 16 May 2017, Konstantin Olchanski, Bug Report, problem with odb strings and db_get_record()
|
Suddenly the mhttpd odb inline editor is truncating the odb string entries to the actual length of the
stored string value, this causes db_get_record() explode with "structure mismatch" errors. (Not my
fault, You Honor! Honest!). For example, I see these errors from al_check() after changing

The mess with db_get_record() and db_open_record() is even deeper than I thought. There are several anomalies.

Done to all in-tree programs, except for mana.c (not using it), sequencer.cxx (cannot test it) and a few places where watching a TID_INT.

I guess this might be related to the changes in the last elog conversation; but
I'll break it out as a separate problem.

To follow up; with some help from Konstantin and Stefan, we realized that this

There is a small bug in the mfe.c initialization for the EQ_POLLED mode. There
is a routine where the number of polls fitting in eq_info->period is counted:
