Issue Type:	New Feature
Assignee:	Unassigned
Components:	pipeline-model-definition-plugin
Created:	2020-04-21 10:35
Priority:	Minor
Reporter:	Piotr Krukowiecki

Changes to the parameter defaultValue in Jenkinsfile are not reflected in existing Jenkins job after executing the job.

use following parameter definition:

 
                                                                properties([
    parameters([
        string(name: 'EXCLUDE', defaultValue: 'pattern', description: 'Exclude jobs that match this regexp'),
    ]),
])  
                                                            

add new job and run it for the first time, go to job configuration - the job should now have this parameter with "pattern' default value
change in the Jenkinsfile pattern to "pattern2"
run the job again and go to job configuration - the job will still have the old value "pattern"

Change By:	Piotr Krukowiecki

Changes to the parameter *defaultValue* in Jenkinsfile are not reflected in existing Jenkins job after executing the job.
* use following parameter definition:

{code:java}
properties([
    parameters([
        string(name: 'EXCLUDE', defaultValue: 'pattern', description: ' Exclude jobs that match this regexp description '),
    ]),
]) {code}
* add new job and run it for the first time, go to job configuration - the job should now have this parameter with "pattern' default value
* change in the Jenkinsfile pattern to "pattern2"
* run the job again and go to job configuration - the job will still have the old value "pattern"
