Specifying a primitive property type in a Cypher CREATE clause

Question

Unlike perhaps a Java API, it seems, there is no way to tell whether a numeric property byte, short, intor long:

CREATE (n:Test {value: 1}) RETURN n

a property is always created long. I tried toInt(), but it is clearly understood in the mathematical sense of "integer" more than in the sense of the computer data type.

Is there some way I can just force a type?

We defined the model and want to insert test data using Cypher instructions, but the code using the data then failed with the help ClassCastException, because the types do not match.

((Number)n.getProperty("value")).xxxValue() (xxx = int, long, byte)
