I didn't read all the original discussion, but I'll point out that there's more than one c++ library that has at least attempted (we can argue the level of success) to provide the generalized sort of interface people are asking for. There's some significant thinking and effort that went into that. Have a look at soci
FYI, I mentioned SOCI in https://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2020/03/248307.php
-- not saying it's perfect, best or right -- just that I've used it in production systems and even written a backend for it to a database that isn't supported out of the box. They worked out all the issues for binding custom types like date_time, etc...
Another, thin, approach to binding some types can be found in https://github.com/nanodbc/nanodbc Best regards, -- Mateusz Loskot, http://mateusz.loskot.net
