Hi all, looking into the idea of a build server. Looked at CruiseControl (because there is a plugin) and SCons.
Here's my dilemma, everything so far seems to detail one of two options: building for/on Linux, or some other OS level, or of course is Java centric(almost exclusive), as most Java stuff is. My products are embedded devices, which, for the most part don't have an OS, or if they do, aren't running embedded linux, and never will be running Java. therefore I need to be able to easily specify the compiler to use, IAR for example, the MicroChip PIC tools, etc....for each project, and all the other project related jazz. right now, we build the stuff on the desktop, and I want that to go away, since we can't truly reproduce the build environment, say 8 years from now. (do YOU have a copy of window 3.1 with THESE specific DLLs? so I can install the IDE and build the same binary?..type scenario) Seeing as I would ideally like it to play nice with trac I thought I would ask for help. We also don't have anyone that can be dedicated to managing the build server on a continuous basis, so I need something an idiot like me, or a barrel of monkeys could take our multiple "desktop" setups, and put them up there and automagically have something work. My guess is, all the tools I have looked at will do it just fine, just as soon as the tutorial mentions ANT, and JARS and JavaDoc etc., my brain reboots. I can also probably go with something proprietary if the cost is reasonable, and the trade off is out of the box easy and reliability. Sorry for cluttering the mailing list for something unrelated, flame me as needed. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Trac Users" group.
