[Anthill-pro] Setting a Property to the name of the ExecutingWorkflow

[Chris Stoy]

Thanks Eric, this worked.

I ended up having to use the line:

workflowname = WorkflowLookup.getCurrent().getName().trim().replace('
','_');

since having spaces in the client name for P4 won't work.

Is there a reference of all the objects available for scripting?  It
would be nice to have a list of the objects and what methods they expose
(like the getName() method.)

Chris.

Chris,

I think you're just missing semi-colons at the end of your lines. Try:

workflowname = WorkflowLookup.getCurrent().getName();

PropertyLookup.setValue("workflowname", workflowname);

Alternatively you can skip that step and use short form scripts:
builds-anthill-${bsh:WorkflowLookup.getCurrent().getName()}-${env/COMPUT
ERNAME}

Note, the getCurrent() method delivers the actual workflow configuration

object, so you have to add a getName() to get it's name. The getName() 
trick works on most everything you assign a name to the interface.
