Modifying a Build Configuration Script

The following procedure applies to Pre-Scripts, Main Scripts, Post-Scripts, and Clean-Up Scripts.

To modify a build configuration script:

1. If you already have the build configuration checked out and the Pre/Main/Post/Clean-Up Script tabs are visible, skip to Step 9.

2. In the Build Administration Console, click the Build Management tab.

3. Expand the Dimensions Projects tree until you can see the build configuration whose script you want to modify.

4. Select the project containing the build configuration. The Build Configurations section appears in the content pane.

5. Select the build configuration that receives the script.

6. Check out the build configuration by clicking the Check Out icon.

7. Click the pencil icon. The Edit Build Configuration dialog box appears.

8. Click the Pre/Main/Post/Clean-Up Script tab.

9. To modify the script, select one of the following three choices:

- input script content manually

If you select this choice, enter or modify the script in the Script Content text box. Select the Word Wrap checkbox if you want to have the text wrap.

- use a Dimensions-controlled file as a script. If you select this choice, enter or modify the location of the file, or click Browse to browse for it.

NOTE If you select a Dimensions-controlled file as a script, be aware that the file is pushed to the build area if you are using a work area. If you are using a deployment area, Dimensions Build assumes that the script has already been deployed to that area.

- use a file in the build area as a script

If you select this choice, enter or modify the location of the file, or click Browse to browse for it.

10. If you added or selected a new script, and need to delete an existing script, do so now.

11. Click OK to accept the dialog box.

12. Check in the modified build configuration by clicking the Check In icon.
