Hi to all,
As explained in a previous mail today, I'm porting an Informix based
application to PostgreSQL. Now this work is nearly done, but there is
still a problem with the character ' in strings. I'm using 'ecpg' for
develop. Whenever a ' appears in a string that should be inserted into the
database, it crashes with the error 'too many arguments in line'. I found
out that the ' is interpreted as 'end of string'. How's that possible? I'm
using normal variables in the application. Is there a workaround possible?
However. I know I can precede every ' with a backslash, but that would make
my code completely incompatible to the still supported Informix. Can I
change the delimiter for strings in some way?
Some data: PostgreSQL 6.5.1 Linux 2.2.7 (SuSE 6.1) Intel Pentium egcs-2.91.66
