Changing the line above to read:
res = PQexecParams( m_db, "SELECT * FROM abcatfmt WHERE abf_type =
$1::smallint", 1, nullptr, paramValues, paramLengths, paramFormats, 1
);
results in:
$1 = L"ERROR: incorrect binary data format in bind parameter 1\n"
I am now at a complete loss.
How do I fix the code so it will run?
Thank you.
