Works as expected. The value of a global var definition is expected to be an expression. It will be evaluated in org.eclipse.xtend.expression.AbstractExpressionsUsingWorkflowComponent#getGlobalVars(). If a simple string is used as global var value, it will be evaluated as an identifier. To actually pass a string, you need to surround the value with quotes: <globalVarDef name="test4" value="'foobar'"/> Requested via bug 522520. -M. |
