How to organize the folder structure in build definition

0
W Ye (26●10●7) | asked Nov 02 '11, 9:57 a.m.
I have multiple components in one stream. To build, I need to get source code in certain way.

The source code is like below
Component_A
A_dir1
A_dir1_dir1
A_dir1_dir2
A_dir2
Component_B
B_dir1
B_dir2

To run the build, I need the code to be loaded as
A_dir1_dir1
B_dir1
B_dir2

I did some research on Component Load Rules, but did not find a good way to resolve this issue. Is it possible?

Isn't "Component Load Rules" there?

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/clmhelp/v3r0m1/topic/com.ibm.team.build.doc/topics/r_scm_build_loadrules.html

Worst case, just load everything and let your build script handle it.

The problem is:

I have identical top level folder name in both component. So if load from the top level, RTC will complain one component is being overwritten by anther.

This is a legacy system migrated to RTC, it is not easy to reorganize the code structure due to the whole build/release history. So I am looking for a way to compromise the gap at code loading.

Also, I tried to created the load rule in each component.
In the first component, the file contains:
RootFolderName=/modules/thirdparty

The second component, the file contains
RootFolderName=/modules

The third component, the file contains
RootFolderName=/build_system
RootFolderName=/installer


I am getting error message from the build.

 I have the same error because the load rule put the content of "Main Folder" at the root extraction folder and ignore the "Main folder".

I want to solve it too... :(
