Deal with file names as variables.

[Snir]

Hey, little question about buildmaster.

im running a powershell script that creates a file with a certain name and then a date.
afterwards, i want buildmaster to do stuff with that file (off course, the last one that created).
how can i "catch" the created file name to a variable so ican do stuff with it?

for example. the script is creating the file snir1.txt in the first run. then snir2.txt etc.
i want the next build step to take the file that just been created (SnirN.txt) and send it by mail.

Thanks.

In the v4 execution engine, your best bet is to create a file with that name, and then read the file contents into a variable.

In the v5 engine, you will be able to export variables via powershell a little easier (example: PowerShell & Scripting from Otter docs.
