Hi,

If I create a HashMap with something like:

static Map<String,String> map = new
HashMap<String,String>("variable",MyPreferences.getVariableValue());

If I do it like this I guess that MyPreferences.getVariableValue()
will not be substituted but be the "plain" string.

How can I make my MyPreferences.getVariableValue() be evaluated at
runtime? Any example?

br,
