Is there a way do do it when I have some arbitrary query that returns a
result set?
In other words, I will be passed a SQL query. I don't want to have to
parse it myself.
Rather, I want to know (for the bound columns) if a column is nullable
or not.
Is the functionality available in [for example] libpq?
