I'm using 7.4b4 with domains, and am having a problem with selecting without
casting.
create domain test_domain as integer check( (value notnull) and (value >= 1) );
create table test_table( field_1 test_domain, field_2 integer );
insert into test_table values( 1, 1 );
insert into test_table values( '2', '2' );
select * from test_table where field_2 = '1';
select * from test_table where field_1 = '1'; -- fails
The last select fails with 'operator is not unique: test_domain = "unknown"'
The insert with quoted values works fine without casting.
The HINT indicates I need to cast, which works find with either '1'::integer or
'1'::test_domain. Is this the correct behavior? Do I have to cast every quoted
value? The values are quoted through the usage of DBD::Pg.
Thanks,
Rob
