groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException: No such property: buildJobArray for class: groovy.lang.Binding


I am new to groovy. Here I declared some list and using def keyword and use it in function to trigger a job and store it in list but it throws error :

MissingPropertyException No such property: buildJobArray for class: groovy.lang.Binding

Even if I declared a list. I don't understand whats wrong with my code

        def triggerBuildArray = []
        def buildJobArray = []
        def jobArray = []
        def paramsArray = []
        def noOfJob = 2 

        //function to trigger job

        def triggerJob(def job, def params, def jobNo) {
        
        buildJobArray << job.scheduleBuild2(0, new Cause.UpstreamCause(build), new ParametersAction(params))

        println"triggered job "+jobNo;
        println"waiting for completion of job "+jobNo;

       }

        jobArray << Hudson.instance.getJob('job1');


        //define parameters

        paramsArray << [            
        new StringParameterValue('baseurl',build.getEnvironment(listener).get('ORAbaseurl')),
        new StringParameterValue('firm',build.getEnvironment(listener).get('ORAfirm')),
        new StringParameterValue('loginname',build.getEnvironment(listener).get('ORAloginname'))
                
        ]

        for(int i=0;i<noOfJob;i++)
        {
            triggerJob(jobArray[i],paramsArray[i],i+1);

        }

but it gives error

        ERROR: Build step failed with exception

Solution

  • Here i found another way to do this. Here I used 'def' keyword to define a variable due to use of def keyword it becomes local variable. If you dont use def keyword to variable it becomes global variable.

    def buildJobArray = []   //local variable
    
    buildJobArray = []  // Global variable
    

    so once you used global variable it can be accessed from any function.
