CVS Tag with ANT or CruiseControl

Hello,

i have this little ANT target:

<target name="tag">
    <cvs cvsRoot="${cvs.root}" command="rtag" dest="${cvs.dir}" failonerror="yes">
        <commandline>
            <argument line="RelXX ${module}"/>
      </commandline>
     </cvs> 
</target

Is there an easy solution to increase the tag ?

For example ... from "Rel16" to "Rel17". I think its not so esay, because i must first know the old tag from CVS and then increase the number. And the number is just a part of the tag.

I use also CruiseControl ... maybe its easier that CruiseControl control the tag "text" (RelXX) and save this in a XML file ... and i take the tag from this xml file in ANT.

What do you mean ? What is the easiest way ?

Thank you in advance for your reply.

You can increase the tag by using javascript (or other
scripting language):
<project>
    <scriptdef name="inctag" language="javascript">
        <attribute name="tag"/>
        <attribute name="property"/>
        <![CDATA[
            tag = attributes.get("tag");
            number = tag.substring(3, tag.length());
            number++;
            inctag = "Rel" + number;
           
project.setNewProperty(attributes.get("property"),
                inctag);
        ]]>
    </scriptdef>
    <inctag tag="Rel17" property="inctag"/>
    <echo>$${inctag} = ${inctag}</echo>
</project>

Retrieving the old tag is a problem. You can make CVS
produce a list of all tags applied to the module, but
the question is how you will determine which one is
the old one. By the way, why do you want to do this?

Look into the buildnumber tag and try to tie your buildnumber to your tag. 
ant-contrib has a Math tag for handling the arithmetic. 

Or just keep a tag.properties file in your source.

other way around.
