How does BuildMaster read applied labels from TFS when getting source code



  • I am having an issue with getting by label steps for an application suite. The different apps are stored in separate folders and are not always built as a full set. Each has its own set of steps to go through a build.

    Recently the get by label steps for multiple apps have failed due to a scope issue. It appears that the labels are being referenced at the root project level.

    Each app is part of a release clled 1.0.5 and that is where the issue comes as each app gets a similar label based on build number. The labels are only applied to the specific App source code folder.

    How can I specify a scope when trying to get the labelled code?



  • If you specify a specific source path to the specific app, BuildMaster will only get the labeled files beneath that path.

    Similarly, the labels should only be applied to the specified source path in the Apply Label action.



  • We do use the specific paths under the project root. The issue still occurred, but we altered our labels to have a text precursor and now it works. It appears to be an issue with mostly numeric labels and TFS. If two apps in the same root project happened to get similar release numbers... then it bombed.
