NAME

       PQparamSendQuery,  PQparamSendQueryPrepared  - Executes an asynchronous paramertized query
       using the parameters in a PGparam.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <libpqtypes.h>

       int PQparamSendQuery(PGconn *conn, PGparam *param,
                            const char *command, int resultFormat);
       int PQparamSendQueryPrepared(PGconn *conn, PGparam *param,
                                    const char *stmtName, int resultFormat);

DESCRIPTION

       The PQparamSendQuery() and PQparamSendQueryPrepared() functions  execute  an  asynchronous
       paramertized  query  using the parameters in a PGparam.  The only difference between these
       functions  is  that  PQparamSendQuery()  expects  a  parameterized  command  string  while
       PQparamSendQueryPrepared() expects a stmtName previously prepared via PQprepare().

       Both  functions take a param argument, which must contain the same number of parameters as
       either the command string or previously  prepared  stmtName.   Internally,  the  param  is
       transformed   into   parallel  arrays  that  are  supplied  to  a  PQsendQueryParams()  or
       PQsendQueryPrepared() call.

       The resultFormat argument indicates if text or binary results are desired; a value of zero
       or  one  respectively.   PQgetf  supports  both  text  and binary result formats, with the
       exclusion of arrays and composites which only support binary.

       After successfully calling PQparamSendQuery() or PQparamSendQueryPrepared(), call  libpq´s
       PQgetResult() one or more times to obtain the results.

RETURN VALUE

       On  success,  a  non-zero value is returned.  On error, zero is returned and PQgeterror(3)
       will contain an error message.

EXAMPLES

   Using PQparamSendQuery
       The example uses PQparamSendQuery() to execute a query using a PGparam.

              PGparam *param = PQparamCreate(conn);

              if(!PQputf(param, "%text %int4", "ACTIVE", CAT_CAR))
              {
                   fprintf(stderr, "PQputf: %s\n", PQgeterror());
              }
              else
              {
                   int success = PQparamSendQuery(conn, param,
                        "SELECT * FROM t WHERE status=$1 AND category=$2", 1);

                   if(!success)
                        fprintf(stderr, "PQparamSendQuery: %s\n", PQgeterror());
                   else
                        get_and_print_results(conn); /* calls PQgetResult() */
              }

              PQparamClear(param);

   Using PQparamSendQueryPrepared
       PQparamSendQueryPrepared()  is   behaves   identically   to   PQparamSendQuery(),   except
       PQparamSendQueryPrepared()  requires  that  a  statement  has been previously prepared via
       PQprepare().  Also, a stmtName is supplied rather than a parameterized command string.
