My understanding of the original post is that DBD::Pg is sitting atop libpq and wants to keep doing so. So they're going to need some improvements to libpq to get at Parse-into-a-named-statement and Describe Statement. This is one of the things that didn't get done in the 7.4 cycle, and no one seems to have got round to it later either. But it's clearly a deficiency of libpq. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
