Is your change request related to a problem? Please describe.

When sending a command to a database, the parameters may have a type associated with them (in MSSQL they always have, not sure about other databases). At the moment only the value of the parameter is stored, but not the type.

Describe the solution you'd like

Split db.query.parameter.<key> into

• db.query.parameter.<key>.value which stores the value as previously db.query.parameter.<key>
• db.query.parameter.<key>.type which stores the parameter type

Describe alternatives you've considered

One possibility would be to store the type as part of the value, like

db.query.parameter.foo=42 (Int32)

However parsing this now need special logic, especially for strings.
