Build Number and Snapshot dependencies

There is no way to reference build number of the parent build in the child build (because parent build is not yet started), however it is possible to reference child build number in the parent build.

Please take a look here: http://www.jetbrains.net/confluence/display/TCD4/How+To...#HowTo...-Havethesamebuildnumberforsamesnapshotbuildsofdifferentbuildconfigurations

Thanks Pavel

That will do me

Hi Pavel

I'm using %dep.bt87.system.build.number% in my build number format. Instead of showing the build number for that build configuration it is actually saying %dep.bt97.system.build.number%

any suggestion?

Cheers

Alan

Could you please check that build configuration id is correct. If so please send content of the build number format text field.

Hi pavel

the URI of the the build configuration i want to use http://buildserver/viewType.html?buildTypeId=bt87&tab=buildTypeStatusDiv

And the Build number format of the other pBuild config : %dep.bt87.system.build.number%

Thanks for your help

Are you sure that there is a snapshot dependency configured to build configuration with id bt87?

ok

No it isn't it's an artifact dependecy. Sorry my mistake. i thought this would be valid for all builds.

Thanks anyway

No this works for snapshot dependencies only, feel free to add feature request to our tracker.
