Have it compiling no errors, will it work like 7.4 in regards to SQLascii? - Mailing list pgsql-odbc

Thanks for the off line suggestions. I did comment out the conn variable and got no warnings.

Will this lib work like the older 7.4 version ?

I currently have a sqlascii databse and the 7.4 will read French chars from that data base and display ok.

When I tried the 8.0.3 I had to convert to Unicode to get the French to display ok, but I found multiple oledb errors when several users got onto the system.

I had to switch back to the 7.4 drivers and SQLASCII data base because of the errors.

I can of course do the conversion again (takes aprx 12 hours to convert using my .net application, which reads from SQLASCII and writes to UNICODE).

I was not able to use either the 8.0.3 msi install (pre libpq) or the at the time beta not for production use libpq vewrsion without getting errors.

I will definitely try testing the UNICODE database with the current libpq more robustly to see if I can isolate what the issues were.

I had a tester working with a UNICODE database for a day with 8.0.3 msi install (pre libpq) driver and did not have errors, so I was disappointed finding when I tried in production it was returning errors.

I wanted to add I appreciate all the work everyone has been doing and hope I can get a more dependable solution worked out. At this moment the 7.4 drivers seem to lock up the IIS every now and then (I am guessing this is some kind of Unicode in ascii issue).

I compiled the snapshot version ok in visual studio 6 version of C++ (couldn’t seem to figure out the .net configuration, but I am not a c++ guy).

I did get one warning

d:\joel\wazagua_src\psqlodbc\results.c(3063) : warning C4101: 'conn' : unreferenced local variable

Is this something I need worry about?

Also is that the most fixed code or do I need to get on a csv or something.

Is

http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/odbc/versions/snapshots/

where I need to be?

Is psqlodbclibpq-08 01 0001.zip the file to look at?

Do I have to compile it or is the a dll in there as well?

I appreciate the help thanks.
