Обсуждение: ODBC problem with decimal separator
Hello,
we are upgrading psqlODBC from version 9 to 15 following the upgrade of the postgres database from version 11 to 15.
The application using psqlODBC is an old legacy application written in .NET Framework and we are facing a problem with the decimal separator.
The application is expecting the separator to be . (dot) and everything is working well, even if the OS locale have , (comma) as separator. The application then needs to open a browser to visualize a PDF file and from that moment on every numeric value returned from the ODBC driver will have comma as decimal separator which is misinterpreted from the application, showing mangled results.
My guess is that the Adobe library used to open the PDF is calling setlocale() to set the decimal separator equal to the OS locale (comma) and this is in turn propagated to the ODBC driver. Before the invocation, the decimal separator is undefined and set to the default locale (dot).
Does anyone know if there’s a way to instruct the driver to not apply the locale setting or have experienced something similar?
Regards,
