[Mysqlcppapi-main] Working with float/double types?

[Thomas D. M. <tho...@se...>]

Hi,

I am getting a segmentation fault when trying to do the following:

	Result_Store result = query.store();
	double d = result[0][0];

where the result is a float in the database. I have also tried casting
to float (just in case), and outputting via a stream operator with the
same result. I started to look at ColData.h, but thought I would report
it in case it is a known issue and there is already a fix (probably a
new macro definition) available.

I am using mysqlcppapi-1.7 (though everything is installed as 1.9??) on
Linux with the new mysql-4.0.12. Everything else works fine. (It would
probably be a good idea to regression test against all possible MySQL
column types for these sorts of things.)

I might add that I find it a very useful library, that behaves exactly
as I expect it should, with minimal overhead. Good job, and thanks!

Please use an explicit test - I know gcc suggest just an extra set of
parenthesis, but I'm personally convinced that is just because some gcc
people have been damaged by too much LISP.
