Hi, We have a centralised source check-in clearcase where all the code is checked in. This is place from where all the code is built and this build version is the one that is used to be deployed to customers.
My questions i think will be easier to understand if you take JPortal as an example: 1) I notice the JPortal source code contains only the source files it needs on top of jetspeed. Later Ant is used to merge this code into final jportal war which contains the Jportal's required classes,templates,property files and jetspeed classes,templates, property files. Does that mean Ant is the only way i can use to build the war file? 2) In clearcase we have a way to build wars and i want to stick to that procedure as much as possible. Is there a way i can do out with ANT and still come up with a war file that is the same as that i get when i use ANT? I would appreciate any help in this regard. We are considering to use Jetspeed portal for hosting our portlets and i'm trying to come up with a list of items that need to be addressed before plunging in head-long into the development of portlets. And this item was on the top of my list? Thanks, Archana
