Hello
> Npgsql supports sending multiple SQL statements in a single packet via the extended protocol. This works fine, but
whenthe second query SELECTs a value modified by the first's UPDATE, I'm getting a result as if the

Looks like the first updating statement is not committed, assuming that the two statements run in different
transactions.

I never used Npgsql so I don't know if there is something missing there. Would you need an explicit commit before
closingMQ0?
Also I am not in clear what "statement=unnamed" means, but it is used twice. Is it possible that the update is
overwrittenwith select before it executes?
Just some thoughts, as I said I know nothing of Npgsql.
BTW: Do you see the change after update in your DB if you look into it with another tool (e.g. psql)?
