Anyone working on the libpq interface to prepared statements?
We could really use that for DBD::Pg. Alternatively, if someone
knows a trick to prepare an INSERT statement without knowing
the data types, that would be neat too. For example:
CREATE TABLE foobar(a INTEGER);
These don't work:
PREPARE st(text) AS INSERT INTO foobar(a) VALUES ($1);
PREPARE st(unknown) AS INSERT INTO foobar(a) VALUES ($1);
PREPARE st(unknown) AS INSERT INTO foobar(a) VALUES ($1::unknown);
(Yes, I know st(int) works, but DBD::Pg is not going to become a
SQL parser, that's the backend's job, so we need a way to force
unknown, or a way to return the data types back to us when we
prepare a statement. The latter is on the 8.0 todo list, but have
not seen any progress onit)
