Thank you, it seems that you're right, it's not completing the expansion,
but in the research I did, I wasn't able to make anything else work (one
suggestion had to do with double quotes instead of single quotes, but
wasn't able to get that to work either). I don't know if it's related to
it being a parameter that was specified at build this is not allowing it to
expand?
I looked at the link you sent but didn't really understand "using a
closure" as the answer states. I tried to imitate it using this code below
but it still didn't expand:
def fp = { filepath -> "${filepath}" }
println fp(filepath)
