I should apologize for being rather harsh about embedded SQL for PostgreSQL.
To be fair, it does function and it certainly isn't trivial to implement. I am sure that those who have worked on this project have invested very many hours of blood, sweat and tears making it work. I actually spent a great deal of effort trying to write some tools using the PostgreSQL version of ECPG, and found fatal flaws that threw away a couple weeks of work. I think that is why my responses were so overwhelmingly negative. Here is what I would like to see (consider a gentle suggestion): A reentrant version of ECPG that uses SQLCA and SQLDA like Oracle or Rdb or DB/2 or any of the professional database systems. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
