Specify maven executable to path in checked out repository

[Doug Donohoe]

I have a project where the maven version I'd like to use for the build is part of the project's git repository.  I'd like to define a Maven 3 executable to use the version in the checked-out repository (the one that is part of the build).

I tried to define an executable path as 

${bamboo_build_working_directory}/env/thirdparty/apache-maven-3.5.2

and

${bamboo.build.working.directory}/env/thirdparty/apache-maven-3.5.2

But it doesn't seem that the executable is being found. 

Is it possible to use Bamboo environment variables in defining an Executable?

No, using variables as Executable paths is not supported.

Using relative path:

env/thirdparty/apache-maven-3.5.2

seems to work for me though, so you might want to give it a shot.

Great suggestion.  That works for me too.  Thanks for the help.
