## Data Types

Our goal is to support every SQL Server data type and covert it to a logical Ruby object. When dates or times are returned, they are instantiated to either `:utc` or `:local` time depending on the query options. Only [datetimeoffset] types are excluded. All strings are associated the to the connection's encoding and all binary data types are associated to Ruby's `ASCII-8BIT/BINARY` encoding.

Below is a list of the data types we support when using the 7.4 TDS protocol version. Using a lower protocol version will result in these types being returned as strings.

Creating a new client takes a hash of options. For valid iconv encoding options, see the output of `iconv -l`. Only a few have been tested and highly recommended to leave blank for the UTF-8 default.

* :username - The database server user.
* :password - The user password.
* :dataserver - Can be the name for your data server as defined in freetds.conf. Raw hostname or hostname:port will work here too. FreeTDS says that named instance like 'localhost\SQLEXPRESS' work too, but I highly suggest that you use the :host and :port options below.
