#1 #define ⇒ enum?
Would you like to replace more defines for constant values by enumerations to stress their relationships?

I would appreciate if you could be more specific here. The best way is to provide a patch against the current version so it is easy for everyone to see which defines you'd like to change, and what the benefits are going to be.
The benefits are the following.
1. Symbols like "DBI_TYPE_...", "DBI_INTEGER_..." and "DBI_DECIMAL_" can be clearly displayed in a debugger.
2. Enumerations provide further data types that can be reused.
Which names would you choose for corresponding identifiers?
