Bnd 3.4 Macro expansion error

[Dave Smith]

I have just updated to bndtools 3.4 and the following macro worked before but I am now getting this error

-runvm: ${if;${matches;${server};.*?(candata|localhost).*?} ; "-Dcandata.url=https://${server}/osgi -Dcandata.username=${user} -Dcandata.password=${pass} "}


Status ERROR: bndtools.core code=0 Expected a delimeter, like comma or semicolon, after a quoted string but found '}': <<-runvm: ${if;${matches;${server};.*?(candata|localhost).*?} ; "-Dcandata.url=https://${server}/osgi -Dcandata.username=${user} -Dcandata.password=${pass} "} >> null

This error comes from the properties parser. I tried the -runvm property in my own Eclipse and it seems to be ok. So there should be some difference. Could you send the exact file? Or at least a few lines before/after setting the -runvm?

Kind regards,

Try this

server: localhost:8443
user: testuser
pass: test

-runvm: ${if;${matches;${server};.*?(candata|localhost).*?} ; "-Dcandata.url=https://${server}/osgi -Dcandata.username=${user} -Dcandata.password=${pass} "}

Ok, it is weird. I see it in Gradle but not in the IDE. And bnd command line is happy as well. 

Anyway, an easy fix is to remove the double quotes. As long as there is no ‘;’ in the arguments you’re ok. 

And please file a bug.

Kind regards,
