[Anthill-pro] Artifacts configuration question

[Eric Minick]

The scripts are pretty equivilant. The standard approach is to bundle up 
your produced war file and the deployment script(s) for it as a single 
artifact set. You would then have a deploy job that would run the 
'Resolve my artifacts' step against that artifact set to retrieve the 
files to the agent. And then run your script.

So a basic deployment job is three steps.
1) Set Working Directory (where do we want to run from?)
2) Resolve my artifacts (Get the stuff to deploy)
3) Run a Builder (do the deployment)

Does that answer the question?

In one set of projects I build a "war" file and deploy it to a test server... I have an at task called depoly-to-test and I can specify a property with the name of the war file ... note it is unique base on the date and time of the build.  Can I reference this in another ant task that deploys?
