366=head2 Type Deduction
367
368Since every database driver seems to deduce parameter types differently,
369usually wrongly, and at leats in the case of DBD::mysql, different in
370every other release or so, and this can and does lead to data corruption,
371this module does type deduction itself.
372
373What does it mean? Simple - sql parameters for placeholders will be
374explicitly marked as SQL_VARCHAR, SQL_INTEGER or SQL_DOUBLE the first time
375a statement is prepared.
376
377To force a specific type, you can either continue to use e.g. sql casts,
378or you can make sure to consistently use strings or numbers. To make a
379perl scalar look enough like a string or a number, use this when passing
380it to sql_exec or a similar functions:
381
382 "$string" # to pass a string
383 $num+0 # to pass a number
