I'm using an ORM framework. It tries to generate the appropriate object of the data value using the returned data type. No type, no object. My only option would be to tear into the framework and bypass/override a lot of code, thereby potentially nullifying the need of the framework.
I guess I'm mystified why there are types not returned. Other tools show/return them? Please enlighten me.
