Hi.

I'm trying to use the syntax `${FILE,path=foo.txt}` to introduced in Token Macro Plugin 1.11. My plugin version is 1.12.1
In what context can this be used? My project is a freestyle project. It creates foo.txt, then I have the EnvInject step with the following:

AAA=${FILE,path=foo.txt}

and then the shell step:

echo "AAA=$AAA"

Here's the console output:

    [basintest] $ /u01/jenkins/jenkins_shell -xe /tmp/hudson8306494744167210672.sh
    + . /tmp/hudson8306494744167210672.sh
    ++ cat foo.txt
    aaa
    [EnvInject] - Injecting environment variables from a build step.
    [EnvInject] - Injecting as environment variables the properties content
    AAA=${FILE,path=foo.txt}

    [EnvInject] - Variables injected successfully.
    [basintest] $ /u01/jenkins/jenkins_shell -xe /tmp/hudson6182970742482538021.sh
    + . /tmp/hudson6182970742482538021.sh
    ++ echo 'AAA=${FILE,path=foo.txt}'
    AAA=${FILE,path=foo.txt}
    Finished: SUCCESS

It doesn't look like the envinject plugin has any sort of dependency on the token-macro plugin, which means you can't use the FILE token there.
