GTD 6.3 and SqlBase 9: any issues ?

Post by Charlie » 04 Aug 2021, 17:33

Although GTD 6.3 is not certified to work with SqlBase 9, I wonder if they do function happily together.

Does anybody know? So far, it seems fine just selecting data (except for images stored in the database ... not sure if that is a database compatibility issue, or something wrong with the GTD 6.3 code migrated for GTD 4.1)

Thank-you in advance, and best regards !

.
SQLBase 9 was old before I was born. So cant really comment on the TD6.3 v SB9 combination.
Can vouch for SB 11.7 and 12.2 against TD6.3

However for your Image problem, try "SqlSetLongBindDatatype( nBindVariableNumber, nDatatype )"
(if Column Datatype is Long Varchar).
Without SqlSetLongBindDatatype, TD converts the data to Unicode.
Try SqlSetLongBindDatatype before SQLFetchNext, but after the SqlExecute ( the order you use it is important )

Hi,

Long, long time ago I had the same combination on one of my clients installations, as they were not willing to upgrade to a newer SQLBase, and the same application worked Ok with multiple versions of SQLBase, v9.x, v11.x and v12.x.

Steve, thank-you so much(!!!) for that bit of info (re SqlSetLongBindDatatype).)

GTD 6.3 app is loading up images A-1.
