Instead they are passed to a notice handling function, and + execution continues normally after the handler returns. The default + notice handling function prints the message on + <code class="filename">stderr</code>, but the application can override this + behavior by supplying its own handling function. + </p><p> + For historical reasons, there are two levels of notice handling, called + the notice receiver and notice processor. The default behavior is for + the notice receiver to format the notice and pass a string to the notice + processor for printing. However, an application that chooses to provide + its own notice receiver will typically ignore the notice processor + layer and just do all the work in the notice receiver. + </p><p> + The function <code class="function" id="LIBPQ-PQSETNOTICERECEIVER">PQsetNoticeReceiver</code> + <a id="id-1.7.3.20.5.2" class="indexterm"></a> + <a id="id-1.7.3.20.5.3" class="indexterm"></a> sets or + examines the current notice receiver for a connection object. + Similarly, <code class="function" id="LIBPQ-PQSETNOTICEPROCESSOR">PQsetNoticeProcessor</code> + <a id="id-1.7.3.20.5.5" class="indexterm"></a> + <a id="id-1.7.3.20.5.6" class="indexterm"></a> sets or + examines the current notice processor. + +</p><pre class="synopsis"> +typedef void (*PQnoticeReceiver) (void *arg, const PGresult *res); + +PQnoticeReceiver +PQsetNoticeReceiver(PGconn *conn, + PQnoticeReceiver proc, + void *arg); + +typedef void (*PQnoticeProcessor) (void *arg, const char *message); + +PQnoticeProcessor +PQsetNoticeProcessor(PGconn *conn, + PQnoticeProcessor proc, + void *arg); +</pre><p> + + Each of these functions returns the previous notice receiver or + processor function pointer, and sets the new value. If you supply a + null function pointer, no action is taken, but the current pointer is + returned. + </p><p> + When a notice or warning message is received from the server, or + generated internally by <span class="application">libpq</span>, the notice + receiver function is called. It is passed the message in the form of + a <code class="symbol">PGRES_NONFATAL_ERROR</code> + <code class="structname">PGresult</code>. (This allows the receiver to extract + individual fields using <a class="xref" href="libpq-exec.html#LIBPQ-PQRESULTERRORFIELD"><code class="function">PQresultErrorField</code></a>, or obtain a + complete preformatted message using <a class="xref" href="libpq-exec.html#LIBPQ-PQRESULTERRORMESSAGE"><code class="function">PQresultErrorMessage</code></a> + or <a class="xref" href="libpq-exec.html#LIBPQ-PQRESULTVERBOSEERRORMESSAGE"><code class="function">PQresultVerboseErrorMessage</code></a>.)
