It would be quicker still to ignore your email altogether, but I'm guessing you're not going to recommend that I take that approach.
Sure not !
I did look briefly at whether I could also answer the question while I was replying, but found that I wasn't really sure what you were asking (which may be why no one else responded either).
I've got one useful respond before this post in general@.
To the best of my ability to determine what you were actually asking, it was something along the lines of "What will happen if I tell libpq that a parameter is a bigint when the server is expecting an int?". I don't happen to know the answer to that question without writing a 25-line program, compiling it, and testing it. Which wouldn't be very hard, but on the other hand it wouldn't be very hard for you to do it either. Best guess without testing? It'll work if the value is within the range that can be represented by an int and throw an error otherwise.
Yes, I've already investigated it, compiled and tested. The first line of my initial post says: "To be assured and just for calmness.". :-)
