I've got some code that works fine with Sybase/db-lib but exhibits  
the following problem when running with freetds version 0.64:

I execute a stored procedure using the following calls:

        dbrpcinit()
        dbrpcparam() ...
        dbrpcsend()
        dbsqlok()
        dbresults(dbproc)

The stored procedure does an update then executes the following code  
to return a single row/column to the caller

        if @@rowcount = 1
                select 1
        else
                select 0

The application fails when it attempts to do a dbbind(). Further  
investigation revealed that dbnumcols() is returning 0 indicating  
that the select hasn't been performed. I put some debug output in the  
stored procedure and the interesting thing I noticed is that dbsqlok 
() has returned *before* all the debug output from the stored  
procedure has been displayed. Its as if the "update" has been  
performed, sqldbok() returns but because the select hasn't been  
executed there is no data to return.

Has anybody else had this problem? I'm assuming dbsqlok() waits until  
the stored procedure has completed but in my case it looks as if it  
hasn't.

I checked against the Sybase build and the stored procedure in both  
cases is being executed with exactly the same parameters being passed  
in.
