Hello all,
when I try to put a numeric 'timestamp' like 19980528112607 into an
int8-datatype I get the notice 'NOTICE: Integer input '19980528112607'
is out of range; promoted to float' and the value is put in the database
as 9223091508918288644.
It doesn't matter if I change the value: it will allways be the magical
value 9223091508918288644.
When I use the float8-datatype it all goes well.
Is this a bug in PostgreSQL or has it something to do with
platform-specific limitations?
Thanks,
Jelle.
PostgreSQL: 6.4.2
