Re: [postmodern-devel] How to remove trailing spaces?

Hi Slobodan,

Firstly, I very much doubt Postmodern will be faster for fixed-length fields. I doesn't special-case them at all, so they are sent in the exact same way as other strings. And even if they were, there is no reason they'd be faster -- the Postgres protocol null-terminates every string.

I meant that I thougth that postgresql could be faster with fixed lenght fields, not postmodern, sorry... :-D

But if you need fixed-width fields, you can probably add a initialize-instance :after method to your DAO class that sanitizes the strings.

Yes, I understand. And for "regular" select, I can cleanup vars by myself anyway. Thanks!
