C++ Object Interface with nondefault locale

Hello, everybody! I have found a bug in Informix C++ Object interface 2.5. The following piece of code fails with -1213(Character to numeric conversion failed) error: ... ITStatement stmt(conn); stmt.Prepare("insert into test values (?)"); // create table test(v smallfloat); ITValue* pval; pval = stmt.Param(0); ITConversions* conv; pval->QueryInterface(ITConversionsIID, (void**)&conv); if (!conv->ConvertFrom(1.56)) { cout << "Conversion error\\n"; } conv->Release(); if (!stmt.Exec()) { cout << "Error executing statement\\n"; } pval->Release(); ... It comes up when executing prepared INSERT statements against database on IDS730 which uses nondefault locale, RU_RU.CP1251 in my case, but I also checked this with DE_DE.CP1252. I can explain why C++I produces this error. If it is interesting, let me know. What I would like to know is does Informix plan to support this library in the future or I will have to use some other interfaces, like LIBDMI? Best regards Dima
