    • Windows Server 2008 x64 16 Core AMD / Hudson 1.3.78 @ Tomcat 7/ CC Plugin 1.3.3 + more plugins

      Hello,
      we use Hudson & the CC plugin to manage ~ 1300 C# / C++ / VB / Installer projects based on Clearcase as SCM.

      The projects have a generated config.spec to specify which version of a software project should be loaded (using cc labels).
      So the label info is the identifier which version we are using for a build. All labels are integrated into the binaries so that we can identify which version is deployed / running etc.

      ===============================================
      Problem 1:
      If project A is developed further and we trigger a build based on labels we poll project A with label "PROJECT_A_0001" from SCM, but we will get a clearcase changes list showing the delta between the 2 build timestamps, even if the build for project A has no change at all (label unchanged).

      This is confusing a lot of developers here.
      Is there a possibility to disable this feature ?

      ===============================================
      Problem 2:
      If we wait 2..3 weeks before we trigger a specific build (kind of a softwar release which does not happen on daily bases) the change history process consumes an unacceptable amount of time, i urgently need to switch this feature off.

      ===============================================
      Problem 3:
      specify a file for a config.spec does not work for me:

      include \\server\config.spec

      This feature would be of great use since we could put our config spec's under SCM, too.


      Many thanks for developing this essential plugin which works excellent and helps us a lot building software !
