Re: DataType OID for PQexecParams-call in libpq

hello

please take a look at the documentation at
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.4/static/libpq-exec.html
at the point "PQftype", where it's said:
" The OIDs of the built-in data types are defined in the file
src/include/catalog/pg_type.h in the source tree."

The point is, that geeks are not necessarily the outcasts
society often believes they are. The fact is that society
isn't cool enough to be included in our activities.
