How to get an INTEGER data type in Oracle 11g?

HDuqueCSep 7 2014 — edited Oct 30 2014

Hi to all.

I'm quite new in Oracle and I need to migrate an Informix database to Oracle 11g. The Informix database has a lot of primary keys as INTEGER data type (id's).

Making some tests in Oracle with similar database structure replacing the INTEGER by NUMBER(10,0), the client application crashes because it finds a DOUBLE data type instead an INTEGER for the primary keys.

Is there any way to mask the NUMBER(10,0) data type to be shown as if it where an INTEGER type.

Regards,

Hernando.
