I spun an ALPHA copy of DBD::Pg. So much has changed in there that I am
sure something is broken for someone; therefore, I think we should let
people hammer on it for a few days before making an official release.
I put the alpha up here:
http://www.remotelinux.com/rlippan/DBD-Pg-1.30_1.tar.gz
And for anyone who is interested here is the change log:
- $dbh->prepare() rewrites the SQL statement into an internal for striping out comments and whitespace, and if
PostgreSQL> 7.3 takes
the stripped statement and passes that to postgress' PREPARE statement, then rewrites the statement as 'EXECUTE
"DBD::PG::cached_queryn" ($1, $2, ... $n, $n+1)' for DBD::Pg's execute. -- Currently
disabled until PREPARE works a little better - Allows the use of :n and :foo bind params. So: (SELECT * FROM foo
where 1 = :this and 2 = :that) will now work. - Complains on execute when unbound bind params are submitted
(instead
of defaulting to NULL) - Switched over to use driver.xst. - pg_error() only removes \n's don't truncate message
onfirst \n - fixed statement scan problem where the preparse of "SELECT foo[3:33] from bar" was scanning :33 as
aplaceholder - moved the quoting of bind values out of execute() and into bind -- as there is no need to requote
thevalue every time execute is called. - :veryverylongplaceholdername == Long walk. Sort pier -- fixed. -
quote()is now in C and uses same code as bind_param. - quoting and dequoting now use libpq quoting functions where
available (I still need to take the libpq functions swiped out of quote.c and
move it into libpqswip.c with license info &c., and switch ifndefs to
ifdefs) - bind_param() will convert from 1,0 to TRUE/FALSE when pg_type is PGBOOLOID. - fixed many heap buffer
overruns.
