Define variables for Build Definition ?

In a Build Definition, I use relative paths to indicate files' location. For example, in the Ant Home field, I specified "..\..\..\..\..\apache-ant-1.7.0".

Is it possible that I can replace the prefix "..\..\..\..\.." by a variable like ${directory_prefix} , i.e. I can specify "${directory_prefix}\apache-ant-1.7.0" for the location of Ant ?

It is not currently possible to use variables as you describe.

It is something I've thought about and we may consider doing it in the
future.

Can you create a work item with your request?

Thanks
