PQsendQueryParams

Function

PQsendQueryParams is used to submit a command and separate parameters to the server without waiting for the result.

Prototype

int PQsendQueryParams(PGconn *conn,
                      const char *command,
                      int nParams,
                      const Oid *paramTypes,
                      const char * const *paramValues,
                      const int *paramLengths,
                      const int *paramFormats,
                      int resultFormat);

Parameter

**Table 1** PQsendQueryParams parameters
Keyword	Parameter Description
conn	Points to the object pointer that contains the connection information.
command	Query string to be executed.
nParams	Parameter quantity.
paramTypes	Parameter type.
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

PQsendQueryParams is equivalent to PQsendQuery. The only difference is that query parameters can be specified separately from the query string. PQsendQueryParams parameters are handled in the same way as PQexecParams parameters. Like PQexecParams, PQsendQueryParams cannot work on connections using protocol v2.0 and it allows only one command in the query string.
