Query based deployment

Hello,

Is there a way to define query based deployment in deployment descriptor file.
For example:
[HTML]

[/HTML]
I didn't find any thing related to this. There is a document OD Ref (pdf), in this document different DTD has been mentioned one of them "Deployment Query DTD". There query syntax is mentioned. But i didn't find any example for this.

Any pointer / RTFM will be appreciated.

Thanks

Is there a way to define query based deployment in deployment descriptor file...

I do not think so, not using queries anyway.
As far as I recall query is (was?) a subtag of payLoadRules Tag. It's applicable to some Payload Adapters that support query syntax.

You can accomplish this with OD Variables

[html]

[/html]

iwodcmd start mydeploy -k thisDef=Choice1

Thanks Boris and Nipper,

@Nipper- Your given input is perfect. But here scenario is different. We have three deployment definition out of three two will execute in each case while third one will execute for one condition.

Right now i am doing this with two deployment descriptor files. But i thought if it become one then that will be best solution.

Thanks,

In your situation - having two deployment configuration files is probably the best solution, especially if you want to do the deployment transactionally.
If non-transactional, you can do what Nipper suggested, and just have a calling script loop (if necessary) to call the deployment with the -k parameter.

Thanks Adams,

So it means that there is no way of putting query inside deployment descriptor to execute conditional deployment.

To calling script loop that means same command needs to call in loop with different definition value using -k parameter.
