of ecpg. pgtypeslib maps SQL data types to data types within the C host
program and most of the additional functions of the <SPAN

>Informix</SPAN
> compatibility
mode allow you to operate on those C host program types. Note however that
the extent of the compatibility is limited. It does not try to copy <SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>Informix</SPAN
>
behaviour; it allows you to do more or less the same operations and gives
you functions that have the same name and the same basic behavior but it is
no drop-in replacement if you are using <SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>Informix</SPAN
> at the moment. Moreover,
some of the data types are different. For example,
<SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>PostgreSQL's</SPAN
> datetime and interval types do not
know about ranges like for example <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>YEAR TO MINUTE</TT
> so you won't
find support in ecpg for that either.
