PQsendQueryPrepared

Function

PQsendQueryPrepared is used to send a request to execute a prepared statement with given parameters, without waiting for the result.

Prototype

int PQsendQueryPrepared(PGconn *conn,
                        const char *stmtName,
                        int nParams,
                        const char * const *paramValues,
                        const int *paramLengths,
                        const int *paramFormats,
                        int resultFormat);

Parameters

**Table 1** PQsendQueryPrepared parameters
Keyword	Parameter Description
conn	Points to the object pointer that contains the connection information.
stmtName	Name of stmt to be executed.
nParams	Parameter quantity.
paramValues	Parameter value.
paramLengths	Parameter length.
paramFormats	Parameter format.
resultFormat	Result format.

Return Value

int indicates the execution result. 1 indicates successful execution and 0 indicates an execution failure. The failure cause is stored in conn->errorMessage.

Precautions

PQsendQueryPrepared is similar to PQsendQueryParams, but the command to be executed is specified by naming a previously-prepared statement, instead of providing a query string. PQsendQueryPrepared parameters are handled in the same way as PQexecPrepared parameters. Like PQexecPrepared, PQsendQueryPrepared cannot work on connections using protocol 2.0.
