Issue : How to make four build files run in a particluar order and perform nightly build

[Renisha P]

Hi,

I have four build files . I need to run them in a particular order .Also , I
want to perform nightly builds and also I should be able to execute them
manually in day time in the same order .

Regards,

[Brett Porter]

Currently Continuum only uses the dependencies in a Maven project to
determine the order.

Are these Maven projects with dependencies on each other?

Hi Brett -

Could you describe the dependency ordering in more detail?

Does Continuum trigger dependent builds automatically? If project A depends
on B, does a change in B automatically trigger a build of A? If so, does
this happen across project groups, or only within a group?

Yes, I believe so.

I think it is only within a group.

Continuum trigger a build of A if it is in the same schedule even if it is
under an other project group. If A isn't in the same schedule, Continuum
will build A in the next A scheduled build even if A doesn't have src
changes.

It is too bad that this doesn't work across groups because that would be
very useful. In my company we have a lot of shared components that are in
one group. It would be great if all projects that depend on one of these
shared components could automatically be rebuilt.

I am having a build order issue as well for two projects that are in the
same group.  Project A has a dependency on Project B, but A is always
built first (alphabetical order?).  

I cannot use the Group build definition because the relative location of
the build files are different for each project.  To get around this, I
have a project build definition for each project that run on the same
schedule.  This seems to break the build order.

Any suggestions?

Continuum trigger a build of A if it is in the same schedule even if it
is under an other project group. If A isn't in the same schedule,
Continuum will build A in the next A scheduled build even if A doesn't
have src changes.

As I said in my previous post, it works across groups if they are attached
in the same schedule.

Are you sure you don't have a circular dependency somwhere between all your
projects?

Definitely no circular dependency.  Same schedule, different build
definitions (not using group build def - to disable I set the schedule
to NEVER).  

My hunch is that it is due to the different build definitions.  I
defined one for each of the two projects, and both are using the same
schedule (HOURLY).  

This implementation was due to not being able to change the build file
(or more specifically, their relative location) for each project for the
group build definition.  Seems like a limitation because each project in
a group can use a different SCM, but their build files need to have the
same relative with respect to their SCM URL to use the same build
definition.
