Bug reference: 1449
Logged by: Michael Robinton
Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
PostgreSQL version: 7.4.6
Operating system: linux
Description: JDBC client driver bug waiting to happen
Details:
if "int size" is set to 8, there is insufficient storage in "int n" to
accomodate 8 bytes of storage since jave thinks an int is 4 bytes. Since
currently no 8 byte longs are sent, this bug is not apparent.
