Hi Chris: [ad] Within our XLr8Installer, part of our complete Eclipse plug-ins for U2 environment, you can build a install script through our XLr8Installer plug-in for Java. We use this tool all of the time to automate our installations. In fact we can go from Universe to Unidata, or Unidata to Universe, or Universe to Universe, or Unidata to Unidata. We you special technology built in to UniObjects so our copies are very fast. We can copy the source code from any destination to a your target machine compile and catalog the programs.
Just to give you an idea. It took us 6 to 8 hours to install our payroll system via the internet: create files, copy dictionaries. compile dictionaries, create indexes, copy data, copy programs, compile programs and catalog programs. With the current version of the XLr8Installer we can do it 7 minutes. If you have downloaded our tools you can go to Help/U2logic's XLr8 Tools/XLr8Installer for complete documentation on the tool. You will only spend nothing to try it and $99 to keep using it.

Hello, We just recently changed our entire repository from Source Safe to SVN and we're now using hudson to automate our builds. This works great for Java since we can simply compile ALL the programs using the JAVA compiler in a batch file. Universe however seems to require us sign into a Universe account and then compile/catalog all our programs. Is there a way you can compile all programs in a folder from a batch file? We need to do the same to CATALOG all our programs. Here's why: We submit all of our changes to 1 central SVN repository, when we want to 'release' the object code to the production server it runs on a different UniVerse region and totally different server, so we have the need to compile all the programs at once in the build, then CATALOG all of the programs to the production universe region. Is there an easy way to do this? Right now we have a batch file that logins into our Java webapp, then it logs into universe from the webapp so that it can compile/catalog but there has to be an easier way. _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
