Hi Moritz,

As a starting point are you able to get the sample walkthrough SPASQL 
application we have  at:

        
http://virtuoso.openlinksw.com/dataspace/dav/wiki/Main/VirtSPASQLWinFormApp

working ?

The booleans being mapped to integers is a known issue that is scheduled to be 
fixed in a future/next release ...

Best Regards
Hugh Williams
