This is some messy in your code
MemoryContext oldContext = MemoryContextSwitchTo( outerContext );
MemoryContextSwitchTo( oldContext );
Unfortunately, your code is not well structured - it is hard to read it.
One hint - if you find an issue - try to reduce lines of your code which is
possible until you reproduce this issue or until you understand this issue.
The sequence of statements is a little bit obscure :)
initStringInfo( &query );
*/
if( cols.len > 0 )
{
initStringInfo(&cols);
} /*IF col.len>0*/
Instead
foreach( cell, candidates ) /* foreach cell in candidates */
{
int i;
/*elog (INFO, "Ingresando a foreach");*/
idxcd = (IndexCandidate*)lfirst( cell );
if (idxcd == NULL) {
elog( INFO, "idxcd IS NULL" );
continue; /* Or is that fatal enough to break instead? */
}
you can write
idxcd = (IndexCandidate *) linitial(candidates);
The problem in your example is fact so it is a mix of copy/paste fragments.
I wrote similar code, and almost everyone I know (when I started). But it
is not possible to fix this code - start from scratch. The code must be
readable (every time). And when I write code inside some complex
environment (like Postgres is), I write code in very small fragments, in
very small steps, and every time I try to compile, restart and check the
result. Then I know what line, or what statement is the problem.
