Getting CCS to use another folder for temporary usage other than using C:\Temp

Hi everyone,

I am using CCS version 5.5.0.00077 to build a project using the command line.  Currently I am using this build method two ways:  A windows batch script that automatically loads/builds the project and Jenkins build server.  

My problem is that both the script and Jenkins access the directories listed below at the same time:

  • C:\Temp\f2837x
  • C:\Temp\f2837xx

when we delete those folders before a build (provides a more reliable build) we find that one of the two users of the build may fail the build if they are building at the same time.

Question:

Is there ANY way I can force CCS to use another folder other than "C:\Temp" when building a project?  It would be great if there was an option in the command line build for this, but an option inside CCS itself would work too.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Ricky Whitaker

  • After a bit of digging I found the way to do it using the GUI, but I want to be able to do the same thing from command line.  Is this possible???  The snapshot shows the properties that I am trying to change (marked by "c:/Ricky_Changed_It_temp/f2837x/sun/debug")

    Thanks,

    Ricky Whitaker

  • HI Ricky, 

    My apologies for delayed response. Could you let me know what workspace directory is specified under both build scenarios? Is it C:\temp? Could different workspace directories be specified?
