I have the following
target
<target name="perform-expert-regression-tests" description="Regression test
Expert functionality">
<!-- Run the IL tests and compare -->
<foreach item="String" in="IC,IL,PI" delim="," property="KB">
<!-- Everything in xds results needs to be read write -->
<property name="ovg.commandline" value='-rulebase "\\${expert.server}\${expert.server.output.share}\Prb\${KB}.nrb" -input "xds investigations" -output "xds results" -filter "*.xml" -norecurse -cfh DefcareCustomFunctions.NET.CustomFunctionHandler,DefcareCustomFunctions.NET -outcomeset "${KB}outcomes.xml"' />
<exec program="outcomevaluegenerator"
commandline="${ovg.commandline}"
workingdir="${build.root.dir}\SupportFiles\ExpertRegressionTesting\${KB}" failonerror="true"/>
<!-- Run the IL tests and compare -->
<foreach item="String" in="IC,IL,PI" delim="," property="KB">
<!-- Everything in xds results needs to be read write -->
<property name="ovg.commandline" value='-rulebase "\\${expert.server}\${expert.server.output.share}\Prb\${KB}.nrb" -input "xds investigations" -output "xds results" -filter "*.xml" -norecurse -cfh DefcareCustomFunctions.NET.CustomFunctionHandler,DefcareCustomFunctions.NET -outcomeset "${KB}outcomes.xml"' />
<exec program="outcomevaluegenerator"
commandline="${ovg.commandline}"
workingdir="${build.root.dir}\SupportFiles\ExpertRegressionTesting\${KB}" failonerror="true"/>
<exec program="outcomecomparator"
commandline='"${build.root.dir}\SupportFiles\ExpertRegressionTesting\${KB}\Base results" "${build.root.dir}\SupportFiles\ExpertRegressionTesting\${KB}\xds results" -output "outcomes\main.xml" -norecurse'
workingdir="${build.root.dir}\SupportFiles\ExpertRegressionTesting\${KB}" failonerror="true"/>
</foreach>
</target>
commandline='"${build.root.dir}\SupportFiles\ExpertRegressionTesting\${KB}\Base results" "${build.root.dir}\SupportFiles\ExpertRegressionTesting\${KB}\xds results" -output "outcomes\main.xml" -norecurse'
workingdir="${build.root.dir}\SupportFiles\ExpertRegressionTesting\${KB}" failonerror="true"/>
</foreach>
</target>
Basically i would
like to build the command line dynamically depending whether certain files
exists.
As far as i am aware
there is no way of doing string comparisons ? or string
manipulation
eg
<if
test="${KB}=''PI"> or <if
fileexists="${build.root.dir}\SupportFiles\ExpertRegressionTesting\${KB}\${KB}outcomes.xml">
<property name="ovg.commandline" value="${ovg.commandline} -outcomeset
"${KB}outcomes.xml"" />
<if>
At the moment out
test harness result generating programs are okay if the file doesn't exist and
continue but for how long i can't be sure (I don't have control over
them)
I'm pretty
sure I could do this via cscript but would like to keep it simple and
maintainable.
If anyone can lead
me to the correct path would be most appreciated.
Also would be
interested if anyone had any pointers on failure handling.
I inherited some
nant scripts builds about 4 projects but all are related to each other and share
some components.
What i want to do is
if a certain part of one component in particular fails to build i don't want to
fail the build, but i do want to know about it. All scripts include the
same nant error script on-error.build which emails the whole team when something
really critical happens. But what i would like to do is when a certain
component fails is just email myself and back out the changes i have pending
(auto-code gen and build incrementing).
All files also
include the same build-constants.build which define the error handling
conditions and includes the target for error handling for
onerror.
Is it possible to
override the on-error property per build script.
Eg if i define a
different on-error target in that particular file does it override the global
on-error handler and in fact should it.
From my testing i
don't think it does and i'm not sure of inheritance levels in nant so any
clarification would be great.
Thanks
Daniel
