The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 2266 Logged by: Gerhard Lutz Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PostgreSQL version: 8.1.3 Operating system: Windows XP SP2 Description: SQL_ATTR_CONNECTION_DEAD always returns SQL_CD_TRUE Details:
I want to upgrade my PostgreSQL server from 8.0.4 to 8.1.3. My C++ application connects to the database via ODBC (ODBC driver: PostgreSQL Unicode). In 8.0.4 I was able to check after an error if the database connection get lost. ::SQLGetConnectAttr(g_hDBConnection, SQL_ATTR_CONNECTION_DEAD, &uConnectionDead, 0, &nLen); returned SQL_CD_TRUE or SQL_CD_FALSE. In 8.1.3 this function always returns SQL_CD_TRUE, even when the database connection is still available. Has this to do with ODBC 3.5 or is it a bug in the ODBC driver? ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
