Just replacing PQexec() with PQsendQuery() is pretty straightforward, we could put that replacement in a file in port/win32. Replacing PQconnectdb() is more complicated because you need to handle connection timeout. I suggest that we only add the replacement for PQexec(), and live with the situation for PQconnectdb(), that covers 99% of the scenarios anyway. -- Heikki Linnakangas EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
