Re: Problems with protocol V3 after migration to latest driver

So
is "SELECT count(*) FROM XXX WHERE ? IS NULL OR animated=?" allowed in the spec or not?
is "SELECT date_trunc('day', m.created AT TIME ZONE INTERVAL ?) FROM message m" allowed or not?
Both work perfectly with V2 but not with V3.

So what is the correct JDBC type for oid? NUMERIC? I am using JBoss and java.lang.Object is mapped to VARBINARY and it works well with protocolVersion=V2 and compatible=7.1, jboss uses ResultSet.setBinaryStream()/getBinaryStream() for that. If I configure the mapping as java.lang.Object->JDBC NUMERIC, then setNull() inside JBoss will probably work fine, but JBoss will not be able to store array of bytes as NUMERIC. Any known workaround for that, apart of using V2 and using bytea?

As for server logs from the problem 1, they are not enabled on production server. Once I have some spare time, I'll try to simulate it on development server.

Actually, I mis-spoke, you can have parameters in the where clause.
