Teradata 15.00: Errors in mapping of "struct SLOB_data_struct *using_SLOB_data_struct;" to Python struct for dbcarea.py #1

Possible reasons:

  1. type define was done with two lines: " char fill_20[1]; struct SLOB_data_struct *using_SLOB_data_struct; char fill_21[376];"
  2. the mapping are not working for 'struct' type of C language.

Looks like the bteq api has changed. If you feel so inclined you could modifying the dwhwrapper code to ignore that structure or using teradata utils version 13

I ran into some similar issues with some data types in TD 14.0 that were not supported. I wound up downloading the teradata documents regarding supported types and added them as new types to the dwhwrapper code. I should do that an update for the current release of TD. Are we able to merge changes into the source tree here and make an update available to the community?
