How would static typing help here?
Thinking about C# and Dapper here 'cause they're what I'm used to, but, for example...
result = await connection.QueryAsync<ResultType>(QUERY);
(whereResultType
is a statically typed record, class, or struct shaped like the data you want returned.)Given a query that doesn't return something that matches any of
ResultType
's constructors, the code'll throw an exception at runtime complaining it needs a constructor that matches whatever it's returning, whereupon you'll notice it isn't asking for it to have adate
parameter, so the query must not be returning it.
