That code doesn't look right: you need to make sure your 'to' is big
enough: at has to be at least (2*N)+1 where N is the input size. it
returns a size_t, not a char*, and you should be able to just sprintf
the 'to' into your query, not copy the chars in a loop. see the
following fragment:
#define ARGSZ 64
char my_bytea[ARGSZ];
char escaped_bytea[(2*ARGSZ)+1];
int error;
size_t nbytes;
nbytes = PQescapeStringConn (conn, escaped_bytea, my_bytea,
sizeof(my_bytea), &error);
if(error != 0)
// handle error
sprintf(querybuf, "insert into foo(bytea_col) values (E'%s')", escaped_bytea);
like I said earlier, this is just about the absolute worst way to
transfer a bytea to the server. I had to look up the docs for
PQescapeStringConn -- I've never once used it my entire life (or it's
even more evil cousin, PQescapeString).
