[Buildbot-devel] Getting Properties value

[sergio borghese]

Hi All,

Actually I thought the python code was executed "on-the-fly" when the build
was triggered.
I moved the Property() call inside the buildstep (ShellCommand) and used
Interpolate() to get the right string value to be passed to my script.
Thanks all for the clarifications and support

Best Regards
Sergio
