Hello,

I was wondering if it is possible to automaticllay add the version number of the product configuration to the exported zip file if you use PDE headless build, so that you get something like

$product-$version-win32.win32.x86.zip

I had a look at the documentation and googled the web but couldn't find a hint.

Maybe someone has an idea how to do the job.

Thanks in advance
Bjoern

You won't be able to do this when exporting from the UI. To have that
level of control you will need to set up a headless build.

Hi Andrew,

as I mentioned in my post, I use a headless build, but don't have a clue how to get the product version number into my zip files name.

Hi Bjoern:

In my build.xml file, I create a variable to contain the name and version of
my product:
<property name="archivePrefix"
value="MyProduct-${buildVersion}-I${DSTAMP}"/>

When calling the productBuild.xml builder, I pass the archive name prefix in
as a command line argument:

<arg value="-DarchiveNamePrefix=${archivePrefix}"/>


And in my builder's build.properties file, I use the variable to set the
archiveNamePrefix property:

archiveNamePrefix=${archiveNamePrefix}
I am using Galileo.
