Using ProC (on HP-UP 11 with Oracle 8.1.7.4.0), the following code snippet gives me problems:

//----- snippet [[compressed for space purposes]]
int Ftn (sql_context context)
{
EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;
char* db_file_id;
char* db_record_id;
int db_length;
struct sqlca sqlca;
EXEC SQL END DECLARE SECTION;

EXEC SQL CONTEXT USE :context;

db_file_id = "IFORMAT";
db_record_id = "HDR";
EXEC SQL WHENEVER SQLERROR DO ErrorFtn ("ERROR");
EXEC SQL WHENEVER SQLWARNING DO WarningFtn ("WARN");

EXEC SQL
SELECT length INTO :db_length FROM file_record
WHERE fk_fit_id = :db_file_id
AND fk_icr_type = :db_record_id;

if (sqlca.sqlcode ....)
//----- End snippet

Using it as above gives ORA-01036 (illegal variable name/number). Replacing the variables in the WHERE clause with hardcoded values (i.e. fk_fit_id = 'IFORMAT' AND fk_icr_type = 'HDR') gives ORA-01722 (invalid number).

The offending table is defined as
CREATE TABLE FILE_RECORD (
FK_ICR_TYPE VARCHAR2 (3) NOT NULL,
FK_FIT_ID VARCHAR2 (10) NOT NULL,
LENGTH NUMBER (9),
TEXT_VALIDATION CHAR (1),
DESCRIPTION VARCHAR2 (80),
--- constraints, etc. left out.
)

More bizarrely, i can select numeric fields from other tables using very similar code.

What on earth is happening?

BTW, i'm a newbie at ProC so be gentle <<grin>]]

Thanks

BTW, i was advised to use a local contect variable:

EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;
sql_context ctx = context; // Added.
EXEC SQL END DECLARE SECTION;

EXEC SQL CONTEXT :ctx; // Changed.

Made no difference.
