Hi
Thx for Prompt reply. My Only concern Would be 1)Use the build.xml for running targets irrespective of Normal / FTP based Systems to Copy /delete files from the destination. [ But we do have a DB which provides details of systems in advance, and can be used to for Normal / ftp for copying /deleting the files to the System ] For each of the Target ,Do i need to have an equivalent FTP based target ???? Is there no solution exists.....

Let me offer my 2 cents. I prefer to deploy things, regardless of the OS and local/remote, in the same exact way. In other words, consider using ftp (or better yet scp) to deploy in all cases, local or remote. You would have to configure ftp (or ssh server) on your local windows box, but there is a clear advantage to this approach. You will be running the same tasks and Ant will be doing the exact same thing during the deployment, regardless of the destination. To facilitate this, I would create a properties file for the environment that is loaded for environment specific properties... like hostname, remote dir, etc. To deploy to multiple environments at once, you can loop over a list of environments with the ant-contrib <foreach> task. Hope this helps. -Rob Anderson > -----Original Message----- > From: Karthik [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, March 02, 2006 11:54 PM > To: user@ant.apache.org > Subject: 1 Questions in ANT > > Hi form > > I have 1 Questions > > 1)I have a "build.xml" file with many normal targets, > But for LINUX - OS with same build.xml , Do i need to Add > the FTP tasks for EACH of the targets > or is there an feature avaliable in ANT. > > ex:- > > Source OS using ANT to Copy is : "windows" > Destination OS of each target may be : "windows or > Linux Systems" > > > build.xml is as follows.... > > <target name="01JAN2005"> > <copy todir="${dest.dir}"> > <fileset dir="${src.dir}/*"/> > </copy> > </target> > > <target name="15JAN2005" depends="15JAN2005"> > <copy todir="${dest.dir}"> > <fileset dir="${src.dir}/*"/> > </copy> > </target> > > ---- > > > <target name="01JAN2005" > > <fileset dir="${libs}"> > <include name="**/*.jar"/> > </fileset> > <ftp server="${ftptype}" > remotedir="${ftpremotedir}" > userid="${ftpid}" > password="${ftppas}" > separator="/" > action="put"> > > <fileset dir="${src.dir}"> > <include name="**/*"/> > </fileset> > </ftp> > </target> > > > > <target name="15JAN2005" > > <fileset dir="${libs}"> > <include name="**/*.jar"/> > </fileset> > <ftp server="${ftptype}" > remotedir="${ftpremotedir}" > userid="${ftpid}" > password="${ftppas}" > separator="/" > action="put"> > > <fileset dir="${src.dir}"> > <include name="**/*"/> > </fileset> > </ftp> > </target> > > > Please some body help me > > > > with regards > Karthik > > > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For > additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
