How to get MySQL Native Data Type values?

How do I get the native data type like we get in ORACLE using

OCIAttrGet(colHandle, OCI_DTYPE_PARAM, (dvoid *) &dataType, 0,
OCI_ATTR_DATA_TYPE, m_errorHandle);

It will return &datatype value for:
VARCHAR2 - 1
NUMBER - 2
Date - 12

How do we achieve this in MYSQL 5.1?
I saw in manual but not found any pointer. There is no any point described for native data types value.

NDB_SHOW_TABLES 					       MySQL Database System						   NDB_SHOW_TABLES

NAME
ndb_show_tables - display list of NDB tables SYNOPSIS
ndb_show_tables [options] DESCRIPTION
ndb_show_tables displays a list of all NDB database objects in the cluster. By default, this includes not only both user-created tables and NDB system tables, but NDB-specific indexes, internal triggers, and MySQL Cluster Disk Data objects as well. The following table includes options that are specific to the MySQL Cluster native backup restoration program ndb_show_tables. Additional descriptions follow the table. For options common to most MySQL Cluster programs (including ndb_show_tables), see Options Common to MySQL Cluster Programs(1). Table 17.26. ndb_show_tables Options and Variables: MySQL Cluster NDB 7.2 +--------------------------+--------------------------------------+-------------------------------------+ |Format | Description | Added / Removed | +--------------------------+--------------------------------------+-------------------------------------+ | | Specifies the database in which the | | | --database=string, | table is found | All MySQL 5.5 based releases | | | | | | -d | | | +--------------------------+--------------------------------------+-------------------------------------+ | | Number of times to repeat output | | | --loops=#, | | All MySQL 5.5 based releases | | | | | | -l | | | +--------------------------+--------------------------------------+-------------------------------------+ | | Limit output to objects of this type | | | --type=#, | | All MySQL 5.5 based releases | | | | | | -t | | | +--------------------------+--------------------------------------+-------------------------------------+ | | Do not qualify table names | | | --unqualified, | | All MySQL 5.5 based releases | | | | | | -u | | | +--------------------------+--------------------------------------+-------------------------------------+ | | Return output suitable for MySQL | | | --parsable, | LOAD DATA INFILE statement | All MySQL 5.5 based releases | | | | | | -p | | | +--------------------------+--------------------------------------+-------------------------------------+ | | Show table temporary flag | | | --show-temp-status | | All MySQL 5.5 based releases | +--------------------------+--------------------------------------+-------------------------------------+ Usage ndb_show_tables [-c connect_string] o --database, -d Specifies the name of the database in which the tables are found. o --loops, -l Specifies the number of times the utility should execute. This is 1 when this option is not specified, but if you do use the option, you must supply an integer argument for it. o --parsable, -p Using this option causes the output to be in a format suitable for use with LOAD DATA INFILE. o --show-temp-status If specified, this causes temporary tables to be displayed. o --type, -t Can be used to restrict the output to one type of object, specified by an integer type code as shown here: o 1: System table o 2: User-created table o 3: Unique hash index Any other value causes all NDB database objects to be listed (the default). o --unqualified, -u If specified, this causes unqualified object names to be displayed. Note Only user-created MySQL Cluster tables may be accessed from MySQL; system tables such as SYSTAB_0 are not visible to mysqld. However, you can examine the contents of system tables using NDB API applications such as ndb_select_all (see ndb_select_all(1)). COPYRIGHT
