problem with PQExecParams

Hi,

Problem Description:

We need to insert binary data to tables and retrieve the
Same-(data type is bytea).
We are using PQExecParams for inserting and retrieving
Data.
Table contains other than binary data also.

When we tried to fetch the integer data (type-int2)
We are not able to get anything from that result set(alws value is zero).but Pqexec returns the desired value

Questions:

1)how can we get the integer value from the result set which is got from executing PQexecParams;
(the sample code is given below)

2)if it's not possible then how can we get the BINARY values using
Pqexec

Here is the code snapshot:

string query="select intval from dummy where intval=7;";

res1=PQexecParams(conn,query.c_str(),0,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,1);
for(unsigned char i=0;i<4;i++)
{
printf("%d \n",(PQgetvalue(res1,0,0)[i]));
//prints 0000 here
}

cout<<"value from pqexec params ****"<<atoi(PQgetvalue(res1,0,0))<<endl; //prints 0 here

cout<<"using pqexec ***"<<endl;
res1=PQexec(conn,"select intval from dummy where intval=7;");//prints 7 below.
cout<<"value from pqexec params ****"<<atoi(PQgetvalue(res1,0,0))<<endl;

Prasanna.

This doesn't belong on pgsql-hackers, which is for discussing
development of PostgreSQL itself. Please post to one of the other
lists; if you're not sure which one then pgsql-general is usually
a good place.
