The pointers would be dangling once you do PQclear. Now, if the MyObject has gone out of scope and been destroyed, which this coding suggests would happen, then that shouldn't matter ... but maybe the pointers got copied to somewhere longer-lived? Anyway, there's nothing visibly wrong with what you showed us, so the problem is somewhere else. 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
