Variables in log file names
Hi all,
I'm using several Simple Data Writers to record data, and would like the
file names to be controlled by a variable. I have set one file name
field to:
..\projects\test\${log_prefix}_10user_tests_log.xml
but I only get files called "${log_prefix}_10user_tests_log.xml",
despite having a variable set called 'log_prefix'.
Is what I want to do possible?
Am I going about it the right way?
Is there any way to get the data from separate test runs in separate
files/directories?
Ronan

With the current version of JMeter you can use the properties/variables:
START.MS - start time in milliseconds
START.YMD - start time as yyyyMMdd
START.HMS - start time as HHmmss
as part of the filename, see:

G'day
I struggled with this sort of thing for a while.
The basic answer is that for each variable reference you have to consider
when it is evaluated.
The name of a log file is evaluated once prior to execution. Since the
variable you are using is not defined at that time it evaluates to its own
name.
