7ZIP password needs to be hardcoded

FinalBuilder Bugs
1

We have a project which will use 7ZIP to Zip up a files set of directories, but we need to assign a password to the ZIP file.  It is fine if we hardcode it. but if we try to use a Finalbulder project variable, it will not use the variable but it becomes %7zipPassword%.  That is the password.  We need to adjust the password depenent on a build process, read in from a branch configuration file, or passed in as a variable.

Looking to see how we can accomplish this.

Hi Dennis,

Which version of FinalBuilder are you using? I’ve just had a look over the code and our version history and the password not being expanded bug was fixed in FinalBuilder 6.2.

Regards,
Paul.

Version 6.3.0.2172


I recall this project was converted from 5.5 up. I will see if I can put in the variable again into the Zip section of the project.

Sorry, it looks like it is fixed with the latesr release.
