Hi *,
I wanted to ask, if there is a method to determine the oid of a certain type
using the C backend interface? I need to get access to a specific type for an
IAM and therefore i want to construct an IndexTuple using the specified
methods. However, I need the OID of the specific type for it. I considered
writing some auxiliary function that returns the OID of the type using plpgsql.
This works fine. However, I thought about something that I can use directly in
C (server side) to get the oid, or do I have to set up a query to the database?
Querying is currently the way I go here. However, it does not feel so right, to
return the OID for the type I want to use, using a query. I hope, that there is
some predefined function that I haven't found yet to determine the OID of some
type (or relation etc).
Best regards,
Carsten Kropf
