As CruiseControl and Servoy are both Java driven applications, they share some Java technologies, and by default, share port configurations as well. If you plan to run CruiseControl and Servoy Application Server on the same machine, port changes will need to be made one application or the other in order for the applications to work properly.
...
Note that parameter 3 and parameter 9 are conflicts with Servoy Application Server default ports. Change these ports to any other available port on the machine.

SVNAnt is a helper application used by ANT to update projects from the SVN. Download the application from: http://subclipse.tigris.org/files/documents/906/49042/svnant-1.3.1.zip. Extract the contents of the zip file into c:/SoftwareFactory/svnant-1.3.1
We need an installation of Servoy Developer. Install Servoy Developer with the following options set
c:/SoftwareFactory/Servoy
c:/SoftwareFactory/DeveloperWorkspace
SVNAnt works better with a command line client. Recommended: slikSVN

At this time, it is a good idea to create the workArea file structure, create a folder name workArea and build the following structure (note that some of the files needed are provided later in this document). This is where most of the work will occur during the operation. CruiseControl will be configured to run out of this folder.
...
Using the command line client installed, check out the solution (or solutions) from the SVN into the workspace file located at c:/SoftwareFactory/workArea/checkout/testrunner. For details on how to do this, please refer to the SVN client you have chosen.
...
...
If your SVN does not contain the solution yet, and you have the solution in a .servoy file, do the following:
c:/SoftwareFactory/DeveloperWorkspace

As an alternative, you can use Servoy Developer to check out the solution. (NOTE: you will still need the command line client for operation of the software factory)

If you are using a SSL repository, the SVN server certificate must be trusted. Otherwise, the software factory will fail. |
A file structure should be started now (example files in SoftwareFactory.zip)
...
servoy.properties - a separate properties file for any db connections used to run unit tests, as well as a repository for the unit tests.
...
After making any changes to properties, the CruiseControl service must be restarted. After restarting, or starting if you have not started the service, try to make a build of the project. If everything succeeds, there should be a clean .servoy file in your passed exports folder.
