The following documentation comment has been logged on the website: Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/15/datatype-binary.html Description:
I believe there is a documentation error in the example for "8.4.1 bytea Hex Format" (https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/datatype-binary.html#id-1.5.7.12.9). The example is `SELECT '\xDEADBEEF';` However, when I try that on my system [psql (13.9 (Ubuntu 13.9-1.pgdg20.04+1), server 13.10 (Ubuntu 13.10-1.pgdg20.04+1))], it works *but* the result is type `text` per `pg_typeof()`. I believe the example needs to be corrected with an explicit cast to `bytea`.
