[fpc-pascal] no array support in sqldb/sqldbrestbridge?

llo,

since I'm going to need arrays in a postgresql database to expose via a 
rest api, I did a simple test with sqldbrestbridge.

I created a simple table:

create table prueba (x integer not null, y integer[]);
insert into prueba values (1, '{2,3}');



then I exposed it with sqlrestdb:

FDisp:=TSQLDBRestDispatcher.Create(Self)
FDisp.ExposeDatabase('postgresql','host','database','user','password');
FDisp.Active:=true;


and when I browse the database I only see the x field:


{
   "metaData" : {
     "fields" : [
       {
         "name" : "x",
         "type" : "int"
       }
     ]
   },
   "data" : [
     {
       "x" : 1
     }
   ]
}



So, is there no array field support in sqldb and/or in sqldbrestbridge?

I dropped a TSQLQuery on a form and I could define both fields, but "y" 
was just a plain TField (i.e. it was not mapped to an array field, in 
fact I could not find definitions of array fields in DB.pas, apart from 
the ftArray constant in TFieldType).


Bye
