  1. operator error

    the query is: update process_order set processresult = 't'::bool and processmsg = '328024' where oid = 25647;
    
    it causes the backend to core dump.
    
    when I don't cast it to 't'::bool, I get this:
    
      ERROR:  left-hand side of AND is type 'unknown', not bool
    
    very weird.  I wouldn't expect that error when doing an update like
    this.
    
    okay, I just realized that i'm using "and" instead of a comma to join
    the list of updated value pairs, doh!
    
    after banging by head on a few random objects..
