Re: Clean and sync incorrectly follows junction/directory symlinks on Windows

Hi Karl,

Thanks for your detailed response.

I have added it to a always run in a post step, the issue is that its not always reliable to run.

e.g. I've had a power-cut , had java run out of heap space, network disconnects, switching from jnpl3 to jnpl4, plugins doing odd stuff and users making breaking changes to the pipeline script affecting it getting to the end.

Its not common but not as uncommon as id like, but it only needs to happen once and the build misses getting to the end and then the next run removes the build dependencies.

 

Thanks a lot for your time.

Hi Kieron Kierzo, Thanks and I'm happy to help. I'll make sure the developers see the feedback about the the workaround not being robust.

Re: Clean and sync incorrectly follows junction/directory symlinks on Windows

P4Java's reconcile  supports 'symlinks' not 'junctions'.  Please use:

mklink /D "%WORKSPACE%\3rdparty" "C:\Jenkins\3rdparty" 

'D' for a Directory Symlink.
