Getting back to this...(BTW thanks for the responses) How do you generate/control the unique ID? Is the SVN repository revision a good ID to use? Seems that it would be good to correlate the builds based on a known reference point. That may not work though with multiple projects that are based on different SVN numbers .... hmm. If you use Maven (and assuming you are also building web applications) it seems that the POM would be configured to do all the deploy's and possibly run the tests at any given point. However, the project with the POM is part of the workspace of the upstream job and I don't think it would be good to copy the entire workspace for every job.
Can multiple jobs share the same workspace? On Mon, Feb 20, 2012 at 4:55 PM, Geoff Bullen <[email protected]>wrote: > The join plugin doesn't work with the build pipeline plugin.
