Jenkinsfile can't access environment variables in parameter descriptions

XMLWordPrintable

      This does not work:

      pipeline {
    environment {
        FOO = "bar"
    }
    parameters {
        string(name: 'BAZ', defaultValue: '', description: "Foo = $env.FOO")
    }

      The description for the parameter is always "Foo = null" instead of "Foo = bar".
