Good find, that's clearly wrong. The test case is interesting.

Based on what I can read in sqlda.c (ecpg_set_compat_sqlda() and ecpg_set_native_sqlda()), the data length calculated adds an extra byte to the data length when storing the data references in sqldata. execute.c and ecpg_store_result() is actually much trickier than that (see particularly the part where the code does an "allocate memory for NULL pointers", where varcharsize could also be 0), still I agree that this assumption should be OK. The code is as it is for many years, with its logic to do an estimation of allocation first, and then read the data at once in the whole area allocated.. This thinko has been introduced by 3b7ab43, so this needs to go down to v11. I'll see to that. -- Michael
