Bug 17191 – HTML5: Client-side database queries should return values of type number

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: Platform

[Kimmo Kinnunen]

HTML5 Client-side database storage spec doesn't seem to say what type of return values queries should return. However, it'd make sense in some cases to get numbers as results of queries. Currently DB queries return only string values.

SQLite doesn't enforce the column types, but at least it'd be useful to get the same type out as was put in.

This looks good.

No need for the braces around the for loop now. Remove them to match our style.

             for (int i = 0; i < columnCount; i++) {
-                // FIXME: Look at the column type?
-                rows->addResult(statement.getColumnText(i));
+                rows->addResult(statement.getColumnValue(i));
             }

Will land this shortly, just incorporating tim's comment and building, etc.
