I wish to have a parameterized Jenkins build which builds projects from a
Perforce database based on a parameterized location within the Perforce
database. Can anyone advise how to achieve this with the Jenkins Perforce
plug-in?
To this end I attempted setting up a Matrix build with the "Workspace"
field in "Project Details" of the "Perforce" "Source Code Management" to
either "jenkins_branch_${ProjectBranchName}" or
"jenkins_branch_$ProjectBranchName". This is not expended in this field,
as the console output includes:
/usr/local/bin/p4 -s changes -s submitted
//jenkins_branch_${ProjectBranchName}/...@62994,@63043
Sync'ing workspace to changelist 63043.
[MonitorP4ProjectlBranch] $ /usr/local/bin/p4 -s sync
//jenkins_branch_${ProjectBranchName}/...@63043
Caught exception communicating with perforce. Errors encountered while
syncing: error: //jenkins_branch_${ProjectBranchName}/...@63043 - no such
file(s).
thus I suspect I am using the wrong approaching.
Thanks,
Rolf
