Custom agent tools and versioning

Answered

I created a custom agent tool.  I put it in a zip file along with the requisite teamcity-plugin.xml file and uploaded with the Zip Archive option on the Administration > Tools page.  The documentation (https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/TCD10/Installing+Agent+Tools) suggests that versioning might be possible even on custom tools.  I tried putting an info section into the teamcity-plugin.xml but this seems to be ignored.  Is it possible to have and manage different versions of custom tools?

teamcity-plugin.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<teamcity-agent-plugin
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:shemas-jetbrains-com:teamcity-agent-plugin-v1-xml">
<info>
<name>CustomTool</name> <!-- the name of plugin used in teamcity -->
<display-name>Custom Tool</display-name>
<description>is a custom tool</description>
<version>0.1.0</version>
</info>
<tool-deployment/>
</teamcity-agent-plugin>

Using TeamCity Enterprise 10.0.4 (build 42538)

Hi,

unfortunately, the versioning of tools is a mistake in the documentation, it's not currently supported. It would be interesting as a feature, though, maybe you could create a feature request in our tracker so you are also informed of its development. If you decide to do so, please use our tracker here: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issues/TW
