MongoDB: Values of almost all types (integer, decimal etc.) are all converted to Strings #1104

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
In MongoApplier.java, there's this line:
doc.put(name, value.toString())

https://code.google.com/p/tungsten-replicator/source/browse/trunk/replicator/src
/java/com/continuent/tungsten/replicator/applier/MongoApplier.java#338

So values of almost all types are all converted to Strings. For example, 
Integers in MySQL are converted to Strings in MongoDB, thus programs using 
MongoDB must add conversions. This is very tedious.

Please keep the types of the values.

This behavior is by design. 
Users so far have not complained.
You are welcome to write a more versatile applier. 
Please use the mailing list for this kind of discussion, as this is not a bug.
