This is the snippet of code that might be causing this (it's in gda-mysql-connection.c, line 338):

  case FIELD_TYPE_TINY_BLOB:
		case FIELD_TYPE_MEDIUM_BLOB: return GDA_TypeVarbin;
		case FIELD_TYPE_LONG_BLOB:
		case FIELD_TYPE_BLOB: return GDA_TypeLongvarbin;

How should we deal with them? Should all TINY_BLOB return GDA_TypeVarbin
and LONG_BLOB return GDA_TypeLongvarbin ??? Or are new GDA types the
best solution?

Bye.
