  1. JDBC buggy in 7.1beta3

    Stu Coates <stu_coates@mail.com> — 2001-01-15T22:20:11Z

    I reported a JDBC bug in the 7.1 beta1 release back in December and notice that the same bug is still present in the current beta 3 sources.  The problem relates to nested cursors failing and is quite simple to reproduce.  A simple test case can be found at:
    
    http://www.twospuds.com/pg7-1b3-jdbc-bug.tar.gz
    
    The 7.0.2 JDBC drivers work fine against the 7.1b3 backend, with a little tweaking for "long" rows.
    
    Peter (Mount) did acknowledge the bug but I have not heard anything on the list since then.  Is anyone looking at it?  Come to think of it, I haven't seen anything on the lists [HACKERS mainly] from Peter for a while.

    This is no longer a problem in 7.1.  The bug here was the same one
    introduced by the wrong version of Gunner's bytearray pooling patch
    being applied.  It was fixed in current sources by Peter commenting out
    the bytearray pooling.
    
    thanks,

    As I've said numerous times on lists and direct to people, I've had several 
    major problems which have hampered things since November, but I am now slowly 
    catching up. The problems have been:
    * 2 SCSI discs dying on my linux box 2 weeks ago
    * changing ISP's (now resolved)
    * Changing jobs, which mean I have to limit how much time I can spend at the 
    moment.
    * UK Dialup has been horrendous this last week
    
    Now, my linux box is up and running, but no networking. Due to my job Thursday 
    evenings are out now (learning German), so I can't finish of its rebuild before 
    Saturday. This is holding things up because I don't have a 7.1 backend to test 
    against (& I can't get it to build under NT yet either). So while she's down, 
    I've been doing other things that either don't need a backend to test, or (in 
    the case of the XML stuff) test against Oracle.
    
    What may be of use, is for people to email me again with any known bugs, so I 
    can compile a list of what needs to be done before 7.1, or what has already 
    been done/obsoleted or re-written from scratch.
    
    This weekend I'm planning on:
    
    Sat am: finish rebuild of linux box
    Sat pm: test current cvs against current 7.1beta
    Sun am: catch up with bug list
    Sun pm: If time, move over more stuff into contrib

    That's what I thought. I think theres several bugs that are being confused as 
    being the same at the moment.
