Excluding Files when Packaging
Hi,
We are trying to build an automated process where we are using Client Side APIs of RTC to perform build - package - deploy (UCD). At some point, there are instance we are to exclude several files during deployment. Is there a way to access or send the list of Files to be excluded using the API thru properties? RIght now, the only way we can add exclusion is to go the manual way of triggering packaging and going into the wizzard and exclude files 1 by 1 which I find it very slow and primitive.
Accepted answer
We've solved the problem.
So apparently, the documentation provided by is NOT correct.
We've added this Element in our build property prior to packaging:
team.package.common.exclude.binaries
Description says:
Resource filters to exclude: Specify a generic filter or a specific data set and member by name. To specify a generic filter, indicate the data set name and member name pattern in the following format:
DATA.SET.NAME(MBR) OBJTYPE(*)
To specify a specific data set and member by name, indicate the data set name and member name in the following format:
DSN1(MBR1)
A list of resource filters can be specified with each separated by a comma.
But the correct separator is Semi-colon, not Comma. So we've been trying the incorrect format.
