Some thoughts:

1) If I understand correctly, in your step 1 you run a Maven snapshot build, which creates some artifacts. Assuming you are using a Nexus repository, you can have step 2 download the required artifact from Nexus. You can find an example bash script to do that at [1].

2) You could also copy that just-built artifact to a known directory during step 1. See [2] for an example.

3) You could write shell script code to look for the latest timestamp directory. Something like this: ts_dir=`ls -d /var/lib/jenkins/jobs/myjob/modules/org.opendaylight.controller$distribution.opendaylight/builds/2*|sort|tail -1`

Sorry for not being clear in articulating my requirement if my first mail:

1) In step 1 of my build plan, I have maven generate the following file: /var/lib/jenkins/jobs/myjob/modules/org.opendaylight.controller$distribution.opendaylight/builds/2013-07-05_19-01-16/archive/org.opendaylight.controller/distribution.opendaylight/0.1.0-SNAPSHOT/*.zip

2) In step 2 of my build plan (execute shell), I need to refer the above file. So, I use ${BUILD_ID} to refer - /var/lib/jenkins/jobs/myjob/modules/org.opendaylight.controller$distribution.opendaylight/builds/${BUILD_ID}/archive/org.opendaylight.controller/distribution.opendaylight/0.1.0-SNAPSHOT/*.zip

3) But BUILD_ID contains the time in which build started, i.e., it has value 2013-07-05_19-00-56.

So now my question is how do I refer the above file in my exec shell? (I can't use lastSuccessfullBuild or something like that as my present job is still running).

Regards,
Seenu.

    All tasks within same job execution start in same directory. In
    such case there should not be any problems with finding build
    artifacts. This case is not really Jenkins specific.
    If you want to use artifacts of job A in job B (triggered by job
    A) you should use Copy Artifact Plugin
    <http://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Copy+Artifact+Plugin>.
