[Firebird-devel] Return type of DECRYPT
According the Firebird 4.0 Release Notes, the return type of the DECRYPT and ENCRYPT functions is: """ Functions return BLOB when the first argument is blob and varbinary for all text types. """ However the return type of DECRYPT is VARCHAR CHARACTER SET NONE if the input is a non-BLOB type, is that intentional, or is this a bug?
