New issue 1722 by aalto.t...@gmail.com: It is not explained in the user
guide that variables that contain variables from variable file are not
resolved.
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework/issues/detail?id=1722
The RF User Guide does not explain that variables that contain variables
from variable file are not resolved. See issue 1714 for example.
Perhaps some sort of note or remark in the creating-variables-directly
chapter would be in place. Example: NOTE: It is not possible to use Robot
Framework variable syntax in the variable file, because the variables
inside of the variable are not resolved. Example: MY_VAR
= "${EXECDIR}${/}tmp" would not lead to desired result. But this can be
done example like this: os.path.join(os.path.abspath('.'), 'tmp') [2]
