One design issue is the new function names: extern char *pg_client_to_server(const char *s, int len); extern char
*pg_server_to_client(constchar *s, int len);
+ extern char *pg_any_to_server(const char *s, int len, int encoding);
+ extern char *pg_server_to_any(const char *s, int len, int encoding);
They don't contain any words related to "encoding" or "conversion".
Ishii-san, do you have comments? I guess you designed the area.
Please let me know if there are better alternatives.
