Embarcadero's C++ Builder may optimize out `rc==SQLITE_OK` in this for loop: <https://www.sqlite.org/src/info?name=afe8c2394cf6de2a&ln=676> This leads to an AV in the same line if `pData` is NULL. This test then crashes: <https://www.sqlite.org/src/info?name=4a15fb03b6c7eac6&ln=90-92> The cause may be an over-optimization or compiler bug. It seems related to the fact that the rc variable is not used within the for loop. This similar loop a few lines above uses rc, and `rc==SQLITE_OK` is compiled in: <https://www.sqlite.org/src/info?name=afe8c2394cf6de2a&ln=659> It helps to move the [for loop](https://www.sqlite.org/src/info?name=afe8c2394cf6de2a&ln=675-681) into the [`if( rc==SQLITE_OK )`](https://www.sqlite.org/src/info?name=afe8c2394cf6de2a&ln=668-673) block above. This also removes one `rc==SQLITE_OK` test. Another such test may be avoided if the [test below](https://www.sqlite.org/src/info?name=afe8c2394cf6de2a&ln=683-689) is also moved there. The resulting code looks like this and tests fine: ```C /* Figure out the total size of the current row in tokens. */ if( rc==SQLITE_OK ){ int nTok; rc = pApi->xColumnSize(pFts, -1, &nTok); D = (double)nTok; /* Determine the BM25 score for the current row. */ for(i=0; i<pData->nPhrase; i++){ score += pData->aIDF[i] * ( ( aFreq[i] * (k1 + 1.0) ) / ( aFreq[i] + k1 * (1 - b + b * D / pData->avgdl) ) ); } /* If no error has occurred, return the calculated score. Otherwise, ** throw an SQL exception. */ sqlite3_result_double(pCtx, -1.0 * score); }else{ sqlite3_result_error_code(pCtx, rc); } ```
