Hi everyone.
The ParameterStatus message is currently sent for a hard-wired set of
parameters (
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/protocol-flow.html#PROTOCOL-ASYNC
).
Just wanted to let you know that making this more flexible would be a great
help in driver implementation. Npgsql maintains its own view of the current
statement_timeout parameter for various reasons; as long as the standard
ADO.NET API is used to change the timeout everything is OK, but if the user
ever manually sets statement_timeout things can become quite messy. Being
able to subscribe to more parameter changes would help in this case. In the
very short term simply adding statement_timeout to the hard-wired set would
help me as well.
Thanks,
Shay
