You mentioning project.xml, do you use an old version of Maven? Or did you mean pom.xml?
IMHO your problem cannot be easily solved by a CI tool itself. But if your Maven configuration is correct, Continuum will build the dependent projects automatically for you. In your example, if the dependencies are correctly reflected in the pom.xml's and there is a change in project A, project B,C,D and E will be automatically build. Maven has also the possibility to define a explicit parent project.

I am the Configuration manager for an IT firm, Currently we a using anthill build management server for all our build related purposes. We are looking to implement Continuous Integration in our development life cycle. Currently the building process is done manually. Suppose there are 5 projects A,B,C,D,E and E is the parent project and the dependency chain does like this: A->B->C->D->E What we do is we build A first update project.xml of B to the latest version of A, build B so on and so forth untill all dependent projects get built and finally parent project gets built. What i am thinking is automating the entire process i.e. automatically finding out dependencies and building them first and then updating the version of parent projects and building them again to a newer version. Would continuum do this for me? If not is here any other CI tool that does this?
