Description:
the MySQLCommandBuilder Object always sets SByte für Byte, Int32 for UInt32 (and so on) in the MySQLParameter.DbType and the IsUnsigned flag always is False; so if e.g. in a Byte column a value > 127 should be set, .NET crashes with an OverFlowException

How to repeat:
- create a table with unsigned Column(s)  (e.g. 'size')
- create code:

Sub test
  Dim da As New MySqlDataAdapter("SELECT size FROM test",conn)
  Dim cb As New MySqlCommandBuilder(da)

  Dim dt As New DataTable
  da.Fill(dt)

  Dim dv As New DataView(dt)
  Dim row as DataRowView

  row=dv.AddNew
  row("size")=120
  row.EndEdit
  da.Update(dv.Table)   '<= works, because value < 127

  row=dv.AddNew
  row("size")=135
  row.EndEdit
  da.Update(dv.Table)   '<= crashes with System.OverflowException

End Sub

  

Suggested fix:
Set IsUnsigned and DbType Properties correctly.
