title: Are Parameters from an URL always strings?
body: <p>This is a REST Architecture
  I have an URL like: <a href="http://localhost:8080/api/v1/layout/xyz/9/0/5/0" rel="nofollow">http://localhost:8080/api/v1/layout/xyz/9/0/5/0</a></p>
  
  <p>After I retrieved the data via a Service (typescript) the typeof tells me that I have a String and not a number. </p>
  
  <pre><code>@PUT('layout')
      public saveLayout(name: string, @body('Visuals') body, dimX: number, dimY: number, dimWidth: number, dimHeigth: number ) {
          console.log("typeof dimX", typeof(dimX));
          this._wsRA.deleteVOs(name, dimX, dimY, dimWidth, dimHeigth);
      }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Did I miss something here? I do not get an error passing the data to the service,I would have expected that I would on if a string goes to a number?</p>
