booleanParam will give String variable

Issue Type:	Bug
Assignee:	Sam Van Oort
Components:	pipeline-stage-view-plugin

Environment:	Jenkins ver. 2.164.2
Priority:	Minor
Reporter:	Christian Opitz

Defining a boolean parameter will not return a boolean value as expected, but a String value.

Defining the parameter:{{}}

 
                                                                parameters { booleanParam(name: 'bForceCheckout', defaultValue: false, description: '') } 
                                                            

Checking the type...

 
                                                                println bForceCheckout.getClass()

...will give you:

 
                                                                09:06:03 class java.lang.String

This of course leads to some nice behaviour when checking the variable in conditions...
