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.

MYSQLI_SSL_SET(3)							 1							 MYSQLI_SSL_SET(3)

mysqli::ssl_set - Used for establishing secure connections using SSL

       Object oriented style

SYNOPSIS
bool mysqli::ssl_set (string $key, string $cert, string $ca, string $capath, string $cipher) DESCRIPTION
Procedural style bool mysqli_ssl_set (mysqli $link, string $key, string $cert, string $ca, string $capath, string $cipher) Used for establishing secure connections using SSL. It must be called before mysqli_real_connect(3). This function does nothing unless OpenSSL support is enabled. Note that MySQL Native Driver does not support SSL before PHP 5.3.3, so calling this function when using MySQL Native Driver will result in an error. MySQL Native Driver is enabled by default on Microsoft Windows from PHP version 5.3 onwards. PARAMETERS
o $ link -Procedural style only: A link identifier returned by mysqli_connect(3) or mysqli_init(3) o $key - The path name to the key file. o $cert - The path name to the certificate file. o $ca - The path name to the certificate authority file. o $capath - The pathname to a directory that contains trusted SSL CA certificates in PEM format. o $cipher - A list of allowable ciphers to use for SSL encryption. Any unused SSL parameters may be given as NULL RETURN VALUES
This function always returns TRUE value. If SSL setup is incorrect mysqli_real_connect(3) will return an error when you attempt to con- nect. SEE ALSO
