Обсуждение: array_in: '{}}'::text[]

Is there a reason the array_in parser accepts additional closing braces
at the end?

oocms=# SELECT '{}}'::text[];text
------{}
(1 запись)

Thanks

In fact it seems to accept everything after the closing brace matching
the first opening brace.

Hmmm, I was *about* to say that this is fixed in cvs (and indeed, the 
array_in parser is significantly tightened up compared to previous 
releases), but unfortunately, there is still work to be done :(

regression=# SELECT '{}}'::text[]; text
------ {}
(1 row)

regression=# select version();                                                       version

Look for a fix soon, at a cvs repository near you....
