Mongo shell inserts floats instead of integers?

[Boris Granveaud]

Hi,

I've noticed that when I insert a document in shell, numbers are
always float even if they could be stored as integer.

For exemple:

db.test.insert({value:0});

When I load this document in Java, value is a Double. This is annoying
because my application manipulates Integer but if I insert by hand a
document to do a test, I got a Double. So I have to handle both cases
like this:

int value = ((Number) dbObject.get("value")).intValue();

not very nice....

Boris.

You should be able to use NumberLong to create an int from the shell -
this is an annoyance of JS, unfortunately:
