Hi there,

I'm moving some code to Jul2021, and I got a bit stuck on this.

The issue can be simplified  to this (make a copy and, append another bat, and make the result read-only):

bn = COLcopy(b, b->ttype, true, TRANSIENT);
ret = BATappend(bn,u, s, force ? *force : false);
bn = BATsetaccess(bn, BAT_READ);

The only superficial difference from Oct2020 is that now BATaccess returns the modified bat instead of a gdk_return.

The issue I see is that BATsetaccess() returns NULL, due to m1 == STORE_INVALID.

Am I using this wrong? Any help is appreciated.

Cheers, Roberto
