In the old protocol there used to be support for more then one error arriving, in which case they were concatenated. What is happening with that? > PQsetErrorVerbosity(conn, PQERRORS_TERSE/DEFAULT/VERBOSE) > > TERSE: single-line error (severity, primary text, and position only) Shouldn't the position be available as a separate field, so client programs can do their own highlighting or whatnot? > DEFAULT: above plus any detail, hint, or context fields (backwards compatible) > VERBOSE: all available data One more thing: It has always annoyed me that PQerrorMessage() returns the text with a trailing newline. Since we now redefined newlines to be paragraph breaks, should this be changed (in a backward-compatible fashion)? -- Peter Eisentraut [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
