The conditional buildstep plug-in allows you to specify a multijob phase as build step.
However, the graphical display of a multijob phase is lost when a multijob phase is nested in a conditional build step which means it is not very useful as the user can't view it running except in the console log rather than the multijob screen.
It would be very helpful to use conditional buildsteps in the multijob plugin and maintain this graphical representation.
So could the code be altered so that conditional buildsteps that have a multijob phase as a build step are still displayed by the multijob plugin. Conditional logic is very important when promoting job reuse and not having it means I currently have to have Multijob calling conditional logic job that will run sub-jobs based on the parameters passed by the Multijob. Having conditional logic available to multijob will mean I can have multijob calling jobs directly without the added layer of the conditional job in between and would also allow better visulisation for the end user of all the jobs that are running.
Assigning this to someone from tikal.
I'm the maintainer of the conditional buildstep plugin - if you could give me a hint on how I can tell your plugin that a multijob phase is nested within a conditional buildstep - let me know and I can implement it.
