I should clarify a bit here. I expected that for at least the build automation part that I would get out everything in the RTC component, including files that are at the component root (i.e. no parent directory). That is not the case. When the build workspace is created it only loads the directories but not the file that is at the same level (i.e. CommonFile.txt). If I create a workspace from the UI or command line specifying the creation of component root directory then the file shows up. My challenge is that the code in the directories reference CommonFile.txt so unless I can get that file to show up where its expected then I'll have to make a lot of code changes.

I have not tried to use the command line from my build scripts at this point. I'm just trying to get the build automation running based on how its being done in ClearCase with CruiseControl today.

Thanks,

Jeff

Nick,

Regardless of the build's load rules I do not get the files at the component root. I can log a bug against this if you determine I should.

Here's a test I just ran:

From the command line I get what I expect:
c:\jazz_workspaces\root_test>scm load _dmDyIOkaEd69vLBSXkwbcQ -r https://localhost:9443/jazz -u jeffhans -P jeffhans -d .

Using a basic Command Line build definition (without load rules) I don't get the rooted files. Using load rules doesn't change the behavior:

c:\jazz_buildspaces\csharp_bld>dir

Here are the results of my testing alternate solutions based on http://jazz.net/library/article/195.

Using the command line build without the Jazz engine I successfully created a build workspace with the expected top level files.

Using the Ant build without the Jazz engine I successfully created a build workspace but without the expected top level files.

This is the build.xml file I used:
<project>
<Typically>
<property>
<property>
<target>
</target>
<target>
<mkdir>
<teamFetch>
</target>
<taskdef>
<taskdef>
</taskdef>
<taskdef>
</project>


This is the resulting build workspace from the Ant build:
c:\jazz_buildspaces\test>dir
Directory of c:\jazz_buildspaces\test
12/17/2009 04:25 PM <DIR> .
12/17/2009 04:25 PM <DIR> ..

12/17/2009 04:25 PM <DIR> DragDrop
0 File(s) 0 bytes
6 Dir(s) 1,851,142,144 bytes free


This is what I had expected to see:
c:\jazz_buildspaces\scm_cmdline>dir
Directory of c:\jazz_buildspaces\scm_cmdline
12/17/2009 02:20 PM <DIR> .
12/17/2009 02:20 PM <DIR> ..

Based on this test it looks like there is an issue with the Ant fetch of source code.

Reposting the build.xml file with {} replacing <>.
