Is this really all that hard? I'm thinking it could be implemented by using the real C sprintf underneath, passing one % specifier and its corresponding parameter at a time, coerced to whatever the conversion specifier specifies. The only thing that breaks this idea is the $n positional specifiers, I think. -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
