I cannot reproduce this.
I used the followind program that is based on your samples:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main(int argc, char** argv) {
EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;
char stmt[100], _thisDbConn[] = "mydb";
int fnull, recCount;
EXEC SQL END DECLARE SECTION;
const char table[] = "sometable", where[] = "TRUE";
EXEC SQL WHENEVER SQLWARNING SQLPRINT;
EXEC SQL WHENEVER SQLERROR SQLPRINT;
EXEC SQL CONNECT TO "unix:postgresql://localhost:1237/test" AS :_thisDbConn;
snprintf( stmt, 3000, "SELECT count(*) FROM %s WHERE %s", table, where );
EXEC SQL AT :_thisDbConn PREPARE cntstmt FROM :stmt;
EXEC SQL AT :_thisDbConn EXECUTE cntstmt INTO :recCount :fnull;
EXEC SQL DEALLOCATE PREPARE cntstmt;
EXEC SQL DISCONNECT :_thisDbConn;
printf("Ergebnis: %d\n", recCount);
return 0;
}
I prepared and compiled it on both 8.4.0 and 8.3.5 and ran both programs
against both versions (all 4 combinations).
There were no errors or warnings, and the correct result was returned.
Yours,
