Looking for a Build Team perspective

2007-05-23 Thread Ashwin E

I'm not looking from a developer's perspective,i'm looking from a build team
perspective...Dev teanm continously submits new/updated files and I need to
deploy it into the application.I've identified the process that i can
implement using Maven-Continnum...I'll list the process...correct me or add
your inputs to it..

1.Dev checks in files into CVS
2.Maven runs :deploy goal, and deploys into the remote location
3.Now that the new/updated files have been deployed.How do I restart the
server?So that the changes can be reflected?

Is the process correct?

I'm looking at Maven-Continuum from a developer perspective.I'm looking at it
from a build team perspective.my aim is to automate this process,deploying
the patches that have been applied into CVS.I've to just use these files and
update the application.that is all I've to do.I dont have bother about being
a developer.looking at it from a build team perspective

2007-05-23 Thread Ashwin E

If I undestood your answer correctly.Continuum checks out sources from the
cvs location provided in the  section of the maven project's
pom.xml..just a side question,why do i need to specifiy the 
section,can't continnum decipher where to check out the files from the
location of pom.xml, does it need to know where to checkout the sources as
well. i mean isnt the repeating the location again...

i've a second doubt.my project already has the files in cvs,now how do
integrate so that I can use Maven from now on?

Also, since Maven project resides on CVS and the files are currently either
java or jsp files..is it possible to check them out...and then do the
necessary tasks of compiling,packaging after the checkout has happened

also where do the checked out files go to?and how do i deploy on it on my
application server?

finally,yeah my team is working on different branches...here whenever team
submits new patches, they specify the branch and then the tag of the
patches..tags can be anyhting the team wants..how do i allow Continnum to
extract the files from cvs depending on the tags

So you're saying that my maven project should be in the source repository?A
source repository here is CVS or SubVersion?

And to the 3rd question what i mean is.In the application there are constant
requests for changes and enhancements.so dev team submits changes in CVS
with the required tags.which're then checked out with the tags and then
deployed into the application.how do i do this sort of process using
maven/continuum?

Basic Questions

2007-05-23 Thread Ashwin E

I'm a beginner in Maven and Continnum and even to the entire build process.
My questions are mudane and pretty ridiculous but still help me out.

Here they're

1.Where does pom.xml reside?CVS or local machine?
2.Where do I create a Maven project?
3.How can I checkout the new update files from CVS,how can I specify the
tags?Every time a developer sumbits changes in CVS and tags them,how do I
checkout it out?Where do I specify the tags?
4.Also how do i make changes to the existing application with these new
modifications?

Please Answer these.
