How to handle unsigned int32 data coming from FQL Stream table for actor_id attribute?

Question

$query =  "SELECT post_id,actor_id,message FROM stream WHERE source_id = 222104997886913 LIMIT 5 "

I am using 2 different types of Facebook Api calls

1. $results = $facebook -> api('/fql?query='.urlencode($query).'&access_token=XXX');

2. $results = json_decode(file_get_contents('https://graph.facebook.com/fql?query='.urlencode($query).'&access_token=XXX'));

I get all the data correct in both case, but in case 2 , I get " 2.2210499788691E+14 " this type of actor id. This actor id is fine showing " 222104997886913 " in 1st call. and is showing " unsigned int32 " in 2nd call as described in https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/fql/stream.

I want to use the 2nd api call and get the full accurate " 222104997886913 " actor id instead of " 2.2210499788691E+14 " for actor_id attribute.

What my masters suggest for this problem ?

Thanks in advance.

This will work for you. Try this $array = json_decode($json, true, 512, JSON_BIGINT_AS_STRING)
