[benjamin.h.kersh...@lmco.com (JIRA)]

Ben Kershner created JENKINS-14739 EnvInject params are overwritten by default string params Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: current Assignee: Gregory Boissinot Components: envinject Created: 08/Aug/12 11:52 PM Description: A parameter created by EnvInject by a parent job will be overwritten by triggered jobs if a string parameter already exists. For example: 1) A parameterized parent project exists. It has a string parameter (defaulted to one): PARAM_SLAVE_NUMBER=1 It creates a new parameter with EnvInject: PARAM_SLAVE=Win7-Slave-$PARAM_SLAVE_NUMBER It then triggers a child project with current build paramters 2) The child project is parameterized with a string parameter as well: PARAM_SLAVE=Win7-Slave-2 The child project then runs a script on the node specified by PARAM_SLAVE. The expected operation is that since string parameters should only take the default values when they're not set already (pseudocode: IF NOT EXISTS($PARAM_SLAVE) { PARAM_SLAVE=Win7-Slave-2 }), EnvInject should set PARAM_SLAVE first, and the child project should not re-set PARAM_SLAVE, however, that's not what happens. In the case above, the script will always be run on Win7-Slave-2, no matter what PARAM_SLAVE_NUMBER is set to. Environment: Jenkins 1.455 running on Ubuntu 11.04 Project: Jenkins Priority: Major Reporter: Ben Kershner
