Hi,
I have a column declared as array of text. I can get a single backslash into
one of the array elements by
update ... set mycol[1] = E'blah \\here'
If I try to update the whole array
update ... set mycol = E'{"blah \\here"}'
the backslash is missing. I can get two backslashes there.
Is there a good way to solve the problem, other than rewriting my update script
to do array updates one element at a time?
Setting
standard_conforming_strings = true
should do the trick.
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/runtime-config-compatible.html#GUC-STANDARD-CONFORMING-STRINGS
In that case you don't need any escaping inside the string literals.
Regards
Thomas
