Hi,
I submitted this at pgFoundry...not sure which is the correct place.
I have the following in a postgres 8.3 DB:
Create Table test(f uuid);
insert into test values('e964684f-87fe-49d9-9b87-137cc83165ea');
I have the following VB.Net 2005 code that connects to this DB (using
either ANSI or UNICODE driver); full connection
string below. I use a DataAdapter as follows:
Dim c As New ODBC.ODBCConnection(My.Settings.ConnectionString)
Dim DA As New Odbc.OdbcDataAdapter("select f::text, f from test", c)
Dim Tbl As New DataTable
DA.Fill(zTbl)
When I inspect the values, they differ:
?tbl.Rows(0).Item(0).ToString
"e964684f-87fe-49d9-9b87-137cc83165ea"
?tbl.Rows(0).Item(1).ToString
"00390065-0036-0034-3600-380034006600"
The original can be stored using the ODBC driver, it just seems to have
trouble retrieving it.
Running under XP SP3, 32 bit talking to a 32 bit linux server.
Full connection string:
