>Description:
There is a bug (or undocumented feature?) in libmysqlclient - if
function "strend()" is defined in client code, client will fail
to connect to database with "MySQL client run out of memory"
message.
>How-To-Repeat:
#include <mysql/mysql.h>
#include <stdio.h>
void strend(){} /* Little nifty bug :-) */
int main()
{
MYSQL mysql;
if (mysql_init(&mysql)==NULL) return 1;
if (!mysql_real_connect(&mysql,"localhost","root","","mysql",0,NULL,0)) {
fprintf(stderr, "Failed to connect: %s\n",mysql_error(&mysql));
return 2;
}
return 0;
}
>Fix:
Don't know, maybe wrong external declaration...
