Description-en: parameterized queries libpq extension - development
libpqtypes is a libpq extension that offers a new way of handling
parameterized queries and getting result field values. Both putting
parameters and getting values use a printf/scanf style interface, with
consistent specifiers for both.
.
* Full support for binary and text format. (parameter and result)
* Full support for composites, arrays and composite arrays. (binary format
only)
* printf style interface to libpq's binary parameterized API. (PQputf)
* scanf style interface for getting values: PQgetvalue extension. (PQgetf)
* Ability to register user-defined types, aliases and data type sub-classes
for use with printf style interfaces: ex. "%mytype".
* Per-thread global error message. (PQgeterror)
* Online docs as well as man pages.
.
This package contains the headers and manpages.
