This version has some deep changes, so testing is much appreciated. In
particular, both the do() and quote() methods have been rewritten.
In addition, the get_info() information has been greatly expanded.
Information I was not sure about is marked with a "## ??" in the Pg.pm
code - anyone familiar with the ODBC / ANSI standards, please take a look.
Here is the complete list of changes:
- Added $dbh->{pg_default_port} method [GSM]- Overhaul get_info data, add many more values [GSM]- Overhaul type_info
data(fixes CPAN bug #13806) [GSM]- Explicitly prevent any parsing of statements for placeholders unless they begin
with"SELECT", "INSERT", "UPDATE", or "DELETE" Suggested by (and fixes) CPAN bug #13608 [GSM]- Rewrite some of the
quotingfunctions, reduce dependence on libpq versions. [GSM]- Rewrite and optimize the do() method. Should be much
