Is it possible to make the data type of a column in a table

Is it possible to make the data type of a column in a table an object of a class?

For instance, if I have a class that manages strings called “MyString”, is it possible to use it instead of varchar?

    No, you cannot. That’s why we have ORM : Object Relational Mapping

    Quoting Wikipedia :

    Object-relational mapping (ORM, O/RM, and O/R mapping) in computer
    software is a programming technique for converting data between
    incompatible type systems in object-oriented programming languages.
    This creates, in effect, a “virtual object database”

    I think that’s what you were looking for, good luck !

    For good ORMs libraries in PHP, look at this : Good PHP ORM Library? on S.O
