How to arrange muti build definition

I have created 5 build definitions, I want to build all of them in order. How can I arrange that? If there is a function like build queue, while I add the 5 definitions into the queue by once and in order and then they will be built automatically?

Now I have to select each definition manually to request build in order, and next time I have to do the same things...

This kind of functionality is provided by the BuildForge build agent,
not the JBE build agent.

If you defined these as 5 ant tasks, rather than 5 build definitions,
then you could of course control their sequencing (by invoking all 5
from one build definition).

Cheers,
Geoff

Right, but my script must be executed by command line, so I have to use BuildForge build agent.

Does BuildForge build agent need license? I'd like to install one...

Note that you can execute command line scripts from the Jazz Build engine.

But WRT your actual question, yes, you do need a license to use
BuildForge (it is not included as part of your RTC license).
