The issue is also referenced here: There's a problem representing anything larger than 2^53 in Javascript, but it looks like there's a request for it to be patched upstream using this library: https://github.com/broofa/node-int64. Any thoughts? I'd like to see counters in helenus, though none of my counters involve anything needing 53 bits of precision. |

I copied most of the parts of the methods which seemed still applicable instead of re-writing them entirely. I think its okay since most of it was generated by the script in the first place.
This thread gives you a decent idea of what javascript can support in terms of precision:

Seemed to work for random ranges of positive and negative longs that I tested with. You might want to change the parser back to BinaryParser.toLong, but that is up to you. I think it does not exactly work with the new format, but I'm not sure.
Can you pull the counter column pull request in Helenus with this change?
Thanks!
