Subject: Clarification suggestion for 46.4 chapter.
Date: Mon, 5 Dec 2011 14:53:22 +0300
Message-ID: <CAAfz9KN4PEf0QodA_F37M6RifK2sMXR8bjAgUqGuNKqOdVchXw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hey,
The section 46.4 describes the base data types used in messages.
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/protocol-message-types.html
According to section 46.5
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/protocol-message-formats.html
there are cases when Int32 can be negative (e.g. see DataRow(B) message
description.)
Thus, I would like to suggest to change the description of Int(i)
from
"An n-bit integer in network byte order ..."
to
"An n-bit signed integer in network byte order ..."
