I don't consider that "simple" myself :). But I'm definitely not an advanced PostgreSQL user!Would still appreciate a more fleshed out demo, if anyone is kind enough to provide it. Thanks, --DD
Also, I'm still not sure how to write that WHERE clause, with the $1 being an array of a composite type.
And since this is a binary bind, what kind of OIDs to use. Your example seems to generate a type on-the-fly for example David.
Will we need to create custom types just so we have OIDs we can use to assemble the bytes of the array-of-composite bind?
I believe there's an implicit ROW type per table created. Are there also implicit types for composite PKs and/or UNIQUE constraints?
Lots of questions...
