Are there SCM-like source control tasks for Ant?

Vladislav Ponomarev (1●2●2) | asked Nov 15 '12, 8:29 a.m.

Hello,

I'm curious if there are Ant tasks in RTC to handle source control operations. In other words, I'm looking for tasks that provide the same functionality as SCM tool does.

At the very least, are there tasks to check-in and deliver changes and to create a snapshots?

Thank you!

You can check https://jazz.net/library/article/195 (Mostly with build)

Also another option is that you could call SCM tools via ANT as-is (EXEC)

Thank you Karthik, I've seen this article.

Problem is that when running such build scripts from within RTC, I get an error code 27 from <exec>, message is "Another RCP application is running in this sandbox".

When you say "when running such build scripts from within RTC", is it that you run the build scripts from the RTC Eclipse client? If so, can you confirm if the sandbox used in the build scripts is not open in the RTC Eclipse client?

Thanks,

I downloaded the "Plain Java Client Libraries API documentation" from:
 https://jazz.net/downloads/rational-team-concert/releases/5.0.1?p=allDownloads
...and I noticed there is a package named "com.ibm.team.build.ant.task" with lots abstract and concrete tasks.  So if there are already Ant tasks, then why should we have to resort to doing "exec" of the scm command-line tool? 

Of course the issue is that mere API Javadoc is not sufficient to understand how to incorporate these Ant tasks into a build script - so would there be any detailed documentation on the RTC SCM Ant tasks?
