[Interest] cross-platform CI for mobile Qt-based projects (iOS / android)

[alexander golks]

hi,

we are using jenkins, for windows currently only, but:

- we use dependencies during a build, having multiple libraries build first and the depending users build afterwards
- several different custom build steps for some projects
- calls to cygwin and cmd line scripts
  // must pay attention on what executables are called from within cygwin bash, e.g. 'find' will most propably call the windows 'find'...
  for e.g. "qmake -tp vc -r" calls for qmakeing the projects
- issuing windows msbuilds
- executing deploy scripts
- automatic svn triggers, so after check in a build is started
- mantisbt and websvn connection

so yes, your use case seems to be possible rather simply. configuration for your needs will be the problem.

we have now an environment where we have issue tracking in mantistb, every check in creates a full release build, jenkins leaves a note in mantis, 
and the issue reporter can view the changes made in websvn and/or mantisbt/sci+subversion/websvn changesets and test the fix in the release build.

took me quite a time to get it running, but now it's very smooth ;)
