-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Anyone working on the libpq interface to prepared statements? We could really use that for DBD::Pg. Alternatively, if someone knows a trick to prepare an INSERT statement without knowing the data types, that would be neat too. For example: CREATE TABLE foobar(a INTEGER); These don't work: PREPARE st(text) AS INSERT INTO foobar(a) VALUES ($1); PREPARE st(unknown) AS INSERT INTO foobar(a) VALUES ($1); PREPARE st(unknown) AS INSERT INTO foobar(a) VALUES ($1::unknown); (Yes, I know st(int) works, but DBD::Pg is not going to become a SQL parser, that's the backend's job, so we need a way to force unknown, or a way to return the data types back to us when we prepare a statement. The latter is on the 8.0 todo list, but have not seen any progress onit) - -- Greg Sabino Mullane [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP Key: 0x14964AC8 200409132114 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iD8DBQFBRkYqvJuQZxSWSsgRAnYoAKDicZ62t5N2kLNx7zDJRd3t9J7YTgCg7uVE xugi93g3Av2Smm8TkMz8MCk= =IwEf -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
