R – How to force multiple projects from one project in cruisecontrol.net

cruisecontrol.net

I am new to cruise control.net please help me with the following scenario

I need to force the other projects from one project. I know in the publisher part with the force build we can force the other projects. But my requirement is I want to force more than 2 projects but those projects should start one after the other this also can be solved by giving the queuePriority for the projects. Here we are having one limitation I want to force the builds individually also at that time it should not check for the queue.

Example
If I am forcing from BuildAll project it should build project A, Project B(after project A completion) & Project C( after completing project A & Project B)

If I am forcing Project A it should start, at same time if I am forcing Project B & Project C those also should build with out checking the project A completion.

Thanks in advance

In project B, you could add a filesystem source control element, pointing at Project A's output directory, set to trigger on modifications.

This would have a side effect that there's no way to build project A without it triggering project B to build also.

.net – Build order in CruiseControl.NET with project dependencies

Don't put the dependency in the CC.NET project settings. You need to control the project build order via the NAnt script. You don't have to build on a solution level, you can build on an individual project level.

<target name="Project1" depends="Projects2" description="Builds project 1">
     <msbuild>
        <executable>C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\MSBuild.exe</executable>
        <workingDirectory>C:\dev\ccnet</workingDirectory>
        <projectFile>CCNet.sln</projectFile>
        <buildArgs>/noconsolelogger /p:Configuration=Debug /v:diag</buildArgs>
        <targets>Build;Test</targets>
        <timeout>900</timeout>
        <logger>C:\Program Files\CruiseControl.NET\server\ThoughtWorks.CruiseControl.MsBuild.dll</logger>
     </msbuild>
</target>

<target name="Project2" depends="Projects3" description="Builds project 2">
     <msbuild>
        <executable>C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\MSBuild.exe</executable>
        <workingDirectory>C:\dev\ccnet</workingDirectory>
        <projectFile>CCNet.sln</projectFile>
        <buildArgs>/noconsolelogger /p:Configuration=Debug /v:diag</buildArgs>
        <targets>Build;Test</targets>
        <timeout>900</timeout>
        <logger>C:\Program Files\CruiseControl.NET\server\ThoughtWorks.CruiseControl.MsBuild.dll</logger>
     </msbuild>
</target>

<target name="Project3" description="Builds Project 3">
     <msbuild>
            <executable>C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\MSBuild.exe</executable>
            <workingDirectory>C:\dev\ccnet</workingDirectory>
            <projectFile>CCNet.sln</projectFile>
            <buildArgs>/noconsolelogger /p:Configuration=Debug /v:diag</buildArgs>
            <targets>Build;Test</targets>
            <timeout>900</timeout>
            <logger>C:\Program Files\CruiseControl.NET\server\ThoughtWorks.CruiseControl.MsBuild.dll</logger>
     </msbuild>
</target>

You can run your unit tests on an individual project level, so you shouldn't need to make duplicate runs over multiple projects.
