Peter Turcsanyi created NIFI-9496: ------------------------------------- Summary: StandardParameterContext.parameters map may contain inconsistent key and value Key: NIFI-9496 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-9496 Project: Apache NiFi Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Peter Turcsanyi
{{StandardParameterContext.parameters}} map stores {{ParameterDescriptor}} (key) to {{Parameter}} (value). The {{Parameter}} also has a reference to its {{{}ParameterDescriptor{}}}. When the {{Parameter}} is updated (e.g. its description is changed), the {{Parameter}} will reference the new {{ParameterDescriptor}} but the map key will still be the old one (because {{ParameterDescriptor.equals()}} is based on the {{name}} field only). This is an inconsistent data structure that may lead to bugs. Using simple String key with {{ParameterDescriptor.name}} could be a solution. To replicate the issue: - debug {{TestStandardParameterContext.testUpdateDescription()}} and stop at this line: [https://github.com/apache/nifi/blob/7d8f99a1f41bb1806706c5db857f109c5d7b4e7f/nifi-nar-bundles/nifi-framework-bundle/nifi-framework/nifi-framework-components/src/test/java/org/apache/nifi/parameter/TestStandardParameterContext.java#L128] - check the key/value in {{context.parameters}} -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.1#820001)
