Q1Domain Verified
In PL/pgSQL, what is the primary mechanism for handling errors that occur during the execution of a stored procedure?
Using `RAISE NOTICE` statements to log issues.
Employing `ASSERT` statements to validate critical conditions.
Defining an `EXCEPTION` block to catch and manage specific error conditions.
Implementing `CONTINUE` statements within loops.
Q2Domain Verified
When designing a PL/pgSQL function that modifies data, what is the recommended approach to ensure atomicity and prevent partial updates in the event of an error?
Execute each DML statement in a separate, independent transaction.
Use a `BEGIN ... EXCEPTION ... END` block to wrap the data modification statements and handle any errors by rolling back the transaction.
Explicitly commit the transaction at the end of each successful `INSERT` or `UPDATE` statement.
Rely on the implicit transaction management of PostgreSQL, assuming it will handle atomicity.
Q3Domain Verified
Consider a PL/pgSQL procedure that dynamically constructs and executes SQL statements using `EXECUTE`. What is the most secure and recommended method to prevent SQL injection vulnerabilities when passing parameters to the dynamic query?
Escaping special characters in user input using `quote_literal()` or `quote_ident()`.
Using the `format()` function with `%L` specifier for literal values.
Concatenating user-provided input directly into the SQL string.
Sanitizing user input by removing potentially harmful characters before concatenation.
