Is there a method to retrieve current  build number for a plugin to use. ?

thanks

Hi,

 It depends on what you need to do. Check the below javadoc:

 - From a particular Jenkins job you can query its latest build: http://javadoc.jenkins-ci.org/hudson/model/AbstractProject.html#getLastBuild()

 

 - From a particular Job build you can query its current build number: http://javadoc.jenkins-ci.org/hudson/model/Run.html#number

Cheers

Alright, 

Are you developing a new jenkins plugin? Or you mean configuring a jenkins job? If so, please refs the below page:

- https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Building+a+software+project#Buildingasoftwareproject-JenkinsSetEnvironmentVariables

And also use jenkinsci-users mailing list or IRC for such topics since this mailing list is for Jenkins core and plugins development discussions

Most likely the plugin has a perform() method with an AbstractBuild.

Call getNumber() on the build.

http://javadoc.jenkins-ci.org/hudson/tasks/BuildStepCompatibilityLayer.html#perform(hudson.model.AbstractBuild,
hudson.Launcher, hudson.model.BuildListener)
http://javadoc.jenkins-ci.org/hudson/model/Run.html#getNumber()
