Re: FW: nightly composite build running on modifications instead of at certain time

Yep, going to read them. Here's a link for others. http://www.build-doctor.com/2008/07/25/cruisecontrol-best-practices-publish-with-a-publisher/

Happy to help. The bootstrapper/publisher model is very powerful.  I've written about them before on my blog.

Best,

Julian.

Thanks much because the svnbootstrapper was the perfect tool for the job. I removed the composite builder after which my time property started working. I think the problem was the composite builder combined with the time property rather than <schedule> combined with requireMods set to true. The lesson learned is that the bootstrappers element can handle all the pre-build updating. There's no reason to try and accomplish it with composite builds or dependent builds.

Hi,

So I'd like the build to start at 8:00, check for changes and then run the ant target if there are changes. But the build is not waiting till the time property to check. What is wrong?

I'm not sure that you'll manage to make the <schedule> play nicely when requireModifications is set to true:

"CruiseControl allows the user to schedule an arbitrary number of builds, either on interval or triggered to run at a given date/time, as well as pause intervals during which no builds will be run. Builds will only run if modifications are found, a build is forced from JMX interface, or the <project><http://cruisecontrol.sourceforge.net/main/configxml.html#project> has requireModifications set to false. "

BTW, you might find that this element:

       <ant anthome="${anthome.dir}" buildfile="${antfilesupdater.dir}${antupdaterbuild.file}" target="update" uselogger="true" time="2000" timeout="900"></ant>

Fits better as a bootstrapper.

Best

J.


Thanks,
Adam
