Hi *,

We currently migrate a customer application written in Uniface 5.2 / database Oracle 6 and under Unix 8 to Uniface 7.2.06 / database Oracle 8.1.7 HP/Unix 11.

A great part of the application was written in Pro*C.

After very much problems with the 'make', we finally find our way to a running application but we still have a big problem with all the Pro*C!

Every string function seems to be working a different way then on the initial application.
Most of the time, it's a problem with the '/0' end of string, in other cases the data's find by a SQL statement have a lenght problem for further use,and so on.

We already use different switches for compilation('-Ac') but the strings problem is still there.

One possibility we have is to change all the code to insert some string function but ... it's a lot of work.

The question is, does anyone know with switch we could use to avoid the problem.

Thanks in advance.
Regards,
