Re: [NAnt-users] How to setup two projects with a subset of common files?

[Bob A. <Bob...@am...>]

Don't you want a build of common to trigger a build of Project1 and Project2? If so, you can set up a ccnet trigger to do that. Use a project trigger on Project1 & Project2. They will both trigger on a successful build of Common. Now, if you have Project1 and Project2 in the same queue that will keep them from building at the same time.

Simple and no need to change and build scripts.

I'm implementing this idea. However, some questions.

Won't this build CommonSW twice, once when Project1 is built and next when Project2 is built, in the case where I build both projects? I really want to just build CommonSW once in this case.

Also if projects are in the same queue, does that imply a serial build or parallel build?

Easiest way to get you want would be..

Create two nant files.

File1: builds commonSW & Project1
File2: builds commonSW & Project2

Setup 2 ccnet projects, each one pointing at one of the nant files

Put both projects in the same queue
