Hello,

In j3.6 + php7 following return a list of strings. Columns data types are not rendered.

<?php 
$db = JFactory::getDbo();
$query = $db->getQuery(true);
$query->select('*');
$query->from($db->qn('#__users'));
$db->setQuery($query);
?>
<pre><?php echo var_dump( $db->loadObjectList()); ?></pre>

More problematic is

<?php 
$user = JFactory::getUser();
$user_id = $user->id;
?>

$user_id is not recognized as an integer.

Do you know how to return data with their native type?

Regards
Michel
