RE: [Cruisecontrol-devel] SourceControl.setProperty

[Jeffrey F. <jt...@ag...>]

1. property and propertyOnDelete are used (if the sourcecontrol implements
them) to specify the property to pass along to Ant if modifications (or
deletions) are detected.  So an example might be:

<modificationset>
  <vss vsspath="/Project/subprojectA" property="a.changed"
propertyOnDelete="a.has.deletion" ... />
  <vss vsspath="/Project/subprojectB" property="b.changed"
propertyOnDelete="b.has.deletion" ... />
</modificaitonset>

Then in the Ant script you might do something where you use the properties
to only pull the subprojects that changed, and if there's a deletion you
might do a clean pull.

Or something like that.

3. I put added the UOException so if someone tried to use the attributes in
their config.xml it would be obvious that they aren't yet supported.

Subject: [Cruisecontrol-devel] SourceControl.setProperty


Hi

1. Can anyone explain to me the purpose of

public void setProperty(String property);
public void setPropertyOnDelete(String property);

on the interface SourceControl.java?

2. I did not find any usages of these two methods except in test classes??

3. SVN.java throws UnsupportedOperationException in these two methods??

Hopefully, an answer to question 1 will solve my confusion with 2 and 3 as
well.

Thanks for your support!

Best regards, Etienne
