In our organization we have some old apps written in Gupta Centura (AKA
Team Developer 1.5.1):
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gupta_Technologies
We use extensively this RAD with Postgers database, using the odbc
driver as a glue.
I've deployed an upgrade of the ODBC driver from 8.XX to 9.XX, and
suddenly these apps stop working, doing strange things.
I'm currently using driver version 09.00.0200, and a simple query like:
Call SqlPrepareAndExecute(hsql,'select sum(dare),sum(avere) into :daren,:averen from tmp_articoli')
return errors like:
select sum(dare),sum(avere) into :daren,:averen from tmp_articoli
Attempt to fetch non-numeric data into numeric column
Reason: One of the application's sqlssb function calls set up a fetch
buffer that is defined as numeric but the data that was fetched
cannot be converted to a numeric value.
postgres (DB) version are 8.3.14 (debian lenny); table schema:
registra27=# \d tmp_articoli
Tabella "public.tmp_articoli"
Colonna | Tipo | Modificatori

What changed between odbc driver 8 and 9? Thanks.
