"Pipeline: Groovy" plugin version: 3853.vb_a_490d892963
The sh step fails when the script is passed as a dollar slashy string literal. A minimal example is:
pipeline {
agent any
stages {
stage('Test') {
steps {
sh $/
echo 'Could read the dollar-slashy string!'
/$
}
}
}
}
This pipeline fails with the following error:
org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed: WorkflowScript: 14: unexpected char: 0xFFFF @ line 14, column 1. 1 error at org.codehaus.groovy.control.ErrorCollector.failIfErrors(ErrorCollector.java:309) at org.codehaus.groovy.control.ErrorCollector.addFatalError(ErrorCollector.java:149) at org.codehaus.groovy.control.ErrorCollector.addError(ErrorCollector.java:119) at org.codehaus.groovy.control.ErrorCollector.addError(ErrorCollector.java:131) at org.codehaus.groovy.control.SourceUnit.addError(SourceUnit.java:349) at org.codehaus.groovy.antlr.AntlrParserPlugin.transformCSTIntoAST(AntlrParserPlugin.java:220) at org.codehaus.groovy.antlr.AntlrParserPlugin.parseCST(AntlrParserPlugin.java:191) at org.codehaus.groovy.control.SourceUnit.parse(SourceUnit.java:233) at org.codehaus.groovy.control.CompilationUnit$1.call(CompilationUnit.java:189) at org.codehaus.groovy.control.CompilationUnit.applyToSourceUnits(CompilationUnit.java:966) at org.codehaus.groovy.control.CompilationUnit.doPhaseOperation(CompilationUnit.java:626) at org.codehaus.groovy.control.CompilationUnit.processPhaseOperations(CompilationUnit.java:602) at org.codehaus.groovy.control.CompilationUnit.compile(CompilationUnit.java:579) at groovy.lang.GroovyClassLoader.doParseClass(GroovyClassLoader.java:323) at groovy.lang.GroovyClassLoader.parseClass(GroovyClassLoader.java:293) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.scriptsecurity.sandbox.groovy.GroovySandbox$Scope.parse(GroovySandbox.java:163) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.cps.CpsGroovyShell.doParse(CpsGroovyShell.java:190) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.cps.CpsGroovyShell.reparse(CpsGroovyShell.java:175) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.cps.CpsFlowExecution.parseScript(CpsFlowExecution.java:636) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.cps.CpsFlowExecution.start(CpsFlowExecution.java:582) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.job.WorkflowRun.run(WorkflowRun.java:335) at hudson.model.ResourceController.execute(ResourceController.java:101) at hudson.model.Executor.run(Executor.java:442) Finished: FAILURE
Interestingly, when the string literal is assigned to a variable which then is passed to the sh step (def script = $/.../$; sh script;), or the parameter name is added (sh script: $/.../$), it works.
