Declare context variable that references another context variable

Hi
I have a context defined in studio and I'd like to declare a named context variable who's value references ANOTHER context variable
Such as
VAR1 = "http://www.whatever.com/${othercontextvariable}"
Is this possible?

You can certainly say: -

context.var1 = "index.html";
context.var2 = " http://www.acme.com/" + context.var1;
or you can put it on the Global Map
globalMap.put("VAR2", " http:// acme.com/" + context.var1);
and retrieve it with
((String) globalMap.get("VAR2"));

remembering to null test when referencing these objects
