Cernunnos Manual

`${escape()}`

Description:

Returns the specified EXPRESSION as-is, without checking for or evaluating nested phrases. This feature is useful for manipulating file types and syntaxes that also use '${}' delimiters for dynamic content ( e.g. pom.xml, build.xml, *.jsp).

Reagents:

Name	XPath	Description	Reagent Type	Expected Type	Required
EXPRESSION	descendant-or-self::text()	An expression that may contain phrase delimiters ('${' and '}') that should not be evaluated for nested phrases.	STRING	java.lang.String	Yes

Examples:

Echos text that would fail to parse without ${escape}:

 
       
        <echo-ln>${escape(This is ${some(text)} that ${includes} delimiters...)}</echo-ln>
