Hi,
Is sqlbuft a Oracle routine or your code?

If its yours and the second parameter is never
changed, altering the signature to be sqlbuft(void**, const char*) will remove the warnings.

The compiler is complaining because you are passing
a literal that cannot be modified to a function that
could in theory try to alter it.

Regards

Pete
