PQputCopyData and Rollback/Commit

Hi All.

I am using PQputCopyData function to send data to server one row at a time. When I am done with the data then I call
PQputCopyEnd.

I want to do rollback when any error occurs. Please help me how to achieve rollback using these functions.


Thanks,
Sandeep Khandelwal

As the documentation for PQputCopyEnd() says, you can pass a non-NULL
second argument to force the copy to fail.  You could also use PQexec()
to execute a BEGIN before the copy and a COMMIT or ROLLBACK after the
copy.
