Обсуждение: Listen/Notify payload and interfaces
This one is for the maintainers of the various postgresql interfaces: With the new listen/notify implementation we can send a payload along with the notification. This has been in the protocol already since years and there is no change needed for libpq. However we need to adapt the various interfaces to allow a payload to be sent and received. A notification is sent via SQL: http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/sql-notify.html and received via the libpq call PQnotifies: http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/libpq-notify.html Joachim

DBD::Pg has been ready since 2008, if you need something to test with. :)
Usage is:
while (my $notify = $dbh->pg_notifies) { my ($name, $pid, $payload) = @$notify; print qq{I received notice "$name" from
PID$pid, payload was "$payload"\n};
}
Not sure what you mean by adapting interfaces to send payloads, I imagine
most if not all simply require a NOTIFY to be sent via PQexec.

Is the payload decoded to utf8 when pg_enable_utf8 is true?
Best,

So stick to ASCII for the moment. I'm sure the great DBD::Pg utf-8 overhaul (where we get rid of the pg_enable_utf8 hack) will encompass payloads as well. - -- Greg Sabino Mullane greg@turnstep.com End Point Corporation http://www.endpoint.com/ PGP Key: 0x14964AC8 201002181600 http://biglumber.com/x/web?pk=2529DF6AB8F79407E94445B4BC9B906714964AC8 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iEYEAREDAAYFAkt9qn4ACgkQvJuQZxSWSsiM0ACgnjJAfKJOfIFzHBvBmXI3j/ZT lEMAoIV6KwN186oOKqMYa6IQjYPHprzC =AwK+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
