Steps to ReproduceCREATE TABLE MyTable (Col1 INTEGER)

Defect Number
Enhancement Number
Cause
​This behavior is by design. 
Resolution
The Salesforce API/service does not support an INTEGER data type. The DataDirect Salesforce driver emulates support for an INTEGER using a DECIMAL data type. We chose to do so using a DECIMAL with a precision of 9 instead of 10. While using a precision of 10 will allow the column to support the full range of an INTEGER, it introduces the problem of the column being able to store values that are out of range for an INTEGER. We chose the behavior where some inserts of values that should fit into an INTEGER will fail, but that there will be no values in the table that would cause fetching the results as an INTEGER would fail.
