Hi, I use Ant 1.5 with CruiseControl 2.0.1 and wanted to get more information when a build fails. CruiseControl uses the XML output from Ant and in particular the /build/stacktrace element to determine the cause of a failed build. I wanted to see the project, target and task too.
I made some modifications to the buildFinished() method in XmlLogger where it wrote the stacktrace to write the project name, target name and task name associated with the event if it included an exception, but it only ever filled out the project name. I added similar code so that the targetFinished() method would embed its own stacktrace and then I get two copies of the stacktrace element, one under build and the new one under target with the project name and target name. Again, I added similar code to the taskFinished() method and now I get three stacktrace elements and the one under task showed with the project name, target name and task name. So either the information is removed from the BuildEvent object or a new object is created. I added an attribute containing the hash of the BuildEvent object and it seems that a new object is being created each time. So a couple of questions: Does it make any sense to have multiple stacktrace elements in a single XML log file, or will one exception be guaranteed to halt the build? If one exception is guaranteed to halt the build, is there anyway that I can get this information into the stack element beneath the top level object nicely? I thought of making exception null after writing the details but that would involve making exception public or adding a setException() method to BuildEvent, neither of which seem like nice options, or perhaps a clearException() method that would just set the value to null. I haven't included code examples or XML examples here, but I would be happy to supply them upon request and contribute the code once I've solved this problem.
