Hello Jeremy, You are right about: char tvi_char[MAXDATEFIELDS];
I have already tried this and didn't work too, it keeps giving the index error! About: if (sscanf(str, " ( %s , %s )", tvi_char, tvf_char) != 2) I test tvi_char and tvf_char with StringToDateADT(tvi_char). Just date types are allowed! Any other suggestions?? Thanks! -----Original Message----- From: Jeremy Drake [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: segunda-feira, 4 de junho de 2007 00:23 To: Rodrigo Sakai Cc: PostgreSQL Hackers Subject: Re: [HACKERS] ERROR: index row size Just glancing at this, a couple things stand out to me: On Mon, 4 Jun 2007, Rodrigo Sakai wrote: > Datum > periodo_in(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) > { > char *str = PG_GETARG_CSTRING(0); > char tvi_char[MAXDATEFIELDS]; > char tvf_char[MAXDATEFIELDS]; > > tvi_char = (char *) palloc(strlen(MAXDATEFIELDS)); What are you doing here? This is completely broken. I think you meant to say: char *tvi_char; tvi_char = palloc(MAXDATEFIELDS); Or: char tvi_char[MAXDATEFIELDS]; and no palloc. > tvf_char = (char *) palloc(strlen(MAXDATEFIELDS)); Same as above. > > Periodo *result; > > if (sscanf(str, " ( %s , %s )", tvi_char, tvf_char) != 2) This is asking for trouble if arbitrary input can be fed to this. > ereport(ERROR, > (errcode(ERRCODE_INVALID_TEXT_REPRESENTATION), > errmsg("invalid input syntax for periodo: \"%s\"", str))); > > result->tvi = StringToDateADT(tvi_char); > result->tvi = StringToDateADT(tvf_char); > > result = (Periodo *) palloc(sizeof(Periodo)); > > if (result->tvi > result->tvf) > ereport(ERROR, > (errcode(ERRCODE_INVALID_TEXT_REPRESENTATION), > errmsg("Initial date (TVi) must be smaller than final date > (TVf)"))); > > PG_RETURN_POINTER(result); > } > > Please help me! > > Thanks in advance! Hope this helps. -- My love, he's mad, and my love, he's fleet, And a wild young wood-thing bore him! The ways are fair to his roaming feet, And the skies are sunlit for him. As sharply sweet to my heart he seems As the fragrance of acacia.
