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 this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=63356&edit=1
