Hi, There's a not so well known issue of "set search_path" and "server-prepared statement" usage. In short, it does not always work. See more details in [1].
There issue has reproduced once again recently (see [2], that explains that search_path is modified for a multi-tenant setup). Even though I wish that kind of details were handled at the backend level (see Tom's example in [1] when "create table" should invalidate the statement), we need to do something about that with existing PG versions. Otherwise it is another "never modify search_path" or "never use server-prepared" catch-22. Here's my question: why change in search_path does NOT generate ParameterStatus message from the backend? I thought I could capture ParameterStatus events, and use per-search_path cache at the JDBC level. However that does not seem to work. Here's what I get with 9.5rc1: simple execute, maxRows=0, fetchSize=0, flags=17 FE=> Parse(stmt=null,query="SET search_path TO "$user",public,schema2",oids={}) FE=> Bind(stmt=null,portal=null) FE=> Describe(portal=null) FE=> Execute(portal=null,limit=0) FE=> Sync <=BE ParseComplete [null] <=BE BindComplete [unnamed] <=BE NoData <=BE CommandStatus(SET) <=BE ReadyForQuery(I) Am I missing something?
