Option::<bool>::from_value_opt behavior

[wqfish]

The following code prints Some(true).

let value = Value::Int(1);
let out = Option::<bool>::from_value_opt(value).unwrap();
println!("{:?}", out);

The following code panics:

let value = Value::UInt(1);
let out = Option::<bool>::from_value_opt(value).unwrap();
println!("{:?}", out)

Is it expected that Int(1) can be converted to Option<bool> while UInt(1) can't?

BTW I'm on version 0.25. The newer versions fail to compile (a bunch of tokio errors):

Hi, @wqfish.

Is it expected that Int(1) can be converted to Option<bool> while UInt(1) can't?

This behavior is explicitly stated in the docs (see the table here). Did you get this value from the server or it was created artificially?

Note that you should never get boolean value from the server as Value::UInt(1), even if it's declared as TINYINT(1) UNSIGNED.

BTW I'm on version 0.25. The newer versions fail to compile (a bunch of tokio errors)

Oh, thanks for pointing this out! CI couldn't catch this because of a bug in cargo (see rust-lang/cargo#1796). Please use v0.26.1 or v0.27.1.

Ah just artificial values. I'll look into the docs.
