IV10780: PASS 64BIT VALUES TO THE 64BIT JDBC-ODBC BRIDGE DRIVER INTERFACE

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The IBM Java 5 on Windows 64 JDBC-ODBC uses 32 bit values for:
  
      -SQLBindCol, the (i) maximum length of parameter buffer (ii)
  pointer to the parameter?s length (arguments 5 and 6)
  
      -SQLBindParameter, the (i) maximum length of parameter
  buffer (ii) pointer to parameter?s length and in some cases
  (iii) precision (arguments 9, 10 and 6.
  
      -SQLColAttributes, the (i) pointer for integer value for
  descriptor (argument 7)
  
      -SQLDescribeParam, the (i) precision (argument 4) is 32 bit
  
      -SQLFetchScroll, the (i) offset (argument 3SQLGetData, the
  (i) maximum length of data (ii) pointer to data length
  (arguments 5 and 6)
  
  Whereas the Oracle Java 5 and 6, and IBM Java 6 on Windows 64
  use 64 bit values.
  
  The Microsoft API specification says they have to be 64 bits.
  
  Microsoft
  http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms714562%28v=vs.85%29.as
  px and IBM
  (http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/dzichelp/v2r2/index.js
  p) define the arguments listed above as 64 bit.
  
  As IBM JDK 5 on Windows 64 platform uses 32 bit values, it can
  result in incorrect values as reported in APAR IZ88860.
  

Local fix

• N/A
  

Problem summary

• The ODBC API (for example SQLBindCol()) has changed for some of
  the parameters from 32 to 64 bits. In accordance with that
  specification change, Oracle and IBM JDK has to modify their
  parameter definition to 64 bit.
  

Problem conclusion

• This defect will be fixed in:
  5.0.0 SR13
  .
  JDK is modified to pass 64 bit values to 64-bit JDBC-ODBC bridg
  interface.
  .
  To obtain the fix:
  Install build 20110119 or later
  

Temporary fix
