Ojdeploy and Hudson - how do we stop - quick question

Question

Hi All
In our simple script that's used in Hudson, We use ojdeploy -buildfile a.xml -define application.root=/root/test
It works fine when everything compiles but when it fails, the script continues executing with errors which leads to false build status as pass since the shell script runs to the end of file.
How to do use in the shell script with ojdeploy to give a non-0 error number in shell script when ojdeploy fails ?
Any simple concrete example would be great.
Thanks

Answer 1

In your shell script, you should be able to get the result of the previous process using "$?". So you could evaluate that after calling ojdeploy and if that contains an error code, you should be able to exit your script.
If you want to use the Ant task, you need to define the task:
  <taskdef name="ojdeploy" classname="oracle.jdeveloper.deploy.ant.OJDeployAntTask" uri="oraclelib:OJDeployAntTask"
            classpath="<put the path to your jdeveloper home here>\jdeveloper\jdev\lib\ant-jdeveloper.jar"/>Then you can use ojdeploy (here to run a deployment profile specified in the workspace):
       <ora:ojdeploy xmlns:ora="oraclelib:OJDeployAntTask"
                    executable="<put the path to your jdeveloper home here>\jdeveloper\jdev\bin\ojdeploy.exe"
                    failonerror="true"
                    ora:buildscript="${WORKSPACE}\build_workspace.xml"
                    ora:statuslog="${WORKSPACE}\build_log.xml">
        <ora:deploy>
          <ora:parameter name="basedir" value="${WORKSPACE}\<directory of the application>"/>
          <ora:parameter name="workspace" value="<name of your workspace file in the basedir>"/>
          <ora:parameter name="profile" value="<deployment profile name>"/>
          <ora:parameter name="outputfile" value="<name of the ear file to be created>"/>
        </ora:deploy>
      </ora:ojdeploy>We're building on Windows as you can see, so you might need to adjust the paths and the executable for Linux.
