File List and Filter based deployment

Hi,

I have a parameter based data deployment (file to be deployed and the definition to be executed are passed as arguments) that has 7 definitions. I want to change this to a file list based data deployment. The file list will have DCR paths belonging to 7 different data types (7 different definitions). I will be executing the 7 definitions using execDeployment element.
Can I use DCRFilter for each definition and ignore the data types that are not supposed to be deployed using that particular definition? Can this filter be used with a standalone deployment?

The sample deployment script has been attached.

Thanks
Dhruv

I have similar requirements at my employer but we handle the deployment in the following fashion.

We have a main deployment script that expects a set of parameters from the workflow one of those parameters is a filelist to deploy.

From the main deployment script we call one or many deployments scripts with a command to start deployment (including parameter values) (each of them expects a set of parameters from the main script). Since you will have a new DD script for each of your current definitions, you will be able to do anything you want with no impact on the other dd scripts.

Benefits of these is that we can troubleshoot the scripts better in case one fails and we can change each independetly from each other.
