Is this on Windows? I'm wondering whether you have 2 different
implementations of std::string by using a different runtime library... or
some such difference. Can you make sure your program is linked with
Multi-threaded Debug dll ( /Mdd ) or Multi-threaded dll ( /Md) as this is
what sdo is built with. This is in the C++ Code Generation setting in VC
Express.

Pete,
I changed the way I'm allocating the string in the function getColumnName:
std::string getColumnName(HSTMT statement, int column) {
SQLCHAR* sqlPtr = 0;
char strAux[1];
SQLSMALLINT length = 0;
SQLColAttributeA(statement, column, SQL_DESC_BASE_COLUMN_NAME, &strAux,
1, (SQLSMALLINT*) &length, NULL);
length++;
sqlPtr = (SQLCHAR*) new char(length);
SQLColAttributeA(statement, column, SQL_DESC_BASE_COLUMN_NAME, sqlPtr,
length, (SQLSMALLINT*) &length, NULL);
std::string ret((char*) sqlPtr);
*delete (char*)sqlPtr; // free up allocated memory*
return ret;
}
And it's now adding the all properties, but when I use a for...
int m;
commonj::sdo::PropertyList list = myType.getProperties();
for (m = 0 ; m < list.size() ; m++) {
std::cout << list[m].getName() << "\n";
}
...to read the properties' names to check if everything was correctly
added,
I always get four random characters now instead of for '=' character.
Something changed, but it's still not working as expected : (
