From:
Operating system: debian
PHP version: 5.3.2
Package: PostgreSQL related
Bug Type: Feature/Change Request
Bug description:pg_escape_string() mishandles \
Description:
------------
My understanding of pg_escape_string() is that it will escape only those
characters that require escaping by the postgresql database.
Using standard_conforming_strings=on in postgres (8.2.4) a "\" (backslash)
character is just a backslash character, not a special character requiring
escaping. Therefore, I do not think pg_escape_string('\') should return
'\\' but rather '\'.
The only way I can see to enter a single backslash character is to use the
E('\\') syntax but I should not have do so.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
print pg_escape_string(' \ ');
?>
Expected result:
----------------
should return ' \ '
Actual result:
--------------
returns ' \\ '
