'execute immediate' problem

Hello list,

I've go a litlle test program, that should transfer data from one db to
another. It's just a quick hack to check if it would work at all.
----
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <err.h>

int
main(int argc, char *argv[])
{EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;char node_name[255];char node_type[255];char stmt[1024];char ins[1024];EXEC SQL END
DECLARESECTION;
 
EXEC SQL WHENEVER SQLERROR sqlprint;EXEC SQL WHENEVER NOT FOUND continue;
EXEC SQL CONNECT TO test1 AS src_link USER test;
EXEC SQL CONNECT TO test2 AS dst_link USER test;
sprintf(stmt, "SELECT node_name, node_type FROM node ORDER BY node_type");
EXEC SQL PREPARE node_p FROM :stmt;EXEC SQL AT src_link DECLARE node_c CURSOR FOR node_p;EXEC SQL AT src_link OPEN
node_c;
EXEC SQL WHENEVER SQLERROR sqlprint;EXEC SQL WHENEVER NOT FOUND goto _done;for (;;) {    EXEC SQL AT src_link FETCH
node_cINTO :node_name, :node_type;    sprintf(ins, "INSERT INTO node (node_name, node_type) VALUES ('%s', '%s')",
node_name, node_type);    printf("%s;\n", ins);    EXEC SQL AT dst_link EXECUTE IMMEDIATE :ins;}
 

_done:EXEC SQL AT src_link CLOSE node_c;EXEC SQL AT src_link FREE node_p;
EXEC SQL DISCONNECT dst_link;EXEC SQL DISCONNECT src_link;exit(0);
}
----

The problem is, the 'EXEC SQL AT dst_link EXECUTE IMMEDIATE :ins;'
doesn't seem to work. When I do a 'select * from node' on the test2
database it shows 0 rows. The 'debug' printf shows, that the :ins
statement is correct.

The node table in both db's have two columns, node_name and node_type.

I'm running PostgreSQL 7.3.5 on OpenBSD 3.5.

I think I'm missing something obvious. Any hints?

Regards,
Kamil Andrusz
