      Description

      When using the ENV content, ${ENV,var="path"} works but ${ENV,var=path} does not. Improve documentation so that it's clear that quotes are required.

            Not worked in the below scenario.

            I have a string parameter called:

                      SERVERNAME

            Override this value through one of my build steps:

            XX="MY_SERVER"  

            SERVERNAME=$XX 

             

            In the extended email I have tried the below :

            $SERVERNAME [Not worked]

            ${SERVERNAME} [Not worked]

            $

            {ENV,var=SERVERNAME} [Not worked]

            These comments suggests that this actually works. Perhaps I'm just doing something wrong or misunderstand the functionality. Either way, I'll figure it out and fix it if I find a problem.
