Re: buildfarm logging versus embedded nulls

Well, the good news is that we actually have the data on the server, in
a temp file that will be cleaned up, but hasn't been yet. I have placed
a copy at is entirely on the server. That's more good news.
Now, the log-text field in our build-status-log table is text, so it's
on insertion to the database that it gets truncated. I'm thinking that I
should just escape nulls with a regex ( 's/x00/\0/g' or similar)
before inserting the data.
Anyone got any better ideas?
(BTW, your idea of using logging-collector won't work without
significant changes in the buildfarm client. Nice idea, though.)
cheers
