Im not sure if you can find a complete standalone example for this, but I
think your problem now is with eval().
Can you copy your stackTrace here?
I think you can not do eval( literal == literal),
but you could make a function to test that if you wanna use eval and give
the function the value of @{symbol}

Hi Felipe,
thank you for your reply. I have now added the extra quotes but to no
avail. I still get the same errors.
Is there somewhere a stand-alone example with the compile instructions to
check that everything works? I have the impression that I'm having troubles
with the whole eclipse config and plugin.
Thanks! Stefan
