Hello,

this patch ensures independency datetime fields on current datestyle setting. Add new internal datestyle USE_XSD_DATESTYLE. It's almoust same to USE_ISO_DATESTYLE. Differences are for timestamp:

ISO: yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss
XSD: yyyy-mm-ddThh24:mi:ss




Pavel,

I agree that we should have some support for XSD date style so that we can produce validatable XML documents. In fact I had to make just such a transformation on data pulled from Postgres recently in application code to get a document to validate.

However, I have not seen this topic discussed on -hackers. The way we work is that ideas about features should be discussed there before you submit a patch. For one thing, -hackers has a somewhat wider set of readers than -patches. Also, you might well get good ideas about any likely difficulties. Just lobbing a patch for an undiscussed feature over the wall like this is not good practice. You should get signoff on the idea before you start coding, even for fairly small changes.

cheers
