Executing particular query on Firebird 2.5.2 x64 with Icu 5.2 causes 'string
right truncation exception'
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: CORE-4689
URL: http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/CORE-4689
Project: Firebird Core
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Engine
Affects Versions: 2.5.2 Update 1
Environment: All Windows OS. Custom build of x64 fbembed.dll 2.5.2,
linked to ICU 5.2
Reporter: Hennadii
Priority: Minor
In attach custom build fbembed.dll with all dependencies. Such configuration
used in our environment.
Execution of query SELECT UPPER(_UTF8'ღøღღɑliciøʊs') finishes with error
'string right truncation'.
Error caused by symbol 'ɑ' and different size of that symbol in UTF-8
presentation.
lowercase:
http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/0251/index.htm
UTF-8 (hex) 0xC9 0x91 (c991)
uppercase:
http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/2c6d/index.htm
UTF-8 (hex) 0xE2 0xB1 0xAD (e2b1ad)
As of my further research, problem in file 'Firebird\core\src\jrd\evl.cpp:4060'
Size of memory for the destination (upper) string is the same as for source
(input) string. Copying the result string finishes with error, which causes the
error to be thrown to a client.
The root cause of the issue is, of course, changing ICU version. I think they
had added support for the symbol in the newer version.
