We use the Tool Environment Plugin to set environment variables with path for tools. We used the SetEnv plugin before together with the TE plugin and the tool environment variables could be used in the SetEnv configuration. This does not work with the EnvInject plugin, which is supposed to replace the SetEnv plugin.
Configuration:
We have tool environment variables
MAVEN_2_2_1_HOME
JAVA_IBM_60_81_HOME
ANT_1_6_5_HOME
The SetEnv plugin set the environment for a build using these:
PROJECT_TOP=${WORKSPACE}
PROJECT_BUILD=$PROJECT_TOP/build
PROJECT_RES=$PROJECT_TOP/delivery
PROJECT_SRC=$PROJECT_TOP
JAVA_HOME=${JAVA_IBM_60_81_HOME}
PATH=${JAVA_HOME}/bin:${MAVEN_2_2_1_HOME}/bin:${ANT_1_6_5_HOME}/bin:$PATH
This would work.
Using the EnvInject plugin on a new Jenksin 1.451 installation, I was so far not able to find any configuration which would work. The EnvInject plugin does not see the tool environment variables, or the PATH variable. This are the results:
[EnvInject] - Injecting environment variables from a build step.
[EnvInject] - Injecting as environment variables the properties content
BRANCH=trunk
PROJECT_TOP=${WORKSPACE}
PROJECT_BUILD=$PROJECT_TOP/build
PROJECT_RES=$PROJECT_TOP/delivery
PROJECT_SRC=$PROJECT_TOP
JAVA_HOME=${JAVA_IBM_60_81_HOME}
PATH=${JAVA_HOME}/bin:${MAVEN_2_2_1_HOME}/bin:${ANT_1_6_5_HOME}/bin:$PATH
[EnvInject] - Variables injected successfully.
[EnvInject] - Unset unresolved 'JAVA_HOME' variable.

[JENKINS-12879] Verion 1.27 does not work with Tool Environment plugin
Florian Zschocke
added a comment - Thanks for the tip. I have tried to use the Shared Object plugin instead. The problem remains because while the SO plugin does set the tool names as environment variables which can be used in the job, they can not be used, i.e. referenced, when injecting environment variables with EnvInject.
I have a tool naem "Maven 2.2.1" which creates a env variable of the same name.
When I set the environment with EnvInject, I have something like:
MAVEN_BIN=${Maven 2.2.1}/bin
This does not work, the variable "Maven 2.2.1" can not be resolved by EnvInject. Changing the tool name to contain an underscore instead of space did not help. Are the tool environment variables created by the SO plugin supposed to be referencable in EnvInject configuration?
So far I have to return to SetEnv/ToolEnvironment because EnvInject cannot replace the functionality that combi provides. What I am trying to do is get tool paths in the PATH for jobs we run (i.e. an Ant job).
Thanks for looking into it.

added a comment - There was an issue when the tool name contains a space or a dash.
I fixed it: in the above cases, the space and dash characters are replaced by an underscore.
And in the 'Prepare environment' section, if you check 'Populate tools installations', the tool locations are populated as environment variables.

Instead of use the couple EnvInject/Tool Environment plugin, I suggest you should use the coupld EnvInject/SharedObjects plugin. This latest plugin can export Toll installations as environment variables.
