Automated builds with CruiseControl
We are starting to use CruiseControl for our nightly software builds. I need to automate the process of creating an installer from these builds. I'm trying to figure out the best path forward to accomplish this task and would appreciate any advice.
I currently have the installer I would be using, it copies a few folders, Updates some Environmental variables, and installs a few programs silently depending on the computer-name. Do i use command line switches to build the project and point to the software on the server?
Thanks
Kaine

I've got no Cruise Control experience, but I've done automatic builds in CVS & SVN environments. All you need to do is to extract your source code, do the build, then you can launch the command line build.exe tool to build your project with the results of the build (or you can use the iaant ant task if you use ANT to build).
