Thread: [cx-oracle-users] Custom cursor segfaults

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

Hello all,

Just a quick question, ive created a custom cursor that returns result sets as dicts, following on from the previous posts about custom cursors segfaulting, i modified my the code to pass the connection to the cursor. It all seems to work fine with a simple test rig, however when i combine my module with Warren Smiths DbConnectionPool, i get a segfault when returning a result set.

Warrens module can be found at http://www.wandrsmith.net/~warren/DbConnectionPool.py

Here is my DictWrapper module (Using 4.1 beta)

If you could provide some pointers, or if you require any further debugging info please let me know. The system is Oracle 8i with corresponding drivers.

from cx_Oracle import *

# DictCursor for Oracle, returns dicts instead of tuples
class DictConnect(Connection):
        def cursor(self):
                return DictCursor(self)

class DictCursor(Cursor):
    def fetchall(self):
        r = Cursor.fetchall(self)
        result = []
        for l in r:
            result.append( dict([(a[0],b) for a,b in zip(self.description, l)]) )

        return result

    def fetchone(self):
        return dict([(a[0],b) for a,b in zip(self.description, Cursor.fetchone(self))])

# factory class
def connect(**kw):
        return DictConnect(**kw)

The test rig

import OracleUtil
db = OracleUtil.connect(user='****', password='****', dsn='oracle')
c = db.cursor()
print c
c.execute('select * from some_table where x = 3')
print c.fetchall()
db.close()
