Please answer these questions before submitting your issue. Thanks!

  1. What version of Go are you using (go version)?
    1.7

  2. What operating system and processor architecture are you using (go env)?
    All

  3. What did you do?

    db := ...connect to mysql db
    cursor, err := db.Query("SELECT * FROM user WHERE firstName IN (?)",
    []string{"Bob", "Matt", "Sam"})

    if err != nil { ////// Errored
    fmt.Println(err)
    return
    }
    .....

  4. What did you expect to see?
    Comparing to PHP, I expected the following query's result:
    SELECT * FROM user WHERE firstName IN ('Bob', 'Matt', 'Sam')

  5. What did you see instead?
    sql: converting Exec argument #0's type: unsupported type []int, a slice

Which database(s) support this at at the wire level? Where you send SQL with a single placeholder and an array type of values comes later?

Postgresql is the main one I'm aware of, as it has native array types. MS SQL server can also support custom types that can included table valued types.

@kardianos Postgres and SQL Server (assuming the array is a custom table-valued type) would each treat that slice/array as a single scalar value. In the example given, firstName would have to be the array of names, not one of the names in the array. Postgres' array type, however, would allow ANY to match, assuming that the value was provided as an array (e.g. db.Query("SELECT * FROM user WHERE firstName = ANY (?)", pg.Array([]string{"Bob", "Matt", "Sam"})).

gopherbot pushed a commit that referenced this issue May 18, 2017
Previously all arguments were passed through driver.IsValid.
This checked arguments against a few fundamental go types and
prevented others from being passed in as arguments.

The new interface driver.NamedValueChecker may be implemented
by both driver.Stmt and driver.Conn. This allows
this new interface to completely supersede the
driver.ColumnConverter interface as it can be used for
checking arguments known to a prepared statement and
arbitrary query arguments. The NamedValueChecker may be
skipped with driver.ErrSkip after all special cases are
exhausted to use the default argument converter.

In addition if driver.ErrRemoveArgument is returned
the argument will not be passed to the query at all,
useful for passing in driver specific per-query options.

Add a canonical Out argument wrapper to be passed
to OUTPUT parameters. This will unify checks that need to
be written in the NameValueChecker.

The statement number check is also moved to the argument
converter so the NamedValueChecker may remove arguments
passed to the query.

@snadrus I think this is actually fixed. go1.9 now supports custom import types so it is now up to drivers to implement. Can you confirm?
