Property resolution broken in nested property definition

Hi,

I'm using the Project plugin preconfiguration method as described in the 
wiki (http://confluence.public.thoughtworks.org/display/CC/ConfigFiles).

Apparently, a property given as parameter to a preconfigured project 
instance is not always resolved inside the preconfiguration.

Please see the example below. The <exec> command calls echo by means of 
a windows cmd /c call. Can be changed to a sh call on unix systems.

Couldn't find the issue on the archive. What's your opinion?


Kind Regards,

Example CruiseControl config script:


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<cruisecontrol>
   <plugin name="project.new" 
classname="net.sourceforge.cruisecontrol.ProjectConfig">

     <!-- Apparently, plugin template parameter properties are neither 
expanded
          in a <plugin> attribute, nor in a <property> attribute. -->
     <property name="broken-parameter-expansion" value="${parameter}"/>

     <!-- Expected output would be:

             Parameter: This is a project parameter string.
             Broken Parameter: This is a project parameter string.

          But it is:

             Parameter: This is a project parameter string.
             Broken Parameter: ${parameter}
     -->
     <schedule interval="600">
       <composite>
         <exec command="cmd" args="/c echo Parameter: ${parameter}"/>
         <exec command="cmd" args="/c echo Broken Parameter: 
${broken-parameter-expansion}"/>
       </composite>
     </schedule>
   </plugin>

   <project.new name="Template Property Demonstration">
     <property name="parameter" value="This is a project parameter 
string."/>
   </project.new>
</cruisecontrol>
