PCT task for Dynamics/ADE

Posted by Peter Judge on 01-Dec-2016 08:46

Once, when I was young, I though there was an Ant/PCT build script or task available to build Dynamics/Posse. Am I remembering at all right? If so, is anyone will to share it/one/that with me?

For those interested : web.archive.org/.../build.xml

This script is more than 10 years old, was written as a proof of concept, and doesn't reflect current best practices (or even former best practices) so use at your own risks.

I confirm there was a build.xml file for Posse. That was also when I was young, what a coincidence...

Moving to IT archaeology ?

Peter, do you just need „some” build script? Or do you insist on PCT?
 
As much as I love PCT (probably the open source project for OpenEdge with the largest impact) … but I still have a setup of the ADEBUILD tool flying around somewhere. But that requires a Cygwin shell or similar.

I use following script in cygwin,

POSSE should point to the directory containing the src directory

DLC to the progress installation

#!/bin/bash
export POSSE=w:\\external\\possenet\\oe1151
export DLC=c:\\progress\\oe115x86
cd $POSSE
src/adebuild/pbuild $* 2>&1 | tee mypbuild.log

I have the shell scripts (and their runners) too but since my main dev env is PDSOE/Eclipse I figured Ant would be easiest (best integration into the IDE).

The other nice thing about Ant is that its platform-portable.
