[Anthill-pro] How to build in AntHill Pro with Weblogic 9 Workshop app and CVS

[Holmes, Wayne]

We are converting to Weblogic 9, and have some questions for anyone who
is doing EAR based builds using Workshop for Weblogic Platform (based on
Eclipse/WTP).

Following the tutorials we end up with a struture like this in our WfWP
workspace:
  EARDescriptor
  EJBComponents
  WebComponents

This all builds and works great inside WfWP. The problem we run into is
when we try to commit these to CVS. We end up with three CVS projects..
which makes life interesting when we try to configure the build on
AntHill Pro. (We are still running Version 2.6.2.19159)

We tried to setup a build dependency like this:
  EARDescriptor
     EJBComponents
     WebComponents

This seems ok, but we rapidly run into issues with a large number of
build tracks needed for each version, as well as trying to keep all the
build versions in sync. We would like to have all components checked in
under the same CVS project, but can't seen to figure out the "magic
handshake".

The bottom line question: Anyone doing Anthill Pro builds based on
Eclipse WTP/WfWP J2EE based projects that use CVS as a code repository?
Any tips on how to setup builds so we don't end up with a large number
of build tracks?

Thanks in advance.
