For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v45 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v44 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v44 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to

assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to

* [PATCH v44 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v44 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v45 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v45 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v46 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v46 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v46 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v49 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v49 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v49 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v49 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v48 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v48 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v46 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v46 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v46 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v46 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v49 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v49 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v49 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v49 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v48 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v48 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v46 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v46 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

Okay. I will try to create one sample program and send it to you sometime
next week. In the meantime, I am listing down all the methods we are
consuming from libpq.

PQconnectdbParams
PQstatus
PQerrorMessage
PQpingParams
PQfinish
PQresultStatus
PQclear
PQsetSingleRowMode
PQntuples
PQnfields
PQftype
PQgetvalue
PQgetlength
PQgetisnull

PQsendPrepare
PQsendQueryPrepared
PQgetResult
PQconsumeInput
PQisBusy
PQsetnonblocking
PQflush
PQsocket
PQtransactionStatus
PQresultErrorField

Regards,
Rajesh
