Simple CruiseControl + Ant example

I always have a hard time finding online a simple example of CruiseControl + Ant file whenever I need to quickly setup a Continuous Integration server for a project. So here is the configuration I had set up for the open source project TSP (Transport Sample Protocol) :

<br /><cruisecontrol><br /> <project name="tsp" buildafterfailed="false"><br /><br /> <listeners><br /> <currentbuildstatuslistener file="logs/${project.name}/status.txt"><br /> </listeners><br /><br /> <bootstrappers><br /> <cvsbootstrapper localworkingcopy="projects/${project.name}/make" file="cc-build.xml"><br /> </bootstrappers><br /><br /> <modificationset quietperiod="30"><br /> <cvs localworkingcopy="projects/${project.name}"><br /> </modificationset><br /><br /> <schedule interval="300"><br /> <ant anthome="apache-ant-1.6.5" buildfile="projects/${project.name}/make/cc-build.xml"><br /> </schedule><br /><br /> <log><br /> <merge dir="projects/${project.name}/target/test-results"><br /> </log><br /><br /> <publishers><br /> <htmlemail mailhost="smtp.blablablablabla.fr" reportsuccess="fixes" returnaddress="foo@blablablablabla.fr" subjectprefix="[CruiseControl]" skipusers="true" spamwhilebroken="true" xsldir="webapps/cruisecontrol/xsl" css="webapps/cruisecontrol/css/cruisecontrol.css"><br /> <always address="foo@blablablablabla.fr"><br /> <always address="bar@blablablablabla.fr"><br /> </htmlemail><br /> </publishers><br /> <br /> </project><br /></cruisecontrol><br /><br /><br />
For TSP the Ant build file was there to trigger the C build :
<br /><project name="tsp" default="build" basedir=".."><br /><br /> <property name="build.dir" value="tsp_cc_build"><br /> <property name="tsp.dir" value=".."><br /><br /> <macrodef name="cmake"><br /> <attribute name="flags" default=""><br /> <sequential><br /> <exec dir="${build.dir}" executable="cmake" failonerror="true"><br /> <arg line="@{flags} ${tsp.dir}"><br /> </exec><br /> </sequential><br /> </macrodef><br /><br /> <macrodef name="make"> <br /> <sequential><br /> <exec dir="${build.dir}" executable="make" failonerror="true"><br /> </sequential><br /> </macrodef> <br /><br /> <macrodef name="cvs-update"><br /> <attribute name="workDir"><br /> <sequential><br /> <exec dir="@{workDir}" executable="cvs" failonerror="true"><br /> <arg line="update -dP "><br /> </exec><br /> </sequential><br /> </macrodef><br /><br /> <target name="build" depends="update"><br /> <antcall target="vanilla"><br /> <antcall target="xmlrpc"><br /> </target><br /><br /> <target name="vanilla" depends="clean"><br /> <cmake/><br /> <make/><br /> </target><br /><br /> <target name="xmlrpc" depends="clean"><br /> <cmake flags="-DBUILD_XMLRPC=ON"><br /> <make/><br /> </target><br /><br /> <target name="clean"><br /> <delete dir="${build.dir}"><br /> <mkdir dir="${build.dir}"><br /> </target><br /><br /> <target name="update"><br /> <cvs-update workdir="${basedir}"><br /> </target><br /><br /></project><br /><br />
For TSP the setup instruction were :

• install a binary distribution of cruise control
• replace the config.xml file with the previous file. Change the email addresses of the 'returnaddress', and the 'always address'. You can add as many 'always address' as you want
• go to the 'projects' directory of the cruisecontrol install and perform an anonymous check out of tsp :

<br />cd projects<br />cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.savannah.nongnu.org:/sources/tsp co tsp<br />
you can test the build without cruise control if Ant is available :
go to projects/tsp/make and launch :
<br />ant -f cc-build.xml<br />
If everything is OK, with the build, run the cruisecontrol.sh script. you're done,
cruisecontrol is up and running.
