getNextTeamBuildRequest - should it have a timeout parameter
I assume this task is meant for implementing your own build engine that
waits for requests from an RTC repository and then runs or dispatches a build process. I'm fairly new to Ant and not sure how to go about this. Can someone suggest how it would be used to achieve this? I' surprised there's no timeout value so you can specify how long to wait. Thanks, Brian |
One answer
The task does not wait for a request. It checks for one. If none is found,
it returns immediately and the property name you specified in requestUUIDProperty will not be defined. The help content is not quite right on this. I've created work item https://jazz.net/jazz/resource/itemName/com.ibm.team.workitem.WorkItem/59649 If you want "build engine" behavior, you'd need to repeatedly invoke this task (for example, invoking ant from cron). Admittedly, we have few if any real world examples of using this task. But the intent is that you can use it to process requests and then run builds for them using the other tasks. --- Ryan Manwiller Jazz Team |
