Greetings all,
I just wanted to send you the attached patch which adds the
PQescapeString interface to the Pg module.
Earlier today, I forwarded this patch to Edmund Mergl
<e {dot} mergl {at} bawue {dot} de>, he suggested that
I should forward this patch to the appropriate list, as he no
longer maintains this module. I assume he meant this list,
as I couldn't google another.
I also noticed that last discussions pertaining to this Perl
interfaces is years old. So, it may just be the case that it
might be a deprecated interface (hopefully I'm wrong).
Is there active maintenance of this module?
Two files that are touched are Pg.xs, which does the work, and
Pg.pm for the copy/paste documentation for PQescapeString()
function from PostgreSQL pdf doc.
I am not a XS expert, so I'd appreciate if you reviewed the patch
and if you find anything wrong you would let me know.
Hopefully you'll accept this change/patch :-)
Thanks,
--patrick

Unfortunately, you don't tell us exactly which module you mean.
There is the very actively maintained DBD::Pg module, and the
somewhat maintained DBD::PgPP module. There are also some
other older ones still floating around with a "Pg" in the name
- - the fact that you found Edmund Mergl's name suggests that
whatever you have, it is probably very old.
DBD::Pg can be found here:
http://search.cpan.org/~dbdpg/
It has its own quoting of variables through the $dbh->quote()
method. If you are trying to connect to Postgres via Perl,
this is probably your best bet. Hope that helps.

My bad. I should've included the link on CPAN (as you did):
http://search.cpan.org/~mergl/pgsql_perl5-1.9.0/
And yes, it apparently is very old as it is dated '04 Apr 2000'.
The module just worked for my needs, so I started using it.
It only lacked access to PQescapeString or similar. Hence,
the patch.

Might look at this module as my needs grow.
