'Build Parameters' column displays uresolved environment variable

XMLWordPrintable

      We are using environment variables (Jenkins->configuration->Global properties-->Environment variables) as default values of build parameters to our Jenkins deploy application builds:
      APPLICATION_DEPLOY_VERSION=x.y.z

      Somehow there is a requirement to indicate the latest deployed application version, per application deploy job. Introducing a 'Build parameters' column in the Jenkins view seems to fulfill this requirement. This works fine if the user overrides the default value of the version build parameter (${APPLICATION_DEPLOY_VERSION}).

      But if the user accepts the default value (${APPLICATION_DEPLOY_VERSION}), the 'Build parameters' column indicates that the latest build was invoked with the parameter value '${APPLICATION_DEPLOY_VERSION}'.

      I think the 'Build parameters' column should show the resolved build parameter value, if based on an environment variable, or any other parameter substitution mechanism.
