In Jenkins, you can have a "dynamic choice parameter". This means that you can write a script to generate all the dropdown choices for a parameter. It seems like this script is only run when you hit "build with parameters". When you query for the job config (
https://jenkins-controller/job/job-name//api/xml?exclude=/*/action&exclude=/*/build&exclude=/*/property[not(parameterDefinition)]
) you actually get no choices. Better yet, instead of an empty list,choices
is null!This PR makes adds a null check to
parameterDefinition.choices
so that if it'snull
we just don't validate. Right now we throw anNPE
.
