I found also the debug log of ESQL/C i.e. how to enable it with ECPGdebug(int on, FILE *stream); The resulting log is really fine for debugging our code: [26301]: ECPGdebug: set to 1 [26301]: ECPGconnect: opening database newsisis on localhost port 5432 for user sisis [26301]: prepare_common on line 49: name s_statename; query: "SELECT myint, mychar, mydate, myvchar, myblob FROM mytypes;" [26301]: ecpg_execute on line 52: query: declare c_statename cursor for SELECT myint, mychar, mydate, myvchar, myblob FROM mytypes;; with 0 parameter(s) on connection newsisis [26301]: ecpg_execute on line 52: using PQexec [26301]: ecpg_process_output on line 52: OK: DECLARE CURSOR [26301]: ecpg_execute on line 60: query: fetch in c_statename; with 0 parameter(s) on connection newsisis [26301]: ecpg_execute on line 60: using PQexec [26301]: ecpg_process_output on line 60: correctly got 1 tuples with 5 fields [26301]: ecpg_get_data on line 60: RESULT: 1 offset: 4; array: no [26301]: ecpg_get_data on line 60: RESULT: char offset: 8; array: no [26301]: ecpg_get_data on line 60: RESULT: 08.05.1945 offset: 8; array: no [26301]: ecpg_get_data on line 60: RESULT: освобождение offset: 81; array: no ... What is missing are timestamps in enough precision. I will add this to the code in postgresql-11.4/src/interfaces/ecpg/ecpglib/misc.c where the implementation of ecpg_log() is.
