liosc opened a new issue, #4460:
URL: https://github.com/apache/hop/issues/4460
### Apache Hop version?
2.8.0 (2024-02-28 03.31.08)
### Java version?
java.version=11.0.22
### Operating system
Windows
### What happened?
Scenario: in the environment you have a variable that has another variable
inside its definition. For example the variable "tmp.dir" is defined as
"${PROJECT_HOME}/tmp". When you get the variable using transform "Get
variables" you will have, for example, "some_path/Hop/Use_cases/tmp". If you do
the same using the function getVariable() inside a Javascript transform you
will have "${PROJECT_HOME}/tmp". IT seems the getVariable is not decoding the
nested variable value. There is the same difference also in case you use in the
environment a previous variable inside another one (someting like
log.dir=${tmp.dir}/log.
Please find attached a pipeline and an environment file as example.
