Hi there,

I'm using the Perforce plugin and I have got a matrix job called BuildJob1. In the Perforce plugin setup I've set "Client name format for slaves" to ${basename}-${nodename}.

My User-defined axes for the matrix build are:

CONFIG: Debug Release
PLATFORM: "Any CPU" - note how I'm using quotes to handle the space.

When BuildJob1 is triggered I get this:

Using remote perforce client: BuildJob1_AssetGather-CONFIG-Debug-PLATFORM-Any CPU-PhyreBuild2

Saving new client BuildJob1_AssetGather-CONFIG-Debug-PLATFORM-Any CPU-PhyreBuild2

As you can see the spaces are causing the problem. Creating a Perforce client spec with a space in the name is not valid.

The Perforce plugin should be updated to replace the spaces in a client spec name with an underscore or hyphen or something. Could this be done please?

I'm currently using Peforce plugin version 1.3.4

Tom.
