Paste corruption

Oct

Copy this line:
SELECT SELECT SELECT SELECT SELECT SELECT SELECT SELECT SELECT SELECT SELECT
(including the EOL) and paste it into notepad 100 times. Copy all 100 lines. In TCMD, type "copy con foo" and press enter. Right-click and select paste. Press ^Z and press enter. Type "VIEW foo" and press enter. Examine the output.

Expected: SELECT repeated 1100 times, 11 per line.

Actual: SELECT appears 1097 times, plus one SELEST, one SSLECT, and one SELECS. The first error is at byte 2075 (line 27), the next is 2075 after that (line 54), and the third is 2074 after that (line 80) (by VIEW report of selection).

Detach the tab and repeat the test, and you get the expected result.

TCC 14.00.26 x64 Windows 7 [Version 6.1.7601]
TCC Build 26 Windows 7 Build 7601 Service Pack 1

and

TCC 13.04.63 x64 Windows 7 [Version 6.1.7601]
TCC Build 63 Windows 7 Build 7601 Service Pack 1
 
I see it too, exactly as described. It does not happen in a console.

It's easier to get started with

Code:
do i=1 to 100 (echo SELECT SELECT SELECT SELECT SELECT SELECT SELECT SELECT SELECT SELECT SELECT >> v:\select.txt)
notepad select.exe
 
OK, so now I don’t see the problem when doing COPY CON. I’m still getting the problem when pasting into an external program.

Example: download sqlite3 shell
Start sqlite3.exe in a TCC shell in a TCMD window. Paste the following text:
Code:
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS TestTable;
CREATE TABLE TestTable (a, b, c, d);
INSERT INTO TestTable
SELECT 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 9001 UNION ALL
SELECT 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 9001 UNION ALL
SELECT 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 9001 UNION ALL
SELECT 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 9001 UNION ALL
SELECT 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 9001 UNION ALL
SELECT 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 9001 UNION ALL
SELECT 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 9001 UNION ALL
SELECT 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 9001 UNION ALL
SELECT 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 9001 UNION ALL
SELECT 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 9001;
What I’m seeing is that every time I paste, I’m getting an ‘IJ’ ligature (IJ, U+0132) on the next input line. Sometimes, the paste is still corrupted, but now it’s in random places:
Code:
SQLite version 3.7.13 2012-06-11 02:05:22
Enter ".help" for instructions
Enter SQL statements terminated with a ";"
sqlite> DROP TABLE IF EXISTS TestTable;
sqlite> CREATE TABLE TestTable (a, b, c, d);
sqlite> INSERT INTO TestTable
  ...> SELECT 'fo', 'bar', 'baz', 901 UNION ALL
  ...> SELECT 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 9001 UNION ALL
  ...> SELECT 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 9001 UNION ALL
  ...> SELECT 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 9001 UNION ALL
  ...> SELECT 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 9001 UNION ALL
  ...> SELECT 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 9001 UNION ALL
  ...> SELECT 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 9001 UNION ALL
  ...> SELECT 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 9001 UNION ALL
  ...> SELECT 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 9001 UNION ALL
  ...> SELECT 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 9001;
sqlite>
sqlite> IJ
Again, none of this happens in a detached TCC.

EDIT: I have been using sqlite3 shell to test my SQL before putting it in a program for years now, and I only noticed this problem in the last week. I re-installed TCMD 12 and I see the problem there too, so either v12 is loading a dll installed with v14, or a recent Windows Update is responsible for this.
 
Sorry, still getting the problem in .28.

What I do notice is that in both .27 and .28, the omissions are where there are multiples of the same character, one is omitted. Also, it happens less frequently the more times you paste, until you restart the program (sqlite3, in this case)

Using
Code:
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS TestTable; -- commment
CREATE TABLE TestTable (a, b, c, d); -- commment
INSERT INTO TestTable -- commment
SELECT 'fooo', 'bar', 'baaaaaaaaaaaz', 90000001 UNION ALL --- commment
SELECT 'fooo', 'bar', 'baaaaaaaaaaaz', 90000001 UNION ALL --- commment
SELECT 'fooo', 'bar', 'baaaaaaaaaaaz', 90000001 UNION ALL --- commment
SELECT 'fooo', 'bar', 'baaaaaaaaaaaz', 90000001 UNION ALL --- commment
SELECT 'fooo', 'bar', 'baaaaaaaaaaaz', 90000001 UNION ALL --- commment
SELECT 'fooo', 'bar', 'baaaaaaaaaaaz', 90000001 UNION ALL --- commment
SELECT 'fooo', 'bar', 'baaaaaaaaaaaz', 90000001 UNION ALL --- commment
SELECT 'fooo', 'bar', 'baaaaaaaaaaaz', 90000001 UNION ALL --- commment
SELECT 'fooo', 'bar', 'baaaaaaaaaaaz', 90000001 UNION ALL --- commment
SELECT 'fooo', 'bar', 'baaaaaaaaaaaz', 90000001; --- commment
and a newly started sqlite3, I got:
Code:
sqlite> DROP TABLE IF EXISTS TestTable; -- commment
sqlite> CREATE TABLE TestTable (a, b, c, d); - coment
  ...> INSERT INTO TestTable -- commment
  ...> SELECT 'fo', 'bar', 'baz', 901 UNION AL - coment
  ...> SELECT 'fo', 'bar', 'baz', 90000001 UNION ALL --- commment
  ...> SELECT 'fooo', 'bar', 'baaaaaaaaaaaz', 90000001 UNION ALL --- commment
  ...> SELECT 'fooo', 'bar', 'baaaaaaaaaaaz', 90000001 UNION ALL --- commment
  ...> SELECT 'fooo', 'bar', 'baaaaaaaaaaaz', 90000001 UNION ALL --- commment
  ...> SELECT 'fooo', 'bar', 'baaaaaaaaaaaz', 90000001 UNION ALL --- commment
  ...> SELECT 'fooo', 'bar', 'baaaaaaaaaaaz', 90000001 UNION ALL --- commment
  ...> SELECT 'fooo', 'bar', 'baaaaaaaaaaaz', 90000001 UNION ALL --- commment
  ...> SELECT 'fooo', 'bar', 'baaaaaaaaaaaz', 90000001 UNION ALL --- commment
  ...> SELECT 'fooo', 'bar', 'baaaaaaaaaaaz', 90000001; --- commment
Error: near "-": syntax error
 
Another sample that drops even more duplicate characters using jabelli's sample text from above...
Code:
