Hi all; we want to insert a single backslash into a bytea column (running postgres v 8.3.5)
this works to insert 2 backslashes (but we only want one): insert into test_bytea_tab (id, bytea_test_col) values(999999, '\\\\testdata'::bytea) However none of these work: insert into test_bytea_tab (id, bytea_test_col) values(999999, '\\testdata'::bytea) insert into test_bytea_tab (id, bytea_test_col) values(999999, E'\\testdata'::bytea) FWIW backslash_quote is set to 'safe_encoding' Thoughts?
