The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 5483 Logged by: Pascal Van Puymbroeck Email address: p...@zenonpro.be PostgreSQL version: 8.3.5 and 8.3.8 Operating system: Centos 5.4 Description: PQescapeStringConn behaviour ?? Details:
Don't know whether this bug/behaviour is normal or fixed in newer versions. Didn't have the time to prepare a new installation just to test this. PQescapeStringConn is intended to facilitate the insertion of say a streetname with a single quote like " d'alembert ". Using this function on normal en special strings like " tëxt " (an e with two dots on, quite common in the dutch and french language) is no problem. However if the " ë " character is at the end of a string like the name of a country in dutch "Italië" this PQescapeStringConn function adds two spaces. so "België" becomes "België ". The error is set to 1 which indicates we can't trust the outcome. But I don't see why he has a problem with that character at the end of the string and not in the middle ! -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
