[Devel] Re: unixodbc trim padding result

[Daniel-Constantin Mierla]

Hello,

I am not sure that we have to integrate this in the database drivers, 
there are other types in database which do not pad with spaces 
(varchar). Space is not a forbidden character in all fields of SIP 
messages, although it may make no sense to have spaces at the end of a 
text, it is not something that must not exist.

Does your patch strip only the padding chars, or it applies to all 
column types?

Cheers,
Danie
