- Postgres driver.
- This driver was originaly written by Alex Shevlakov using dbf driver
- (PostgreSQL driver forked from DBF driver by Radim Blazek).
- DBF driver was not good starting point, so I (R. Blazek) have rewritten it again
- using ODBC, postgres driver and adding new code.
- Driver supports only some field types, other types are ignored and warning is printed
- by G_warning().
- FIELD TYPES:
- Field type code may change. See for example
- http://developer.postgresql.org/cvsweb.cgi/pgsql-server/src/include/catalog/pg_type.h
- Because of this, type codes must be read from server when database is opened.
- Check also for PostgreSQL data types for defining them in GRASS:
- /usr/include/pgsql/server/catalog/pg_type.h
- Supported types in ./globals.h:
- (http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/interactive/datatype.html)
- DB_C_TYPE_INT:
- bit, int2, smallint, int4, int, integer, int8, bigint, serial, oid
- DB_C_TYPE_DOUBLE:
- float4, real, float8, double precision, numeric, decimal
- DB_C_TYPE_STRING:
- character, char, character varying, varchar, text, bool, boolean
- DB_C_TYPE_DATETIME:
- date, time, timestamp
