Stipe, list,

IMHO consuming DBPoolConns is not a bad thing. After all, that is why the
pool even exist. So consuming and producing sql connections is not so
expensive.

In your patch: Where exactly do you escpape the parameters to the sql
string? I couldnt find that so quick.

In most of the Chimit code, we use something like this:

Octstr *sql = octstr_sql_format("SELECT * from table where pk = '%s'",
PrimaryKey);

The function octstr_sql_format is crafted so that before replacing the value
of PrimaryKey on the place that says %s in the format string, automatically
it is sql-escaped.
This way, you never have to worry about escaping stuff - everything goes
automagically. This a clean and generic solution that generates little
coding effort.

Subject: [PATCH] mysql_real_escape_string() usage in gw/dlr_mysql.c


Hi list,

according to bug #258 we don't use the string character escaping functions
from
mysql client library to ensure the safety of the SQL statements.

Attached is a patch for gw/dlr_mysql.c:dlr_mysql_add() which uses a static
mysql_escaipe() that does this. Please review and vote for commitment. This
should be also extended to the other SQL statements, right?

Actually this is a bit "glitchy", since we have to consume the DBPoolConn*
_before_ passing the strings to the mysql_real_escape_string() routine. It
expects a mysql connection in order to ensure that it gets the right
character
set encoding.

Anyone having a better "way" in doing this? I don't feel it's the "smoothes"
code for it, but it safes at least a sub-sequential consumption of
DBPoolConn's
while doing the string escaping.

Any improvments welcome.

Stipe
