Hi btrievians!

when accessing a bigint-field in a 8.6 PSQL-database with an PDAC 9.x
-application, one gets an overflow-error, if the field contains values
greater than maxlongint. (with PSQL 9 the error does not occur).
The problme seem to be known to Pervasive:

<http://ww1.pervasive.com/developerzone/access_methods/Readme_pdac.htm>

....
Issues Addressed Since Last Release
In addition to the new functionality, the following issues have been
corrected in this release.
[...]
53598 PDAC should not work for the changed datatypes such as Bigint,
UBingint SDKs of PDAC (that use an 8 byte integer) prior to Pervasive
PSQL v9 SP2.
....

Any idea, how to overcome this without upgrading to PSQL 9.x?


Second question:

Is there a possibility to install PDAC 8.x und 9.x simultanoulsly in
Delphi 6?

Are there PDAC sources available?
