CruiseControl.NET : launch build on commit

I searched a lot but i didn't find a solution for my problem.

I use CruiseControl.NET (1.4.4). My project (in ccnet.config) load a repository from a cvs server to a local repository, and launch some executables (msbuild, NUnit...).

I use a trigger (Interval or Schedule Trigger), that launch regularly my project. But if my project has not been modified, it always launch all next tasks. And I would like to avoid it. So i want to launch my project only if a commit has been detected.

Is there any solution for it please?

Thanks

Olivier

Your trigger needs to specify IfModificationExists:

<intervalTrigger 
    name = "dave" 
    seconds = "30"   
    buildCondition = "IfModificationExists" />

Although buildCondition="IfModificationExists" is the default anyway, so as long as its not set to ForceBuild you should be fine.

EDIT:

The URL Trigger might be of some use to you. You can set your svn server to modify a page on commmit and the CC.Net checks the page to see if it has changed, thus not getting all the files.

Thank you Anders Juul abd Andy for your quick answers.

By using the intervalTrigger with "IfModificationExists" build condition, the project must be loaded each time (it's logical ^^). But my project size is about 450Mo. So it's a little long. So my last question is : can we execute all builds and next tasks when a commit command has been detected? (without loading all files, in CruiseControl). I use TortoiseCVS (version 1.10.10). Maybe we can force CruiseControl project to be lauched after a commit?

Just use IntervalTrigger, like this:

<triggers>
    <intervalTrigger />
</triggers>

You can also add an modificationDelaySeconds, to wait for a number of seconds before starting the build after the last commit.

    <modificationDelaySeconds>30</modificationDelaySeconds>

I start my project as below, which ensures that the tasks get executed only if there are modifications.

Hope this helps,

Edited: My code excerpt didn't make it to the page - I've tried to replace less-than, bigger-than with brackets.

[project name="SpilMerePool" queue="Q2" queuePriority="1"] [sourcecontrol type="svn"] [trunkUrl]https://ajf-ser1.ajf.local:8443/svn/SpilMerePool/trunk[/trunkUrl] [workingDirectory]c:\from_vc\SpilMerePool[/workingDirectory] [executable]C:\Program Files\VisualSVN Server\bin\svn.exe[/executable] [username]username[/username] [password]password[/password] [/sourcecontrol]
