Re: [Bug-glpk] Assertion failed: str2num(buf, &num) == 0 Error detected in file ..\src\glpsql.c at line 900

Hello Xypron,

Thanks for this tip on create and querying tables that works with
current version of SQL tables.

However, Andrew mentioned that NULL should mean missing data, like '.'
in the data
section, neither 0 nor error.

Here are examples of table with missing data '.' (aka default to 0)

#Ven_UpSliceFac[o,g,gg]
param Ven_UpSliceFac default 0 :=
  [2.5mm, *, *] (tr):  MMX:=
        MMX_B   0.50
        MMX_H   0.50
  [3.0mm, *, *] (tr):   MMX:=
        MMX_B   0.50
        MMX_H   0.50;

param Ven_D_Fac default 0 :=
  [2.5mm, *, *]: A B Cp C D MMX:=
        A 1 -1 . . . .
        B . 1 -1 . . .
        Cp . . 1 -1 . .
        C  . . . 1 -1 .
        D  . . . . 1 -1
  [3.0mm, *, *] : A B Cp C D MMX:=
        A 1 -1 . . . .
        B . 1 -1 . . .
        Cp . . 1 -1 . .
        C  . . . 1 -1 .
        D  . . . . 1 -1;

Most of the data are handcoded in the spreadsheet for Access, Excel,
xBase (dbf) and CSV table. And most of the time, the database and data
are created by other people not the modeler, as the case of the
Otago.mdb that I sent to you.

 I think if the glpsql.c and  glpmpl06.c would have proper patch then
the still nagging bug.

Error in xBase driver in str2num(buf, &num) == 0

Andrew, do you have any suggestion how to patch this bug properly?

Thanks.
