We were running mysql 3.22.30 on an Tru 64 Alpha server OSF 4.0F. We
recently upgraded to mysql 3.23.58 on the same server.
In the code fragment below, there is a memory leak at line 8 because
mysql_fetch_lenghts returns an array of unsigned long integers representing
the size of each column. So, has the retun value of mysql_fetch_lengths()
been the same for mysql 3.22.30 and 3.23.58?
Thank you ,
