[Dbi-interbase-devel] bug in data type processing in fetch

[Mark D. A. <md...@di...>]

at least in the case of generator values, it seems over aggressive in treating
integers as floats.

isql:
SQL> select GEN_ID(bscounter,0) from RDB$DATABASE;
               GEN_ID
=====================
                    2

but with perl
      my $val = $dbh->selectrow_array('select GEN_ID(bscounter,0) from RDB$DATABASE');
     print $val;

i get:

2.0

dunno if this is generator-specific or not. seems like if scale is non-negative, and precision is small
enough, it should be made an int, not a float.
