Ignoring files for build triggering Follow

I would like to know this too.
Please provide examples!

I tried
mydir/*/.*
-> did not work

What is the correct syntax for the "Do not trigger
build if all changed file names match any of the
following wildcards:" text box? I have used many
combinations, such as the following without success.

bpo-config.jar
shared/71/centralconfigurator/*.jar
Hoth/shared/71/centralconfigurator/*.jar

I use Perforce as my SCM. Using the full depot path
with wildcards seems to work for me.
e.g.: //shared/71/*/.jar

Hope that helps.

full depot path

do you mean like d:/work/project/mydir/*/.* on windows?

Tried
*/mydir//.*
that also did not work.

Could someone from Jetbrains help please?
I'm wasting a lot of time with trial and error now...

found that
*.bat
*.txt

does work.

I wonder if it will work with slashes too? (so that you could exclude specific directories rather then specific extensions?)

I mean file location in source control as opposed to your sandbox.
So, in Perforce, an example of where a file would be in source:
//depot//lib/main/my.jar
even though the local sandbox file location might be, for example:
D:/work/project/lib/my.jar

It's the source location you would use as a filter.

That seemed to work. Thanks, Linda

Hello Linda,

ignoring files can be described with their repository name (specific for
each version control) and '*' and '?' in their paths (see
http://www.jetbrains.net/confluence/display/TCD/VCS+Triggers).

The important question is about file name using for checking.

For perforce repository file name is depot name,
for svn - its svn url,
for cvs - relative path.

We will change it in the next TC version (benaris), the path using here will
be uniform for all version control supports.

Sorry for delay with the answer.

My build automatically checks some jar files into perforce that are needed
by other products. I am trying to ignore these files for build
triggering, so the build won't kick off continuously. The jar files are
automatically sync'd during build time. For example,
//shared/71/centralconfigurator/bpo-config.jar is sync'd to
${build.working.dir}/Hoth/shared/71/centralconfigurator, modified by the
build and checked back in.
