[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-5437?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Lukasz Lenart updated WW-5437: ------------------------------ Description: According to the documentation at [https://struts.apache.org/core-developers/constant-configuration] it should be possible to use both system and environment variables in the constants section. Currently environment variables are ignored if a default value is defined. The sysStrSubstitutor has a less specific prefix which also includes and replaces those, which should be passed to the envStrSubstitutor later. Given System.getenv('STRUTS_DEV_MODE') is "true" {code:java} <constant name="struts.devMode" value="${env.STRUTS_DEV_MODE:false}"/> {code} The code: {code:java} String substituted = sysStrSubstitutor.replace(value); return envStrSubstitutor.replace(substituted); {code} The sysStrSubstitutor checks, if there is a system property with the key "env.STRUTS_DEV_MODE" which is unset. It then replaces the expression with its default. substituted is "false" now. Afterwards the envStrSubstitutor doesn't find any expression to substitute, because the string is "false". was: According to the documentation at [https://struts.apache.org/core-developers/constant-configuration] it should be possible to use both system and environment variables in the constants section.
