cruisecontrol

I echo Aaron. I'm working on the new version and config for exactly that 
reason.
The latest install & setup guide (2.1+) on the wiki teases me.
Is it as simple as adding an additional <project/> to the cfg?
Little help?

Hi Aaron/Randy.
 
A quick test has shown that in 2.1.3 you just have to declare mutiple
<project ....  >   ... </project> segments in your config.xml file, and
when you run cruisecontrol.sh it just manages them by itself.
 
There's nothing special you have to do.
 
From memory of past discussions, it does them synchronously, so the
second project won't run until the first project has finished running.
 
Hope it helps.
 
- Greg

That is what I do. I have a config.xml with 10 projects in it and they all 
work fine.

Problem is that there is no real way to control dependencies between the 
projects. ie: if project one changes it should be built and then project two 
should be built even if any of its files haven't changed. If both have 
changed cruise should build one before building two.

I include a filesystem reference in the modification set of project two that 
points to the products of project one (ie: to the jar files created) and this 
causes project two to be built after project one.

Real problem here is that if both change then cruise has no idea what order to 
build them in. It will get it right eventually if you have the filesystem ref 
but it might build two then one and then two again. This can become a very 
lengthy rebuild process if you have 10 projects!

Cruise needs to know that if files change in project two, to check project one 
first before building and to build project one first if anything has changed 
before building project two.

I would second that. I am experiencing the exact same pattern.

There might be a workaround, but not necessarily a clean one: Use a single
"grand" project that knows internally in its build files about dependencies
and builds only the required pieces. Yet this is not the best approach when
there are several unrelated final targets that all depend on the same lib
project.

I would be interested in a talk on the possibility to include some sort of
dependency check right into CC.
