BUG #1178: PQexecPrepared - PostgreSQL 7.4.1 - Mailing list pgsql-bugs

The following bug has been logged online:

Bug reference:      1178
Logged by:          Theo Kramer

PostgreSQL version: 7.4

Operating system:   Redhat Linux 9

Description:        PQexecPrepared - PostgreSQL 7.4.1

Details:

I am having a problem with PQexecPrepared() as follows (derived from
testlibpq3.c)

PQexec(conn,
   "PREPARE S0000123_000 (text) AS SELECT * from test1 WHERE t = $1");

When invoking PQexecPrepared() I get the following message from the backend

ERROR:  prepared statement "S0000123_0000" does not exist

Yet if I use

PQexec(conn, "EXECUTE S0000123_0000 ('ho there')");

instead of PQexecPrepared() then all works perfectly.

Sounds like a bug to me...?
