Build warnings parser using variable in configuration

Question

"Variables can be used to make values available when building plans in Bamboo."

I created a new variable called "warning.num" and tried to use this in the Build parser configuration in the field: Fail build threshold.

However, I've got: "Fail build threshold must be a number."

Is it possible to use a variable in that task field?

Thanks

Maybe that field can't bet set as a variable?  It's also possible that the value is being parsed as the literal string "2", in which case that won't work either.  Hrm.  I've never used the Build Warnings Task, though.

I'd recommend opening a support ticket with Atlassian, then.

Under default plan configuration -> variables I've added:

trunk.warnings.num  with value 2

Then in build warnings parser I set the threshold to:

${trunk.warnings.num}

or

${bamboo.trunk.warnings.num}

or

$bamboo.trunk.warnings.num

All the time I get: Fail build threshold must be a number.

I'm assuming that you're using

$bamboo.warning.num

in the entry, and not just

warning.num

?
