Tools should allow variables in their names for declarative pipeline

XMLWordPrintable

      I have a parameter called JDK_TOOL and would like to use the parameter inside of my declarative pipeline tools definition but this script does not work:

      pipeline { 
 agent any
 tools { 
  jdk "${params.JDK_TOOL}"
 } 
 stages {
  stage('Example') {
   steps {
    sh 'jdk --version'
   }
  }
 }
}

      I get an error which says:

      org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed:
WorkflowScript: 7: Tool type "jdk" does not have an install of ""${params.JDK_TOOL}"" configured - did you mean "TEST2"? @ line 7, column 5.
   jdk "${params.JDK_TOOL}"

      so it does not seem to actually parse the variable at all(and adds the " as well)
