Firstly thanks for a sensible reply.
I am using Zend Studio Server and I haven't upgraded to Zend Studio for
Eclipse as yet. It also has some CVS capability not its not what I am
after.
Google was my first stop but it didn't turn up anything which appeared to be
in a stable enough state. Hence my email to the list to see if anyone else
had come across such a solution. My application is built from several
modules contained with cvs. Some of these modules are used across projects.
I wanted to create my own web-based script to check these out of cvs and to
build and configure the application on the fly.
I had a look at cruisecontrol but its not really what I am looking for
either.
Adrian.

We're a bunch of helpful and flippant sods on this list, so take the
criticism as constructive (trim your own sig file down and remove the white
space and see if you can NOT send the confidentiality notices when broadcast
mailing).
As for automatic CVS via PHP, it depends on your take on it...
Eclipse has a CVS piece to it which seems to work well (I've installed it,
but most of my stuff is layered and I don't have a reason for CVS), though
someone also posted about cruisecontrol on the sourceforge site.
What have you found and tried via a google search?

Maybe look at Phing[1]? Skimming over the docs (I know you said you
use CVS) I saw a task you can define to check files out form SVN.
There might be a cvs one somewhere or you could extend it and write
your own.

Another option would be to write your own. If your requirements are
super specific, then that might be the best route. I can't imagine it
would be too difficult.
You can use shell_exec to execute the CVS checkout, and any other CVS
command necessary. Don't forget to use escapeshellcmd() either:
http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.escapeshellcmd.php
After it's checked out, then you can use shell_exec() again to run the
compile command. If it takes a long time, you might be best just
sending the command to the output so you can copy and paste and run it
yourself, or just make sure you set_time_limit(0), or some amount of
time it should finish compiling in.
I assume it's an internal app, so you wouldn't have to worry too much
about it looking pretty or any of the other time consuming operations.
<?php
//
// NOTE: Paths are for Linux. Change for Windows as necessary
//
$cmd = escapeshellcmd('/usr/bin/cvs -d :ext:user@cvshost:/.../cvsroot
checkout module');
$output = shell_exec($cmd);
// do something with output if you need
$cmd = escapeshellcmd('/path/to/module/configure');
$output = shell_exec($cmd);
echo "done!";
?>
Something like that anyway. That's overly simplified of course, but it
should get you a start if you want to write it yourself.
