[Build] - Information about extending Post-Build options.
Hi, currently in RTC 2.0 we have two Post-Build options when defining
the ANT - Jazz Build Engine. I would like to be able to add a new one for Static Analysis results. I have been searching the web for information and samples about how to do such kind of extension with no luck. I just found this Wiki page: https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/BuildJavaProgrammingExamples but it doesn't cover this scenario. Is there any document or URL where I can find more information? Thanks in advance, Chemi. |

Hi Chemi, sorry for the delay.
You need to - Add an extension to the com.ibm.team.build.common.buildConfigurationElements extension point. This allows the user to choose your build participant when configuring a build definition. This typically goes in a .common plug-in, shared between the UI and build engine. It also lists which properties are set by your configuration. - Add an extension to the extension point: com.ibm.team.build.engine.buildEngineParticipants. This is the code that gets run as part of the build, and refers to the confiuration extension above. Specify POST_BUILD as the build phase. - Implement your participant class, extending com.ibm.team.build.engine.AbstractPostBuildParticipant Here are some snippets from the JUnit Publishing participant. From /com.ibm.team.build.common/plugin.xml:
From /com.ibm.team.build.engine/plugin.xml:

Thanks a lot Nick. I will try to get a closer look to your code.
I was trying to integrate Rational Software Analyzer with Build System of RTC. Currently I have done already with RTC Build built-in capabilities and ANT tasks but I wanted to get further in such integration and get something similar to Rational Build Forge integration (its own tab and content). I am not aware of any plans for that in RSAR product so I will try to play around with it although I am sure in the future there will be such official and supported integration. Thanks again, Chemi. |
