Think of the Type VARCHAR. The length member of the FIELD tells you the maximum, the row gives you the string in the actual length. So far I know the Strings in the ROW are zero-terminated so you can use it with ease and the regular C-character-functions. http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/mysql_fetch_row.html Regards Bernhard ----- Original Message ----- From: "Travis McLeskey" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, February 25, 2003 10:04 PM Subject: Simple C API question > > Question: Can I reliably interpret 'length' as the length in bytes of the > corresponding "byte string" in the MYSQL_ROW, and is there a usual way to > extract these data into regular C datatypes? > --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
