Hi,everyone.I have a problem about active record boolean field.
My table schema sql is:
CREATE TABLE `foo` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`isbar` bool NOT NULL ,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 ;
I have a Foo.php as:
class Foo extends CActiveRecord
{
public function rules()
{
return array(
array('isbar','boolean'),
);
}

}

I have a $fooObject which is an instance of Foo. let
$isbar=$fooObject->isbar;
$json=json_encode($isbar);
I found that $json is a string like "0" or "1",but what I need is 0 ,1 ,false or true.

In a word, how can I let boolean property return integer or boolean?

Whenever I attempt to create a boolean field in InnoDB, it creates a field of type tinyint(1). I'd recommend changing your table schema to use that type, which should be recognised as an integer by PDO.

I have tried tinyint(1),but nothing change.Actually,when I use bool in mysql,it creates a field of type tinyint(1) too. They are the same thing to mysql.

Sorry!I misunderstood your meaning.After some researches,I knew this is a php 'bug'.
Now my question become:how to detect a field is tinyint(1) type in active record?
what is the correct api for something like $fooObject->metadata->columns["isbar"]->fieldtype==="boolean"?
