Place holder are not updated when using "Restart build ...."

FinalBuilder Bugs
1

Hi,

I had a wrong path in a copy-file-action and so an access denied error occurred. No problem, I just changed the path variable and used the "Restart build from selected action...." button. But nothing changed, I got always the same error message with the same path.

Regards,

Christian

Hi Christian,

Did you change the Default value in the 'Edit Variables' window? The default value and the current value of a variable are different things. Variables are only reset to their default values when you restart the entire build(*).

To change the -current- version of a variable, you can use the Watches tab to add a Watch and then modify the current value.

(*) This is an over-simplification. You can make FB reset variables to default at other times, under the Options -> FinalBuilder -> Variables page.

Hi Angus,

I feel sorry. Yes I changed only the default value and never thought about the Watches tab. It is possible (makes it sense) to extend the “Edit Variables” window in a way, that it is additional showing the current value?
