Saving and restoring the previous noticeProcessor or noticeReceiver handler
function works, unless they actually made use of the "arg" pass-through
argument. For example, somewhere you have: PQsetNoticeProcessor(conn, myNoticeProc, &mydata);
And somewhere else you want to temporarily override the noticeProcessor: prevNoticeProc = PQsetNoticeProcessor(conn,
newNoticeProc,&newdata); /* ... Do something which makes a notice ... */
/* Restore previous notice processor */ PQsetNoticeProcessor(conn, prevNoticeProc, ????); /* Oops, lost the
previous"arg". */
Not exactly a huge API hole, but nevertheless...
