Helo !
I'm in developing lib for Linux (some information at
ocicpplib.sourceforge.net) to provide a simple interface to Oracle 8/8i from c++
and i have some problems understanding OCI. The questions should be simple for
you but i don't find out how to solve it :
1) Fetching numbers: at the moment i
doing next thing: I take a number precision and if i's not null allocates
buffer of length precision+1 and request SQLT_STR for number.
If it's 0 assume 255 bytes long buffer is enough but it not looks like a right
way :( Can u tell me how u solve this problem ?
4) Using OCIAttrGet(...OCI_ATTR_NAME) i passint the pointer to pointer to buffer
and get a pointer to some buffer containing attribute name. The only way to do
that safe in single-threaded application is static buffer somethere deeper
inside OCIAttrGet().But I can't understand how it works in multi-threaded
environment.Should i do free() on returned pointer or not ? I'm asking it
because using JDBC OCI with Oracle 8 i've noticed memory leaks. Using thin
drivers solve this problem .. but ...
I Thank you beforehand for your help.
