Re: [Firebird-devel] damn gbak Win32 error

Some notes.

I've found one problem in isql. It defined DB_name to only hold 128 chars,
and not checking that the filename did fit in this space. I changed it to
1k, but it seems like a pretty bad solution anyway to carry around
fixed-size filename buffers.

Another problem that has to do with error reporting and truncated filenames
is that iberr.h defines MAX_ERRSTR_LEN to 255. I.e. the maximum length of
any error message (including path+filename) is 255 chars. This will
obviously fail to report the real filename.

Just a few observations.
