Jeremy,

Splendid article. Stuff I've been thinking about a lot recently too.

Just one useful quote from the Ant manual:

<property environment="env"/>
<echo message="Number of Processors = ${env.NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS}"/>
<echo message="ANT_HOME is set to = ${env.ANT_HOME}"/>

With this, you can get at ${env.COCOON_HOME}, etc.

Regards, Upayavira

Interesting. I'd rather integrate my build into Cocoon's, rather than the other way around, and now I can see that all I've got to do is stick files into a confpatch folder, which is really great.



Sure, but some people prefer to integrate Cocoon into their build - and generally want to do so with as little "building" of Cocoon as possible. Either way works well.




With this recent change to XConfPatchTask, I have been able to refactor the way we build our Projects 'into' Cocoon.


I attempt to describe the process here:
