Interesting. It looks like PostgreSQL is conforming to the
specification (unlike Microsoft SQL or SQL Anywhere). However, it does
not help me with the underlying problem and that is "How do I get the
fractional part of a TIME field via ODBC?".
I have tried SQL_C_TYPE_TIMSTAMP, SQL_C_TYPE_CHAR and
SQL_C_TYPE_DEFAULT. None of these return the fractional part of the
time field. I've also tries SQL_C_TYPE_BINARY and get an error
szSqlState = "07006", *pfNativeError = 14, *pcbErrorMsg = 43,
MessageText = "Received an unsupported type from Postgres."
So how can I get the fractional information?
Note that I do not have any control of the SQL statement. My code needs
to handle any statement and return all information about the query.
Cheers,
Scott
