I sort of thought doing that might prove difficult. It's solvable in other ways so it really is not a big deal.

I had used that plugin before on an older server but I had to drop it as it ended up causing the server to become corrupted, or rather the scriptler portion. I never used the scriptler portion but it eventually made it so the Jenkins server could not be upgraded. I never had a chance to dig real deep into it.

Then with Scriptler is of course a security issue plugin which here I cannot risk using. 

Anyway, thanks for spending the time to look into it. 

Have a great year!

I haven't given up yet, there is one more thing I want to try .

Scriptler is an optional component, it can all be done within the active choice plugin.  Scriptler was just a little tidier which is why I documented that approach.

Good news, I've finally got this working. The solution ended up being rather simple - around 20 lines of code. Shame the Jenkins documentation is garbage, it should have been much easier to get this up and running.  

I've got a bit more testing to do but should have a new release out in the next few days.

Great. I'll keep an eye out for it.  Thanks!

I've released version 3.1 to support this. Let me know how it goes. As a first cut the cascading dropdown was easier to implement as a single parameter with two dropdowns, so let me know how this goes - and whether you need a build number dropdown as well.

I would still like to seperate this out into seperate parameters and get a similar behviour to active choices so depending on time constraints I will continue to play with this.

Put on my test server, works great. Not sure you need to do it any differently but up to you. 

Thank you!

I've got this working with seperate parameters and even support builds as well as application and release. I've got this sitting in a seperate branch and I'm not planning on releasing it for the moment unless anyone asks for it, so if you ever want to move in that direction let me know

actually that would be great. just the other day I was thinking about asking if selecting builds would be possible but it wasn't a critical thing

Just to let you know - I haven't forgotten about this. I am in the process of moving house so I haven't had much spare time lately. This change is ready to go.

However... the BuildMaster 6.2.5 release has a bug in one of the APIs used by the "wait for build to complete" option. There where a couple of other minor changes to the API but those were easily fixed. As soon as I have a fix for this I will be getting a new version out.

No worries. I'm not ready to move to 6.2.x of BM yet anyway. 

thanks for the update. Good luck with the move.
