DETAILS: I have been tormented by occasional seg faults that happen when I use sqlite. The good thing is that whatever case causes a crash, I can produce it all the time. Here's what I use to create a crash: I create the following table: CREATE TABLE data (name string, shortname string, stage integer, enc blob); Then I insert one row into it with this code (copied from example when I downloaded data/sqlite): require 'data/sqlite' db=: 'psqlite'conew~ './whatever.sqlite' fin=. 1!:21 < '/tmp/longstring' s=. 1!:1 < fin 1!:22 fin ('name';'name';100;s) apply__db 'insert into data values (?,?,?,?);' The content of /tmp/longstring is 131038 bytes long. Its entire text content can be found here: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=tMBbfcRQ . It's nothing special; just readable text characters. Later, when I attempt to read that one row from sqlite, I get a segfault: strquery__db 'select enc from data;' I've played around a while to determine the actual reason. I'm certain it's not just the length, because I've had success with strings of many megabytes. Specs: I am running 64-bit Ubuntu 11.10 Oneirc - also fails on Ubuntu Maverick j 701 - also fails on j602 the default sqlite 3 library that came with Oneirc - also fails with sqlite 3.7.10 Can anyone help? I haven't seen this sort of problem while looking through the jsoftware archives. --- Sarino Suon ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
