Pass in View Name for Build in Parmeter

[Eric Fetzer]

I'm trying to set the View Name in Source Code Management with StarTeam as a repository by passing a variable ${st.viewname}, but it's failing.  It is taking the ${st.viewname} as a literal and not finding a view by that name rather than expanding the variable and using the value that it is.  Anyone have any knowledge on this topic?

Thanks,

Eric

We're trying to achieve this for both View Name and Label Name.  We've tried ${variable} as well as %variable%.  We're calling Jenkins from a website that passes parameters and these two parameters are necessary.  I have to think this has been required of others as well so I'm confused as to why this isn't obvious to me.  We could pretty easily pull the checkout into an ant script, but that kind of defeats the purpose of choosing Jenkins in the first place.  Here's the kind of output we're getting from the console:

Couldn't find label [%full.buildnumber%] in view NAP

Seems there's got to be a way to address this.  We'd be willing to submit an update if necessary, but a little guidance would be appreciated.  Maybe another place where this sort of thing is done?  Thanks!  Eric
