Database returns information from "integer" and "biging" fields as text (values represented as string which must be read via atoi()/atol()) - is there a way to retrieve such data as binary? Will not PostgreSQL suddenly start return information in binary format (while I will continue read it as text)?
I assume you mean using libpq.
0) yes, you can get it as binary. 1) no, it wont switch. 2) you get to specify what format the server will return info, when you use PQexecParams().
