Is it safe to use TortoiseSVN's "Set file dates to the last commit time" feature with Visual Studio?

TortoiseSVN has a feature to set the file dates to the "last commit time." The default is false. This would be nice to use for the purpose of robocopy install scripts. If one developer does a robocopy install of a website, when I update my repository my file change dates aren't the same as his, so if I try to do an install, the dates ...

Batch Build open-source tools for VS 2008

In our project, we have about 70 C# Projects. We need to deploy the components to development server. I'm wondering if there is any standalone tool which aids this process, rather than building each project one by one, or creating a VS Solution containing all the projects. What I'm picturing is a simple application where I enter the .cs...

Add new resource to existing ResourceCollection (path) in ANT build script

I've got a build script that builds multiple components and jars them up. I currently build a path like so: <path id="project.class.basepath"> <fileset dir="${lib.dir}"> <include name="**/*.jar" /> </fileset> <fileset dir="${path.to.base}/components"> <include name="*/build/lib/*.jar" /> </fileset> </path> ...

Simple build process automation on Windows

I'm not a huge fan of tools like Ant, but they are certainly useful. In a current C++ project I have no automated build process at all - I simply build my working dir using Visual studio, zip up the /bin folder and send it out for installation. The project is small enough this does work OK, but it's totally reliant on me knowing the proj...

Questions on setting up automated builds

Hi, When using an automated build system, it is usually a source control entry which executes tests (but I assume this can be configured to not be on every entry in a large team). How comes build applications have actions for source code checkins. Is there any need for this? So to summarise, is a build script executed by a source contro...

How automate sqlite db creation in Xcode and put it in the app bundle

I have a sqlite DB that has a lot of test data inside. Currently, I load the data inside the app code, but take several minutes inside the iPod I use for testing. I wonder if is possible to make in Xcode a pre-build tests that inits the db, then adds it to the app bundle, so I can extract it from the iPod. I'm stuck in how create & pre...

XCode "build" behavior - dependency for DATA file

This is a problem I'm experiencing with XCode 3.1.2 on OSX 10.5. I wanted to see if it was possible to stay completely within the IDE throughout the testing cycle. This included producing and updating test data. Since the test data was text, my first choice for a template with which to create that data file was "Strings". Very educat...

Adding classpath to jetty running in maven integration-test

I'm trying to set up integration tests for a Maven project that produces a war file. (As seen here http://docs.codehaus.org/display/JETTY/Maven+Jetty+Plugin/.) However I the war file requires a bunch of .properties files on the classpath, that I don't want to bundle in the war. Is there a way (preferably through plugin configuration) t...

after upgrading to xcode 3.2, can I still build projects into 3.1 simulator?

I upgraded to xcode 3.2 and now the build options from the drop down menu on the upper left of the main window in xcode are limited to only 3.2 versions of the sdk, however if I open a project up that was built in the previous version those options are still there(or at least 3.1.2 is) anyway to get that option into a project built in th...

nant vs. msbuild: stopping a service

I'm trying to decide which side I'm on in the MsBuild vs. Nant war. I'm starting with: stop a service, deploy some files, restart the service. Just from looking at these two links, that is much easier to do in Nant. MSBuild: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/173393/example-of-using-service-exists-msbuild-task-in-microsoft-sdc-tasks/17...

Creatings builds with Perforce?

When creating partial builds for a project, I usually diff the project folder latest revision against a production label. Then I have to manually add all the changed/added files to a temporary folder before copying it to production. Is there a way to automate this? For example, if we need to update a client website, we only want to se...

bleeding-edge libraries and precompiled headers sizes

Q1: My GCC precompiled header takes up 150 mb -- yes I'm using obscure TMP libraries from Boost. Anyone have any tips of benefiting from a PCH this large ? any makefile snippets which I could use to create a ram-disk(tmpfs) or something (transparently / on the fly) ? Q2: Is there some way I could daemonize GCC ? -- after all if it stays...

What algorithm does buildbot use to assign builders to slaves?

I have a buildbot with some builders and two slave machines. Some of the builders can run on one slave, and some of them can run on both machines. What algorithm will buildbot use to schedule the builds? Will it notice that some builders can run on just one slave and that it should assign those that can run on both slaves to the less d...
