Description: Using a prepared query, some aggregate functions (tested with SUM and AVG so far) return their results in the wrong byte order when fetched, while on big endian hardware. This sounds very similar to bug 3578. I've confirmed the attached test plan returns incorrect values on the following platforms: AIX 5.2 Solaris 8 (sparc) (x86 works fine since its a lowhigh machine) Mac OS X (Darwin Kernel Version 6.8) How to repeat: MYSQL_STMT *stmt; MYSQL_BIND bind_array[3]; MYSQL *mysql = NULL; int id; /* input and output data of 'id' column */ const char *stmt_text; int rc; /* to save return value of API calls */ int i; /* loop counter */ setup_connection(); stmt= mysql_stmt_init(mysql); stmt_text= "INSERT INTO t1 (id) VALUES (?)"; mysql_stmt_prepare(stmt, stmt_text, strlen(stmt_text)); memset(bind_array, 0, sizeof(bind_array)); bind_array[0].buffer_type= MYSQL_TYPE_LONG; bind_array[0].buffer= (char*) &id; mysql_stmt_bind_param(stmt, bind_array); for (id= 1; id <= 3; ++id) mysql_stmt_execute(stmt); stmt_text= "select sum(id) from t1"; mysql_stmt_prepare(stmt, stmt_text, strlen(stmt_text)); mysql_stmt_execute(stmt); mysql_stmt_bind_result(stmt, bind_array); while ((rc= mysql_stmt_fetch(stmt)) == 0) { printf("result = %d\n", id); } mysql_stmt_close(stmt); cleanup(); return 0;
