How to declare variable with project property value as public?

Hi,

i have a project property like:

property name: ftime

value: ${=def now = new Date();now.format("yyyy-MM-dd-HH-mm-ss")}

 

i would llike to append ftime in a filename.

so if i get the property inside my try catch block it works.

If it's outside it doesn't.

so how should we declare the variable.

i tried with static 

 

static def ftime = testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.getPropertyValue("ftime")
try{
def fileName = 'C:\\temp\\myfile-'+ftimeime+'.txt'
}catch
(Exception e){
log.info "Error"+e
}

 

 

Thank you
