I agree with you Chris.
I have also coded, although not yet submitted, some patches to the convert
logic. I am also primarily interested in dblib - I want to accurately
emulate the behaviour of Sybase dblib dbconvert().

Incidentally the Sybase manual pages I worked off for dbconvert support
destlen parameters of -1 (null terminated, blank trimmed) and -2 (null
terminated, not blank trimmed )...no mention of destlen 0...

There is an issue here in that convert logic is coded in the TDS layer.
change it here and you presumably change it for ctlib/odbc etc. as well as
dblib.

I think we need some clarification from Brian...
