Returns a serialized representation of the integer value suitable for storing in SimpleDB.

attribute.serialize(123)
#=> '123'

@param [Integer] integer The number to serialize. @param [Hash] options @return [String] A serialized representation of the integer.

# File lib/aws/record/attributes.rb, line 215
def self.serialize integer, options = {}
  expect(Integer, integer) { integer }
end

Returns value cast to an integer. Empty strings are cast to nil by default. Type casting is done by calling to_i on the value.

int_attribute.type_cast('123')
#=> 123

int_attribute.type_cast('')
#=> nil

@param [Mixed] value The value to type cast to an integer. @return [Integer,nil] Returns the type casted integer or nil
