Building with Jazz Team Build

adi hasan (86●1●7●4) | asked Mar 21 '11, 8:52 a.m.

Hai, Friends

i need your help..

i want to build the java application using RTC. I have successfully built the application but i don't find the feature/tab to download the result of build (.jar or .war).

the standard tabs that i got are Overview, Activities, and Log.

i read the article from IBM telling that that is the standard result for building and the additional tabs can be added depending on what build script contributes to the build result. I used the standard standard build.xml, i generated it with:
1. In the Package Explorer view, right-click a project; then click Export.
2. In the Export wizard, on the Select page, under General, select Ant Buildfiles and click Next.
3. On the Export page, ensure that your project and all check boxes are selected and click Finish.

the additional tabs that i see in the example are Overview, Activities, Log, compilation, tests, download, and properties.

and my question is how can I generate the build result with the download tab or any additional tab?

Please help me.. Thank you very much

Hi,

It seems like you want to use the Ant build toolkit task artifactFilePublisher to publish your .jar/.war on the Downloads page of the build result.

The documentation at http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/clmhelp/v3r0/index.jsp (search on artifactFilePublisher) has more information, but the snippet below contains what this statement would look like in your Ant build file.


&lt;artifactFilePublisher repositoryAddress=&quot;$&#123;repositoryAddress&#125;&quot;

		                       userId=&quot;$&#123;userId&#125;&quot;

		                       password=&quot;$&#123;password&#125;&quot;

		                       buildResultUUID=&quot;$&#123;buildResultUUID&#125;&quot;

		                       filePath=&quot;download.zip&quot;

		                       label=&quot;a download&quot; /&gt;

I can see a potential problem in your jbe commandline, it may not be a problem now but could be later. You should consider creating a new user that just handles builds (I created one called "build"). They should have a Build license (there are 50 supplied with RTC - then you don't use up your Developer licenses). Then add the "build" user to the project as a team member.

You also need to create a directory on your build machine - for "build" to grab the files from version control and do the build.

There is also a nice video on how to use RTC to package and deploy a build that might help:

Hi,

Did you get a failed build when running with the copied snippet of XML? The reason I ask is that you'll need to change the 'download.zip' value to the location of the .war/.jar that you want to publish to the build result. I'm thinking that you may see a statement in the log that looks like the following error.

"filePath" contains path to non-existent file "C:\temp\fetched\proj1\data\artifacts\download.zip".

Hi,

It looks to me like you may need to change your build.xml to specify other targets to run or explicitly specify the targets to run when invoking Ant. I assume that currently you are running the default target of "build".


&lt;project basedir=&quot;.&quot; default=&quot;build&quot; name=&quot;prelude project&quot;&gt;

The "build" target has dependencies on the "build-subprojects" and "build-project" targets, which do appear to run in your logs.


&lt;target depends=&quot;build-subprojects,build-project&quot; name=&quot;build&quot;/&gt;

The "build-subprojects" does not have any statements to perform.


&lt;target name=&quot;build-subprojects&quot;/&gt;

That leaves the "build-project" target to perform work. It has a dependency on the "init" target and has compile statements. If you don't have the source code already in the directory, then it's probably not finding anything to compile.


&lt;target depends=&quot;init&quot; name=&quot;build-project&quot;&gt;

&lt;echo message=&quot;$&#123;ant.project.name&#125;&#58; $&#123;ant.file&#125;&quot;/&gt;

&lt;javac debug=&quot;true&quot; debuglevel=&quot;$&#123;debuglevel&#125;&quot; destdir=&quot;bin&quot; source=&quot;$&#123;source&#125;&quot; target=&quot;$&#123;target&#125;&quot;&gt;

&lt;src path=&quot;src&quot;/&gt;

&lt;classpath refid=&quot;prelude project.classpath&quot;/&gt;

&lt;/javac&gt;

&lt;/target&gt;

The main thing that I see is that you're not running the target to publish any artifacts to the build result.
