      The help section for "Properties File Path" states: Gives a file path of a properties file. The file format must be the standard Java property file format.

      I have a property file that is in the Java property file format (it was written out by the store method of java.util.Properties), but the #, !, =, : are left escaped when envinject places the variable in the jenkins job.

      The linked page for Java property file format gives an example of:
      website = http\://en.wikipedia.org/
      In the example above, website would be a key, and its corresponding value would be http://en.wikipedia.org/
      I used this example in a property file that envInject used to place variables into the job and the result is:
      website http\://en.wikipedia.org/

          Hi,

          this is definitely a bug. We are having exactly the same problem.

          Although this issue is old it would be nice to know if there is an "official workaround".

          Hi,

          the request from Thomas i fully support.

          Currently we can not use the EnvInject Plugin within the Jenkins Job configuration reading URLs from property files) as we would like to use.
          As a workaround we could write a Grrovy Script, which does this and execute it as first build step, but this is cumbersome.

          Would be great, if this issue gets fixed.

          Regards
          Ralf
