Re: ECPG Segfault and variable usage question. |
An added data point for this bug
I have seen a similar problem, although it seems to only manifest itself in long (1000+ line) source files. It seems to have something to do with using macros rather than explicit constants to define array dimensions. I'd be willing to bet that the below code example would compile by adding
#define CL_2 (2*CHAR_LENGTH)
...
char var[CL_2];
...
There seem to be 2 work arounds: either use a shorter macro name, or break long files into smaller pieces.

Hello,
this is a code snippet that causes ECPG to segfault. It's quite tricky
to produce, as changing the variable name from 'var' to 'myvar' already
causes things to compile fine ...
#define CHAR_LENGTH 25
myfunction ()
{
EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;
char var[2*CHAR_LENGTH];
EXEC SQL END DECLARE SECTION;
EXEC SQL DECLARE mycursor CURSOR FOR
SELECT att1, att2
FROM mytable
WHERE att1 LIKE :var ESCAPE '\\';
EXEC SQL OPEN mycursor;
}
Stack trace was obtained using a snapshot from about 2 weeks ago, ECPG from
the 7.4.1 release segfaults also.

Another problem that's giving me headaches trying to find a workaround for
is the following use of variables as data sources in INSERT/UPDATE
statements:
:myarray[index[10]]
Any comments, suggestions, hints ? Thanks a lot,
Jürgen
