Hello, 
 
We are planning on implementing the following automated procedure using 
Fossology and would like to find out if this is a plausible solution or if 
there is a better approach of doing the automation.
 
1. Use cp2foss to upload files for scanning.
2. Implement a job monitoring utility program to determine when job has 
completed. One 
    way we are thinking of doing this is to use a database trigger. The reason 
we do not 
    want to depend on the e-mail is because multiple e-mails are sent out for 
each sub-job 
    associated with an uploaded file - Is this correct?
3. When a job has completed, extract the data results into our own database.. 
We hope we 
    could read the fossology database to get the license types of an uploaded 
file out.
4. Interpret the results from the database and produce a BIRT report.
5. We are still lacking an automated way to delete uploaded files to make 
spaces for new 
    uploaded files. Any ideas on this?
 
Meanwhile, is there an automated way in which HP using Fossology to scan its 
build for licenses and if so, how is it done?  Any help is greatly appreciated. 
 
Thank You
