Oooooops, sorry, type mismatch error...

The MySQL api does not free ressources automatically, so if > you have the crash on two different system, I would think the bug > comes from your code. Well, in fact you are right... I took a look again to the mysql_store_result() and mysql_use_result() and that lighted my brain! It was a logic error... inside the while I was making a free_result() every loop that made a fetch_row(), and not once per query, that was the first thing... as you said in the last message, I did not check for NULL return to perform the free() and because of that was the random crash (sometimes NULL, sometimes not)... The problem was not mysql nor what I was thinking, but your last mail made me to discover the real problem :D > nop, you MYSQL_RES, and it's value. did you set to NULL after freeing > it ? that would help. well, I had a member function void MYCLASS::FreeResult (void) { mysql_free_result(sql_result); } and now modified it this way void MYCLASS::FreeResult (void) { if (sql_result) { mysql_free_result(sql_result); sql_result = NULL; } } > again, I doubt it's a bug in the api, I use various 4.0.x, 4.1.x daily Well, as I said, it was a double logic error, I should not anymore copy/paste from other programs trusting that they do what I remember they do, it will be better to start always from zero the code, even for test only purposes... Thanks for your patience and help during this time... your ideas were very useful...
