Question

I have the following code as my entity:

/**
 *
 * @Entity
 * @Table(name="group")
 *
 **/
Class Group {

/**
 *
 * @Column(type="string", nullable=true)
 **/
 private $phone;

(etc...)

__get( $var ) {
return $this->$var;
}
__set( $var, $val ){
 $this->$var = $val;
}

I then try to modify this with a number larger than nine digits. for example,

$group->phone = 5147811326;

$phone is set to 2147483647. The same occurs with 1111111111 (it is conveted to 2147483647)

If I try 514781, it keeps the numbers fine. But over 9 digits it just converts. I originally had the mysql column as an integer but converted it to string…still a problem.

what is happening?!??!!

Answer 1

This means the data type you are using is 32 bits. 2147483647 is equal to 2³¹ − 1.
