You need to add a Sync message if you're going to wait for the Parse to come back (think of it as being like fflush). Usually, though, people don't wait for mere ParseComplete, but send additional messages before waiting; perhaps do a Describe, or proceed directly with execution. The idea is that if a step fails, the server will send an error and then skip any subsequent messages till Sync, so you can optimistically assume the Parse succeeds and do whatever you'd have done next, thus saving network round-trips. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
