-- name: check-selection
SELECT ? AS p;

SQL/TEST> (check-selection t)
(("true"))

Types are not preserved across SELECT queries, it seems. I think this is an issue on the Postmodern side as I have been able to reproduce it with pomo:query.

I have been able to work around this via explicit casting.

-- name: check-selection
SELECT ?::boolean AS p;

SQL/TEST> (check-selection t)
((T))
