We send/receive the server's array format. This is not quite a C array, and is definitely not a java array. It's a packed postgres specific (network byte order) format. It is much faster and tighter than text in some cases however. We present an interface to copy C arrays to postgres style formats such as: PGarray a; PQgetf(res, tuple_num, "%int4[]", field_num, &a); This will 'pop' a result out of your result that presents the array internals (which you could then loop). merlin -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
