Integer store value is negative - ios

I have a Core Data model that contains an id field which is a Integer 16.
I noticed that the app was saving some object with a negative value in that field
For instance (from sqlite3 command line):
2|1|1|-32223||9|424968994|424968994|step`
I thought I'd switch to Integer 32 in order to fix it but the problem still remains. Object are still saved with a negative value in that field. I'm not quite sure why.
Was that right to switch to Integer 32? Should have this fixed the problem?
Edit: Example of value I want to save
For example the value I am storing is 33239 but it's saved as -32297

Being unsigned long compatible with Integer32 and Integer64, you should pass this type of var (unsigned long) to save in CoreData.

I have a similar issue.I am storing the 33675 integer value in CoreData but when i retrieve i got value like -26532.
In My case i defined my integer value as type int16 so range of int16 is -32,768 to 32,767 when i change my variable from int16 to int64 its resolved my issue.

max value of string in realm

I intended to get the max value of string type in Realm by maxOfProperty method as follows:
[[MyRealmObject allObjects] maxOfProperty:propertyName]
However, I encountered the following error:
maxProperty is not supported for string property
Considering I can't change the type of property, what should I do now?
maxOfProperty is only supported for int, float, double, and NSDate types, see more in docs.
There is no any builtin solution for your case, I'd suggest you to store the maximum value as a separate object and update it everytime you modify the database or just query all objects and find the maximum value by comparing it manually.
We can use this solution
[[[[MyRealmObject allObjects] sortedResultsUsingKeyPath:propertyName ascending:NO] firstObject] objectForKeyedSubscript:propertyName];

Strange result from SQLite query using Swift

I have a table in my DB. In that table, I have a value stored (it's a date, in milliseconds): "1424386800000", in a column named "fechainicio".
I have downloaded SQLite browser in my Mac to actually check that the value is stored, and its correct, and it is.
Later, in my code, I retrieve that value using this:
var fechaInicio:Int64=Int64(results!.intForColumn("fechainicio"))
When I do this, I am receiving the value "-1542342272".
Why is the value retrieved incorrectly?
I have tried also
var fechaInicio:Int64=results!.intForColumn("fechainicio").toIntMax()
and
var fechaInicio=results!.intForColumn("fechainicio")
Isn't Int64 the correct type to retrieve a long value from a database?
The int type from (Objective-)C is a 32-bit integer type (and mapped to Int32 in Swift). This means that the
- (int)intForColumn:(NSString*)columnName;
method from FMDB can return only 32-but values. This method ultimately calls the SQLite function
int sqlite3_column_int(sqlite3_stmt*, int iCol);
which returns the lower 32-bit of the value, without any overflow check.
The proper solution is to use
- (long)longForColumn:(NSString*)columnName;
instead which returns Int64 in Swift.

Rails 4.1 enum query

I am seeing Rails generate the wrong query value when I use an enum col value in a where clause, like this (self added for clarity). dominant_product_strategy is an enum.
def some_model_method_on_myModel
MyModel.where(dominant_product_strategy: self.dominant_product_strategy)
end
This produces the correct value (again, self just added for clarity):
MyModel.where(dominant_product_strategy: self.attributes["dominant_product_strategy"])
I'm guessing that Rails sees the enum as a string, and then converts to a integer value of zero. Ughhhhh!
Am I missing something?
This also works:
MyModelwhere(dominant_product_strategy: MyModel.dominant_product_strategies[dominant_product_strategy])
It seems to be that you have answered your question by yoursef. Enum variables is a hash:
{str1: int1, str2: int2, ...}
The value (integer) is storing in DB, and the string is just representation of the int value. When you call self.dominant_product_strategy, you get the representation (string) of dominant_product_strategy column storing as integer in DB.
I think that your first working solution (self.attributes["dominant_product_strategy"]) is fine.

What is the difference between AsInteger and Value in Delphi?

I want to know the difference between following two statements related to datasets in delphi.
dsMyDataSet.ParamByName('ID').AsInteger := 1122; //If ID is integer
dsMyDataSet.ParamByName('ID').AsString := '1122'; //If ID is string
and
dsMyDataSet.ParamByName('ID').Value := 1122; //ID is string or integer
Do these statements carry same meaning? Does "value" implicitly converts integer into string?
The TParam.AsInteger property, for instance, set the value and the data type of the parameter. TParam.Value does the same, but TParam will decide which type will be mapped to the value inside the Variant and not always it´s the data type you would like.
I advise you to set values by using the AsXXX properties only, since you will be in control of the parameter's data type, what can save you from having parameter binding errors.
So, answering your final question: no, the values won´t be converted to the right data type, you have to set the data type by selecting the right property to assign the value.

Sqlite WHERE clause and Delphi XE longword values

In Delphi XE, I am storing crc32 hash of a string in an SQlite database, in a column declared as INTEGER. My understanding is that SQlite does not distinguish among integer types: int, int64, signed and unsigned, they're all the same as far as the database is concerned. However, when I store a value declared as longword in Delphi, a WHERE clause fails to match on that value later.
My insert statement (trimmed down here) is:
INSERT INTO main VALUES (id, crc) (?, ?);
The longword value gets bound to the second parameter and all goes well. But when I do
SELECT id FROM main WHERE crc = ?;
the query returns no results.
Viewing the database in SQLiteSpy, the longword values are displayed as negative integers. If I execute the above SELECT with the negative value copy-and-pasted from that display, the query returns the expected record.
It would seem that when I bind a longword value to the INSERT statement, SQLIte does something else then when I bind the same longword value to the SELECT statement. Casting the value to integer (in Delphi code, not in SQL) fixes the problem, but it should not be necessary, and it'll be easy to forget to cast in other places. Is there a better solution? Is SQLite behaving correctly?
The problem is not in SQLite, but in the way you're binding your parameters to the SQLite engine.
Depending on the SQlite framework you're using, you must explicitely bound an Int64 to your statement:
INSERT INTO main VALUES (id, crc) (?, ?);
For example, using our framework, with a CRC declared as a Cardinal, you must use this code (and NOT any integer(CRC)):
sqlite3_check(RequestDB,sqlite3_bind_Int64(Request,2,Int64(CRC)));
If the above code doesn't work, this will always work:
var CRC64: Int64;
CRC64Rec: TInt64Rec absolute CRC64;
begin
CRC64Rec.Lo := CRC;
CRC64Rec.Hi := 0;
sqlite3_check(RequestDB,sqlite3_bind_Int64(Request,2,CRC64));
In all cases, without showing your own code about binding parameters, it's difficult to know what's wrong in your code.
