While trying to assign variables into some JSON file readed in a Pipeline Project.

Using this JSON file file.json:

[  
   {  
      "id":"1",
      "buildNumber":"",
      "lock":"false",
      "tag":"dbaix",
      "configurationFile":"path/someFile.properties"
   },
   {  
      "id":"2",
      "buildNumber":"",
      "lock":"true",
      "tag":"dbaix",
      "configurationFile":"path/someFile.properties"
   },
   {  
      "id":"3",
      "buildNumber":"2222222",
      "lock":"true",
      "tag":"dbaix",
      "configurationFile":"path/someFile.properties"
   }
]

You do:

jsonDictionary = readJSON file: "file.json"
jsonEnvDefinition = jsonDictionary.get(0);
buildNumberVar = "xx"
jsonEnvDefinition['buildNumber'] = "${buildNumberVar}"
echo "${jsonDictionary }"

I am getting in the output:

[[id:1, buildNumber:[bytes:[120, 120], strings:[, ], valueCount:1, values:[xx]], lock:true, tag:dbaix, configurationFile:path/someFile.properties], [id:2, buildNumber:, lock:true, tag:dbaix, configurationFile:path/someFile.properties], [id:3, buildNumber:2222222, lock:true, tag:dbaix, configurationFile:path/someFile.properties]]

Which doesn't make sense. Instead if I hard coded the value

jsonDictionary = readJSON file: "file.json"
jsonEnvDefinition = jsonDictionary.get(0);
jsonEnvDefinition['buildNumber'] = "xx"
echo "${jsonDictionary }"

I will get in the output:

[[id:1, buildNumber:xx, lock:true, tag:dbaix, configurationFile:path/someFile.properties], [id:2, buildNumber:, lock:true, tag:dbaix, configurationFile:path/someFile.properties], [id:3, buildNumber:2222222, lock:true, tag:dbaix, configurationFile:path/someFile.properties]]

Which make sense. I am expecting "xx" in buildNumber, but when using variables it is getting written some more complex string which I don't know how that value it is been created.
