CC.NET and LastChangeLabeller

[bnott]

I am using the latest versions of vault and CC.NET (1.3.0.2711). I would like to label my builds, and of course the assemblies go with them, using the folder version number from vault.

There is a new "LastChangeLabeller" in CC.NET that seems to be for this purpose, but I believe the Vault Source Control block would need to be updated to make this possible. Is this something that could be done?

I'll log a feature request and we'll look into it.

I looked into it a bit more to maybe speed the process a bit :)...

It looks like the "LastChangeNumber" the labeller uses comes from the highest ChangeNumber from the Modifications reported from the source control block.

As far as I can tell there are two reasons this does not work with Vault:
1) The ChangeNumber for each Modification is the "txid" reported by Vault, not the folder version.
2) If there were no modifications (i.e. a ForceBuild), then it won't find a ChangeNumber at all, and the label becomes 1.0.0.unknown.

Thanks,
Brian

Thanks for the additional information.

Just to say that I would like to do the same thing: incorporating the Vault folder revision number as the Build number of my product.

Any idea when this could be accomplished

It would be great to have this. Then I could base my build numbers on Vault rather then the build numbers generated from ccnet.

I've just implemented a CCNet Labeller plugin to do this. You can find out about it at http://blog.functionalfun.net/2008/09/h ... uilds.html.
