How to get column datatype from glideElement?

[Pradnya6]

In a script include I want to get the column datatype.
var gr = new GlideRecord('cmdb_ci_solaris_server');
gr.setLimit(20);
gr.query();
if (gr.next())
{
var ele = gr.getElement('name');
}

from the above code I get the glideElement. Is there any method which will return the datatype (Internal_Type) of the column?

This is how you can get a column's internal type:

var type = gr.getElement('name').getED().getInternalType();
