BTW, in Firebird 3 role of fb_shutdown is even more important as it
uses plugin
architecture and many code layers are at separate DLL's now.
I was just experimenting with Jaybird, and I noticed an odd
inconsistency with fb_shutdown_callback on Windows. For other
callbacks in fbclient (ie the event callback), I must define the
callback using StdCall calling conventions.
Hmm...
If I don't, things break. For the shutdown callback, using the
'normal' JNA calling convention (which I assume is cdecl) just works.
In ibase.h all callback prototypes are declared not using ISC_EXPORT
macro (this macro
expands into __stdcall). So, i see no inconsistency there: (almost) all
ISC API
functions declared using ISC_EXPORT and all callbacks are without
ISC_EXPORT.
However with fb_shutdown_callback, if I do apply the StdCall
convention, then the callback is invoked, but the application ends
with error 0xC0000409 ('unknown exception').
As expected.
I haven't (yet) defined the method fb_shutdown_callback to explicitly
accept the StdCall callback (contrary to isc_queue_events), but I'm
surprised that it actually works without changing the calling
convention. Is this something specific to the shutdown callback?
So far i see no specific here.
I don't think I'll actually need the callback, but I'll make some
further tests to see what happens if I have the definition the same to
the event callback.
