Bug, or can the code be deleted/commented? (SQLChar)

[Kristian Waagan]

Hello,

While fiddling around in the source code, I came across the following 
piece of code in iapi.types.SQLChar:

        protected void copyState(SQLChar other) {

                this.value = other.value;
                this.rawData = other.rawData;
                this.rawLength = other.rawLength;
                this.cKey = other.cKey;
                this.stream = other.stream;
                this.intArray = intArray;
                this.intLength = intLength;
                this.localeFinder = localeFinder;
        }


Note that the three last assignments are assignments to self.
Is this a bug, or is it intentional?

If it is intentional, my opinion is that the lines should be deleted and 
replaced by a comment (or at least commented out and be accompanied by a 
suitable text comment).



thanks,
