Hi, I'm wondering how safe it is to pass an uninitialized conn to PQfinish.... I have set a SIGALRM handler that terminates my daemon and closes connection to Postgres if time-out happens. However, Im setting the alarm few times before the connection to Postgres was established... which means that conn pointer in not initialized yet and it will be passed to PQfinish in my SIGALRM handler. Im not sure how Postgres will handle that.... so far that doesnt seem to be causing any errors but Im not sure what's actually happening behind the scenes... Any input would be appreciated.
