Hi Axel,
Property expansion is recursive so a string ${model} that when expanded, contains the string ${model}, will lead to an
endless recursion. Buckminster traps that and throws a CircularExpansionException. The circularity can be indirect (a
string expanding to a string that in turn expands to a string etc.).
This shouldn't be a problem unless you introduce such circularity with some property and I don't think it's related to
changes in 3.7.
