      Description

      according to

      https://github.com/jenkinsci/token-macro-plugin/blob/master/src/main/java/org/jenkinsci/plugins/tokenmacro/Tokenizer.java#L72

      one might think that "$$FOO" expands to "$FOO" ( where $$ is a literal).
      … but it doesn't, at least not in the cloud foundry plugin.

      >ERROR: Could not parse token macro: Unrecognized macro 'FOO' in '$FOO'

      token macro 1.10, cloudfoundry 1.4.2 ( built from git)

          CF plugin dev here.

          It seems the "expandAll()" method of the token plugin will apply the escaping 3 times.

          While waiting for a fix, you could work around it by triple escaping, using eight dollar signs.

          I'm going to remove the CF plugin from this bug's tags since this seems to be a token plugin bug.

          William Gautier That's a lot of dollar signs.. 2 3 .. this has got to be the best workaround ever, and a smile of the day.

          And more importantly, thanks for the investigation and reply.
