Re: OOO and postgres

Per the error message, you need to enclose array values in braces. For example, something like:
INSERT into "Bladetypes" ("ID", "type"), values ('1', '{"Knife"}');

Hi guys

I am using the postgres driver for OOO and just ran into the following
error:

Error code: 1

pq_driver: [PGRES_FATAL_ERROR]ERROR: array value must start with "{" or
dimension information
LINE 1: ...O "public"."Bladetypes" ( "ID","type") VALUES ( '1','Knife')
^
(caused by statement 'INSERT INTO "public"."Bladetypes" ( "ID","type")
VALUES ( '1','Knife')')

the table looks like this:

CREATE TABLE "Bladetypes"
(
"ID" integer NOT NULL,
"type" character varying[] NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT "Bladetypes_pkey" PRIMARY KEY ("ID")
)

ALTER TABLE "Bladetypes" ADD COLUMN "ID" integer;
ALTER TABLE "Bladetypes" ALTER COLUMN "ID" SET NOT NULL;

ALTER TABLE "Bladetypes" ADD COLUMN "type" character varying[];
ALTER TABLE "Bladetypes" ALTER COLUMN "type" SET NOT NULL;

is this for this list?

Thanks

Bernhard
