Build Question: Invoking a Ant script from SCM


Aaron Cohen (8207851) | asked Mar 20 '08, 9:36 a.m.

When creating a Build definition, you need to specify the path to an Ant
build file on the build machine. Is there a way to point to an Ant
script in SCM instead of the local filesystem?

Thanks!

Absolutely. After you've configured the build fetch destination on the Jazz SCM page you then configure on Ant page the location of the fetched build file. For example:

/home/builds/sandbox (this is the fetch destination in which the files will be loaded from Jazz SCM)

/home/builds/sandbox/releng/build.xml (this is the actual build file, it's store in a project called releng and is in the Jazz repository)
