It was not implemented yet. The next version of Oxygen will allow setting interactive parameters in a scenario as discussed in the following message:

Does that cover your use case?
Nop, but that's another one very interesting! :-) For a precise use case, let's take the example of an extension configured on a scenario (for instance a JAR file for Saxon.) Let's say the JAR file is not in the project itself, but in a system-dependent directory (/usr/share/java, /Library/Java or say x:/java.) If you want to share the project file between several people (by putting it in your project's SVN repo), they always will have to change the path of the JAR according to their own system. But if oXygen allows to define user custom variables, we could ask each people to define such a variable, let's say "java-libs", and define the JAR path (in the scenario extensions) as something like: ${java-libs}/org/apache/some.jar The ability to resolve an environment variable could help here too. Let's say something like: ${env:JAVA_LIBS}/org/apache/some.jar or like the following to be more like the new ${ask(...)} feature: ${env(JAVA_LIBS)}/org/apache/some.jar Regards, -- Florent Georges http://www.fgeorges.org/
