----------------------------------
    Component/s: Core Framework

> 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
>          Components: Core Framework
>            Reporter: Peter Turcsanyi
>            Priority: Major
>
> {{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}}
