Hi,

I want to create a groovy class for common parameters for my jenkinks-pipline project.

I created parameters class [Jenkins-pipline/src/org/parameters/parameters.groovy at fc44878b050718e7f54344182654e9d690a6bdd0 · OdedViner/Jenkins-pipline · GitHub](https://github.com/OdedViner/Jenkins-pipline/blob/fc44878b050718e7f54344182654e9d690a6bdd0/src/org/parameters/parameters.groovy)  
Imported it on job1 DSL [Jenkins-pipline/jobs/job1.groovy at fc44878b050718e7f54344182654e9d690a6bdd0 · OdedViner/Jenkins-pipline · GitHub](https://github.com/OdedViner/Jenkins-pipline/blob/fc44878b050718e7f54344182654e9d690a6bdd0/jobs/job1.groovy#L1)  
Tried to get the common param on job1 DSL

Ran my seed job and got this error:

```auto
Processing DSL script jobs/job1.groovy
ERROR: startup failed:
job1.groovy: 1: unable to resolve class org.parameters.parameters
 @ line 1, column 1.
   @Library('utils') import org.parameters.parameters
   ^

job1.groovy: 1: unable to resolve class Library , unable to find class for annotation
 @ line 1, column 1.
   @Library('utils') import org.parameters.parameters
   ^

2 errors

Finished: FAILURE

```

Can you assist me to find the issue?

Job DSL is a different groovy runtime than Jenkins pipeline.

Job DSL can import classes the plugin references as plugin dependencies; however, you can work around this by loading from the uberClassloader.

@Library is a feature of Jenkins pipeline and is not available in Job DSL jobs.
