What about binding variables ala oracle's ociparse -> ocibindbyname -> ociexecute -> ocifetch ? I know you can do most of it via SQL (PREPARE/EXECUTE) but you can't do 'RETURN x INTO :x' as it stands. This would also get around the problem of getting values from newly inserted rows (eg PKs) without resorting to OIDs. Not entirely a FE/BE issue... but worth considering in any redesign.This is an attempt to lay out a road map for updating the frontend/backend protocol in 7.4. I don't at this point want to get into details on any one of the TODO items, just get consensus that this is the set of tasks to be tackled. Are there any areas that I've missed (that require protocol changes)?
