I recently installed the latest non-beta version 8.2 of postgresql.
I get the following warning and hint in the server status GUI:
WARNING: nonstandard use of \\ in a string literal at characters 64
HINT: Use the excape string syntax for backslashes, e.g, E’\\’.
The “raw” string I want to write is:
[\x09-\x0A\x0D\x20-\x2F\x3A-\x40\x5B-\x60\x7B-\x7E]MI[\x09-\x0A\x0D\x20-\x2F\x3A-\x40\x5B-\x60\x7B-\x7E]
After escaping, I write: _ 64th
/
[\\x09-\\x0A\\x0D\\x20-\\x2F\\x3A-\\x40\\x5B-\\x60\\x7B-\\x7E]MI[\\x09-\\x0A\\x0D\\x20-\\x2F\\x3A-\\x40\\x5B-\\x60\\x7B-\\x7E]
Assuming the count starts at 0, the character at position 64 is the [ character.
I’ve read an earlier post that tells of how to SUPRESS the warning. I want to eliminate the warning.
TIA
