Wiki variable referring to other variable broken

fhoeben commented 9 years ago

Wiki variables are not able to reference other variables, as can be seen in the user manual at http://fitnesse.org/FitNesse.FullReferenceGuide.UserGuide.FitNesseWiki.MarkupLanguageReference.MarkupVariables

The value of x should be The value of y is y-value (as the page states), but above that we can see that the value of x is actually The value of y is ${y}. So the value of y is not inserted into x.

I don't consider it broken. If you take a look at the wiki source, you will see, that

${x} is expressed as: The value of y is y-value

is not fake. It is generated by

!style_code{!-${x}-!} is expressed as: ${x}

My bad, I just looked at the 'variable defined' message, and forgot to actually output the content

The value of y is not rendered until x is rendered.

${x} is rendered as: The value of y is y-value
