1. If I wrote a place holder by hand and just finishing it with a "%" I get the following error message: "% missing at the end of variable".
2. If I use the "Build VS.Net Solution" action, I can use "\" and "/" as directory delimiter (even both mixed). Only the last delimiter must be a "\" or no projects are listed.
3. If I start typing a place holder and press "Enter" for automatic completion, the place holder is inserted between the "%" and the typed characters. The results looks like: "%PathLocal%pathl".
I forgot to mention for point 3, that right of the variable must a least one character to get the descripted behavoir. If right of the new variable is another variable, everything between until the next “%” is deleted.
Thanks for reporting these. I can confirm that (1) and (3) are bugs, we'll have them fixed ASAP.
For (2), I assume that you mean the path to the solution file. Why do you want to use a forward slash as a directory delimiter? If it works at all, it's a flukey bug with the Windows file system & Visual Studio.
I have to reopen this topic for version 5.5.0.251. I am in a text replace action in the field “Replacement String” with the following line: $1$2,$3,%VersionRelease%,%VersionBuild% . If I replace “$2” with "%blabla% using auto complete, all characters before the next “%” are removed.
and surprisingly it is working fine in most cases (actions).
