[unixODBC-dev] SQLGetFunctions() call with null SupportedPtr dumps core

[G, Hemanth Kumar]

Hi

     I am trying to get Teradata driver work with unixODBC driver
manager. Compiled and linked the driver with unixODBC and able to
connect to the Database successfully.
With many of our testcases passing, I observe some of them dumping core.

To mention few --->

______________________________________________________________________

SQLGetFunctions() call with a null SupportedPtr aborts, giving core
dump.

rc = SQLGetFunctions(hdbc, SQL_API_SQLCONNECT, NULL);

Trace from gdb
----------------------
#0  0x77f63a72 in __check_for_function (connection=0x403810,
function_id=7,
    supported=0x0) at SQLConnect.c:2677
2677            *supported = SQL_FALSE;
(gdb) where

SQLGetInfo() call with a null InfoValuePtr aborts with a core dump.

rc = SQLGetInfo(hdbc, SQL_DRIVER_HSTMT, NULL, 300, &dblen);

I would suggest, a check is made to verify if the pointers are NULL,
before assigning them or doing any arithmetic with them.

Any other suggestions or help on this is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Hemanth.
