Re: [Condor-users] 6.7.14 change in macros?

It's related to my other post, "Bug with TotalJobSuspendTime?"

Here's the classad code that continues the suspend from that post:

# continue on VM1 if keyboard not used,
# or VM2 becomes unused,
# or job has been suspended more than than max suspend time
CONTINUE	 = (KeyboardIdle > $(ContinueIdleTime)) \
		|| ( (vm2_Activity != "Busy") && (vm2_LoadAvg <
$(BackgroundLoad)) )

Prior to the above classad I define:
UPDATE_INTERVAL		= 3 * $(MINUTE)
ContinueIdleTime	= $(UPDATE_INTERVAL) / 2

This used to work w/o the $() around UPDATE_INTERVAL.  Now if I don't
use $(), I get an error in the StartLog:

1/19 12:46:31 Got SIGHUP.  Re-reading config files.
1/19 12:46:32 ERROR "Can't evaluate CONTINUE" at line 1086 in file

1/19 12:46:32 vm2: Changing state and activity: Claimed/Busy ->

1/19 12:46:32 startd exiting because of fatal exception.

But with the $(), it works:
