OD Column Definition DefaultValue()

[butwhy42]

I've been trying to read OD definitions and displaying it's contents (C++, Map SDK 2012). So far it works just fine, however getting default values of a column has proven to be a pain. Apparently, if column value isn't actully set, DefaultValue() returns the value of a previous column:

     Column0: 'SomeValue'

     Column1: ''

Calling DefaultValue() returns SomeValue in both cases, when it obviously shoudn't. Also, IsValid() returns true in both cases and the standard _adeattachdata command displays fields correctly. I'm guessing it's an API bug, as there's not a whole lot of room for mistakes here, but anything's possible.

Relevant code:

AcMapODTable * table;
// fetch the table pointer
AcMapODTableDefinition t_def(table->Definition());
for(int i = 0; i < t_def.Count(); ++i)
{
	AcMapODColumnDefinition c_def;
	t_def.GetColumn(c_def, i);
	if(!c_def.IsValid())
	{
		acutPrintf(_T("ERROR: invalid column definition.\n"));
		continue;
	}
	AcMapValue val(c_def.DefaultValue());
	switch(val.Type())
	{
		case AcMap::kCharacter:
			acutPrintf(_T("%s\n"), static_cast<const ACHAR *>(val));
			break;
		case AcMap::kInteger:
			acutPrintf(_T("%i\n"), static_cast<int>(val));
			break;
		case AcMap::kPoint:
			{
				AcGePoint3d & p(static_cast<AcGePoint3d>(val));
				acutPrintf(_T("%lf,%lf,%lf\n"), p.x, p.y, p.z);
			}
			break;
		case AcMap::kReal:
			acutPrintf(_T("%lf\n"), static_cast<double>(val));
			break;
		default:
			acutPrintf(_T("ERROR: unknown type.\n"));
			break;
	}
}
