It's pretty much the same as any other operation on a PGconn: if there could be more than one thread touching the connection object concurrently, you'd be well advised to add some application-level locking. http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.2/static/libpq-threading.html The lack of any such locking inside libpq is partly historical, and partly because in many practical situations you'll need application-side locks anyway to protect application data structures associated with the connection. 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
