One issue is that Pavel want to generate valid SQL statement using %v format. Boolean values are printed as t or f, so the unquoted values are not valid syntax. If we only use output functions, boolean values should be written as 't' or 'f' (single-quoted), Only numeric values can be unquoted on %v. -- Itagaki Takahiro -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
