I have declared in SQL-Pro*C a VARCHAR variable:
VARCHAR SRC[30];
developped by the precompiler as:
struct {unsigned short int len;unsigned char* arr;} SRC;
and want to copy it in a char*:
strncpy(dest,SRC.arr,SRC.len);
Strncpy copies 'len' characters of SRC in dest, but does not copy a '\0'
at the end.
So I must add :
dest[SRC.len]='\0';
but Is there a better way to do it, in one line for exemple:
recopy(dest, SRC) ???
If I try to define :
struct OracleVARCHARtype {unsigned short int len;unsigned char* arr;};
and:
void recopy(char* dest, OracleVARCHARtype src)
{
strncpy(dest, src.arr,src.len);
dest[src.len]='\0';
}
I have many syntax errors of the C++ compiler.
(parameter not defined const, unsigned char* instead of char*, etc...)
Does somebody has a solution ?
