create a build script from a template Build the project I'm p...
Our workstations are running 64-bit Vista, and the production servers for our ASP.NET MVC web apps are 64-bit Server 2008 servers. However, our build server running TeamCity is a Server 2008 32-bit server. We will taking these builds and deploying them on the 64-bit production servers. The applications are written all in C#. Should I...
Hi I am developping a DSL with its own graphical editor. Such files have a .own extension. I also have a small tool that compiles .own files into .h files. X.own --> X.h and X/*.h I have written a simple .rules file to launch the generation. My problem is the following : Most of my source files include X.h, but a change in X.own does...
When running a TFS build, will it always download all the files for the project, or can it use a previous builds download (as long as the files didn't change). ...
I'm rewriting our NAnt build scripts to make them cleaner and simpler, as well as more general purpose. One of the steps in our build process is to package certain files into a zip file. Before we had created a fileset with lots of included file types, trying to catch everything that might be in the project. This occasionally caused...
I love to organize my code, so ideally I want one class per file or, when I have non-member functions, one function per file. The reasons are: When I read the code I will always know in what file I should find a certain function or class. If it's one class or one non-member function per header file, then I won't include a whole mess ...
Most Stackoverflow answers that I have found in regards to the Perl build process and unit testing and code coverage simply point me to CPAN for the documentation there. There's absolutely nothing wrong with pointing to CPAN modules because that's where the full documentation is supposed to reside. I've had trouble finding complete wor...
Hi, Given a fileset <fileset id="myFiles" dir="."> <include name="**/*.file"/> </fileset> How do I create a sub-directory at each file in the set, named after the filename without the extension? For example, given the files folderA/X.file and folderA/folderB/Y.file, I want to create the directories folderA/X and folderA/folderB/...
Hello All I am trying to cross compile a version of my software for a 64bit platform. Can I have the 32bit and 64bit version of libstdc++ installed on the same machine without too much worries of breaking my linux install. The Os is 32bit ubuntu. I have not cross compiled before and just wanted to check that if I set my CFLAGS and LDFL...
For my C++ build process, I am using Bakefile, a nice little Makefile generator, which lets you specify your build targets in XML, and it can generate various Makefiles or project files from it. It works fine and I use it to generate the GNU autotools scripts. Now I heard of Premake, which seems to have a similar functionality. You spe...
I'm new to make and makefiles, so forgive me if this is very basic. I'm looking through some makefiles in my project and I'm seeing 2 types of targets -- targets that don't begin with a . character and targets that do. And from what I'm guessing, it seems like the ".target-name" targets are always executed, is my assumption true? I did...
We are gearing up for some pretty serious Sharepoint(MOSS 2007) development including custom web parts, lists, master pages and layouts etc etc and etc. We are evaluating version control and it seems that the discussion has not got much deeper than that. I am keen that we can easily deploy from the source control to our test and product...
I switched from NAnt to using Python to write build automation scripts. I am curious if whether any build frameworks worth using that are similar to Make, Ant, and NAnt, but, instead, are Python-based. For example, Ruby has Rake. What about Python? ...
I'm using cmake for managing my cross-platform builds, and I have everything worked out except for this problem. I set RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY to a bin/ directory where I have data files stored. On Linux, this works fine. On Windows, the executables get placed in the Debug/Release subdirectory depending on the build type. Is there any w...
I recently had cause to work with some Visual Studio C++ projects with the usual Debug and Release configurations, but also 'Release All' and 'Debug All', which I had never seen before. It turns out the author of the projects has a single ALL.cpp which #includes all other .cpp files. The *All configurations just build this one ALL.cpp f...
Does anyone have any experience of using the project config option with the Delphi Compile Action in Finalbuilder 6. Currently the build server is set up to manually have all the correct search paths, Compiler options etc set directly on the compile action. This avoids changes to the config file breaking the build, and also search path...
Do I need CVS repository viewer ? Thanks, D ...
Our organization's custom build tools write out a lot of intermediate data, and I'd like it if Hudson could detect which files were created as part of a build and archive those. I'm not sure if it already does so, but if it does there's no user-visible explanation of it, and certainly deleting a build does not delete its output. In det...
I don't understand buckminster at all. Lets say I have a project, and it needs log4j and junit4. How do I get started, what do I need to do, to specify the dependencies and have the dependencies added to my classpath in eclipse. Is there any tutorial which shows how its done? ...
E.g. I want to call these scripts passing diff params each time: <ItemGroup> <SqlFiles Include="$(SourceServicesDbSqlRootDir)CreateScripts\$(SourceServiceName)\Tables\*.sql" /> <SqlFiles Include="$(SourceServicesDbSqlRootDir)CreateScripts\$(SourceServiceName)\Functions\*.sql" /> <SqlFiles Include="$(SourceSe...
