Problems with Pro*C and the double datatype

Question

Hi!
I'm working with Pro*C 8.1.7 on HPUX 11.0, but I've a problem
with the datatype double.
On runtime, I got a Bus Error (core dumped) when try assign a
double bind_variable (Pro*C) with a double variable (ANSI_C)
For example:
typedef struct xxxx
float item_ANSI_C;
double variable_ANSI_C;
} xxxx;
void procedure_name()
EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;
xxxx *POINTER;
double double_bind_variable_PRO*C;
EXEC SQL END DECLARE SECTION;
EXEC SQL WHENEVER SQLERROR DO (...);
for (i = 0; ; i++)
EXEC SQL WHENEVER NOT FOUND DO break;
EXEC SQL FETCH cursor INTO (...),
:double_bind_variable_PRO*C,
POINTER.item_ANSI_C = other_bind_variable_PRO*C;
(***)POINTER[i].variable_ANSI_C = double_bind_variable_PRO*C;
(***): In this point the program throw BusError(core dumped).
However, the float datatype does not.
------- End Example -------------
Somebody have any solution for this problem? Please.
Thanks, in advance.
Alex.

Hi Franz,
Though it's a bit late, I'll leave this trace for those who follow.
IRecordset also has Fields->Item.
What might work is:
IField * field;
field = rec->Fields->Item(0);
field->get_Value(0); (or something similar for your environment).                
I couldn't find any documentation either.
The C++ examples are not overwhelming, are they?
Worse, they are not supported. Otherwise SBO-support is very hilfsbereit.
