And could you clarify on the first part of this?
From the quote I poste it sounds like this is available only in
command-line
tools. And if someone will use it inside the program it will be ignored.
The options you pass from the client via the "options" attribute are
interpreted by *the server* as command-line options. They are not options
that control libpq itself.
Can you give an example or try to explain it?
What do you mean by "interpreted by the server as command-line options"?
Does this mean I can just ignore this parameter inside my C{++} program?
Or I can set some options and pass it to the server thru this parameter?
I can kinda see the confusion here but I'm not sure how to write it more
clearly without being excessively verbose. I haven't seen this particular
confusion before so I'd say the wording is reasonable and the mailing lists
are doing their job of providing a forum for providing clarity.
Well for someone who is just started with PostgreSQL and C interface it is
confusing.
Maybe this will help:

Thank you.
