Integrate CppDepend with TeamCity

• Installing CppDepend on the build server
• Configuring TeamCity
• Setting up the CppDepend Report in the TeamCity Dashboard

To be able to run CppDepend analysis during a build on a TeamCity server you need to install CppDepend on the server which hosts the TeamCity agent that will run the CppDepend analysis. Just unzip CppDepend in a folder that the TeamCity agent can use. In our example we will use “C:\Program Files\_Tools\Development\cppdepend”.

• First step: Create a CppDepend project (.cdproj)
Once you have created your CppDepend project you must execute a command line to generate CppDependOut directory which contains CppDepend report files:


• Go to Projects tab and choose your project
• Click on “edit project settings”, you will see your build configurations.

• Click on build
• Click on build steps
• In the build steps you can add a build step (Add build Step) and choose Command line in build runner type
• In the option Run choose Executable with parameters

• In the "Command executable" specify the path of your CppDepend console.
• In the "Command parameters" specify the path of your CppDepend project (.cdproj).

Save the configuration and run build.

To publish CppDepend HTML report:
• Go to the Projects tab and choose your project
• Click on “edit project settings”
• Click on Report tabs
• In the build report tabs click on "Create new build report tab"

Write the name of your report tab, specify the start page of your CppDepend report and click on Save.

• Go to Projects tab and choose your project
• Click on your last build

• Click on "Edit Configuration Settings"
• Under the "Artifact paths" specify the path of CppDepend out directory which contains the CppDepend Report

• Save the configuration and run build once. The Report will be generated.
• Go to your last build and click on artifact tab; you can see now a tab that contains your html report
