Hello again.
The Maven ClearCase plugin doesn't help in it self - in that it is mostly a
wrapper
over the Ant "cc" target-set.
They may help you to operate on, for instance, a "build number" property
file or the likes.
The CI tools needs to be able to get modification notificatios from the SCM
subsystem, in
order to schedule builds for any given component.
Currently we're using the "pull" method (for each N minutes, scan view X
for changes on
branch Y) in CruiseControl, but I'm led to believe work is underway to
support dynamic
modification events ("push") from ClearCase.
This would possibly be done with triggers, but I'm not too sure about that.
