DeployTask variable set through custom_instantiation.cfg

catorarn

solution: TS671SP1/OD62/LS30/WFM1001

Query I have is that I have a wfm that I would like to reuse in different branches kicking off different OpenDeploy deployment configuration files. I created a custom_config.xml through the TS Admin UI for a branch called AUTHORING.

I included some global variables like:

[html]

CPW Branch
Branch
AUTHORING
true
true
[/html]

i would like to set the following variables:

cpwbr


I have created the variables in the wfm and then assigned them to the Deployment Task in the OD variables like :

NPEArea: $IW_CV(cpwbr)/WORKAREA/$IW_CV(cpwwa)

I cannot use the system variable $IW_WORKAREA in the NPEArea variable that OD uses, because I just need the branch name, not the vpath. Same for the CPW_WORKAREA global variable.

The OpenDeploy configuration does not get the substituted parameter.

Can I to set these global variables through the custom_instantiation.cfg instead of the odSubst_ in perl or java? Possibly do some formapi.
