[Dbi-interbase-devel] I found why coredumps!!!

[Michael S. <mi...@ch...>]

Hello Edwin,

%subj%!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When $dbh->trace(5) it cannot find ib_dateformat and dumps. When I set
pass it as attribute for $sth->prepare, it works.

Debug output without attrs:
...
Decode passed.
ib_dateformat: (null).
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

With attrs:
...
Decode passed.
ib_dateformat: %c.
Len: 2.

I  didn't  see  much  into  logic and don't know why the format is not
being set. Could you, please, fix it ASAP? I hope it's not hard.

I think it would be the best if you set all the default attributes
just in the begin of "prepare", like this:

if (attribs && (svp = DBD_ATTRIB_GET_SVP(attribs, "ib_dateformat", 13)) != NULL)
  IB_SQLtimeformat(imp_sth->ib_dateformat, svp);
else
  IB_SQLtimeformat(imp_sth->ib_dateformat, "%c");

It will save as from the further checkings.

Here's  the dirty hack attached. It fixes the current problem, but I'm
not  sure  whether the programs will coredump at exit now. It would be
fine if it didn't yet.

Best regards,
 Michael                          mailto:mi...@ch...
