Michael, does it look like you might have the time for this in the next
couple months? If not and no one else more familar/rofiecient with the
private API will have time, then I giuess I should dig in and try...
even if I need to ramp up to the server protocol to do it.
If someone has pointers to where the augmentaion code should be placed
(org.tgresql.jdbc3.Jdbc3ResultSetMetadata I presume), and also the
protocol (separate query to the server?, or append RETURNING clause to
the DML?).
Also I cant remember - is it true that when inserting multuple VALUES,
that only the first (or last) SEQUENCE can be retrived, or can I
populate a resultset using the RETURNING data from by the server?
Thanks again,
Ken
