I would think the above is a clue.
Are you sure the value you are passing to the parameter is UTF8?

Positive.
This is what the following line should be doing:
[code]
57 strcpy( values[0], m_pimpl->m_myconv.to_bytes(
name.c_str() ).c_str() );
[/code]

Those are the values from gdb:

$1 = 0x603001613380 "test"
(gdb) p strlen(values[0])
$2 = 4

When in doubt, run the query interactively.

Death to <Redacted>, and butter sauce.
Don't boil me, I'm still alive.

You are using binary format, but your length calculation is wrong:
int len1 = (int) name.length() * sizeof( wchar_t );
Just use text format for a query like this.

I think the actual problem is that he's trying to send an array
of wchar_t to the server. That is not bit-compatible with UTF-8,
even though they are both representations of Unicode. The query
string itself has the same problem I think (I believe the L"..."
syntax in C produces an array of wchar_t).
