Can we compile code in Rational Build Forge or can we get executable from Build Forge?
Hi all,
I am working with Rational Build Forge.
Can any one tell me whether Build Forge is able to convert builds or code into executable?
or
Can we perform code compilation in Build Forge ?
If yes what are the possible ways of doing it?
Thank you in advance.
Warm regards,

Hello,
If you think about Build Forge spawning a shell to run a command. Then you can use it to create executable. I wont do the whole thing here but why not have Build Forge run something like this:
jar cvfe MyJarName.jar MyMainClass *.class
The list goes on right? Anything you can launch from a shell Build Forge can do. If you want to use it to trigger the compiling of code and such, you can. Build Forge in itself is not a c compiler or anything. But you can pretty much run any manual task within a project and automate those steps as well as schedule the automation of those steps.
Hope this helps.
