[Anthill] AntHill out-of-memory issues when executing the ant scripts....

[Jeevan_Sunkersett]

Hi,

I have configured Anthill to use FileSystemRepositoryAdapter.
Cause in CVS we have 4 projects which have a circular-dependency in between
themselves.

So cannot rely on AntHill Dependency project mechanism.
(I need a CVS checkout of all and then a compile in a particular order and
not 4 
pairs of "cvs-checkout + compile")

Anyways we have an ant script that does a CVS checkout too.
But my problem is AntHill executes ANT as a java class
"org.apache.tools.ant.Main" with lot many other parameters.

But that leads to an Out-Of-Memory on my Linux box (even with an ANT_OPTS
like -Xmx900M, <NineHundred Mega>)

However running the same target at the shell prompt with all output sent to
a logfile works okay.

My ant script is like
	<master-build>
		<nuke-src-all>, cleans all source code from the file system,
calling nuke-src of other projects in sequence
		<cvs-get-all>, does a CVS checkout/ update
		<compile-all>, executes compile, of all projects in the
desired sequence.
		<test-all>, executes junit test, of all projects in the
desired sequence.
	</master-build>

The Out-Of-Memory mostly happens in the junit task(s)
The entire process takes over 1 hour.

That's is why I was wondering if AntHill could execute ant (the shell/ batch
file variant) instead of a java class.
I guess this can be achieved thru a Pagelet.

Any other possibilities?

Thx

		Hi,

		Thru the log4j trace figured out the BuildManager invokes
		org.apache.tools.ant.Main to execute the ant target of
supplied build
		script.

		Why? 

		I guess the same cam be achieved thru a custom Pagelet too.

		Any comments?
