David Baumgold commented on JENKINS-13157:
------------------------------------------
I can give that a try. However, it doesn't really address the problem: I expect
to be able to insert a literal $ by escaping it somehow. In bash, "pas$word" is
treated as "pas" followed by the contents of the $word variable, but
"pas\$word" is treated as the literal string "pas$word": the backslash escapes
the dollar sign. Could EnvInject support escaping in the same way? (In bash, if
you want to insert a literal backslash, you have to escape it as well: "a\\b"
is treated as the literal string "a\b".)

> If I add an variable in the Jenkins configuration with a dollar sign in the
> content, then the variable is not injected. The console output says that the
> variable is unset because it is "unresolved":
> {code}
> [EnvInject] - Executing scripts and injecting environment variables after the
> SCM step.
> [EnvInject] - Injecting as environment variables the properties content
> ADMIN_PASS="pas$word"
> [EnvInject] - Variables injected successfully.
> [EnvInject] - Unset unresolved 'ADMIN_PASS' variable.
> {code}
> I've tried single quotes and double quotes, escaping with \$ and with $$, and
> nothing works: every time, the variable is unset. Help?
