As per documentation: "The debug versions of these functions first fill the buffer with 0xFD. To disable this behavior, use _CrtSetDebugFillThreshold." This is to make buffer overruns easier to spot under debugger. If you see a variable unexpectedly overwritten with 0xFD pattern, chances are high you are passing incorrect buffer length to strcpy_s or similar, and the buffer happens to be located in memory right before that varible. -- Igor Tandetnik ___ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
Re: [sqlite] sqlite3_column_text() returning partial results
I used the strcpy_s function from Microsoft, the so called safe version that includes a char count. I used it under the Studio debugger. Set a buffer of 200 chars to zero, set the char count to 20 in strcpy_s, and the debugger wrote in the top 180!! I freaked, didn't see that as safe at all!

That's what the 2010 in the name of the product means: displayed strings are limited to that many characters (Studio is an acronym meaning Stop Displaying Under Debugger If Over [2010]). You were lucky to get a few more, but that is undocumented behaviour. If you upgrade next year though you should be able to display a couple more characters.

There it is, when I printed this value out to a txt file everything was there. Apparently there is some sort of character limit when displaying strings in debug mode in Visual Studio 2010, news to me...

Re: [sqlite] sqlite3_column_text() returning partial results
What does strlen() tell you on the XML before you put it in the table? Can you boil all this down to one record in a table, and some code so we can all see what's going on? Do a .dump of the table and post the code. See if you can reproduce it in a simple example. Michael D.

I have a line of code that executes that line: const unsigned char * temp2 = sqlite3_column_text(state, 0); This queries the database and after the call is complete I pass this value to another function.

What's in p[2030], p[2031] and so on (where p is a pointer obtained from sqlite3_column_text)? Are you examining the string immediately after calling sqlite3_column_text?
