Session metadata IMHO. If there are(would be) database state variables we should introduce another command for them. For example I don't think QUERY_TIMEOUT is such a variable. As I mentioned many times we can set QUERY_TIMEOUT before each query. If the overhead is an issue we can keep track of the varaible and reduce the command calls to minimum easily. regards, Hiroshi Inoue ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
