Hello everyone,
After
SELECT * FROM s_skladnik WHERE kod IN (902,902)
kod character(3)
i get error message
ERROR: IN types character varying and integer cannot be matched
whitch is ok (ive read about this restriction in 8.2.x)
but why after
SELECT * FROM s_skladnik WHERE kod IN (902)
or
SELECT * FROM s_skladnik WHERE kod = 902
I dont get error but query gives me correct result ?

This inconsistency will be gone in 8.3:
regression=# select * from t1 where kod = 902;
ERROR: operator does not exist: character varying = integer
LINE 1: select * from t1 where kod = 902;
^
HINT: No operator matches the given name and argument type(s). You might need to add explicit type casts.
regression=#
