The type conversion from ObjectId to String is invalid compared to previous MongoDB versions.
In Mongo 2.0.x:
var oid = new ObjectId("50575c152c2414982d000003"); var oidAsString = String(oid); print(typeof oidAsString); // string print(oidAsString); // 50575c152c2414982d000003
In Mongo 2.2.x:
var oid = new ObjectId("50575c152c2414982d000003"); var oidAsString = String(oid); print(typeof oidAsString); // string print(oidAsString); // ObjectId("50575c152c2414982d000003")
I would expect the converted value to be the hex string as described in 2.0.x.
This issue is similar to SERVER-5439, however, this is not an improvement but a bug.
