Req #63356 [NEW]: Add support for native php data types returned from Firebird PDO select queries

From: james at kenjim dot com Operating system: All PHP version: 5.4Git-2012-10-25 (Git) Package: PDO related Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:Add support for native php data types returned from Firebird PDO select queries Description: ------------ The data returned from a $rs->fetch() should use native data types when applicable. Currently all data is turned into strings. Using native data types will not only provide a way for the user to easily check the data type. It should also give a performance enhancement since everything does not need to be turned into a string. Some other database adapters already provide this ability. I have included a patch to add this functionality however I did have to modify /ext/pdo/pdo_stmt.c due to the way it was handling returning of zval's. It was expecting a ***zval when it really should of been a **zval. Due to this excessive pointer requirement any other pdo database driver that returns zval's will need to be fixed. I included in my patch a possible fix for the mysqlng pdo driver since I believe this is the only driver that uses it. I say possible fix because I have not tested the mysqlng support part of it. The patch also includes my patch for Bug #61183 - Firebird PDO memory corruption. It should also fix Bug #60052 - Integer returned as a 64bit integer on X64_86. It also fixes the patch that was improperly applied in Bug #47415 - PDO_Firebird segfaults when passing lowercased column name to bindColumn(). -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=63356&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63356&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63356&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63356&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63356&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63356&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63356&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63356&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63356&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63356&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63356&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63356&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63356&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63356&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63356&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63356&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63356&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63356&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63356&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63356&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63356&r=mysqlcfg
