Dollar quoted string token
Applies to ✅ Open Source Edition ✅ Express Edition ✅ Professional Edition ✅ Enterprise Edition
Occasionally, when using the SQLDialect.POSTGRES dialect, jOOQ renders dollar quoted string literals, in particular for anonymous blocks:
DO $$ BEGIN .. END; $$
The point of these string literals is to avoid having to escape all ' characters in procedural content, or elsewhere.
Sometimes, the $$ token may conflict with string contents, however, such as an identifier. In that case, users can override the delimiter token between the $$ and provide their own, e.g. $token$.
Example configuration
Settings settings = new Settings()
.withRenderDollarQuotedStringToken("token");
