Situation

Prompt for build version when a configuration is manually triggered.

Demonstration

Click here and press the run button, QuickBuild will present a build option window asking for version of the build. Click "OK" to continue, and the specified value will be used as version of the newly generated build (please wait a short while before the new build appears).

Resolution

Edit basic setting of the release configuration:

  1. Define next build version as ${vars.get("version")}
    This tells QuickBuild to use value of variable version as version of the new build. Please note that the variable name can be arbitrary as long as the same name is defined below.
  2. Add a variable named version and specify the prompt setting as prompt as text input
