Hi there I'm using the Build Name Setter plugin with a Matrix project to pick up a version string from a build.properties file. The right value of the version string is generated by my build script.
This is because we keep the MAJOR and MINOR version numbers in svn. The build scripts make sure those numbers get propagated to every file where the build needs them. The version that ends up in the build.properties file is really just MAJOR_VERSION.MINOR_VERSION.SOME_OTHER_VERSION.SVN_REVISION. The problem is that the build scripts are not run at all for the master project of a Matrix job (multi-config), so the master does not get sensible names for the list of builds. Is there any way to have the master project pick up the build.properties of one of the config-specific jobs or some other sensible value? (e.g. just use the Jenkins build nr for that) Thanks in advance!
