Key: JELLY-27
Summary: variables not inherited into nested scripts > level 1
Type: Bug

Status: Closed
Priority: Major
Resolution: FIXED

Description:
I have a jelly script which imports another one. The outer script is executed from an ANT task through AntTagLibrary. I find that variables which are defined as ANT properties are not passed into the inner script, even though inherit=true (default).

The reason is that the JellyContex.getVariable(String) method calls parent.*findVariable*(String). However, AntJellyContext only overrides getVariable(String), so it is never called from the inner context.

Should AntJellyContext override *findVariable* also? It seems questionable to me to have getVariable call findVariable in the first place. Shouldnt that be getVariable again? And what is the distinction between the 2 anyway? I would have provided a patch, if there werent so many questions.
