      Perforce plugin 1.3.0

      Hi,

      I'm having problems getting the Perforce plugin counter system to work properly. This is my setup:

      JobA (matrix project): 
	P4 Counter = TOMLABEL
	Update counter to most recent changeset = ticked
	Build other projects = JobB

      	JobB (free-style project):
	P4 Counter = TOMLABEL
	Update counter to most recent changeset = not ticked

      So when I make a change in Perforce JobA is triggered. If I check the Console Output for the parent job it contains:

      Updating counter TOMLABEL to 140403
[workspace] $ "C:\\Program Files\\Perforce\\p4.exe" counter TOMLABEL 140403

      Each element of JobA's matrix then builds. In the Console output for those builds I see a lot of this:

      [Win32] $ "C:\\Program Files\\Perforce\\p4.exe" -s sync -f //personal/tfields/Live/Engine/Tools/program.exe@140403

      which is what I expect to see, ie. it's syncing to my counter.

      In between JobA finishing and JobB starting I check in another file which means the latest changelist Perforce knows about is now 140404.

      So JobA finally finishes building, succeeds and triggers JobB.

      All JobB does is print out the current value of TOMLABEL. So if I check the Console Output I would expect to see the value 140403. Unfortunately I don't. I get the value 140404 back.

      [workspace] $ "C:\\Program Files\\Perforce\\p4.exe" workspace -o Jenkins_External
18:24:53  Last build changeset: 140392
18:24:53  [workspace] $ "C:\\Program Files\\Perforce\\p4.exe" counter TOMLABEL
18:24:53  [workspace] $ "C:\\Program Files\\Perforce\\p4.exe" -s changes //Jenkins_External/...@140393,@140404
18:24:53  [workspace] $ "C:\\Program Files\\Perforce\\p4.exe" describe -s 140404
18:24:53  [workspace] $ "C:\\Program Files\\Perforce\\p4.exe" -G where //personal/tfields/Live/Engine/External/NvTriStrip/NvTriStrip.cpp
18:24:53  [workspace] $ "C:\\Program Files\\Perforce\\p4.exe" describe -s 140403
18:24:53  [workspace] $ "C:\\Program Files\\Perforce\\p4.exe" -G where //personal/tfields/Live/Engine/Core/Engine.cpp
18:24:54  Buildfile: C:\JCI\jobs\External\workspace\build-jci.xml
18:24:54  
18:24:54  PrintInfo:
18:24:54       [exec] TOMLABEL = 140404

      Any ideas why this is happening. It seems like a bug to me.

      Regards,
      Tom.
