Variable Expansion

Paths specified in JSILc configuration files are allowed to contain expansion variables. Expansion variables can either be standard environment variables, variables defined by JSILc, or custom variables you defined in your configuration.

Built-in variables

Please note that some of these variables are not always available. If you attempt to use them when they are not available, JSILc will abort with an error message.
