I am attempting to execute each package within my project, but the only clear directions I have found are 10 years old at: https://www.simple-talk.com/sql/ssis/executing-ssis-packages/
Is there a more up to date way to accomplish this?
Have you tried using a Master Package which execute all the packages you need using execute package task?

I am working with a third party framework that I am integrating gradle into. I am calling some old ant tasks. The problem is that the third party framework wants me to use:
either its own ant, that is packaged with it
a specific ant version, in this case 1.9.1
Unfortunately there is no way to set the ant version that is used by gradle. I can not figure out if its is possible to point gradle to any specific version within my environment.
So what do you think I could do?
Thanks in advance,
Denis.
If you need to use a different Ant version than the one that comes with Gradle, you'll have to call out to Ant via a JavaExec or Exec task, rather than using Gradle's built-in Ant support.
Can someone tell me how to install Rascal?
The install instruction say - Eclipse Indigo for RCP/RAP - got it.
Then Install New Software and put in the repository address:
http://update.rascal-mpl.org/stable/
- done that
Check "Contact all update sites during install to find required software" - ok
Hit Next, and it complains can't find Jetty, so set up its repo, can't find some Http lib, and on it goes.
What I have done, after I temporarily gave up on Eclipse, is to compile using the Maven build.
This makes me think, is a dependency missing from the Developer Dependencies list? That being the 'rascal-master' project, which contains not much more than the top-level pom.xml file?
I downloaded that too, and tried to build. It did not work because Tycho could not resolve dependencies correctly, it ended up looking for pdb.values:0.0.0 instead of the correct version, I don't know how it managed to zero out the version.
I notice that there is a Jenkins build server, which presumably runs off the Maven poms? It might be an idea to update the Developer Dependencies page with an accurate list of what needs checked out to build from scratch with Maven. It should be as easy as check out some projects, then type 'mvn install' and it all works nicely. Perhaps that is already the case on the build server, but I can't get into the configurations to see how that works.
In the end I removed Tycho from the build, and found enough dependencies in the Maven central repo by hand to get it building, and just put in statements for each of them.
It really is a sad state of affairs the way that Eclipse disrespects the Maven repository, by creating their own and using their own format and tool; Tycho will not download stuff from Eclipse and put it in your local repository, from where you could use it in a more sane way.
The installation instructions seems to be outdated. I can confirm that Rascal will not install with Eclipse Indigo due to dependency errors. It works fine with Eclipse Juno for RCP/RAP.
Ouch, that's a painfull experience, it should not have been this hard, I will look into this.
As workaround: see Rascal Developer dependencies , if you install these dependencies by hand, it should work.
If you continue experiencing installation problems, leave a Github issue, since that is more suited for back and forward conversations.
To use Maven, you also need to insert the following into the pom.xml of rascal-master (replacing the old modules section if there is one):
<modules>
<module>../pdb</module>
<module>../pdb.ui</module>
<module>../pdb.values</module>
<module>../imp.runtime</module>
<module>../imp.pom</module>
<module>../ambidexter</module>
<module>../rascal</module>
<module>../rascal-eclipse</module>
<module>../rascal-shell</module>
<module>../rascal-feature</module>
<module>../rascal-update-site</module>
</modules>
Then run "mvn clean install" or "mvn clean install -DskipTests=true" from inside rascal-master.
My problem is the following:
I would like to use the propertyregex task in ant. The project I am working on is built on various different servers and I don't want to configure (install the ant-nodeps.jar) every server. The source needs to include everything, that is not installed on the system by default.
So now I would need to add the ant-nodeps.jar to the ant classpath from within the build file. Does somebody know how to do that?
Cheers,
Robert
The propertyregex task is part of ant-contrib and can be installed as part of your build using Apache ivy
Checkout the following example, which demonstrates how to download and use the "for" task (also from the ant-contrib project):
Problems getting my ANT builds to work after OS upgrade
The one downside is that ivy does not come pre-packaged with ANT, so the following answer has a tip on how to bootstrap your ANT builds. Once ivy is started it can be used to pull down everything else your build needs.
Ivy fails to resolve a dependency, unable to find cause
Update
While I understand you requirement to have no change on the target platforms, it's a very difficult problem to solve if you must also match several old versions of the build software. I have found incompatibilities between the latest ANT and 5 year old versions like 1.7 (ANT 1.6.5 is now 8 years old....)
What I do is install a very limited number of ANT versions on my Jenkins slave nodes. Build jobs can then only choose from these and then use ivy to download all other 3rd party software dependencies (This setup emulates how you'd manage a set of Maven projects).
I suspect you're using ANT to run your deployments? If that is the case I would suggest switching to something like Groovy, which can be deployed as a single jar file and can pull down dependencies on the fly, using Grape.
Is it possible to create JIRA issues using Ant tasks?
I'd like to automatically create JIRA issues using Ant.
Please check ant-jira. I never used it, looks like you can find some use and tell us how useful it is.
Use an Ant task to execute a shell command. Make the shell command the Atlassian CLI from Bob Swift.
Wanting to build and test a bunch of Borland Delphi 6 projects that are integrated with ASP.NET services. Had been using WANT and CruiseControl for building Delphi. With TFS Build agent we can tie all together and do some testing. I am looking for guidance and direction.
One issue I see is that there is no "solution" in a Delphi project to be given to MSBuild as a '<'SolutionToBuild'>'.
<SolutionToBuild Include="There is no such thing as a Delphi.sln">
<Targets></Targets>
<Properties></Properties>
</SolutionToBuild>
Also, I have references to <UsingTask> but am a little unsure how to use them. The <UsingTask> allows run custom task for Delphi command-line compile.
Your guidance would be appreciated.
Can you upgrade? Delphi 2006+ uses MSBuild by default. There is nothing to configure.
You can use MSBuild to run the Delphi command line compiler. It's been a while, but I'm pretty sure either the IDE supports command line compilation or there is a stand-alone compiler that can be run from the command line. In either case, you would need to create an <Exec> task that runs the appropriate command line build tool with the required parameters.
When you say you have "references to <UsingTask>" do you mean that you are importing an external MSBuild task? The <UsingTask> element is used to pull in a custom MSBuild task that resides in an external assembly (DLL). Once the task is imported, you use it just like you would any other built-in task.
