scm:update-project will fetch changed source from CVS. So I would imagine you could put that into a build. We use Cruise Control here and we get maven do do all the "heavy lifting". CC fetches one file (project.xml) and checks the repository for changes; if it finds them maven updates the projec

You can use the exec task or the java task it doesn't really matter. The big problem is that the anthill app doesn't convert maven return codes into a 0 or !0 so that's why you need to wrapper your call to maven. I know the anthill pro version handles maven the same way so that wouldn't fix this

Even in the pro version you need to wrap the maven call with an ant target since anthill pro doesn't look for the various maven return codes it only looks for 1 or a 0 based on success or failure. I am using the java task instead of the exec task. -Scott -Original Message- From: CNI [
