That would definitely solve the problem, i've done similar hooks to build CMake build trees for projects not intended to be built with it, etc. However, it's a bit of a large overhead to just get 4-5 lines of minimal Jenkinsfile code to actually kick off the build, and especially when you are just tooling around and testing. I've just actually gone through full Jenkins update to latest, and updated all plugins too, and now there is a new option, 'Default Jenkinsfile' which does seem to do what i need. -kert -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Users" group.
