.SH NAME
PQinitTypes \- Initializes libpqtypes with the libpq event system.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
\fB#include <libpqtypes.h>
.br
.sp
int PQinitTypes(PGconn *conn);
.br
int PQclearTypes(PGconn *\fIconn\fP);
\fP
.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
libpqtypes makes use of the libpq Event System.  Before using
libpqtypes, you must initialize libpqtypes as a libpq EventProc.
The PQinitTypes function takes a PGconn that libpqtypes will be initialized
with; each PGconn requires its own initialization.

PQclearTypes removes all registered types from the given PGconn.  A good use
for this is after a PQresetXXX call when it might be desired to re-register
all types that may have gone stale.
.SH RETURN VALUE
.LP
PQinitTypes and PQclearTypes return zero if it fails and non-zero if it succeeds.
