Bug reference: 1267
Logged by: Colin Chapman
Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
PostgreSQL version: 8.0 Beta
Operating system: fedora linux
Description: Suggest TEXTOID parameters be treated like UNKNOWNOID
Details:
postgresql-8.0.0beta2
JSP likes to transfer data in parameters as text. When putting values into
a int column you get exception
this can be demonstrated by.
create table d ( numb int );
insert into d values ( '1' );
insert into d values ( '2'::text );
drop table d;

TIP 9: the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your
joining column's datatypes do not match
