Referencing information in builds specified in a run parameter [Hudson]

Day 1 with using Hudson for our CI build. Slowly but surely getting up to speed. My question is about run parameters. I've seen that I can use them to reference a particular run of a particular project - that's all fine. What I don't understand (and can't find any documentation on - there's nothing at Parameterized Build) is how I refe...

Automatically push gem to RubyGems.org from a Continuous Integration server

Hi, I have a Continuous Integration / Continuous Deployment scenario where I want my build script to push a ruby gem directly from a public Build Server (teamcity.codebetter.com) to RubyGems.org.

In .NET(C#) is there any advantage/disadvantage to go with debug/release build for unit testing? Which target configuration do you usually use for unit testing on a build server? Does it matter? What about code coverage (for this one I'm guessing debug versions are needed). ...

Netbeans lack of SVN Add

I've been driving myself crazy over the past few days over this one. We've just finished setting up a Hudson Continuous-Integration server.

Is it sensible to use a ramdisk on a build server?

At my company we are currently researching various strategies for speeding up our CI builds. We have profiled our builds and determined that we are constrained by an I/O bottleneck.

MSBuild to run unit tests

Can a Hudson job poll a SCM without pulling code down?

I have a job that I want to run every time a commit is made to a repository. I want to avoid pulling this code down, I only want the notification build trigger. So, is there either a way to not pull down certain repositories in your SCM upon a build or a way to poll things that aren't in the SCM for a build? ...

MSBuild calling incorrect version of csc.exe

I am using team city to call a nant script, currently this nant script is very simplistic and only calls an msbuild task on a single project in the solution. The build is failing, it looks like msbuild 3.5 is being called, but it is incorrectly calling the csc.exe from the .net 2.0 folder. Since we are using .net 3.5 language features t...
