Neo4j cypher "..return ID(n)" result type differ in embedded and standalone database

[VladoK]

Hi,
when I execute cypher query like this "START n=node(1) RETURN ID(n)" the result type is Long.class in case the neo4j database is embedded, but run as standalone server accessed through Rest API (org.springframework.data.neo4j.rest.SpringRestGra phDatabase) the result is Integer.class.

I think that difference occurred in conversion process in client server mode. JSON response is :
{
"data" : [ [ 1 ] ],
"columns" : [ "ID(n)" ]
}

Type information isn't preserved so parser creates Integer instance of Id.

I think it must be Long type in both situations. Am I right?
Thanks

Vlado,

That looks like a problem, can you raise a ticket for it please: https://jira.springsource.org/browse/DATAGRAPH

In the mean time, is it possible for you to tunnel those value as String perhaps?

This is a problem of the JSON parse, it parses the Number just as int, not much we can do there. As we don't have type information on the JSON REST result (yet).
