OS: Solaris 10
WTx version: 8.1.0.1 (Command Server)

Good day all,

Based on my searches of the forum and the WTx help library. The only way to compile from a command line is in the windows platform installation. Is this a correct statement?

Here is my situation. I am developing and testing WTx processes on my Win XP workstation. I the use IFD to build and deploy to a development server, which is Solaris 10 so that I can test the compile on the UNIX box. However, we have a CM environment that prefers that we check in un compiled source and then they use ANT to perform the compile and deployment to the respective environments. This CM environment is on Solaris 10.

Is there a way to perform the command line compiling in the UNIX environment?

Thanks,

I believe Windows is the only way...

Here is what I think you could do:

The said CM should have some kind of API. If you can use that API from Windows, your CM team can set up a Windows machine just to compile the maps and systems.
You check in the maps into the CM and the other team (person) deploys them.

I have an ANT script that I use to build and deploy all my maps and systems. The script runs on Windows and connects to Perforce (CM in a way), which resides on Unix.

Thanks. That looks like the way it will have to go. The alternative is to check in a compiled version for the Sun system to be deployed by Rational Clear Case.
