Thread: No function escape processing?

Is it intentional that the driver (7.3.4) doesn't do function escape
processing?

Eg:

  select * from mytable where {fn left(col_1, 1)} between 'A' and 'F'

results in:

    java.sql.SQLException: ERROR:  parser: parse error at or near "{"
      at org.postgresql.core.QueryExecutor.execute(QueryExecutor.java:131)

It looks like AbstractJdbc1Statement.replaceProcessing(String p_sql) only
escapes time/date literals and passes everything else directly through.

Thanks,

Intentional in the sense that no one has stepped up to the plate to add
support for other functions.  Feel free to submit a patch.

thanks,
