[jira] Commented: (CONTINUUM-692) Add specific continuum values as variables on build parameters input

["Jesse McConnell (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CONTINUUM-692?page=comments#action_77757 ] 
            
Jesse McConnell commented on CONTINUUM-692:
-------------------------------------------

I think this can be addressed nicely with the build profiles which should be targetted for 1.2, perhaps these variables can be generated on a per profile basis

> The idea is to add certain key continuum values as variables that can be passed into the parameters of a build.  The main one at question is a build #.  This would allow someone to do something like:
> (mvn)  clean source:jar javadoc:jar deploy scm:tag -Dtag=DAILY_BUILD_${continuum.build.number}
> This way, if the thing deployed successfully, it would be tagged.
> Other examples of variables that might be substituted include build timestamp (on server), and continuum group.
> This would also be highly useful in ant builds, I suspect.
