Greetings,
In attempting to convert a database modified by the MobileDB v2.1
application, I ran into a problem where I was getting the error
message.
'test1.pdb: maximum number of fields exceeded'
At the time of the error, the value of field is 20 and the value of
getMaxNumOfFields() is 20. Making a small change (below), seems to
have worked around the problem for me. (The odd thing with this data
is that no record actually has more than 14 fields.) A copy of the
test1.pdb to test this one is available via
http://www.employees.org/~mdb/mobiledb-data/
as the test1.pdb (55k) file.
The next problem I have run into is with a database created directly
on the Pam using MobileDB v2.1. The pdb2csv error returned is
'test2.pdb: data record has the wrong number of fields'
A copy of the test2.pdb to test this one is available via
http://www.employees.org/~mdb/mobiledb-data/
as the test2.pdb (1k) file.
I am not sure of the correct fix for the test2.pdb case.
If you have any suggestions, I'd appreciate hearing about them.
Thank you,
-- Mark
